“Why does the world need a Piano Day? For many reasons. But mostly, because it doesn’t hurt to celebrate the piano and everything around it: performers, composers, piano builders, tuners, movers and most importantly, the listener.” Nils Frahm
Celebrate Piano Day and find joy in playing the piano all year long with Piano Day: The Collection. This official anthology brings together 35 atmospheric works for solo piano inspired by Piano Day playlists and albums over the years, curated by Piano Day founder Nils Frahm. Suitable for intermediate pianists and featuring music by Ólafur Arnalds, Hania Rani, Ludovico Einaudi, Olivia Belli, Nils Frahm and many more, Piano Day: The Collection is a celebration of the piano in the 21st century.
Founded in 2015 by Nils Frahm, Piano Day is an annual worldwide event which takes place on the 88th day of the year – derived from the number of keys on a piano. The goal of Piano Day is simple: to raise the profile of the piano, inspire more people to play the piano and encourage piano playing in public spaces.
