That said Piano itself is capable of a rich soundscape, especially if you dig into extended techniques, like here:


Still, it is highly impractical requiring a lot of figuring out, recording, "preparing" the piano and editing. The popularity of big ensembles is that you have a rich soundscape to choose from, and less dealing with individual instruments limitations.

I think "piano" solo OST would be interesting, but for a right project and right person behind playing&composing.
