As part of refurbishing and replanning the Gorky Park in Moscow, they “planted” old pianos in various spots. There’s a Russian phrase – “a piano in the bushes” – that means something obvious getting presented as a great surprise. Well, accidentally finding these pianos is not quite obvious, but that’s only half of the story. The lone-standing big piano has four working keys!! No other piano has that, only this one. So I made a small record of those keys extorting sound.
