It's not the last we'll hear of Barcelona's Paseo de Gracia

"Your city is full pianos" arrivedto Barcelona

The emblematic city of Barcelona hosted a series of grand pianos, which we make available to all those who wish to come and play them. It was a day to enjoy the activity that our founder, Jesús Serra Santamans, was so passionate about: improvising melodies on the piano, to the delight of those who, while not daring to play, choose to listen. 

The original idea of placing grand pianos in central areas of different cities so that anybody who wishes can play them was put into practice by the Maria Canals International Music Competition a few years ago and was first carried out in Madrid in 2012 with our support. Thanks to its extraordinary success, the idea has been expanded to other towns and cities.
