Keys for the City--The Pianos in Lancaster

This summer Lancaster City has over 20 pianos at various sites around the city. All are working pianos and anyone can sit down and play them.

This piano is at Steinman Park on King Street just a block from Penn Square. The girl who is playing in this video is named Glenda!!!




This piano is covered with an unknown number of pennies. In my opinion this is the best looking piano. If you click on it you can see a close up of it. Just use the back arrow at the upper left to return to the blog.

When Chanda and I drove around downtown, this was the first one we came to. It is in the Arts Park across from Auntie Anne's in the Old Post Office Building and this guy was playing it but we didn't see a parking place at the time so we didn't get out and listen.



Later we drove back by it and parked and got out of the car and took this picture with the giant keys in the foreground.

This is Binn's Park which was built at an old Armstrong office building, I believe.

And this is the location of the piano titled city streets. On this side you see Duke.

On the back are Queen and King and I think Prince must be on the other side.

This piano is sponsored by the organization Music For Everyone. Notice the back of it is dressed in a pale pink tutu!

On the square in the Gazebo in front of the Fulton Bank.

Sponsored by United Way, this one is in front of the Southern Market.

I took this picture of one of the weather vanes on the roof of the market.

This orange piano has music on it and is at the Fulton Opera House.

I really like this lime green Farmland Trust piano. If you click on it you can see a closeup and look at the farm photos on it. Just use the back arrow key to return to the blog.

A see-through yellow piano.

Seated at this piano located in Musser Park is a very nice nearby resident named Joni and her dog. Neither one of them played it. We talked about how much she enjoys living downtown since they moved there after her husband retired.
