On the 4th of February 2016 he randomly surprised the people of St. Pancras international station with a wonderful performance using a piano especially placed there for his performance on that day. Sir Elton, at the end of his performance, signed the piano with a note saying, “It’s a gift. Love, Elton John.” The crowd was stunned, most of them taking a very valuable memory and video home with them that day.

This is exactly what Sir Elton would have wanted and why he placed this piano in the international station. There have been many public recordings of passers-by performing on the piano too. A brilliant young musician called “Cole Lam” played the Queen classic “Bohemian Rhapsody” attracting a large crowd at the station. His video has received over 32 million views on YouTube. There is a long list of wonderful talents that have walked passed and blessed this piano with their skill. Another one on the list is a Pianist that goes by the name of “David Pianosound”. David loves performing in public, so when he spotted the piano he sat down and played a magnificent cover of Pirates Of The Caribbean mashed up with the Game Of Thrones opening music. There has even been a piano battle, featuring talented pianists Brendan Kavanagh and Terry miles playing “Boogie Woogie”.
