Ever since Bartolomeo Cristofori created the piano back around 1700, pianists have tickled the ivory keys the world over. True, Johann Sebastian Bach didn’t like the new instrument, believing that the higher notes were too soft to give him the dynamic range he desired but he still came around and by the 1750s started selling pianos himself.

So while not Glenn Gould, and certainly not the Goldberg Variations, we can only smile at the video above with its six iPhone set-up and piano synth built in.

Music can be deliriously geeky.
