When Derek Paravicini was only 3, he taught himself how to play the piano by ear. At the time, with no reference, his technique involved a lot of elbows, karate chops and even some nose! Nevertheless, even at such a young age he had an amazing and completely intuitive grasp of harmony and music. This is the only recording that exists of Derek from that time, playing English Country Garden. It was shortly after this that he began piano lessons and started to refine his technique.
