Young Musician of the Year

not sure if anyone is watching, but this is on BBC2. Superb as always, with astonishing performances. I have been following it, and hope that the very young cellist wins. She gave such an assured performance the other day so keeping my fingers crossed.

if anyone is watching - the cellist is Laura van der Heijden, aged 14.

em10 Just posted my thoughts. I agree absolutely stunning performance. How does on remember where to plank your fingers on such an instrument?. The mind boggles!.

they are all brilliant. The Korean girl the other evening playing the Marimba and percussion was astonishing, she would be my heads choice to win. But my heart says the 14 year old cellist.

the cellist got through, so will keep my fingers crossed for her tomorrow.
Perhaps others have caught up with it...

Now these contestants really do have TALENT. Sadly only a minority will be watching while the majority prefers TalentLESS performing dog acts.
