The University of Kansas School of Music is the recipient of a beautiful Schimmel grand piano donated by Janet Jeanes, the niece of Maxine Anton, in honor of her late aunt
Mrs. Maxine Anton, a long-time resident of Kansas, was a great supporter of the arts in Topeka, involved with numerous music activities. The gift of this Schimmel grand piano is done in memory of Mrs. Anton and her love for music. The piano will be used in piano pedagogy classes to develop teaching skills for students who come from all parts of the world to study music at KU.
