Beverly's musical prodigy, Austin Davy

When Davy was 7, he learned a classical music song from a CD by ear and played in it on the piano. He started taking lessons at 9, and became serious about the piano in high school. He also became enamored with musical theater, and joined Boston Children’s Theatre as an actor and singer when he was 16. “I learned of his ability as a musician and was blown away,’’ Clark recalled. Shown at left: Davy shows off his animated conducting style during a rehearsal for the show.
