Piano in Sheffield station

Recommended Posts

I think its a great idea and have heard some great music from it from fellow passengers. However whose idea was it about the piano in the train station? Who owns it?

OK, he makes a few mistakes, but the tune that the homeless man is playing is very haunting ... and I love it! Anyone any idea what piece of music it is, please.

I don't believe it is a tune we should know O T.

The haunting quality you love is brought about through the player's own intense emotions.

They look like they *could* be the same guy on two different days.

 

Thank you for sharing those - they're beautiful. I think if I'd have been in the train station, I might have just ended up missing my train!!

Awesome.

 

Had me looking round at other clips for a little while since I started reading this thread. There are really some extremely talented people out there!

 

I like this one from St Pancras -

If you like this on piano....have a look at Cameron Carpenter Revolutionary Etude Chopin....and hear that difficult bit being played on organ pedals. That'll knock your socks off.   :)

This from East Midlands Trains who manage Sheffield station.

 

Sadly the piano has been removed due to vandalism, the piano will not be replaced.
