Such composure..

There is something that needs to be said about this poor child.

In China, they take thousands of two or three-year-old children and tie them to the piano for 12 hours a day, depriving them of everything appropriate for their age (play, affection, etc.).

Of course, at that age it is easy to learn the piano, but at what cost?

When they grow up, they select them and produce those monsters of skill who are invading (with our great and rightful admiration) our concert halls.

The others? They get lost in nothingness after having burned through their childhood.

This is not a little Mozart, but a poor slave of the system.

Have you noticed how sad he looks? When he finished the piece, there wasn't even a smile.

... and however it may be Terenzio, musically immature. As is only right.

True, in China they have a lifestyle that is questionable for our culture... better to be forced at the Piano anyway than working in the fields, or maybe not?

Do you know what this child is playing or who the author is?

bye,

From the sound, it seems like some piece taken from a collection for children from some Chinese book, so... Good luck figuring out what is being played.

I agree with Terenzio and Frank. A great musician—I don't remember who said this phrase—regarding these very young "talents" said: "let's wait 10 years and then we'll see".

The interpretation of a piece is something that has nothing to do with the mere imitation of what someone forced the student to do... It is something that grows with age; even great pianists have repeatedly revisited their thoughts on interpretation, sometimes even completely overturning them. Time matures things.

This child in the video is not old enough to understand many things. At that age, if you want to play the piano, you should do it for at most a couple of hours for fun, then you should play with toy cars with your little friends because that is the age when you should be with your little friends and not tied forcibly to the piano for 12 hours.

Found among the video comments!

Trinh Cong Son, a Vietnamese composer, is the author of this piece, but it seems to be an arrangement by God knows who.. go find it!!

it's certainly not such an elaborate piece for children, perhaps the original melody
