Michel Petrucciani was a startling and original man, both by the nature of his physical condition and of his outstanding musical talent. This is the story of how he achieved fame and fortune through his indomitable will and force of personality. If the definition of true greatness is the realization of something that seems beyond human aspiration, then Michel Petrucciani had greatness in spades. Born with glass bone disease, and standing three feet tall as an adult, Michel Petrucciani overcame extraordinary obstacles to become an internationally acclaimed jazz artist. Giving his first professional concert at the age of 13, he rapidly ascended to the heights, playing alongside some of the world's finest jazzmen. (Wild Bunch Distribution)
