MASON, Ohio, July 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Baldwin Piano & Organ Company (OTC

Connell from the Company's board of directors.  In a resignation letter, both 
directors expressed their support for the measures undertaken by Robert 
Jones, CEO and President of Baldwin, and their desire to step down after many 
years of service.  Connell has served on the board since 1995 and Head has 
been a board member since 1983.  No replacement directors were appointed. 

Kenneth Pavia, chairman of the board of directors, stated that the reduction 
in the board would allow further flexibility in addressing the challenges 
confronting the Company.  "Baldwin continues to address certain legacy issues 
as part of the Company's overall restructuring efforts, and the board, as 
presently configured, stands ready to actively counsel management and aid 
during this transitional period.   The reduction in the board mirrors the 
temporary downsizing efforts of the Company and will be adjusted as 
appropriate."
