Cape Town - Back in 2008 British artist, Luke Jarram, came up with the idea to encourage interaction between strangers by placing 15 pianos in various public locations across Birmingham in the UK.
He named the project 'Play Me, I'm Yours' and probably never guessed it would become so popular that it would still be running seven years later... and right across the globe!
Daily Mail reports that since then more than 13 000 pianos have been installed in 45 cities across the globe carrying the simple instruction 'Play Me, I'm Yours', reaching roughly 60 million people worldwide.
The pianos that have popped up in cities around the world have been renovated and painted by local artists, often with help from their communities.
It has made for some amazing impromptu performances and some pretty heartwarming pictures. Check out these images and videos shared on Instagram:
