"Mom" had made him a wonderful tuxedo and the cute factor was huge. The audience all applauded and he bowed. He sat down to play. Now this young man was at the stage where he only played on the white keys. The piece began on "C". He began on "B" and because his finger pattern was fixed, the entire tune was wrong. The audience, one has to assume, thought it was a much avant-garde piece than it was and applauded appreciatively when he finished. He took a well-rehearsed bow. When he walked by the adjudicator's table he looked up at my friend and whispered "What the H*** was the matter with that piano?!?" ]]> 2020-11-07 01:05:44 UTC https://padlet.com/kiwanisfestivalstratford/61u1rifk5stvn3d8/wish/899507059 kiwanisfestivalstratford https://padlet.com/kiwanisfestivalstratford/61u1rifk5stvn3d8/wish/900194764 2020-11-07 16:47:34 UTC https://padlet.com/kiwanisfestivalstratford/61u1rifk5stvn3d8/wish/900194764
