Born:
Piano virtuoso Michel Petrucciani was born on December 28th 1962 in Orange France to Italian parents.

Because he was born with osteogenesis imperfecta; a condition that stunts growth and causes fragile bones and respiratory disorders, he had to have special extensions made for him to reach the pedals of the piano. The condition did not affect his hands, however, and he was able to study classical piano for 8 years
