1. A Schoenberg piece?

Maybe Krenek?

2. Is the cat reading the sheet music on the piano rack ?

3. Clearly inspired by Luigi Russolo!

A brilliant "noise music" composition!

4. takes lessons from Norah, definitely

Playing style is quite similar

6. I noticed that myself - her touch/technique is...

...very much the same.

Did you ever hear Nora's Catcerto? A composer from Lithuania wrote the piece, and it is quite delightful.

7. I think this one plays with more confidence

than Norah. Starts right off with melodious chords and uses both front paws. Norah uses one paw.

5. Kitty plays that thing better than I can.

8. When I was a kid suddenly one night we started hearing the piano play in the middle of the night

It turned out that the chinchillas my Dad had adopted as pets to save them from becoming furs, had gotten out of their cage and would run up and down the keyboard. They also sampled the ivory keys.

That week, the chinchillas were moved outside. I don't think it was the piano that bothered Mom but she was pissed that they ate her parlor palms.

We decided that chinchillas would be just fine in a Florida winter and made sure they were shaded well for the Florida summers.

9. That was so cool and adorable.
