10-12-2013 - Piano #36/40 that I played out of the 75 total pianos

It was raining, so I opted for sneaking under the plastic sheet instead of removing it. It was really fun to play under a tent, and, as you'll hear, I surprised some children who were walking by!

I'm a Boston singer/songwriter, and met so many great people with the street pianos. I ended up playing 53/75, and performed a different song at each piano, you can watch them all at

My name is Jill Santos and I'm the current Miss Mendocino County from California. My platform is Music and Art Therapy for the Elderly and piano is the main source of therapy I provide for them, which is why finding these pianos was so special to me. I was in Boston for five days for an Alzheimer's Symposium at Harvard with my mom, and as soon as we learned about the pianos, we printed the map and searched for them all! Unfortunately we couldn't extend our trip anymore, but I did find 47 of them. It has been a wonderful adventure and experience playing in special places and meeting new people all over Boston. :)
