As an infant prodigy he played his own compositions in pianoforte at age of 9 in the Richard Wagner Concert Hall of the Munich Palace...Thomas Mann was present during this concert and was inspired from the amazing playing and character of Loris which gave him the idea to write his masterpiece novel Das Wunderkind.
