Stunning technique. What sensitivity, what power! Nice jacket too!

His playing is so precise and clean. It’s like textbook perfect. But I feel like there’s something missing. I don’t know. Not exciting. Predictable. But again, he was faultless. Bravo!!!

[aizawamegamill]

What a wonderful and brilliant young man! I love all his performances on this channel. His interpretation is above and beyond!

[moniquebousseau]

Un moment d'éternité. Une interprétation majeure. Merci

[anonymous-qsnq]

He plays so effortlessly, like its easy. This is the only pianist i see play like this, and he play beautifully also not mention he still a teenager and very handsome.

My father used to play this piece back when cassettes were used. Brings back memories!

[larysayevdokymova-rizk]

Beauty breathes in his interpretation ⚜️⚜️⚜️👏👏👏

[Richard.Holmquist]

Well played, with clarity and interesting dynamics. Thank you.

[henryv.macadamia]

Just wait for his polish and mastery which all, even geniuses need to attain in a matter of time of their own emploi du temps, the brilliance of unparalleled magnitude will eventually emerge. I am impressed now and will continue to follow him in his quest.

[stradivarioushardhiantz]

Honors for the medical frontiers during this pandemic 🎹🎼😇🌟

[antoniobreaux]

This guy is two days younger than me and he’s a monster at this. I don’t even play.

[jackamt]

God's gift to the soul of a suffering humanity!

[alansyahniar]

ur playing sounds similiar like valentina lisitsa, great job!!

[thomasschubert]

Technisch virtuos, sicherlich. Allerdings eine der schlechtesten Interpretationen, die mir je zu Ohren gekommen ist. Ich habe kein Beduerfnis, mehr von diesem Pianisten zu hoeren, geschweige denn, seine Einspielungen kaeuflich zu erwerben.
