'Magical things happen with music that are against all odds and all limitations.'
Hosted by Claudia Winkleman, the Channel 4 series saw a number of
talented amateur pianists perform at train stations up and down the country, where they were secretly being filmed and watched by pop star Mika and classical pianist Lang Lang. The musicians had no idea that they were actually in a competition show, and that the finalists would get the chance to perform at London's Royal Festival Hall.Mika and Lang Lang eventually whittled the contestants down to Lucy, Jay, Sean and Danny, and while all four impressed the judges with their final performances, Lucy's"jaw-dropping" rendition of Debussy's Arabesque No. 1 came out on top.
"Magical things happen with music that are against all odds and all limitations," Mika said of Lucy's performance. "It's astonishing when it happens. When it happened in Leeds, when Lucy performed, it was jaw-dropping. It was the most humbling thing you could possibly see."
