— Late last year, 11-year-old Jude Kofie received an incredible surprise. Whoever said the best things come in small packages has never been gifted a grand piano. "All for free," said his father, Isaiah."Who does that?"
To understand how we got here, we have to go back a year-and-a-half, when Isaiah heard a noise coming from the basement. There was an old keyboard down there, but no one knew how to play it, certainly not his autistic son — or so he thought. Jude had never had a lesson. No one taught him how to play. But Isaiah got Jude a larger keyboard to see what more he could do. "You think it's a miracle?" CBS News asked Jude. Magnusson is a piano tuner. He saw a
about Jude and heard him play. He learned Jude's parents immigrated from Ghana and were raising four children, as well as sending money back home to their family in Ghana.Using his father's inheritance, Magnusson bought a $15,000 piano — estimated to be worth $45,000 — and promised to tune it once a month for the rest of his life. He's also paying for Jude to get professional lessons.
