Piano with no one to play is but a lonely wooden box silent witness to sad cliché lonely cousin to long lost socks. Alone in a derelict room piano with no one to play soon will be cloaked by twilight's gloom amidst chaos, rot and decay. Yet in Köln, one midwinter day did Jarret stroke one of your kin piano with no one to play revealing the wonder therein. O'er instrument failings arose a masterpiece so critics say a concert which everyone knows piano with no one to play.
