The Sing for Hope Pianos
From the Bronx to Beirut, the Sing for Hope Pianos program is a global
arts initiative that creates artist-designed pianos; places them in
public spaces for anyone and everyone to enjoy; then transports and
activates them year-round in permanent homes in schools, hospitals,
transit hubs, refugee camps, and community-based organizations. Sing
for Hope has provided more pianos for under-resourced public schools
than any other organization in the world.

That said, please do note our emphasis on flexibility with event start times. You may arrive to a five-year-old’s first tour of the keys, etc. — so you’ll want to be flexible with your start time and mindful of the communal kindness at the heart of the program.
No. We are all about an old-school acoustic vibe (and you sound gorgeous without a mike, by the way). To that point, did you know that the piano was originally called the pianoforte, Italian for soft-loud, because of its gorgeous range of dynamics, from pianissimo (super soft) to your fortissimo (super loud)? So get out there and explore all of your volume levels, but without amplification, please.
No permit is needed if your performance is being recorded or live streamed using any of the following nonprofessional items: hand-held camera, cell phone, tripod on piano or selfie stick, small tripod, and if it is for non-commercial use such as social media/personal use.
