It takes a lot of talent to play the piano, let alone doing so with a stranger among throngs of people.

But when Zaouche Nassim saw Gerard playing the piano at the Paris Austerlitz Train Station in France, he knew he wanted to join in.

“The other guy joined without saying any word, music was the communication channel,” the man who took the video said.

The recording happened during the summer of 2013, but Nassim got in touch with the men only recently.
