AUSTIN -- The streets are alive with the sound of music. That's nothing new for the live music capital of the world. But a new art project has arrived in Austin that's striking a chord.

"Play Me, I'm Yours" is a month long art project that will spend April spreading the joy of music in Austin.

Fifteen pianos will be placed around the city for anyone to play. It doesn't matter if you know how to tickle the ivory of not.

The international project got its start in 2008 and has now installed pianos in more than 400 cities around the world. The first piano in Austin can be found on the Pfluger Pedestrian bridge over Lady Bird Lake.
