Small Sitting Room

The small sitting room adjoins the kitchen, and has always been known in the family as the Music Room.  For many years there was a pianola in here, which played paper rolls, but these days it has been superseded by the Yamaha Disklavier, which as well as being a very good piano, also has the ability to 'play by itself'.  Originally using floppy disks [which themselves have now gone the way of the paper rolls!] it now plays from a memory stick, which will record and play back, and which also holds a number of  commercial 'recordings' with which you can amaze your friends by playing without touching the keys.

 

The room also contains most of the collection of sheet music and children's toys, as well as a 42" Freesat TV, with a Playstation 3,  two controllers and a selection of games.  This will also play Blu-Rays and DVDs - and streaming content through an Amazon Firestick or if you bring your own AppleTV/ChromeCast etc.
