* Akiko san no piano
This “hibaku piano”, a piano harmed by Atomic Bomb was owned by Akiko Kawamoto who was a music lover and sophisticated girl. Her brief life was closed at the next day after the bomb dropped when she was 19 years old. She loved to play this piano, especially with Chopin’s music.
