@ above,
she needs to move. it's hard to see the piano with her in the way., also how inconsiderate of her to not use a seat cover.

[rachmaninoff_forever]

What if there was a piano in front of the toilet seat!  That say you can play while dealing with your business!

Why aren't the sharps colored as well?  I think it would be interesting keyboard for people with synaesthesia.

Interestingly, the colours are different to those described by Scriabin, who did have synaesthesia (and also ascribed colours to the "black" keys).

I think the difference would drive you even more nuts.

Interesting.  I haven't seen a piano reused like that before.

Greta, now it will be much easier for me to realize my dream of playing the harp

Do they have something similar for the cello?

Let's see if this old thread can be revived....

This one is produced by German constructor Mr. Klavins. Extremely interesting.

When I started learning the organ, I got hold of an old pedalboard, stuck it under a decrepit upright, and connected the pedals to the underside of the bass keys with fishing line and small screw eyes. Much to my surprise, it actually worked and was quite a useful practice tool.

You're my mum's cousin livin in Milan, isn't it? Then in 1955 you bought a Farfisa transistorized ogan...

[chrisbutch]

Actually, I were livin in Pompey at the time...
