So, a couple of weeks ago Piano*Son got to play the first movement of the Grieg with his youth orchestra. Here is the cadenza and finale. Grieg Piano Concerto, Cadenza and finale He came really close to getting the chance to play this with the Richmond Symphony. That would have been a blast. He might try again next January. |

Cool, that's actually pretty decent! Playing a piano concerto with a life orchestra is a rare and valuable experience. Congratulations!

That's just awesome. Hard to believe this is the Piano*Son I first heard a handful of years back. You must be very proud PD. What growth. I can't help but notice his hands... (duh...) looks like he can get quite a span... is Rachmaninoff in his sights? |

Very cool! Who here remembers when Pianojerome had the same honor in his last year of high school? It was also just the first movement. I think I still have the mp3 he posted way back. |

Don't think so, although he could have played the piece (while doing 20 AP courses, and getting accepted into Yale, Harvard, Stanford, The Sore Bone, etc.). Edited by Phlebas, May 13 2010, 04:51 PM.
