The 88 Key Society was introduced as a new gifting opportunity during the 2013 Hilton Head International Piano Competition.  It is limited to a maximum of 88 members, each of them “owning” one or more keys of the “Competition piano.”  

You may become a member of this exclusive society of supporters by purchasing one (or more) of the available 88 keys with a donation of $500 per key. Pick your individual notes and own your own keys.  

– Members are acknowledged in both the HHIPC and the Hilton Head Symphony Orchestra program books and on both websites.

– Society members’ names are also on display at all HHSO post-concert receptions and throughout the Competition week.

– Society members will have preferred seating for tickets purchased for the semi final and final rounds of the International Piano Competition.

–  Members may renew their membership in the 88 Key Society annually with a gift of  $500 for each of their keys. If a member decides to relinquish membership, keys will become available to other supporters.
