Play Me, I'm Yours
London: 2012
Presented by the City of London Festival in 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 and touring internationally since 2008, Play Me, I’m Yours is an artwork by artist Luke Jerram.
This year the City of London Festival celebrates its golden jubilee anniversary on a grand scale, presenting 50 Golden Street Pianos from Sunday 24 June to Friday 13 July 2012, spread across London landmarks and beauty spots of the City and neighbouring boroughs for three weeks of singing and playing.
A gleaming musical marathon is presented for the Festival opening on Sunday 24 June with 300 free piano lessons at 50 Golden Street Pianos. This will be launched by one of pop music’s greatest vocalists, Spandau Ballet legend Tony Hadley, who will perform some memorable hits accompanied by some of the country’s best young musicians from the National Youth Jazz Orchestra. Make sure you’re at the Golden Street Piano on the north side of Millennium Bridge from 12.45pm on Sunday 24 June to catch this special one-off performance! Then drop in at any piano from 1.00pm – 4.00pm on Sunday 24 June to sign up for a free lesson. See Events for further Festival events at the street pianos.
This website was made for the public to post and share films, photos and stories about the pianos. Whilst documenting each piano’s journey, the website connects the pianos and their communities across the city and acts as a legacy for the artwork.
