bus station sonata nonplayers playing piano
on: November 18, 2012, 11:43:37 AM
Hi, I came across the forum. I have been doing a ocupel of piano projects and was thinking it might be of interest here. In this work we set up a piano in a bus station witha pianist and then got them to play Beethoven moonlight Sonata, only we got passers-bye to join in with him, many of whom were non players. I would really like to know what people think.

Nice idea :)

I think new innovations are really needed if we want to get people interested in the piano in this era of effortless entertainment.

When I was a child probably one in 5 of my peers played an instrument (piano being the most common) at least in the middle class families. Nowdays most of my friends have children but very few of them play anything :( They do sports and computer stuff on their free time.
