Award winning author, Kevin Bazzana, explores the bizarre, untold life story of Ervin Nyiregyházi. A brilliant and eccentric musician, he was a remarkable prodigy: at eight he performed at Buckingham Palace, and when he was thirteen a psychologist published a book about him. The composer Arnold Schoenberg called him an ‘utterly extraordinary’ pianist of ‘incredible originality and conviction’, yet today he is all but forgotten.
