We saw Michel perform in Manchester in 1996.I wasn't aware of his disability before the concert. When he was carried on to the stage and sat at the piano we were surprised. My wife who was sat with me had a brother with the same condition as Michel. The concert was unbelievable and we both were tearful for the whole session. It was the most unforgettable evening ever.

Michel Petrucciani (French pronunciation: ​[miʃɛl petʁutʃani]; Italian: [petrutˈtʃaːni]; 28 December 1962 - 6 January 1999)[1] was a French jazz pianist. From birth he had osteogenesis imperfecta, a genetic disease that causes brittle bones and, in his case, short stature. He became one of the most accomplished jazz pianists of his generation despite having pain in his arms. Osteogenesis imperfecta seemed to contribute greatly both to Petrucciani's personality and his playing style. By his own account, he was in almost constant physical pain.[7] Yet, he was known for his cheerful, playful, even cavalier personality. He said, "I love humor, I love to laugh, I love jokes, I love silliness, I love that, I think it's great, I think laughter is worth a whole lot of medicine."[7] In 1994, he was granted the Order of the Légion d'honneur in Paris. In the late 1990s, Petrucciani's lifestyle became increasingly taxing. He was performing over 100 times per year, and in 1998, the year before he died, he performed 140 times. He became too weak to use crutches and had to resort to a wheelchair. His final manager said, "He was working too much - not only recording and doing concerts, but he was always on television, and he was always doing interviews. He got himself overworked, and you could see it. He pushed too much." In his later years Petrucciani was known to drink heavily.[3] Petrucciani died from a pulmonary infection a week after his 36th birthday. He was interred in Le Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris, one tomb away from Frédéric Chopin.[3] On 12 February 2009, the French music channel Mezzo broadcast a special event paying homage to Petrucciani on the 10th anniversary of his death.

@@haywoodjablome440 What a bit of bullshit! Do pull yourself together, and think before putting your thoughts out on the ether. What being born a white male into a world of privilege in his particular case has little to do with anything.

I use to see this guy occasionally late night on television back in the 90's. It blew my mind.

Mad respect for this Man. I love his versions his skill! 🇵🇷✊🏾

Michel Petrucciani, God took a great thing from Michel. But gave him something huge. To see him in a cafe or hotel, just another cripple... but as soon as his hands touched the keyboard... God, how much he is missed.

I love this man's spirit! One of the most sublime performances I've ever heard, and I've heard many...

Love the song, the mood and especially the way Michel plays it - the nostalgia he must feel, I can only imagine - he's a wonderful soul................

Просто божественно! Высочайший класс. Спасибо! Спасибо🙏💕

Best versione EVER of this masterpiece.

What flows out of those hands is a sound that many artists couldn't achieve, so crisp and immaculate.

This man is genius! He didn't just overcome his affliction, he left it in the dust. Speechless.

De los mejores y talentosos músicos, que he podido ver y escuchar:; El "Enano Maldito", como alguien por ahí, dijo. Un Monstruo👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙏

One of my favorite pianist. So much depth, feeling and mastery of the piano. Charles Lloyd sure knew what he was doing when he hired him to join his band. What he accomplished at such an early age was astounding! RIP

Gorgeous dissonances. A brilliant, supremely personal take on a great standard.

...what a touch he had!

Creo que más que entender hay que dejar al corazón opinar, es inconmensurable, amo esto

Breve como él, su paso por la vida. Dejó un legado extraordinario.

I’ve just heard Micheal Petrucciani play Around Midnight and nothing prepares you for this. I cheered, I shouted, I fist pumped the air, I cried, I stood and cheered, it’s absolutely everything you hoped it was going to be, I’m so proud to have heard it and I can’t wait for you to hear it. GAH

Nice appreciative comment from you, well deserved ! May I suggest that next time you put this on, listen in silence sir..... Ni disrespect intended, and hope, none taken.
