I'm so used to hearing a full orchestra back this piece, this one caught me by surprise.... Backed only by strings, it places the audience attention squarely on the pianist as it should be. It's a shame that the performance is hampered by being too closely microphoned. I had not heard of this young man prior to stumbling upon this video, but I suspect we will be hearing alot more to come...
