CBC Music arranged for 5-year-old piano prodigy Ryan Wang to play a private concert for a 101-year-old grandma named Dorothy Landry who isn't into "rock n' roll" or "all that modern stuff." And they hug and cry and it's touching as fuq. Because we were not already dehydrated enough by this damn weather without leaking from …
Cosplay Piano is at it again, this time with a much clamored-for Game of Thrones rendition. But wait! We don’t just see Sonya Belousova dressed up like the Khaleesi, playing piano alone in the desert — there’s a whole montage of GoT set-pieces, complete with all the lascivious behavior fans of the HBO drama/softcore…
The new, gritty Batman movies are fine, but there’s one thing that they were all sorely lacking: composer Danny Elfman’s theme music. Also, a very BDSM Catwoman suit. Oh, and batsuits with nipples, clearly an innovation born out of late 90s sartorial decadence. If you thought Sonya Belosouva’s Walking Dead rendition…
Get ready for some The Walking Dead-style chills and thrills as the masterful Sonya Belosouva bangs out the show's theme song. Unfortunately, she's also clueless and doesn't realize she's surrounded by the flesh-eating undead. Better run, girl!
The absolute greatest airport pianist — which, where are there even airport pianists? Besides the 1960s? JK I know it's O'Hare, but it's still crazy! — starts it off simple with some classy classical and then transitions into the hits of the internet ages! It's truly something and I really wish it was longer. I can…
Almost every dog can tell you a sad tale of woe (usually about not getting enough treats), but not every pooch can provide his own musical accompaniment. This hound is pretty darn talented on the piano—it's especially moving when he takes a little break to sniff the keys—but the best part of the song is the very…
Did you know that there's a link between pitch and flavor? Crossmodal associations are so fascinating. (Not exactly synesthesia, but close!)
This clever dingo in Australia has quite a nice little lounge act worked out. He taps ever so carefully on the piano keys to play some not-too-cacophonous notes, and then he sings along in a kind of deeply felt wail. Perhaps this dingo is singing the blues because he's grown tired of always being accused of eating…
When pianist Yuja Wang wore a tight orange mini-dress in a performance earlier this month, she touched off a debate about whether sexy concert attire detracts from the experience of the music — and whether we should even be paying attention to what classical musicians wear.
Right now, at Versailles, as part of the "Sciences and Curiosities at the Court of Versailles" exhibit, one can view the tiny piano-playing automaton/android — with which Marie Antoinette entertained her court. She's gorgeous, talented, and gives serious side-eye.
Wow, greyson97 has an amazing voice! Watch the young lady in the back row on the left… You may be able to see her pupils turn into tiny hearts. (Stills after the jump!) [New York Mag via Daily What]
