Egyptian children with disabilities can now enjoy playing the walking piano after the Chinese embassy in Egypt donated the big instrument to a local non-governmental organization for children with special needs.
The walking piano, also known as the big piano and floor piano, is an oversized electronic keyboard. The big piano is played as the user taps feet on the keys to make sound, merging dance, music, and play.
The 8-meter long floor piano was built especially for the Awladna Foundation for the Arts of Children with Special Needs, and is the first of its kind in Egypt.
Yang Ronghao, cultural counselor of the Chinese embassy in Egypt and director of the China Cultural Center in Cairo, delivered the piano to the foundation on Tuesday.
