“This month there are 30 “street pianos” strewn around London as part of the Play Me I’m Yours and Sing London festival. …The pianos have either been donated or bought on eBay for about £100. Each one has been painted by artists to suit the location and there is a song book provided. The songs in the books are site specific: train songs at a train station and water-related on a bridge. A piano tuner makes the rounds by bike to keep them in shape. Once the project is over, they will be given to schools and community groups.” (via TreeHugger)

I love this! It’d be fantastic to have pianos on streets around here. I’d sit down any play at every one.

    I can play the piano, but I’m not sure how well anymore. Maybe PGH should do this?
