Piano playing cat (Nora)

I just found one of those, “and finally” news items pioneered by a ITN on the BBC News website about a piano playing Cat named Nora who has found fame on the Internet. A Lithuanian conductor contacted her owners after seeing the video which led to him creating a four-minute piece for the Klaipeda chamber orchestra, which was performed with a video of Nora the piano playing cat in the background.

I must admit to have been enamoured by Nora’s subtle and gentle style. I also found it very inspiring

It has to be said that you need to be a cat-lover to appreciate it. If you aren’t bothered about cats it’s not going to blow you away but if you love cats you should find it worth while.

Here’s the BBC news video article which shows a clip of the concert – Piano-playing cat takes centre stage and a YouTube video is embedded below.
