How blind 'The Piano' star Lucy speaks through the piano | Classic FM
Ойын-сауық
Lucy, a young blind and neurodivergent pianist who loves the music of Chopin and Debussy, won hearts around the world when she appeared on Channel 4’s The Piano.
In October 2023, she made her Royal Albert Hall debut at Classic FM Live with Viking.
Her piano teacher, Daniel Bath, spoke to us backstage before the concert about how Lucy uses the piano to communicate. Daniel and Lucy’s mother, Candice, share her musical beginnings and the experience of appearing on The Piano.

Dont forget her lovely mother. It is through her nurturing that Lucy is able to express herself in this way. I have a lot of admiration for her parenting skills.
To Lucys coach,tutor and clearly friend of the family...To you sir, I salute you. What a truly wonderful human being you are in these days of war and unjust..You shine a light in this young ladys life who in turn brings unlimited joy and pleasure to thousands. Be proud of yourself, for you are a true star also.

What a poignant, beautiful soul is the very talented Lucy - I could listen to her all day. 💕 Kudos to maestro Bath for bringing her out into the light! 👏🏻
Some of the most colourful playing I’ve heard.

That reminds me Chopin's music, eventually you don't distinguish notes, just sensual emotions.
we mus never forget the teachers...who stand in the background...transparent to the on goings...... we also have alot to learn from those whom we think are disadvantaged.....for in their aspect....they have gained capabilities beyond most others !!.... nothing short of heavenly inspired skills...!!
What a beautiful gift Lucy is💎
It's so true what Daniel is saying--for Lucy music isn't a simple hobby or even a passion. This is how she communicates with the world and expresses herself, her feelings, her thoughts, and her emotions. This is also why with proper technical training she will probably rank as one of the greatest pianists of all time. I'm pretty sure that what she does cannot be done by neurotypical people.
In a word...Angelic.
Gorgeous absolutely phenomenal
So pleased I found this Video, as yesterday I left a comment under another video, after having watched The incredible Lucy film, where you were working with another student with the same dedication you have for Lucy. I hope you will read my comment there too. I completely agree with the comment made below. You are a shining light for all of us to truly honour and cherish the self agency and gifts in another human being. It's such a pleasure to hear you speak with so much eloquence and pleasure about Lucy. And of course Lucy's beautiful playing, her music brimming with so much aliveness and vitality.
Lucy is so inspiring. She shows that people who are neurodivergent and have extra challenges like being blind, still have amazing potential. They just need to be given the right environment and opportunities.
God’s gift to the world! ❤😢🇬🇧👍🙂🇺🇸
