Truly one of a kind and a work of art with fine marquetry of floral patterns and portraits of famous composers. You cannot find a better made, playing or sounding piano from any time. This company specialized in the highest quality for wealthy clients.

Corner Piano at Gu Lang Yu Island Piano Museum

Ok, so how do you play it?

I'd love to see the guts - but I'm assuming its a stage prop?

Not sure... but it looks old. Your comments would, however, apply to this:



The piano that was used in the Alicia Keys Target spot: www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KbIjWfPLkU

Can't find any specifics about that corner piano, but it's part of the Gulangyu Piano Museum, claimed to be the largest piano museum in Asia.

Description=Seguin in the Steinway? (It's a Baldwin, actually)

Singing Dingo
hell, that was soooo funny. This dingo actually howls when someone is playing the piano and he does it LOUD AND PERSISTENT! The poor girl is even normally easily scared but she did a good job. You find him south of Alice Springs in the last roadhouse on the Stuart Highway before you reach the city.

Actually I can't see the piano, but one supposes that it is buried amongst the speakers:-)

Austrian composer simulates speech using... A piano
The “Speaking Piano” has been programmed to recite The Proclamation of the European Environmental Criminal Court World Venice Forum 2009, for all to hear. Artist/composer Peter Ablinger transcoded the voice of an elementary student into data that could then be interpreted by a computer and mapped to servos that play the piano keys.

Piano Mannequin
Our house is a haven of kooky creativity. For example, here is our piano, in our living room. - painted and dressed as part of a performance art piece called “Harvest Goddess” - Today this reclining mannequin protects that Oscar that you see by her left elbow...

I think that one would give me nightmares. Claustrophobia?

Another alternative perhaps? - Still giddy!
