As people step up and down the stairs, sensors trigger sounds, mimicking the keys of a piano. Following the popularity of last year&#8217;s stairway piano, Nishitetsu has updated the concept, transforming the keyboard into a harpsichord. The interactive feature will be available starting at 10 a.m. on September 1. It aims to bring vibrancy to the community and also increase train ridership. The &#8220;Giant Staircase Harpsichord&#8221; will remain in place until September 26. <\/span><b>Source:<\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nishitetsu.co.jp\/ja\/news\/news20230831\/main\/0\/link\/23_043.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nishitetsu<\/span><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\/ <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/yotemira.tnc.co.jp\/news\/articles\/NID2023083118829\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KBC<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/fnn_tenjin-stairway-nnr_2023_cl-003.jpg?resize=1080%2C810&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Stairway to Harmony: New Interactive Installation at Nishitetsu Fukuoka\" width=\"1080\" height=\"810\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-156480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/fnn_tenjin-stairway-nnr_2023_cl-003.jpg?w=1080&amp;ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/fnn_tenjin-stairway-nnr_2023_cl-003.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/fnn_tenjin-stairway-nnr_2023_cl-003.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/fnn_tenjin-stairway-nnr_2023_cl-003.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stay informed with the latest Fukuoka &amp; Kyushu news and events in English.
