Do the conditions mean that he practices at a particular time? No. In a particular way? Please rephrase. Does it mean that he needs an unusual prop to assist him? Yope, may be FA. | ||
| SmarterBrother (Mycroft)
|
Is the local factor anything to do with the climate? Or some social or economic factor? By "in a particular way" I had in mind that for some reason he had to practice in a way that would be considered unusual eg malking him to favour a particular hand more than the other, or favour shorter or longer pieces of music. | ||

Is the local factor anything to do with the climate? Closer to this, but may lead to FA. Or some social or economic factor? By "in a particular way" I had in mind that for some reason he had to practice in a way that would be considered unusual e.g. malking him to favour a particular hand more than the other, or favour shorter or longer pieces of music. Yes, his style of practice is unusual in that sense. | ||

Is the time of year relevant? | ||

My FA: am I wrongly assuming that he is alive? I cannot offer a straight answer to "unusually hot/cold" without a yardstick, as it might lead to an FA. Is he a living person? No. A fictional person? Yes! A cartoon character or such? Not really. Does he get paid for playing the piano? Does he do it as a hobby? The latter. Is he a child? No. Is the time of year relevant? No. | ||
