A man living in the same area gave a grand piano as a gift to a boy with great musical talent but poor family circumstances.



On the 30th of last month (local time), US weekly magazines People and abc news introduced tuner Bill Magnusson, who presented a grand piano to an 11-year-old boy with autism but who had a genius talent for the piano.



Previously, Jude (Jude Nyame Yie Kofie, 11) had never learned to play the piano, but he showed off his outstanding piano skills and became a hot topic when he was introduced on the air last September as a 'genius boy'.



At the time of the broadcast, Jude's father said, "My son was born prematurely and underwent heart surgery due to lack of oxygen in his body. Eventually, he was diagnosed with autism, but Jude has a God-given talent."



At the same time, he said, "I'm sorry I can't afford to buy you a good piano," and said that Jude plays on an old electric piano at home.

Bill, who heard Jude's story through a broadcast, said in an interview with the local media, "As soon as I first heard it, I thought the boy's performance was on the level of Mozart."



Recognizing Jude's talent as a piano tuner, he gave Jude a grand piano as a legacy from his father, saying, "This boy deserves the best instruments."



Jude's father thanked Bill, saying, "I really didn't know there would be a grand piano for my son in the living room."

In addition to the piano gift, Bill, who introduced Jude to his teacher, added, "Maybe my father would have wanted to help the genius boy if he had seen Jude."



Jude's piano teacher praised his talent, saying, "Jude is full of enthusiasm and really eager to learn. He learns new things quickly if you teach him."



Lastly, Bill said, "The ripple effect of this gift for the next 70 to 80 years will be immeasurable."



Local netizens who heard the story of Jude and Bill said, “My heart warms”, “Bill, who recognized a genius, seems to remain a legend even more”, “Bill, who used his legacy to help others, is so cool”, “Look forward to great performances from now on, Jude.” I'll do it" and so on.
