Piano Hero 2016
on: May 10, 2016, 04:31:38 PM
Haven't seen a post on this.   So here goes.   11 year old wins the CBC's "Piano Hero's Contest", playing Chopin's Ballade #1.

Here's the performance.   Scroll down the page a little.

Not bad at all for an 11-year-old.  That octave-playing, in particular, although not perfect, is pretty impressive for what must be still small hands.   The interpretation is mature.
