The Piano in the Woods project has now come to an end. The last performance took place on 3rd May 2014 (see below for details and a recording).

I intend to write more fully about my experience of piano in the woods later in the summer. There has been so much to say that I haven’t yet been able to start…

In the meantime here is a lovely audio documentary about the project made by sound artist Ben Horner and I’ve reposted the wonderful short film that Ben Rowley made of us moving the piano into place at the beginning of the project.

Below that is a list acknowledging all the amazing people who collaborated on this project.
