...I was listening to this podcast today, on NPR, about traumatically induced acquired musical savant syndrome

Quote

In 2006, Derek Amato suffered a major concussion from diving into a shallow swimming pool. When he woke up in the hospital, he was different. He discovered he was really good a playing piano. Yes, we're serious. Derek is one of just a few dozen known "sudden savants" or "accidental geniuses"—people who survive severe head injuries and come out the other side with special gifts for music or math or art

 

I think you know what you need to do.:biker:

It didn’t work for me either.

i had a friend the one place we lived that played piano. He could play any song, written in any style and it always came out boogie woogie. He was amazing. I asked him how he did that and he said he didn’t know. He said he couldn’t not do it.
