Discordant Note...
Perhaps you remember the Piano Man that we spoke about in May
Guardian Unlimited | The Guardian | Piano Man breaks his silence
The mystery of the “piano man” that baffled medical experts and prompted a worldwide appeal appears to have been solved.
A hospital source told the paper: “A nurse went into his room last Friday and said, ‘Are you going to speak to us today?’, to which he simply replied, ‘Yes, I think I will’.”
But he has now admitted that he does not play the piano very well and only drew one because it was the first object that came to mind.
The patient, who Kent and Medway NHS trust have not officially identified, said he had been working in Paris but lost his job. He then travelled to Britain on a Eurostar train.
Having worked with mentally ill patients in the past, he is believed to have adopted certain mannerisms in a seemingly successful bid to fool experts. The Mirror claims that the hospital is considering taking legal action against him.
