Six renowned pianists will explore jazz standards and original improvisations, performing as soloists and in duets. The emcee for the show is its creator, JAZZ.FM91 radio host and producer Jaymz Bee.

In August of 2004, Jaymz Bee produced the first version of "Happy Fingers: A Tribute to the Piano" to a sold out Mod Club Theatre at $100 per ticket. Now, thanks to the size of the main stage at Diesel Playhouse, the same type of show can be enjoyed for a mere $20 (plus service charges).

January 20th also acts as an unofficial CD release party for "One Lucky Piano", a CD tribute to The Montreal Bistro grand piano that features 17 local pianists as well as the final recording of the late, great, ragtime legend John Arpin. All profits from "One Lucky Piano" are used by JAZZ.FM91 for scholarships and bursaries, to support emerging musicians. The CD is in stores now, is available by mail at www.jazz.fm and will be available at the concert.

All shows are at 2pm and are all age events. The venue is licensed and a snack menu is available. Due to the nature of the music business, pianists may be substituted.

The line-up includes the following Sundays;

January 20, February 17, March 9 2008 and April 13 2008 @ 2pm
