That's right, tomorrow is International Piano Day!


What is Piano Day?
"The aim of the day is to create a platform for piano related projects in order to promote the development of musical dimensions and to continue sharing the centuries-old joy of playing piano. It is intended to be the most joyful of all holidays!" (pianoday.org)


When is Piano Day?
Piano Day is celebrated on the 88th day of the year - March 28th, 2020 - because of the number of keys on the instrument.


Why Piano Day?
Why the heck not? 

No, seriously, we observe so many other holidays that have lost meaning to most people celebrating them, why not celebrate something that has meaning in our lives?
 
As Nils Frahm puts it, “Why does the world need a Piano Day? For many reasons. But mostly, because it doesn’t hurt to celebrate the piano and everything around it: performers, composers, piano builders, tuners, movers and most important, the listener.”


How Can You Celebrate Piano Day? 
The easiest way to celebrate is by playing and sharing the love of all things piano with those whom you love.

There are typically local gatherings and concerts across the world, but due to the current situation with the coronavirus pandemic, many (if not all by the time this is posted) of the live events have been canceled. There are however several groups have chosen to continue their performances via livestream. You can find more information about that at  pianoday.org.


Here are some additional resources:
