This really has nothing to do with GG but since the people on this
list are interested in piano music, they might find it a curious story!
News bulletins on British TV today have been full of the story of an
unidentified man found by the police wondering on the seafront at
Sheerness, in Kent, around a month ago. He was wearing a soaking wet
formal
black suit and tie, and seemed disorientated. Since he was found, he
has
not given his
name; in fact he has not spoken a single word. He presumably is
suffering
from amnesia. In an attempt to get him tp communicate, he was given a
pencil and paper in the hope he might write his name.Instead. he drew a
detailed picture of a grand piano. Baffled, the social workers and
doctors
took him
to the hospital chapel, where there was a piano; and to their
amazement,
but still without speaking, the man sat down at the piano and treated
to
them to what they described as a 2-hour virtuoso recital of classical
music. Since then, he has played often on the piano, for hours at a
time
but curiously,
the medical staff seem not to have called in any musical expert to
identify
what he is playing or to comment on his ability (One TV report simply
said
it all sounded "classical" and that he appeared likely he was a
professional pianist.
