Our Charity of the Year Committee are organising an ambitious sponsored 24 hour ‘Pianothon’ from Saturday 5th October – Sunday 6th October, in aid of the ‘Every Drop Counts’ project in Teustepe, Nicaragua.

We are looking for piano players of any age and any ability to join in the fun and help us fill 24 hours with music of all types!  Did you learn piano as a child and could play a piece or two to fill 5 minutes? Are you a professional who could perform a short ‘concert’ slot in the afternoon or evening? Would you prefer an overnight slot when no one is listening?

Whilst we are predominantely looking for piano players, they can be accompanied by any other instrument or voice, as long as a piano is playing too.  And other keyboard instruments (organ, harpsichord, electronic keyboard) are welcome too.

If you would be willing to sign up for a slot of any length, please use the contact form below.  We will collect all offers in the next few months and pull them together into a full 24 hour programme in due course.

During the 24 hour Pianothon we will be serving food and drink and encouraging people to come along at any time of the day and night to hear what’s going on.  There will be a number of ‘concert’ slots by some fantastic musicians.  Watch this space for more information!

Please do get in touch if you have any queries or feedback, or would like to volunteer for a slot or can suggest someone who might be willing to join in the fun.

You can also start sponsoring our pianists straight away, using our 24-hour Pianothon online sponsorship page:  https://www.justgiving.com/page/stmaryspianothon

Whether you are playing, sponsoring or just coming along to enjoy the music…. thank you so much for your support of this ambitious project!
