Record attempt: Hans plays all 16 station pianos in one day

Hans Jansen from Zwolle went viral last year after someone made a video of him behind a station piano, singing Wicked Game by Chris Isaak.

After that online adventure, Hans now wanted to make a real record attempt. His goal: to complete all sixteen station pianos in one day by train. It started in Maastricht and ends on Tuesday evening in Leeuwarden.

Jansen came up with the idea after he became famous overnight last November. He plays the song 'Scare away the dark' by Passenger on every station. “I play that song with the idea that people should look more at each other again, instead of at their cell phones,” says Hans.

In daily life, the music lover is a teacher at a vocational school in Zwolle. He mainly taught himself to play the piano. “I like to touch and connect people with music.”
