Upon request by the student, the Music Chapel makes available for use, free of charge, a number of outstanding violins and bows, belonging to the Music Chapel or to private benefactors.
For exceptional instruments, the Music Chapel will require the borrower to pay 50 per cent of the insurance premium of the instrument. When used at revenue generating performances, 100 per cent of the insurance premium will be payable by the borrower. A confidential inventory will be made available to students of the violin section.

Violins & cellos
The Music Chapel plays a coordination role between our young soloists and private sponsors that lend us instruments. We then lend these instruments to our musicians, and we become surety for this loan.
Pianos
Because we believe it is important for our young musicians to be able to perform on any piano and to be able to adapt, we make pianos from different brands available for them.
In the former building, students in residence at the Music Chapel are housed in 20 studios equipped with a medium grand piano from different brands, so that they can practice in their soundproof room. They also have access to four working studios equipped with a Steinway, or a Yamaha piano. Moreover, young musicians have also at their disposal the piano from 1910 that belonged to Queen Elisabeth, and that was made especially for her.
The new building has two music rooms (two Yamaha pianos in one, and two Steinway piano in the other), and one concert hall equipped with a Steinway concert grand piano.
