    Excellent, I enjoyed this young pianist's performance. I think there was a high level of passion, in the fact that he projected that he was having fun in a way that a typical teenager shows as a form of passion. This was a very good performance.

    And, I wanted to add, I have noticed some wrong notes as well, but: 'To play a wrong note is insignificant; to play without passion is inexcusable.' - Ludwig van Beethoven said that and I completely agree! ♥ We are humans, not robots, and you played that piece with passion, emotions and that's important thing!

    I’d already decided in my mind (without reading the full video description) that he was about 16 or 17 and I thought he was pretty good. But to know he was actually only 13...amazing. And to those of you attacking his performance for lack of “passion”, come on he is 13! Passion will come with time and life experience.

  • @kristinan91
    @kristinan91 2 роки тому +1

    cant be strict here since this is a very young pianist. I am used to listening to Prokofiev performed by someone like Kissin. But honestly, it is not a very mature performance, it is like he does not feel the story behind the music in addition to the technical mistakes. The slow part was rudely played and the left hand in that part sounded much louder than it is supposed to be...in general, the performance was a bit neurotic and with some tension, perhaps, he was really nervous and stressed. Well, he will grow for sure, he has good potential.

      @daxine-iv7em well I could as well but what for?! Restaurant critics or food writers are not chefs but still publish their reviews. Game tasters are not programmers but still share their opinions. There are so many great classic voice teachers who suck at the stage performance. So if you don't like something, just keep it to yourself or express your great admiration to this young artist separately or your disagreement to my opinion in a more intelligent way.
