They did this stunt at the Olympics opening ceremony.

People have played actually burning pianos (usually old, crap ones) but getting good tunes out of the instrument is not compatible with heating the strings that much, they detune and snap. I think they just used a keyboard built into an otherwise empty piano case with some gasoline.
