Am I crazy for thinking this is absolutely awesome?

Sorry for the thread, but I really felt like sharing this one. I found it extremely pleasant to listen to and watch, as well. What do you think?

I think with practice, Lang Lang could do better.

I love Chico. I liked his playing since the first time a watched a Marx's movie, when I was 8 or something. He's so funny... and also a great artist

That was priceless!!! Thank you for posting!  I knew Harpo was a musician, but I didn't know Chico played the piano!  There was such finesse in that performance.  So understated, even with all the theatrics. I think with practise, Lang Lang might do as well...

Absolute genius!  I thought the quality of the film was superb!  I LOVE that man.  Do you notice the complete relaxation in the hand.  The subtle use of the wrist.  A real natural!

Thanks!  What a rising way to begin the day!  I bet Chico could have whizzed through op. 10 no. 2 with no effort whatsoever.

Best video EVER

But the best part was yet to come, I bet!  He starts to play the piano strings like a harp! 

[starlady]

Chico was largely self-taught and never learned to use the left hand properly; note how his right hand does all the flashy stuff and the left plods along. 

Harpo was also self-taught and played with a non-standard tuning and looser strings than normal harpists (or so I read, I don't know anything about harps).

And I LOVE them both.

And another awesome one!
