How can I watch Channel Four's The Piano, hosted by Claudia Winkleman?
It saw musicians perform at London's St Pancras station.
Over five parts, there will be performances on public pianos in Leeds, Glasgow and Birmingham, too.
From nonagenarians who have been playing for eighty years, to twelve-year-olds who have never played in pubic before there are heartfelt, emotional and uplifting performances take place, says Channel Four.
The piano performers don’t know they are being watched by Lang Lang, widely regarded as the greatest classical pianist of the modern era, and platinum selling pop superstar Mika.
Among those appearing on The Piano is multi-talented Islander Jay Eatwell.
