Wiki:
Sparky's Magic Piano features Sparky, an original character created for in 1947. (Sparky also appeared in comic books as a sidekick to Capitol’s other famous creation, .) Sparky is a little boy with an overactive imagination. His adventures involve inanimate objects which magically come to life and talk to him.
The unusual popularity of Sparky’s Magic Piano can be attributed to the fact that the album is not only an excellent work of children’s fantasy; it also has a useful moral that was inspirational to any child practicing a musical instrument or studying classical music. Thus the album is a practical teaching tool as well as entertainment.

Sparky's Magic Piano plot summary:
Sparky is a young child who hates practicing the piano. One day, when he expresses his dislike for practicing, the piano talks to him, and tells him that he will show him what it is like to play the piano well, and that all Sparky has to do is run his fingers over the keys, and the piano will play whatever Sparky chooses. Sparky then amazes his mother with his playing, and she calls his piano teacher. The two adults decide to book concerts across the country, with Sparky as a solo pianist. Sparky insists that he must take his own piano with him to all his concerts, and his mother agrees. But the piano will play for Sparky only for a limited time, and this time runs out during a concert. Sparky begs the piano to play, but it does not respond, and Sparky is reduced to banging helplessly on the keys. He hears his mother calling him, and he awakens and finds himself at home. It then becomes apparent to the listener, and to Sparky, that the entire experience was a dream. But it has given Sparky a new appreciation of the piano, and he vows to keep practicing until he can play as well as he did in his dream.
