Mauroffortissimo

Mauro’s “Liberated Piano” is an instrument whose keys and hammers have been removed presenting the performer with unimpeded access to the strings with mallets, filament bows and stroked, rosined rods. Ffortissimo gives a second life to these complex and beautiful musical instruments that are otherwise destined to the dump and creates assemblage sculptures using the piano’s parts: wood, strings, hammers & screws.

Michael Rohde and his partners in Olympia, WA, make musical instruments from piano wood: whistles, electric guitar bodies, rolling tool chests, drawers, and more. They make key rings out of the black keys, and carve scrimshaw with the ivories.
