As a professional piano mover hats off for this guy. Wheel a concert grand 800lbs piano 4 times a week for the sake of touching people’s soul, I’m speechless.
I've always encouraged my children toward one single lifetime goal: "Make your corner of the world a better place because you were in it." This guy lives that idea in the most exemplary fashion.
that is a beautiful thing to encourage your children to do...I will tell all in my travel by bicycle that you inspired me to communicate this to the world if you don't mind.
@MichaelKingsfordGray God .. there's only one God. Exodus 3:13..But Moses asked " If I go to the people of Israel and tell them that the God of their fathers sent me, they will ask "Which God are you talking about? What shall I tell them?". "The Sovereign God", was the reply. Just say "I AM has sent me! Yes, tell them Jehovah the God of your ancestors Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, has sent me to you". (This is My eternal name, to be used throughout all the generations). I was reading the Bible when your comment popped up. Seems like God wants to talk to you Michael. 😀
@MichaelKingsfordGray would be a bleak world without the artists. the music, color, poems, literature, games,, architecture, that makes us humans not robots is what makes life interesting.
Rover Waters Have you any idea how sick the more normal, progressive members of society are of the word “fake”. Jesus, Donald. It’s getting really old. We’ve arrived at a place where if we don’t either like or understand something (anything) it’s perfectly okay to tell the world that it isn’t real. Yup, Rover ... it’s a fake piano ... the musician is fake ... especially the NEWS of this piano man is fake ... I need to get a better look at the sky and trees. I haven’t yet established their legitimacy. This is where most commenters would add the newly mandatory “Moron” ... but fuck it. You’ve heard it before and didn’t listen.
Uhhh every person in this video is at least middle class and capable of buying a ticket to a concert. Virtue signal fail. And now I wait with baited breath for the replies. derp derp incoming.
Moving 800 pound of positive vibes to erase billion pounds of Negative vibes. Respect to this musician who choses to comfort all walks of life from different complication problems. Peace 😊
This guy deserves an Oscar for the effect that his music has on people. It's a diseased world we live in but once in a blue moon someone comes along and changes people's feelings. Good man keep it up and you could change hostility to civility mate.
I don’t think Ian knows what an Oscar is. It’s not just a generic award you give out to whoever you like. An Oscar is an award specifically for film achievements.
I know what Ian means ......and I would say the same.........better than some of those druggy paedophiles that get these so called Oscars. Who cares whether he was grammatically ...correct, get over yourselves.
Take a bow Colin Huggins. You are such a talented,kind, generous,and remarkable human being. I am proud and fortunate that you are a fellow New Yorker.
Don't call it a gift it is devaluing what he has done. Learning an instrument is WORK. HOURS AND HOURS or grueling work. It is not something you can do from birth, it is something that comes from EFFORT. I say this as someone who self-taught himself his second language, and am also learning the piano. It is not a "gift". It is HARD WORD and GUTS. Do not make it seem like he didn't work for it. It is a diservice.
sonicsabbath I'm sorry I wasn't trying to make light of his musical dedication my point was his willingness to share his talent with others to bring a moment of happiness to all which to me is truly a gift a gift from the Heart.
@@sonicsabbath I'm guessing you're missing the context here. The word gift in no way devalues what he is doing. He is gifting people with what he is doing. Think of it that way instead.
When I was a child I used to lie under the piano for hours, while my father was playing ... mostly Chopin and Debussy. I became a musician. Now these days he is dying soon and this video touched me deeply. 😭
@@MariaGoJa It's so beautiful that you chose this path. What a lovely way to rest his soul. No matter his health, I'm sure he's very proud. I hope all the best for you.
what this chap does is really wonderful; and he dgoes to extreme lengths to show it; he really does care, and in the snow!! But true lasting inner peace is a Person, not a moment of emotion, no matter how long that emotion lasts. When you have the Prince of Peace in your soul, then your peace will last forever. Isaiah 9:6; Ephesians 2:13-14.
Pretty amazing.... My grandmother played beautifully I took her to a retirement home . She set at the piano and I saw all of the elderly come to life. It was magic they set up eyes opened and they came aware and alive.The power of music is a gift we give ourselves and others. Tku .✌
Beautiful. This musician has a gift of cleansing bodies, ridding negative energy by extracting tears. Amazing one of a kind. His dedication is impenetrable. Bless his soul. Thank you to whomever took the time to document this gentleman
How could anyone give this a thumbs down People just don't care for one another any more nor do they see the amazing HEART of certain individuals Mr. Huugins you are Blessed and thank you for the JOY you bring.........................................
Here's what you do. Do not even look at the thumbs down numbers. Maintain your positivity and feedback for what is uplifting. Haters gonna hate - don't let them change your mission.
I have no words for this just tears of joy and appreciation for music and how it mutes all the negativity out . I have to go see this guy , hope he’s still in NYC during covid
Ahh... the vibration... tapping into the sense of our true selves in the spirit world before we began our Human incarnation on Earth... Such love brings us to tears.
My brother always lays under my piano for a lot of his time when visiting me. It's his reserved space. I'm so happy you are doing this. Sharing your gift with others is one of the greatest offerings to the World you can do. It was so joyful to me listening to you play pieces I played forever. I hope my boys hear you, they will recognize the songs. You are a very special and loving person. Be careful and stay HAPPY, the World needs you. A Colorado Mountain Grandma USA 💜✌️🌏🌍🌎🎵

