This one and the one to follow are a bit more contemplative than the other Boston Street Piano videos I’ve posted so far… enjoy!

10-3-2013 – Piano 12
This is the piano in Davis Square. I met a street musician who called himself “Busker”, and we had nice chat.

10-1-2013 – Piano 9
I found this piano on an early-morning walk around Harvard Square before work, on the Harvard Science Center overpass. Four out of 6 of the pianos I found were still locked at that time, but this one wasn’t!

While you’re waiting for me to upload more recordings of street pianos, check out this guy! He sat down to play right after me in Chinatown, and I was so mesmerized, I just stood and listened to him for a long time! See my bicycle make a cameo appearance!
10-1-2013 – Longy School of Music (Piano 10)
I have so many videos and recordings to upload! Please bear with me as I stitch together the sound recordings I made on my phone and the videos I took on a little fisheye camera (which had terrible sound quality, since it was resting and buzzing on the piano as I played!). It might be another week or two before I get everything posted 🙂
This piano was my tenth “grab”, if you will. So far, I’ve played 30 pianos, and I’m hoping to hit 40 by the time they are taken away.
This improvisation grew out of the slow movement from Ravel’s G minor piano concerto. I started playing around with it because there was a trumpet player outside in the courtyard practicing his part for that same concerto, but the first movement!

9-30-2013 – Piano 7
I drove across the river to Brighton on my lunch break today, to find this piano in a little triangular square at the top of Murdoch street. Someone else had been playing, and I sat and ate my lunch as I waited for him. When he was done, we nodded at each other, and he walked to his car and drove away.
9-29-2013 – Piano 5
From in front of the MFA. This piano was covered in lacquered art supplies – very fun!
9-29-2013 – Piano 3
The first recording from Harvard Medical School. This piano was notable in that the damper pedal did not work at all!
