In their interviews, the pianists talk about such topics as their earliest experiences at the piano, the crucial importance of their earliest teachers, the literature they play, the instruments they prefer, what it means to be a musician, and the joys and difficulties of a professional career doing what they love. At the Piano is written not only for the specialist and non-specialist pianist but also for all musicians and general music lovers.
