From June 9 to 19, the City of Geneva adopts street pianos on which is inscribed "Play I'm Yours". So whether you're Mozart or great lovers, you can sit and play: 20 pianos scattered throughout the city are available.
This initiative is part art of the 20th anniversary of the Music Festival (June 21st):
"The idea is to introduce the music before the festival"
"The idea is to introduce the music before the festival"
This project was conceived in 2008 in Birmingham by Luke Jerram. This British artist has realized that people in his neighborhood were not talking, so he decided to install a piano. And the situation has changed. Since then, over 400 pianos were arranged for two or three weeks around the world. Geneva is the 19th city to join the project.
