There is a new piano at Euston Station – meet the Kawai k300

Over the years, Markson Pianos has supported countless talented musicians on their musical journeys, supplying fine instruments to concert halls, studios, and private venues across the UK. While these projects have enabled artists to perform and flourish, initiatives such as our public pianos at London railway stations allow us to share music with the wider community, offering moments of joy and inspiration at the most unexpected times.
One of the UK’s busiest railway stations, Euston Station, now proudly features a Kawai K-300 upright piano, supplied by Markson Pianos, for all to enjoy. Thousands of commuters pass through the station each day, and this instrument offers them the opportunity to play, listen, or simply pause and savour the sound of a beautifully crafted piano. Sharing music lies at the very heart of our ethos, and moments like this bring immense pleasure to both performers and audiences alike. Our colleague Christian recently took a break from a busy day at the Albany Street showroom to visit Euston Station, where he performed a medley of tunes for the delighted station crowd. The response was heartwarming and perfectly illustrates the power of music to connect people and enrich everyday life
Music in public spaces provides more than entertainment — it creates a chance to unwind, connect with fellow commuters, and enjoy a moment of presence in the midst of a busy day. You will also find one of our pianos at Waterloo Station, which recently hosted a striking performance by Jessie J, captivating passersby and demonstrating how music can inspire, uplift, and transform ordinary moments into something extraordinary.
For Markson Pianos, projects like these are more than just installations. They represent a commitment to making music accessible to everyone, regardless of experience or background. By bringing high quality instruments into public spaces, we hope to spark creativity, encourage participation, and create shared experiences that resonate long after the final note has been played. We are proud to continue our work in the community, supporting musicians, inspiring commuters, and bringing the joy of music to the heart of the city. Visit our social media channels to see some of the wonderful performances mentioned above, and we look forward to hearing about your experiences with the community pianos.

With Thanks to Kawai UK for their support in this project and to Network Rail for bringing music to train stations.
