What is a prepared piano?
The pianist, Kelly Moran, first came across the idea of a prepared piano while at music college in the United States, and became hooked on the way in which composers altered the sound of the piano by inserting certain objects in between the strings of the instrument. She's currently on tour and found time to come into the Weekend studio.
