Nora, The Piano Cat

    

This is not a trick taught to Nora. She began sitting at the piano at about one-year-old. She's almost four now. She plays only when the mood strikes her, which is usually several times a day for short periods.

You saw her first in the popular videos "Nora: Practice Makes Purr-Fect" and "Nora: The Sequel." Then came the 2008 calendar "The Tao of Nora." Now experience her wit and wisdom in the new book "Nora The Piano Cat's Guide To Becoming A Good Musician." This book is the first in a series of books based on the unique teaching philosophy of Betsy Alexander and told through the character of Nora The Piano Cat.
