One day, a farmer tells a farm boy to take everything out of an old building and throw it away. ´It´s all rubbish,´ he says.
In the middle of all the rubbish, the boy finds a beautiful old piano. He has never played before, but now, when his fingers touch the piano, he begins to play. He closes his eyes and the music comes to him - and the music moves his fingers.
When he opens his eyes again, he knows that his life is changed for ever . . . Book added by Tatyana Ïîëüçîâàòåëåì Tatyana äîáàâëåíà êíèãà
