Solution

Once you have the 8-track tape (track 4) playing through the broadcasting room, a series of notes will keep playing through the hallways. You need to go into the music room and play the same notes on the piano.

There are seven functional keys on the piano. I have labelled them, from left to right, 1-7.

The tune is 2-3-2-7-7-6-5-3-2.

Press the respective keys in order and you should be able to open the birdcage. If you make a mistake, you can just start from 2 again.

Thank you!!!! I was completely stuck on this part because apparently I was off by ONE note, but I just could not for the life of me figure it out.

Oh thank goodness for this guide. I'm tone deaf so I can't get through music puzzles.

Spent waaaay too long trying different combinations of notes before resorting to this guide, some of the notes sound too similar to others and the melody should be in the same room as the piano for reference, bad design and having to go out of the game is never fun, kills immersion lol.

I prefered Silient Hill's piano puzzle over this ones but it's a nice homage to who did it first. Thanks for the solution.

I remember figuring out the Piano puzzle in Silent Hill 1, but not having the Piano music play inside the Piano Room made it very difficult to compare notes.

Many thanks, this reminds me when I was a child & I got stuck in the piano puzzle :p good old times

Thanks a bunch for this! The puzzle's logic is really obvious: Reproduce the sound in the tape. But to figure out each tone and reproduce correctly was to much of a hassle for me to bother, lol.
