Короткометражный мультфильм, претендовавший на премию «Оскар» в 1964 году. Автор мультфильма — Кармен Д’ Авино, кинорежиссер и скульптор. Он начал свою карьеру в качестве художника в 1930-е годы. «Пианиссимо» — это необычное музыкальное кино. Сначала на экране возникает музыкальный инструмент, который на глазах начинает приобретать цвет всех оттенков. Зрители могут видеть, как двигаются клавиши, создающие мелодию. Вокруг тоже все оживает, расцветает, наполняется жизнью, музыкой, красками.
