Lament for a Fallen Piano

I am very upset! Someone deliberately destroyed the public piano in front of University Settlement at Grange Park in Toronto. Grey paint was thrown on the keyboard and it is now unplayable and I suspect it is also unrepairable. I cannot imagine what the motivation was for this vandalism. We will sadly no longer hear the musical tinkering of children and local musicians while we play at the park. This is a song I wrote called Lament for a Fallen Piano. The background noise in the video is an audio recording of the ambient sounds from the park in front of University Settlement.

Quite a lovely instrument. Why did this make me emotional

[@unisettlementmusicartsschool]

Thank you for this tribute. The piece is lovely and very moving. I don't think we'll be able to replace this instrument this summer, but we're hopeful that by next summer we can find another piano so that our community can have the opportunity to make a little music in Grange Park.

I look forward to the new piano when you are able to replace the old one. Thanks again for everything you do at University Settlement. It has been a wonderful place for me and my family for many years now.
