Grand Canyon Suite
On September 18, 1979, pianist Marden Abadi played selections from Debussy, Gershwin, Chopin, and Grofe’s “Grand Piano Suite” before several hundred people. The park service would not allow the use of a helicopter to lower the one and a half ton, $30,000 rosewood grand piano bellow the rim. Instead a team of about forty people carried the piano and placed it rather precariously by the canyon rim.
