join us on a profound episode of "Interviews with Innocence with Marla Hughes" as we delve into the life-altering experiences of Dr. Tony Cicoria, an orthopedic surgeon with a unique twist of fate. Once a typical medical professional, Dr. Cicoria's life took an unexpected turn when he was struck by lightning in 1994, leading to a near-death experience that unveiled his unforeseen talent in classical piano music and composition.

In this episode, Dr. Cicoria shares his astonishing transformation from a board-certified Orthopedic Surgeon to a sudden musical savant, unraveling how a lightning strike led him to discover his hidden prowess in music. We'll explore his journey from the initial shock and the subsequent near-death and out-of-body experiences to his unexpected emergence as a composer and pianist.

Dr. Cicoria will take us through his talk at the IAND's International Conference, providing insights into his research and the spiritual aspects of human history that his experiences have illuminated. His story, featured in Dr. Oliver Sacks' "Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain," showcases the incredible interplay between music, the brain, and the human spirit.

Discover how Dr. Cicoria's compositions, featured in his CD "Notes From an Accidental Pianist" and his upcoming book "On the Other Side of Life," reflect his profound journey and the lessons he has gleaned about life, death, and the transcendent power of music.

Tune in to this captivating episode as Dr. Cicoria takes us on a journey of resilience, transformation, and the undeniable impact of the unseen forces that shape our lives.
