The Burned Piano Project

Beautiful story. You can read or listen; I read it but will go back to listen because there are a couple piano pieces in there on the “glass piano” reconstruction. I may even go downtown to see this exhibit…

Oh wow. Thanks for sharing this, I will listen to it this morning.

Great story..

ShiroKuro

I listened! I definitely recommend listening so you can hear the instrument she made. Very cool!

I'm glad that listening to the story was suggested; it certainly enhanced the experience by being able to hear the glass piano.

I went to the link for the exhibit and saw one additional photo. I would have liked to see more. If someone goes to the exhibit, perhaps they will post some additonal pictures.

This story was more personal for me because of my brother-in-law who was murdered along with 10 others in the antisemitic attack in Pittsburgh on 10/27/2018.

I am so sorry about this. It's a truly awful, evil thing that I'm very sorry touched your family so personally.

There is too much hatred in this world.

Did you go to the Violins of Hope exhibit when it came to your area? The concert here was sold out and I missed the exhibit that was at my library. I hope it comes back.

Big_Al

No, I did not make it to the exhibit or concert. I had it bookmarked but it slipped by me nonetheless.

Well, unless we travel to Calgary, looks like we're both out of luck for a while.

I wonder if @DeweyLOU 's husband knows the folks at the Violins of Hope organization.

@Big_Al I will try to get there and take some pictures, too.
