Now here’s a Japanese guy who DOESN’T subscribe to the Kyoto Protocol! Yuk yuk.
That said, this seems like a big waste. Even if the piano is a bit worn, couldn’t it be donated to a music school somewhere? I’m a libertarian and it IS his property, but as a tightwad engineer I don’t like wasting anything with remaining utility. His call, though…

I can’t wait to see how he pays respect to his family.

Sid, I wouldn’t burn a musical instrument either, but I guess if Jimi Hendrix could burn guitars, this guy can burn pianos.
Bean, Cremation is pretty much the standard in Japan. As long as the family member is certifiably dead.

Gail-
Yes, but that piano was not ‘dead’. The human equivalent would be setting fire to his ex-wife and having sex with the corpse. -

And all at the same time too. That would be something to see.

I do appreciate hamburgers. I cook them the same way.

@bean-
I wonder if the instruments of dead Indian musicians are tossed on the funerl pyres with them, akin to widowburning… -

A nasty, smelly, environmentally unsound waste of a perfectly good instrument, all in the name of the postmodern claptrap that passes for “art”.
(And I cringe when I watch Hendrix burn his guitar, too.)

Destroying awesome pianos keeps artisans busy making awesome pianos instead of kitchen cabinets.

Wussy. Next time be a “real” artist and do it without the flame suit on.

Funny thing about this is the firewall between him and the piano. It’s definitely there beneath the piano, and it looks like it’s there on top as well. The player is at no risk from the fire whatsoever.
It makes an unusual picture at first, but is completely pointless when you consider it’s nothing more than a staged, controlled trick.

This is like Jimi Hendrix at Monterey. I personally don’t believe in destroying musical instruments,given that so many young musicians can’t afford one, but who am I to criticize Hendrix (or The Who, for that matter)?
