Play Me I’m Yours, an artwork by Bristol artist Luke Jerram, is a musical art trail of individually-decorated street pianos installed in public spaces across a city for everyone to play and enjoy. Reaching over 10 million people worldwide, more than 1700 pianos have been set up in over 55 cities across the globe, from Hong Kong to New York, bearing the simple instruction Play Me I’m Yours. The pro
ject has spawned marriage proposals, inspired musical compositions, helped discover new stars and been played by celebrities including Jamie Cullum, Jools Holland, Alicia Keys and Cindy Lauper. To mark the 10th anniversary of the project, Play Me, I’m Yours is coming to Bristol from Thursday 17 August to Thursday 7 September 2017. Around 18 street pianos, transformed by Bristol artists, will be placed in public locations across the city to form a musical arts trail for everyone to visit, play and enjoy. We look forward to bringing music and creativity to the streets and public spaces of the city this summer! More information about the piano locations, artists, sponsors and hosts will be posted on this website in due course. In the meantime follow us on Twitter using the hashtag and the handle . Play Me, I’m Yours Bristol 2017 is endorsed by Destination Bristol.
