piano covers

Ivories rendition versions

Piano covers are versions of songs performed on piano, typically arrangements of music not originally written for the instrument.

The term gained currency with YouTube and streaming platforms, where pianists post their renditions of pop hits, film scores, and video game soundtracks: I found some beautiful piano covers of Studio Ghibli music.

Separately, piano covers are protective cloths or fitted cases placed over a piano to shield it from dust.
