I need to take a few minutes to crow about the wonders of living in Westerville where I get to attend phenomenal music events! Today I attended a performance of the Westerville Symphony Orchestra with guest Gavin George performing.
Allow me to introduce you to Gavin:
Hear him at the piano by clicking here.
This video was done when he was 11. He is now 12. This was one of 3 pieces he played tonight for encores as the audience begged him to continue!
Here he is at age 7 with a fun variation.
Gavin is from Newark, Ohio and has now played all over the world! At tonight's event, Gavin played Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 1 in F sharp minor, op. 1. I honestly don't know how it is physically possible for anyone to move their fingers as fast as Gavin did. WOW he was amazing!!!
If I could figure out how to upload the videos from my phone to this page, I would do that for you. Come back later and see if I figured it out!
In the meantime, search youtube and let Gavin amaze you!
Happy Viewing!

What a gifted musician!
