Play Me, I’m Yours — Part II
Royal Ontario Museum
The first part of this series of blog posts was Freshly Pressed today! Yay! This is the third time I have received this honour in the past seven months. I love blogging, so it’s always nice when I’m recognized for the effort I put into it. It’s the best hobby I’ve ever had. Is that sad? Oh, who cares!?
I’ve managed to visit 17 locations so far; only 24 more to go. It’s hard work. My feet hurt. stay tuned…

I possess great compassion and seek to be of service to others. 
I need to visit Toronto! My 8.5-month-old baby loves pianos and would love to play, or just bang around really, on all of these pianos. They’re gorgeous and so enticing! Hmm maybe piano lessons in my future, too… Have you heard any good musicians play them ?
Yes I’ve been fortunate that every person I have photographed playing the piano has been talented, and capable. I’m sure there are many who are not. A visit to Toronto is something I recommend for everyone.
Interesting artwork! How do you know where to find these pianos?
Visit their website at http://streetpianos.com/toronto2012/
Ah! I knew they were coming but not that they’d arrived … thanks for the reminder!
You’re welcome.
these are great photographs, thanks for blogging them!…. Now I wonder if I can take a day and get to Toronto before July 31….
There’s a lot of planning involved if you want to see all 41 pianos! I’m not done yet, and I live downtown! Good luck!
I just love this idea! I also love the colours of the pianos. Fantastic!
They are beautiful. Thanks for reading.
Your project to walk all these ways and take photos is just as amazing as the idea of the beautifully painted pianos – great work, amazing to see – thank you for this incredible discovery, I will surely repost it!!
I am happy that you enjoy the posts. The hunt continues!
