HITTING THE RIGHT NOTE - EVERY TIME

A BLIND and autistic musical genius performed a faultless three-hour classical piano concert - from memory.

Derek Paravicini, 27, performed works by Paganini, Bach, Pachelbel and Rimsky-Korsakov in Bristol.

He can't count, speak in sentences or dress himself but has memorised thousands of classical scores, pop tunes and jazz numbers after just one hearing.
