We're listening to the second movement of a piano concerto in D major by Mozart. It's being played live, but there's no pianist in the room. It's a player piano. The music was recorded on long paper rolls more than 100 years ago. Stanford University just acquired a collection of rolls and pianos that will come to life at a special concert this weekend.
