Play Me, I’m Yours

Touring internationally since 2008, Play Me, I’m Yours is an artwork by British artist Luke Jerram. Reaching over 10 million people worldwide, more than 1,850 street pianos have been installed as part of 75 presentations that took place in 55 cities across the globe, from London to New York, bearing the simple instruction to ‘Play Me, I’m Yours’.

Located on streets, in public parks, markets and train stations the pianos are available for everyone to play and enjoy. Play Me, I’m Yours invites the public to engage with, activate and take ownership of their urban environment, and to share their love of music and the visual arts. Decorated by local artists and community groups, our street pianos create a place for exchange and an opportunity for people to connect.

Play Me I’m Yours Munich has just come to an end, but there are still nine street pianos available in Bristol. We’re really excited to announce that the project is going to be presented in Japan for the first time, from 16-31 March 2018 in Kunitachi in Tokyo!

We are currently working with a number of other potential partners for 2018, so more new cities will be announced in due course – watch this space! Read More...

My boy, JJ has been playing the piano for a few months and has learnt to play Beethoven's Fur Elise and wanted to play all the pianos around Bristol. We did 4 pianos yesterday and he really enjoyed it. We're going to put together a video of the piece being played at as many locations as possible. He's currently learning Scott Joplin's 'Maple Leaf Rag' which is very difficult for someone who cannot read music and has only been playing for a few months but live performances around Bristol is really encouraging him and I know he wants to continue to play. Thank you for setting this up, it's a beautiful thing to do. Regards, Mark Kenna (aka Dad :)
