Two years ago in June of 2021 I broke my left tibia, fibula, and some bones in my knee when I took a running leap off a porch!
This video was made as an experiment/joke to see if I could stand on that leg and play a difficult piece from memory.
I would like to dedicate this video to my surgeon Dr. Walmsley, physiotherapist Bob Lyeo, and all the team at Southlake who did a fantastic job of not only repairing my leg, but giving me the tools to use the leg as I had before the accident!
Thank you all for taking such good care of me and doing an awesome job at repairing my leg!
And thank you to my pianist (and partner) Andrew Gilpin (@canadacomposer) for "playing along" with this experiment!
