Play Like Sir Elton on Red Piano at Manhattan Shop
NEW YORK (AP) -- A New York City piano showroom is inviting pianists to take off with their own renditions of Elton John's ``Rocket Man'' and other hits on a red piano inspired by the pop balladeer's recent Las Vegas show.
Frank & Camille's Fine Pianos is even offering gift certificates to anyone who sits down at the Elton John Signature Series Red Piano and plays one of John's songs in its entirety.
But just in case you can't hold a tune for that long, don't worry: Press a button, and the piano recreates hits like ``Tiny Dancer'' and ``Candle in the Wind.''
The Yamaha piano is on a national tour. Only a small number of the instruments are being manufactured.
Its design was inspired by the Las Vegas show ``Elton John and the Red Piano.''
