Dear listeners,
A open call for those interested in using and subverting the traditions of the piano.
With regards,
The SoundFjord Team

Untuned Piano Project
Open call
SoundFjord has had the good fortune to come into the possession of an upright piano – a C. Bustard (from
Collard and Collard, London) – that has been in the Lewis family for around 100 years. The piano has recently
been restrung, but has not been tuned.
The current owner, had kindly loaned us the instrument until the end of the year. We are excited to have the
piano available for use at the gallery, Monday–Friday, from 07 November to 02 December 2011.
Whilst we have the piano we encourage interested parties to utilise the piano – and its untuned nature – in
imaginative ways. We only stipulate that the piano must not be damaged.
Artists may book time with the piano, from one hour up to one week (Monday to Friday). We do not charge
for this opportunity.
If you would like to make use of the piano (for research, recording or performance) please sent us an
application detailing how you wish to use the piano and when you would like to use the piano. Information
on your practice would also be useful.
Send your contact details including your email address and a phone number as well as your application to:
applications[at]soundfjord.org.uk
For further information contact: info[at]soundfjord.org.uk
DEADLINE: 07 November 2011
N.B. We are only able to accept applications from those residing in the UK, or those able to travel to the UK
during the mentioned dates. Unfortunately we are not able to provide accommodation or travel bursaries for
this opportunity.
