| Mozart was probably that old when he wrote the piece! |

| It's always the way with these Far Eastern children under the parental eye, achieving as if a war has to be won! But this girl is good, not just at playing the concerto but the other important linguistics of public performance... the dreamy eye-closing, the elbows flapping. My one-and-only musical textbook says, "Don't think it's easy to become a great piano concertist. Apart from several hours' practice a day, regularly soaking the hands in hot olive oil and insuring them for several hundred thousand pounds, he has to practise the adjustment of piano stools, flinging tails over the back of the stool neatly and accurately, hand-wringing, brow-mopping, looking interested an unconcerned during the moments when he is not actually playing, shaking hands with conductors and leaders, taking encores and bowing..." (Peter Gammond). These kids just practice to the exclusion of all else. Wasn't Midori aged 10 when she first played Paganini's Caprices in public? Edit: I malign her - 8 when she made the tape that shot her to fame. Reith. |

| Wow! She plays really well, and indeed does look like a professional playing, and not like a little child. I just hope that she'll use her potential to it's fullest extent and not turn into a self-concentrated snob like many blessed kids do. Reith: That's always the way with Russian, Iranian, English... Remember: Generalizations are never correct!  |

| Aimi Kobayashi is now 11 years old, but when this clip was recorded, she was only 8 years old (2004). There is something moving about watching her: It is clear that she understands Mozart’s music in a way that I almost never see anybody do. Maybe it takes one child prodigy to understand another?
