amin fada he must have played the piano before to donthat. No one can play a whole composition at first try of hear something. Because at first u dont know the notes, secondly rhythm and other technical skills he havent learned yet. But I guess he can work logically around it to find out how its played. Like he matches the tones in his head and then moves up or down the piano to find the other notes and then probably find the melody or something thats close to it.

Such an amazing story. The humility of a professionally trained classical pianist to recognize someone whose gifts are beyond their own is not often seen and so joyfully expressed. She is undoubtedly a one in a million type of teacher and musician. While schools want math and English at the forefront there is no question of the importance of music education when seeing such stories.
