On this page, we will share with you a number of previously-recorded performances by Patrick C. Vida on the actual piano from Olympic that we are trying to preserve. We hope you enjoy them!

All of the music recorded in the videos below really shows precisely what we are trying to preserve: a historic piano with ties to Titanic. This is the sound of the Olympic-class ships and their era. We are attempting to preserve the instrument and its sound in a safe environment for future generations of Titanic and music history enthusiasts to enjoy.
