Donald Gould’s only goal was make a couple of bucks, but little did he know that he would go viral on the Internet.
Aroar Natasha happened to be walking down the street when she heard someone beautifully playing the piano. She was stunned to find out that it was a homeless man who was performing.
According to People, Gould was a former U.S. Marine who played the clarinet in the Corps. His dream was to become a music teacher, but that changed when his wife died in 1998.
He developed an addiction to drugs and lost his son to Social Services.
In the caption of her video Natasha wrote, “Sarasota installed ‘public pianos’ throughout downtown. This homeless man now has the opportunity to be something other than just a nuisance.”
The video has gotten three million views on Facebook making Gould a Sarasota celebrity. “I was thinking I could just put my hat on the piano and make a couple dollars and get tips. I didn’t expect it to jump out to this.”
