WELL, i am 77yrs old, and also play piano, I started when i was about 5yrs old, and all i can say is ,this young man is far better than me, one of the things we used to do was to learn to play in the dark, as that teaches you where the notes are on the keyboard, but unlike this young man, we could cheat, and put the light back on,
I would realy like to see, and hear just how far he progresses, in say the next ten years, what with TV, and the Internet, I think he could be a very familar name in the world of music, something like the late great Errol Garner,
Thanks for posting,

You are welcome. It will be interesting to see if he will stay with classical music or switch to jazz. There are many fine blind pianists in both genres. :-D
