Isn't it grand?
Eleven-year-old Jude Kofie, of Aurora, Colorado, demonstrated a remarkable talent no one anticipated when he discovered an old keyboard and, without any lessons, began playing - a talent piano tuner Bill Magnusson termed "Mozart level." Correspondent Steve Hartman reports on generosity that was music to Jude's ear.

Good souls abound from Jude, to his mom and dad, to his guardian angel in Bill Magnusson, to the wonderful Steve Hartman knowing just how to tell this story (let alone the unnamed producer). Can't wait to see Jude headlining someday. Salute to all.
Steve Hartman shares the best stories. Autism genius! Beautiful souls connected.
Everything about this story is a miracle of kindness and hope 💞

Yes.
I see that there are still true human beings in this world that give all just to make sure a young boy lives up to his potential. Cry worthy.
I hope you will cover this young man’s journey through the years… keep him in the spotlight please.

Yes, let's hope that he doesn't fall victim to that "systemic racism" that CBS has been hammering us with the past couple of years.

Agreed.
My friend has a autistic son who can hear a song once and can replay it on a piano immediately. Truly amazing.
I'm a piano technician too. Bill didn't skimp on the piano, he got him a great piano that will last.
I wish nothing but the best for this talented boy. I love the generous spirit of this piano tuner.
This is love at its purest. Because of this angel the universe sent to bring this young man's gift to full force. Thank you for this inspiring story. May your angels find you who is watching or reading this.
I should know by now to watch any Steve Hartman story with a box of tissues within reach. So beautiful!
Stories like these remind us that there is still much good in this world. God is good!

He’s incredibly talented! I want to hear more from him. I wish they’d let him play longer.
That boy is blessed with an incredible gift 😢
Beautiful soul. This is what angels do.

I agree. But he needs to learn to read music. It’s for a future in the music industry. He certainly surpasses reading since he plays by ear. Just to cover all bases in the industry. He’s right. It is a miracle.
Thanks Steve for the positive stories you bring.Stay safe everyone, and Happy New Year.
That is truly beautiful
Great story ... the kid is phenomenal and Bill is a great human being
Talent is to be appreciated, not exploited. What a great story 🤍🤍🤍
This kid was on the Kelly Clarkson show with his dad this week also.
What a beautiful story... one sweet man opening the door for a child and a family to a future that brings enchantment to the world. 💖
Love Hartman’s final conclusion ❤
Thank you for this beautiful story of love and support from a stranger!
Just saw him on the Kelly Clarkson Show. So totally blown away!
Omg I have played piano for 25 years and I would say he is at the same level without having any lessons as a little kid! So crazy.
Steve Hartman has continually brought us stories that touches the heart and renews our faith in the "Good" of Humanity....a precious gift that cannot be overstated. Thank you
God bless each of them. Bill's kindness and generosity is beautiful 🙏🏽♥️ Well done,Jude!

Jane Pauley, as soon as I heard that story about Isaiah and Jude and the kid’s surprised look on his face when he saw that enormous BABY GRAND PIANO as STEVE HARTMAN reported on today’s edition of SUNDAY MORNING, I KNOW THAT I’VE SEEN THESE 2 GUYS BEFORE. They were interviewed by talk show host KELLY CLARKSON A FEW DAYS EARLIER AND THEY PLAN TO PERFORM ON THE SAME SHOW LATER THIS YEAR. I’M KENNETH HUANG, AND I WATCH “SUNDAY MORNING” ON WBZ TV 4 IN BOSTON 1/8/23.
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽bless them all
Goodness!!💜💜
