For the sighted people here, the feat isn't in tickling the ivories. The feat here is memorizing the hundreds of notes that make up a classical piece.
Today there are assistive tech apps to help with this but they are pretty hard to use.
This person has a killer memory plus piano talent
My blind GF is a flourish.
I just want his accomplishment to be recognized for what it is.

Video Description:
The video opens with a young man seated in front of the camera dressed in all black. He opens with a quick note about how the song is dedicated to his friend Doug and several photographs of him and Doug show on screen. The song itself begins at 0:46 and shows him seated at a baby grand piano and the camera does not move for the rest of the video.
