Derekizing Fly Me to the Moon π
Derek Paravicini was born blind and severely autistic, yet he is an incredible pianist and musical entertainer. We felt a Derekized version of Fly Me to the Moon was long overdue, so here's one from Derek's live Facebook request session held on February 14th, 2017. We hope you enjoy his improvisations. If you would like to hear this, or any other song in different styles or keys, please ask us and we'll pass it on to Derek!π
