World Piano Day – the 7 \u00bc octave date<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Initiated and brought to life in 2015 by the German composer, performer and producer Nils Frahm and a group of like-minded people, World Piano Day has taken place on the 88th day of the year ever since.\u00a0The special date refers to the number of keys on a piano and the pitch range of 7 \u00bc octaves.\u00a0Usually this is March 29th;\u00a0in leap years, the date moves to March 28th.<\/p>\n

It doesn’t hurt to celebrate<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The idea is original, the reason given by the initiator as to why there should be World Piano Day seems surprisingly short and to the point. Nils Frahm: “(…) For many reasons.\u00a0But above all because it doesn’t hurt to celebrate the piano and everything that comes with it: performers, composers, piano builders, tuners, piano shipping companies and above all the listeners.\u201d The piano is one of the most popular instruments par excellence.\u00a0With World Piano Day, it should get an additional boost.<\/p>\n

World Piano Day \u2013 Event for basically all piano enthusiasts<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The aim of World Piano Day is to put the importance of the piano in the public eye and to attract media attention. A wide variety of piano projects are being rolled out worldwide, with the emphasis on the comprehensive and global approach for all piano friends, from ambitious beginners to seasoned amateurs to keyboard professionals. Piano concerts and various other themed events take place in numerous cities under the banner of World Piano Day.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Connecting diversity across the continents<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The list of events taking place under the common motto is very long and no less international. The venues range from Berlin with Rubin Henkel, Sofi Paez & Yana to Austin in the USA with the Austin Chamber Ensemble to Kyoto in Japan, such as Yoko Komatsu ft. Daigo Hanada. Alexandra Hamilton-Ayres and Simeon Walker have been announced for World Piano Day in Bristol, UK, while piano arrangements by Sophie Hutchings, Evelyn Ida Morris and Grace Ferguson will be performed in Melbourne, Australia. Concerts with Paula Pr\u00e4ktig and Teemu Halmkrona have been announced from the Finnish capital. There are numerous others. One could almost call it a global piano grand prix without an award ceremony.<\/p>\n
