ISBN: 9780958224390 PUBLISHER: Ngaio Press FORMAT: Hardback PAGES: 127 PUBLICATION DATE: 1.08.2007 DIMENSIONS: 210mmX297mm

DESCRIPTION: Pianos were in huge numbers of New Zealand front parlours through Victorian and Edwardian times and into the 1920s. Central to home and community entertainment, they also stoked the flames of love for courting couples. Written by historian and musician John MacGibbon, Piano in the Parlour is a richly illustrated social history that looks affectionately at a time when pianos were the home entertainment system and most cherished domestic possession in New Zealand and many other countries. Included are words and music (with chords) for 17 songs played and sung in NZ homes during the piano's heyday.
