In light of the comments I read about the playing of pianos in museum collections, I wish to amend my previous comment. (I wrote it after reading the question, but before reading anyone else's response). Maybe a better solution would be to have some combination of playing the piano and recorded piano music. This could allow for the necessary playing of the piano (I learn something every day!) while limiting the wear and tear on the keys and exterior woodwork. Or maybe I'm just off my rocker - not a long trip LOL.
