Chandigarh, June 8
A 108-year-old Poland-based woman is a talented pianist. Wanda Zarzycka, despite her age plays the piano effortlessly and every single day, an international website reports.
The surprising fact is that she broke her hands when she was 80, and was told by the doctors that she would never be able to play again.
But, she never gave up.
Wanda is a former dancer and with time developed her interest in music as a young girl. She graduated from Ukraine’s Lviv’s music conservatory in 1931.
Sadly, she couldn’t continue with playing the piano after World War II. Five years later, Wanda’s family moved from Lviv after which her piano was brought to Krakow, Poland, in 1944.
The piano, indeed, is special for Wanda as she inherited the instrument from her mother, who received it as a wedding gift.
Wanda Zarzycka’s piano is her most prized possession in her apartment in Krakow.
