At four pm today, Jools Holland will be performing live at Canary Wharf tube station and you can watch live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/YamahaPianosOfficial. The musician, big band leader and broadcaster is launching the second #Platform88 piano as part of the partnership between Yamaha and Transport for London (TfL) to bring more music to passengers.
The two-year #Platform88 project, which takes its name from the number of keys on a piano, provides opportunities for anyone to play the instruments and entertain fellow passengers. During the next two years, the pianos will ‘commute’ around the TfL network, the organisation says: ‘…giving millions of passengers the platform to showcase their musical talents’.
