  • tori amos live montreal 1994. The only video i have found where she played the Prepared piano that was
    on under the pink
    And now I speak to you
    Are you in there
    You have her face and her eyes
    But you are not her
    And we go at each other like blank ettes
    Who cant find their thread and their bare

    I'd love if she did an entire album of songs using this piano. It creates such a haunting sound. I remember in the liner notes that the original piano was just broken down - so essentially they're recreating it by whatever means.

    She is no a perfect beauty, but in my eyes she is so unique and beautiful !
    When she is playing on her piano (or harpsichord, etc.) and singing she attracts me in an undescribable way, so I feel love, respect and admiration at the same time like a young, confused boy.
    Oh, God, thank you for Tori !

      It only happened for that 1994 world tour. It wasnt complete, so limited use, combined with the break up of a long term relationship with the guy who helped make that piano, and then she leanred harpsichord for the 1996 tour and there wasnt room for it. The harpsichord proved to be alot of work to keep maintained on tour and not feasible. The 1998 tour was primarily plugged in and she had personal problems, thats where things started to change from what we knew, to what we know.

Such a beautiful sound they achieved by messing around with the interior.

    many classical and experimental composers have used prepared instruments. prepared piano means screwing with the strings, putting objects in and between them... it changes the piano in unpredictable ways, kind of making a percussion section out of a single instrument. i've played on a few... always magical

    Did you ever subscribe to REALLY DEEP THOUGHTS? I believe they featured an interview with Tori about the prepared piano. The original was a very old upright that Eric Rosse (and I believe Philip Shenale) practically destroyed. They detuned it. They muted 2 of the 3 strings of each note. They put all sorts of stuff in the key mechanisms. And I VIVDLY remember that Eric smashed the soundboard with something - maybe a hammer.

    It's commonly referred to as a "prepared piano". You can look it up for more information. Composers like John Cage and Henry Cowell were poineers in using this technique... but it can be credited even before them. There is a Wikipedia page about prepared pianos... if you want to know more. The page also credits Tori for using a prepared piano too.

This piano was prepared just for the tour - the original was too fragile to transport all over the world.
