Touring internationally since 2008, Play Me, I’m Yours is an artwork by British artist Luke Jerram. Reaching millions of people worldwide, more than 2000 street pianos have been installed by Luke and his team in over 70 cities across the globe, from Tokyo to New York, bearing the simple instruction to ‘Play Me, I’m Yours’.
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. Located on streets, in public parks, markets and train stations the pianos are available for everyone to play and enjoy. Decorated by local artists and community groups, the street pianos create a place for exchange and an opportunity for people to connect. Play Me, I’m Yours has also been copied by different organisations, helping to create a global movement and embedding Luke’s concept into contemporary culture.
Play Me, I’m Yours was recently presented in Brisbane, Australia and Augsburg, Germany.
A new book featuring Play Me I’m Yours and all of Luke’s other major artworks is now available for sale here!

大学通りの爽やかな空気と鳥の声とピアノ。 緑の中でピアノを弾いたのは初めて。 想像してたより、ずっと心地よくて、心が解放されました。

駅前で紫のスイートピーをもらってnonowa改札に向かうと、優しいピアノの調べが聴こえてきて、ワクワク。 ピアノは花畑に彩られていました。お花やさんの前にお花のピアノってシャレオツやなーっと。周りで小さな女の子がピアノひきたいーってワクワクして順番待ちしているのも可愛らしいね。 毎日朝はこの改札を帰りに通るけど、 3月は毎日nonowa口がクローズしてから国立に戻って来るので、ここは通れないから非常に残念だ。 会社帰りにヘロヘロになって帰ってきたら、優しいピアノの調べでお帰りって言ってくれたら最高なのに。
