When A Little Boy Joins in Abba Dancing Queen Public Piano Improv | Cole Lam

[@ColeLam]

You can meeting loads of interesting people when you are out playing at the public piano at St Pancras. Usually they don't cause international incidents but are loads of fun and a great chance to meet other musicians. Sometimes you can even meet and hopefully inspire the next generation of pianists! I had just finished playing Abba, and my dad asked a gentleman if he played and wanted to jump on the piano. It's a public piano and it's all about sharing! Well, it turns out he's amazing - his name is Fraser Bernstein @MrBearmanification and love how he just flows with the music. I couldn't stop myself joining him and then the magic happened. Played Dancing Queen, and then Fraser went into Mamma Mia. The crowd forms, but then a little boy is caught in the music. He's so incredibly cute and super polite. He asks "Can I do it?" Of course you can! And then he joins in. The next generation of pianists has started!

Yeah loved the little boy joining in. He has it, just needs nurturing.

[@andrearoyd2942]

The world should unite through music - I'm 75 and I think the music of my youth UNITED the world If only we made music and not war ! PEACE.

[@Useless_Knowledge07]

Little man is going to be playing piano in public when he gets older! That was a good start thanks to Cole and Frasier.

[@Christine-g2f]

Those 2 young men melted my heart. Not only were they amazing on the piano but the kindness shown to the little boy that got caught up in the music. Couldn't stop watching.

[@Fredaslee]

That was brilliant and the little boy should be encouraged if he loves music. Glad mum didn't drag him away. He didn't spoil anything because the 2 pianists were so great at their job.

[@YorkshireTripper.]

Fraser was great the transition to mama mia was smooth you can tell he knows his way around a piano .

[@tammyjohnson8150]

What you did for that boy will set the course and passion of his life’s hopes and dreams! Just a moment in time makes all the difference. You men have beautiful souls! There’s no greater joy than seeing the beauty of childs joy! ❤ You are giants amongst men!

[@sdmcdaniel2255]

I love the way the didn't push the little one away, but encouraged him to join in! What a way to inspire the little one with the thirst for music! Hopefully his mom and dad will get him started in music now, while he's still enthusiastic! Music helps so much, in many ways, to help students get the most out of their education. It teaches them discipline, hand/eye coordination, it boosts their confidence, gives them a strong foundation in math that they will be able to relate to later in life, plus gives them a hobby that they can always come back to! My youngest plays violin, guitar and percussion, and even now, at 22 years old, he still plays!

[@Huckerdoo_doodle]

... and the kindness you displayed to that little boy will stay with him forever.

[@catherinehazur7336]

Great 4 handed piano cover by two improvisers!!! The little guy already loves the piano!! Thank you both for encouraging him

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE hearing ABBA being played!!! They have been one of my ALL TIME FAVOURITE bands ever since I was a wee girl!!!! My Dad had MILLIONS of their tapes!!!!! (I'm DEFINITELY showing my age when I talk about tapes as opposed to CDS!!!!) J

[@lisaperry5999]

Me 2 loved roller skating on a Saturday night to ABBA

[@NAWennerholm]

ABBA was one of my dad's favorite band and Just lost three months ago. And hearing this just brings back the memories of. My childhood and how I just lost my father. I was born at the end of April 1973 so I am 51. And my dad Died at age 79 and his 80th birthday is September 19th. He was born in 1944. And my dad was hoping to try and reach his 80th but sadly he didn't make it. At Least he passed in his sleep.

Thanks Cole, I think this was back last Winter (2023). I was with you at St Pancras on that day. You and Fraser made a great duet with Abba music. I recall having a chat with Fraser after and he is a fan of musical theatre, just like me. Not that usual for young men of his age but let's hope more people take an interest in musical theatre as there is really some great music that comes out of some of those shows. The Greatest Showman, Les Miserables, Phantom of the Opera, Frozen, Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, the list is endless. Loved this.

[@FraserBernstein]

I remember our chat Bob - was very insightful. Hope you're well!

[@bobtoastmaster5442]

@@FraserBernstein Hi Fraser, Glad you picked up on my comment. I try to get out with Cole and his Dad (Chi) as often as I can, distributing flyers to try to get Cole's subscribers up to a million. He isn't far short. Hope to meet up with you again.

It's amazing when you play with others regardless of their age.. you encourage others to have fun through music.. Thank you for all the kindness and love you share through your music. ❤

You and me both! As someone who has been studying Music for most of her life (I just turned 49 on the 17th of this month) I HAVE to say that I AM SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO INSANELY JEALOUS of Cole's ability to listen to a piece/song he's never played before once and be able to play it flawlessly!!!!!!

[@sax5055]

BRAVO for encouraging the young man. I played guitar in children’s rooms from as soon as they could stand (9 months to a year) through 5th grade. I had a 20 minute repertoire of singalong songs. But inevitably, kids gravitated to the guitar. They wanted to “play along.” I found a Honer classical guitar that retailed for $80…it was amazingly good (and yes, same company that makes world famous harmonicas). I never discouraged a child from approaching the guitar , even though I knew it was going to take a few whacks. I would teach many how to lightly strum rather than grab the strings. I eventually had a few students emerge over the years. NOTE: I also play harmonica…but we didn’t share those 😂🤧🤒😉
