It has emerged that the piano claimed by a museum to be used by the composer while he stayed in an old monastic cell on the island could never have been played by the maestro as it was in fact manufactured after his death.

I think this actually belongs in that gaudy house in Houston. From the Portal of Evil Random Images Generator, which, sadly, departed the Interwebs about six days ago. Which positively gives me the vapors. Whatever will I do without my random view into the World of Bad Taste?

The city purchased 8 pianos and commissioned local artists to paint them.
They have been place around the Downtown for anyone to play.
