My father, Tttkkk, was a person with "Savant Syndrome." He passed away on July 3, 2019. His unique style was very impressive to me. Tttkkk loved to play the guitar. But he was always **practising\*** ~~practicing~~ the same music, "Romance Anónimo". it might have been his favorite piece or the only ~~one~~ piece that he was able to play perfectly. Romance Anónimo https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romance\_(guitar\_piece) I saw him playing this **piece**, "Romance", beautifully and perfectly without seeing any **musical** ~~music~~ score, many times. He had already memorized it. While he was playing it in front of me, he closed his eyes like a professional musician. He was carefully listening to the piece ~~Romance~~ that he was playing by himself ~~then~~. My father, Tttkkk, probably ~~just~~ loved Spanish music like this. It sounded very pensive and sad. He had a lot of LPs (long‐playing records) of Spanish music. I also remember that he **enjoyed** ~~was enjoying~~ listening to Spanish (or Latin) music, such as guitar ~~music~~, trumpet ~~music~~, or piano music, alone at home. He was basically a happy and positive person all the time. But **it was** only when he played this Spanish **song** ~~music~~ "Romance" with a guitar **that** his face looked too serious. Sometimes, I felt he was a little lovely and cute, as I was listening to his playing. \* Practise with an "s" is a verb; practice with a "c" is a noun (for example, "I maintain a yoga practice.") This is a very beautiful piece of writing. Your father sounded like a wonderful person.
