It read: "Thank you so much to all of our supporters for our 'Sponsor a Key' fundraiser.
"We have been delighted and touched by the response from the Holyrood community and would like to sincerely thank former pupils Jim Kerr and Charlie Burchill of Simple Minds, for a very significant donation.
"This has allowed us to get an instrument four or five times the quality we initially planned."
