With childhood abuse, drug addiction and suicide attempts behind him, James is not your typical concert pianist but with his passion and rock-star aura, he is bringing new audiences to classical piano. In 'Piano Man', James plays the music of his favorite composers, including Bach, Beethoven and Chopin, many of whom had, like James, troubled lives.
