Onlookers In Awe As Dancers Play Piano Rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody With Their Feet
A sunset was forming above the harbour one evening in Verbania, Italy, where another spectacle had been prepared beside the water. Il Grande Piano, an enormous keyboard designed to be played from the floor, stood ready as two women wearing white dresses approached it.
The performers began Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody,” operating every key with their feet rather than their hands. Their steps produced a gentle interpretation of the song, while their carefully arranged movements also formed a delicate dance across the instrument.
Online viewers responded with surprise. One jokingly described the routine as the finest hands-free version of the song, using “hands down” to complete the joke. Another shared a statement attributed to Freddie Mercury permitting any treatment of his music provided it was not made boring.
The source’s writer believed the performance fulfilled that attributed idea. By applying creativity and skill to the arrangement, the two women produced an unusual cover that changed the writer’s assumptions about how beautiful music played by foot on a floor piano could be.
