The 1922 Steinway grand piano was long used by students at the Michigan School for the Blind, where Wonder, a child prodigy, studied in the mid-1960s. Wonder signed with Motown at age 11 and went on to become a singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist.
Museum spokeswoman Roberta Williams told The Courier-Journal the piano will be on loan indefinitely. It goes on display starting Oct. 11.
