In the lobby of Prince Court Medical Centre, autistic savant pianist Clarence Kang comforts visitors with his music, playing stirring instrumental renditions of contemporary pop hits. “Sometimes, patients come by to wait for his performances with their IV drip bags in hand. Although Clarence has his difficulties, he is living proof that everyone has a purpose in life and can contribute in some way to society,” asserts his mother, Joyce Lim. Kang also performs at Gleneagles Hospital Kuala Lumpur, rotating between locations every month. As Lim says, “Music heals the soul.”
