Wow!

Thanks for that link Dengizich.
I watched a few of those 47 performances.

This young lady would make Chopin proud. Her hand motions were so fluid with precise fingerings of every note. The judges were impressed.

The skill set of this group of young virtuosos is on a different level.

In contrast watch these young musicians just having a fun time with their instruments.
Yamaha Japan presented this to celebrate the 65th Anniversary of the Electone.

Watch this spirited performance by this talented lady on the Yamaha Electone STAGEA ELS-02C.
She is not as rigorous as a classically trained pianist. However, you can see the pure joy in her expressions.
