This French Pianist Has Been Playing For 102 Years And Just Released A New Album

Colette Maze, now 107, began playing the piano at age 5 and defied the social conventions of her day to embrace it as a profession rather than as a pastime. Her son first arranged for her performances to be recorded when she was in her 90s. She has just released her sixth album. (Family photo; Eleanor Beardsley/NPR)
