      Yes, Debussy's "Clair de Lune" has that impact on a lot of people - it was one of the first classical pieces I learned as a child. There's a dramatic part that I expected he'd play, but he began to morph the song just before it, and I was drawn in further, and rewarded with the powerful (programmed) vocal moaning and the percussive accents he added. He was mesmerizing to hear and watch. What a brilliant performance! 🎹 🎵

    He makes me want to learn playing piano. He is such an awesome talent. I have watched him play as many times as I could that shows how good and taleted he is. You simply can not have enough of him.
