Coolidge Piano Concert

PLYMOUTH NOTCH, Vt. – In 2023, the Calvin Coolidge State Historic Site, located at 3780 Vermont Route 110A, embarked on a journey, through the generous philanthropy of Mimi Baird, to restore Grace Coolidge’s deteriorating White House piano. On Sept. 12, the piano will make a much-anticipated, feted return. Come listen to a piece of American history.
Rejoice Scherry, administrator of the Coolidge site, will present the uncovered story of the piano following two years of research. The piano’s Brattleboro-based restorer, Patrick Branstetter, will present the process of rebuilding the piano. Finally, Abigail Charbeneau, a longtime piano performer at the Coolidge site, and her friends will reveal the results of this multiyear project with an all-Schubert performance. This event is free.
