I often hide a song inside another and another—“After You’ve Gone” inside “Poor Butterfly,” and almost always a few bars of “Humoresque” inside them both.

One day, Mr. Storer asks me to play at his radio station, five days a week, for more money than I have ever imagined.

Once people start hearing me on the radio, I’m asked to play all over the country. My music takes me farther and farther from home.

When I am at the piano, I close my eyes. I play clouds of notes, rivers of notes, notes that sound like skylarks singing and leaves rustling, like rain on a rooftop. I forget that my eyes aren’t good. I have everything I need.

Bandleaders call me. I tour with musicians through Ohio, to Chicago, Kansas City, and even New York City. I play with Adelaide Hall, Slam Stewart, and Tiny Grimes. I become famous.
