Nice idea.
I have sent my press kit expressing my interest in being a guest pianist for the Festival next season.

Walter Ramsey

Feeling a bit jaded, Walter? If young people lost interest in becoming concert pianists, what would all the judges do with themselves every time a competition came around? I think they might just go completely bonkers without hearing the temporal surfacing of an endless stream of warhorses that gallop just under the general stream of consciousness year after year.

However, I tend to agree (I'm jaded too), but maybe for just a few generations, until the current youngest of the best we have today become old (possibly jaded). Then, maybe a resurgence of focus on developing a few new concert pianists may prove apropos.
