Amtrak teamed up with YouTube video producer Rob Bliss to pull off an impressive stunt to bring some holiday cheer to (most) commuters hustling through Chicago's famous Union Station. This wonderfully creative video features a piano decorated in the holiday spirit — with a phantom pianist playing behind the scenes — and includes acts like an old man playing "Danny Boy" on his harmonica while the piano joins in, and a little girl playing "Chopsticks", while the piano comes in with the duet.
Commuters had no idea there was an actual pianist hiding in another room and controlling the keys, but they also shouldn't… what's the fun in that?! My favorite part of the whole video is seeing the angry businessman get so fed up with the piano that he loudly screamed "SHUT UP!" — yet the next man was so pleasantly surprised that he couldn't help but dance to the piano's lovely melodies. Really shows different personalities reacting to the situation their own way — with the music representing them. So cool.
