The celebration took place for the first time in 2015.

And when Fram was asked why such a day was needed, he simply answered: "The celebration of Piano Day will not interfere with anyone: neither performers, nor composers, nor masters, nor listeners."

The composer approached the date of the celebration quite symbolically and creatively.

He chose for the holiday the 88th day of the year, which is March 29.

Why the 88th day?

Because the piano has eighty-eight keys.

Also, March 29

This is a professional holiday.

Magicians are called circus masters, artists who demonstrate various tricks to the public.

The main secret of tricks lies in the illusion of vision and sleight of hand.

It is interesting that professional magicians appeared in the Middle Ages.

In the 18th century, the Turok slot machine was very popular.

People thought that the machine could play chess, but it actually had a chess player sitting inside it.

Previously, card magicians were called shulers.

And March 29

It was on this day in 1886 that American pharmacist John Pemberton created a new drink based on coca leaves.

Later, these ingredients were removed and the drink was made carbonated.

The recipe of the famous drink is still kept secret.

Only two people know him.
