Tricia Dawn Williams, a contemporary concert pianist, reveals that while Coronavirus has indeed disrupted her plans, she is still finding ways to be creative with her music: "All my concerts, both locally and internationally have been cancelled due to Covid-19. I need to perform and I won’t be defeated!," she wrote in a Facebook post.

To combat that she adopted a simple yet ingenious approach: "I have decided to take the opportunity and explore toy piano repertoire since it’s the only instrument I can take to different locations. Enjoy ... more to come," she concluded.
