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. :)

Sally Wilson plays Bach while David, whom she met on the street with this piano, holds the music from the stiff breeze. Sally is the designer/team leader for the street piano across the street at the Mary Baker Eddy library.

Report this commentSally Wilson, artistic team leader for the piano at the Mary Baker Eddy Library across the street, met David here at this piano at Symphony Hall. He announced that he is 60 years old and teaching himself to read music. He normally doesn't have a piano available, so he is really excited about street pianos! Sally shared her Bach music with him, and he read it through for the first time. Really great for the first time!

Sally Wilson, ASID, artistic team leader for the piano at the Mary Baker Eddy Library, tries out the piano at Symphony Hall where she meets David, street pianist, who holds the music for her. Thanks to Woodmeister for providing the piano bench decorated by the piano artist in a fun way.
