Yes, but if his doctor would not have told him to try music therapy for his depression when he was young, he might have never known he had that hidden talent.
I think that the whole profession thing was better focused in the earlier centuries when one was actually guided to do what he/she was talented to do best at a young age. So if someone was talented in musicanship at a very young age, he/she would be trainned to be a musician and live/act like one for the rest of his life, others would respect him for that, and that would become his life. There´s alot of people that are talented in something, but will never know in what because they have never tried it, or no one has ever pointed it out to them.
It´s also nice to see how music therapy can help with alot of health issues.
