Exhibition curated by Amelia Harris

The piano is a standard of sorts, organising the playing of music into a monochromatic world of straight lines and rectangles, from which much clunking and beauty has been born. This exhibition gathers together members of the sound community, musicians, pianists and those humble clunkers to examine the piano, key by key.