Oh, geez....here I am, having my morning Cheerios watching this with my cheeks soaked in that salty brine from my eyes. Again this is proof that MUSIC IS THE INTERNATIONAL LANGUAGE OF PEACE.
I’ve always wanted to put my ear on the piano while a great performer played it. But laying under it......🤯. Please don’t change for anyone. Stay just the way you are🙏🏽
i have a snap of a friend who opened the lid of the grand piano....put his head inside....and casually inserted his head.....and closed the lid. The lid weighs about 10 pounds. Why did he do it you may ask? Well a class mate was playing Impromptu Fantasia at full tempo and precision
I love people who are genuine and do great things like this in the world...No most people wouldn't dream of doing this, but what a unique experience he gives to all sharing his incredible talent, making people's day just a little bit happier...just think if everyone gave just a little bit of their incredible gifts to the world like this:) - hats off to you Colin...
This guy is great. I’m in NYC and have sat and watched him several times. Why talented. Must admit the first time I saw him what impressed me was he had a baby grand in the park. Fantastic and friendly. You will realize an hour went by in no time.
I've always said, "Music is the Key to the Universe". It can bring us together and make you feel emotions you never knew were there. God's greatest gift to man.
Nothin like the Village....noboby like New Yorkers....this marveloous artist is inimitable...words fail me (for a change)...emotionally intellectual: intense energy and a placid,Paul Simon like persona...only in the Apple and this artist is nothing sort of electrifying...into the maelstrom indeed and lifting souls above the stratosphere...
DEEP RESPECT! A Blessed Soul he talks and plays music from his heart sharing his Gift with others without expecting anything in return. Namaste from Holland.
Colin Huggins you are a Hero your Surname befits you because you Hug people with your music every time you play . You have already clearly succeeded in the first part of your mission keep going you will achieve your dream - wishing you continued success from across the Pond England UK

Bravo, Colin Huggins !
Well there is always the money you get from the end of your performance...
Touch a soul lots of hits..
I agree with you. Real pianos sound so much nicer.
Thank you for healing the world. You are an angel.
What a wonderful gentleman and a human being and an artist. I cannot understand how anyone will press the don't like bottom, do you?
Knowing you push that grand piano alone almost everyday across the city already makes me wanna cry.

I’ve read an awful lot of comments but don’t really remember any of them, this one is a keeper.
Music IS our universal language
man truly brings complete random strangers together, wish the world was filled with people like him
It is we all just need to listen and love each other.
This is insane. He could've just gotten an upright piano, but the fact that he carries around a grand piano shows his dedication to music.
Shows he is in form
So sooo grateful my mother introduced me to classical music. It was such a constant in my home as a child.
What a beautiful way to show love to a very lost world....God bless you x

Something about the piano that just reaches deep into your core and pulls out the emotions you don't deal with. And for that I love it.
Music is medicine, the best one...
The world is a better place with these kinds of artists and maybe all artists.
Definitely not all..they can be very entitled or even sociopathic, it's really not as simple as an artist=good person
Does the Kardashianz counts as artist?
@@chasingenigma7482 is the world a better place with them?
@MichaelKingsfordGray would be a bleak world without the artists. the music, color, poems, literature, games,, architecture, that makes us humans not robots is what makes life interesting.
Hmmm, lets see... There was once a painter who became a dictator and changed the world as we know it, in a most horrific genocidal way.
Wow...... This is so emotional. But how does he keep the tune of the piano with all those movements and transportation?!
he probably tunes it way, way more often than normal piano owners would.
@@FreakieFan but everytime we move the piano. Tuning will be off a little.....
Maybe Colin has perfect pitch and has learned how to tune a piano?

Yes! The best comment ever...It speaks of TRUTH ❤️
Piano is one of the most beautiful thing in the world...
