Play information:

I LOVE A PIANO is the celebration of the music and lyrics of Irving Berlin.  It follows the journey of a piano as it moves in and out of American lives from the turn-of-the-century to the present.  Most people have known and have had some kind of a relationship with a piano in their lifetime.  A piano, however, rarely remains in one place for seventy years. It moves.  It sees a lot.  It brings people together during times in their lives when they are the happiest, saddest, proudest, loneliest, closest, most romantic.  This is the story of one piano’s experience; of the people it touches; of the lives it shares.
 
I LOVE A PIANO is a tribute to the man, Irving Berlin, who, according to Jerome Kern, "...has no place in American music. He is American music.”
