Casiotone's CT-S200
Casio America has announced it’s donating 25 Casiotone CT-S200 Portable Keyboards in support of Make Music Day, a festival of music celebrated each year on June 21 in more than 120 countries and across the United States.
Casio’s compact, battery-powered keyboard were on full display during the celebration, as a wide range of players across the U.S. came together to entertain audiences.
Several musicians offered up unplugged performances on the CT-S200 Portable Keyboards at famous landmarks, including Liberty Memorial Tower in Missouri, Mount Rushmore in South Dakota, Waikiki Beach in Hawaii, for zebras at a zoo in Pennsylvania and in Texas Canyon off Route 66 in Arizona.
Others were serving up performances on a mountaintop in Big Bear, California, on a pedal boat in Tempe Town Lake in Arizona, on a water taxi in Chicago, in a tree house in Ohio and atop a forklift in Washington state.
“Casio is grateful to once again be a part of Make Music, particularly this year, as we all come together to inspire one another, and to celebrate the joy active music making can bring,” said Stephen Schmidt, vice president of Casio’s electronic musical instruments division. “Casio is passionate about music, and we want to encourage all music enthusiasts to experience the excitement of performing, anytime and anywhere.”
