“123-piano” is a musical project which brings people together through live music and generates spontaneous reactions. With the motto “The sky is the limit”, various artists were each allocated a piano and its location. This ensures that these locations really catch the eye of people passing at random. The mobile location is the 123-take-away-piano: on Sunday evenings, two go-carts with an upright piano will travel from door to door in four suburbs of Ghent. The pianos are available to all and anyone can use them. Are you driving to Ghent? First check whether you may enter the city centre with your vehicle.
