  Piano hits wall - how to repair damage

It's probably best to cut a minimum sized rectangle out of the wall to the first wall stud on each side of the hole. Score to half way across the studs and break out. Cut a patch from new drywall (It's probably doubled sheets). If there are no electrical wires in the area, pack the area behind the patch with wadded up screening or something to support the back and nail the patch to the wall studs. Then, fill the joints, tape and paint.

If the old dry wall isn't standard thickness, I've used metal or dry lathe and built plaster up level to the old surface (allow for shrinkage though). For smaller holes, I've just backed with wadded screen and plastered up to level. The wall probably is a home-owner job, the piano probably needs a professional tuner.

I just realized that I made an assumption that the hole is open so any electrical wiring present can be seen. Under no circumstances should anybody ever cut into a wall cavity blindly unless there is absolute certainty that no wiring is present.
