Every Tuesday we are at piano lessons for about 2 hours or longer. It is a highlight of my week as I get to hear my kids play all of what they worked so hard on all week!

and our lives strings,
we'd be sailing around it
on paper boats
made from music sheets,
with the sweetest of tastes
in our mouths
and the nicest of melodies
in our ears and hearts....
I can't think of a suitable application for this so I'm poking a fish with a rolled up Evening News instead.
When I look at this shot of the inside of a grand piano, it never fails to amaze me that an instrument with this much complexity became as popular as it has. Thousands of parts? Houndreds of pounds? Rediculously expensive? "It'll never catch on..."
The creation of a grand piano is a fantastic process, check out many of the piano manufacturer's videos over at YouTube.

This is the Our Lady of Czestochowa Catholic Church or as its marketed "Our Lady’s Church on the Waterfront” in Jersey City, NJ. The church building is small but beautiful in its own way esp as a small neighborhood church.
Piano lessons were going on when I took this however the piano teacher (pictured on far right front) was most gracious in allowing me to poke around and take some images.
Interesting excerpt on the church from the New York Times - July 2001:
To the dwindling Polish community in this waterfront town bustling once again -- the changes at the local church say it all.
Call it the tale of Our Lady of the Upwardly Mobile.
''Gather Us In,'' a hymn sung during Mass at Our Lady of Czestochowa Roman Catholic Church near the booming waterfront last Sunday, opened with the lines, ''Here in this place, a new light is streaming/Now is the darkness vanished away.''
Yet that new light, however divine, has cast stark changes over the historically Polish parish in recent years as the local pastor -- with the backing of the authorities at the Archdiocese of Newark -- tries to gather in the young urbanites who have flocked to the Paulus Hook neighborhood that surrounds Our Lady of Czestochowa.
On a mission to broaden the appeal and maximize the efficiency of the parish, which also includes a school, a community center and some choice real estate, the pastor last month eliminated the Polish-language Mass that had been a tradition at Our Lady of Czestochowa in the century since Polish Catholic immigrants bought the gray stone church from upwardly mobile Episcopalians.
But in a move that could make the most shameless real estate agent blush, the Rev. Thomas Iwanowski has sought to play down Our Lady of Czestochowa's very name. He has done that with what he calls a tag line painted above the church's double oak doors: Our Lady's Church on the Waterfront.
The new logo -- conceived by an advertising executive -- uses only the letters OLC.
''When the wind blows, things change,'' Father Iwanowski said during an interview in his office in the rectory next to the church. ''When the spirit of God comes, things change. Right now, change is involved here.''

The Piano Lesson, Issy-les-Moulineaux, late summer 1916.
Oil on canvas, 8' 1/2" x 6' 11 3/4" (245.1 x 212.7 cm)
Henri Matisse, French, 1869-1954
This composition shows the open living-room window of Matisse's house at Issy-les-Moulineaux, outside Paris, with his son Pierre practicing on the Pleyel piano. It is dusk; a candle is burning, illuminating a triangle of the lawn. In the bottom left corner is a representation of the most erotic of Matisse's sculptures, Decorative Figure of 1908, while the severe "teacher" in the opposite corner is a representation of the painting Woman on a High Stool of 1914. Together they afford a contrast of sensuality and hard work, suggesting that Pierre may be a surrogate representation of his father.

The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) was founded in 1929 and is often recognized as the most influential museum of modern art in the world. Over the course of the next ten years, the Museum moved three times into progressively larger temporary quarters, and in 1939 finally opened the doors of its midtown home, located on 53rd Street between Fifth and Sixth Avenues in midtown.
MoMA's holdings include more than 150,000 paintings, sculptures, drawings, prints, photographs, architectural models and drawings, and design objects. Highlights of the collection inlcude Vincent Van Gogh's The Starry Night, Salvador Dali's The Persisence of Memory, Pablo Picasso's Les Demoiseels d'Avignon and Three Musicians, Claude Monet's Water Lilies, Piet Mondrian's Broadway Boogie Woogie, Paul Gauguin's The Seed of the Areoi, Henri Matisse's Dance, Marc Chagall's I and the Village, Paul Cezanne's The Bather, Jackson Pollack's Number 31, 1950, and Andy Warhol's Campbell's Soup Cans. MoMA also owns approximately 22,000 films and four million film stills, and MoMA's Library and Archives, the premier research facilities of their kind in the world, hold over 300,000 books, artist books, and periodicals, and extensive individual files on more than 70,000 artists.

It seems like no matter what angle you take a picture from, the grand piano always seems to be dressed in a tuxedo. As a piano player, one of the most amazing things for me to watch is my own hands reflected in the fallboard. Not that I'm enamored with myself too much, but for some reason when you're watching your own hands reflected and spun around, they seem disconnected and your playing takes on a new perspective. I know that's kind of weird but always strikes me as an interesting sight.
I produce online video piano lessons online, and most of my students don't have a grand piano. However, it always gives me a kick when one of my students steps up to the plate of commitment and buys a grand piano so they'll sound fantastic when they really get good! What a great incentive to become a musician. On the other hand I'm always kind of sad when I see a grand piano sitting unused in someone's house. Really sad. Shouldn't that be illegal? :)

Brass wound bass piano strings - it's amazing how the mechanical scale of the piano is also extremely pleasing to the eye. Even though this particular grand piano is not extremely long, it is long enough so that the bass piano strings don't have to be wound too heavily. Check this tidbit out - in order for a piano to have strings long enough so that they would not need to have any windings on them, the piano would have to be two stories tall!
No kidding, I actually saw a picture of a piano like this in Germany back in the 1980s. It was in an issue of keyboard Magazine, and it was a completely amazing sight. The pianist actually had to climb a ladder up to the second story to play the keyboard. Somebody had to be pretty excessive in their creativity to come up with that one. I've got an online website that teaches students how to play piano keyboard by ear, ( Check out the piano lessons here ) and in the course of producing video lessons, I'm always hauling around heavy keyboards and moving grand pianos. I suppose if I was really a purist I'd take all those video piano lessons from three stories above that big upright beast of a piano in Germany!

Okay, I pixelated this poor grand piano to death. But even so, it's gorgeous.
Check out those pins in the pin block. Those babies are about 2 inches long, and are really heavy. The reason I bring it up is because every time I see the the pin block of the piano, I think about the time that my dad was in charge of the men's dorm back in college. They had an old upright piano in the fourth story, and after years of relentless pounding from college boys, the piano was dead. They tried to remove it, but in the years since it had been taken up to the fourth story, the stairwells had been narrowed and they couldn't get the piano down.
My dad always had a flair for the dramatic (he was a fantastic preacher) and he decided to make a college event out of removing that poor dead piano.
On the following Saturday, all the students gathered beneath the men's dorm, four stories below on the ground. The door at the end of the hallway of the fourth floor was opened up. Down the hall came four strapping college boys, rolling that baby towards oblivion. When they stopped on the edge of the fire escape, the piano made its maiden voyage out into the wild blue yonder.
My dad said that when the piano hit the concrete, the sound was unlike anything he'd ever heard. I'm sure.
What he didn't know was that each one of the strings had approximately 120 pounds of tension on them. At the end of each one of those strings was a 2" turning pin, almost as heavy as a 50 caliber World War II bullet. Dad said that they found very few of those tuning pins. Nobody died, at least that we know of...
