At the Austerlitz station a few years ago, there was this one guy that played a tune on a piano, then another guy that didn't know the other guy joined in and created an improvisation on the piano. Everyone else in the station really enjoyed it, and so did I. And I'm also very jealous that I didn't get to see it in person while the people in the station did. This makes me wonder, were there any of you that got to see this in person, or knew somebody that saw this in person?

Here's the link?

There's been a project in some US and European cities, to have pianos available in public place, for random strangers to enjoy playing. The phenom isn't limited to Austerlitz. I think it's a great thing!

I know that. Philadelphia needs to start having that as I would love to witness somebody on the piano as I'm walking by. It's that this particular improvisation is really neat, and the people who saw this in person were so lucky.

I once saw a very good performance by a ballerina at the station near Les Halles. I arrived almost one hour late for my appointment afterwards.

I know how you feel, I have little luck to chance upon these illusive street pianists.
