Report this commentMy 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. :)

Report this commentBest design so far. I've played about 12 of the pianos and this one is so cool.
Today & Sunday, we're renting bikes and playing as many pianos as we can get to...that's what I call fun!

Report this commentWay cool design. I love this one in particular. Both the design and the quality of the piano are super.
We had a lot of fun playing Thursday evening 10/10 before going into the Beehive. Wow...that's some groovy piano!
