   Forty second and FINAL location on the tour (very bittersweet, I don't want this to end)- the College of Mount St. Joseph. The campus was very quiet when we arrived here. Fortunately, the piano is most likely the best piano (in terms of playability) of the 35 pianos that were used in this event. This one used to be located at the Delhi Biggs.
   
   The video is a recording of one of my old warhorses, Jerome Kern's "All the Things You Are." Watch the window in front of the piano as I'm playing...the guy (same guy who's in the photo) is so visibly enthusiastic, it's hysterical. I'm glad I had the video recorder running when he came out to see me. The guy requested that I play the Can-Can as I was finishing up my Kern song. The Can-Can?!? This is most definitely a song I've NEVER had anyone ask me to play, LET ALONE a young college student. I tried to play it, but not too successfully! But once he came out, he got other students to come out as well. It was a lot of fun, having them listen, and then talkling about music and other things. After awhile, an entire family came along too, so that their daughters could play the piano. I just think this video is neat, because it captures the initial reaction of a person to live piano music. His enthusiasm attracted others to come see and hear, and after awhile, we were a fairly large group of people just talking and hanging out and having a great time. This video distills the moment that defines the entire purpose of Luke Jerram's worldwide piano project. Thank you Luke, thank you Cincinnati Public Radio, and thank you everyone else involved in the production of this marvelous event! Cincinnati should do this again sometime!

   This piano is the one from the Delhi Biggs, but it sounds much nicer here. The security guard at the info desk had no clue what I was talking about when I asked where the piano was -- and it was sitting a few feet from him, outside the door!
   
   This one should get a lot of love from students, and it's reasonably protected from the elements. Photo taken 8-28-10.
