FOR THE LEFT HAND

At age 5, Norman Malone discovered he was a natural at the piano. Tragically, when Norman turned 10, his father attacked him with a hammer to the head, leaving him paralyzed on his right side. Undaunted, Malone began a lifelong quest to reclaim his place at the piano- mastering  some of the most difficult music ever written for left hand alone – and never telling anyone of his deepening virtuosity. In 2015, at age 78,  Malone revealed his story (to the Chicago Tribune), prompting belated invitations to perform across America. Nearly 70 years after his tragic attack, Malone launches a much-delayed, triumphant concert career.
