Donald Gould had been playing the piano on this rainy Thursday in the Twice’s Nice resale store in Sarasota. For whatever reason, Gould remarked, it felt nice to amuse and lighten the mood, making people forget about their lives and troubles.
Since becoming viral in 2015, the pianist with a classical education has been entertaining other people with his performance. His video of playing the piano in Sarasota was posted online on social media and ultimately received massive views.
That gave Gould several chances, one of which was singing the patriotic song before an NFL match at the San Francisco 49ers NFL game.
Even though he was anxious standing in front of about 80,000 people, he had to concentrate. He finally had a bigger audience than he’d ever imagined. He was distracted but still managed to perform.
Gould has presented performances all around the globe, most recently in Germany for the past four years. He’s currently striving to construct residences in the Sarasota region. Although Donald is very successful, Laura Licoski of Facing Homeless Bradenton says they are still trying to keep him away from the streets.
Given his popularity and notoriety, Licoski stated that Donald had been the same person since childhood. Most people never realise that he is still going through more complicated problems. And no one likes to speak about or confront it, but Donald has to ensure that he has the appropriate personnel and services to move off the streets effectively.
Walk on Water, Donald’s new album was published. He’s composing music for “America’s Got Talent” auditions. He says a film about his biography is under production. He is upbeat about the next stage.
Gould added that he appreciates everything and everyone that supports and follows him.
