Medway Maritime Hospital - The Piano Man

The Piano Man

An unidentified man who became known as "Piano Man" was treated at Medway Hospital during April, 2005. The man was found wandering the streets in Sheerness, wearing a soaking wet suit and tie. Despite many attempts to communicate with him, he remained silent. When given a pen and paper he drew a grand piano. When taken to a piano in the hospital chapel, he played classical music non-stop for four hours. After four months he revealed his identity as Andreas Grassl from Bavaria, and he returned home.

Famous quotes containing the words piano and/or man:

    There was an old, old house renewed with paint,
    And in it a piano loudly playing.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    George Peatty: Tell me something, wouldya Sherry? Just tell me one thing. Why did you ever marry me anyway?
    Sherry Peatty: Oh, George. When a man has to ask his wife that, well, he just hadn’t better, that’s all. Why talk about it? Maybe it’s all to the good in the long run. After all, if people didn’t have headaches what would happen to the aspirin industry?
    Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)
