Hi all,

I've made 2 youtube movies of Bairenboim at the age of 12...
Recorded in 1954. What do you think of his playing there?

I know of a famous composer who wrote his music at that age and played
the piano and that was Mozart. I played music at that age too only by
ear. It took time for me to learn how to read it and I still have a hard time
reading music. I rather pick up the piece by hearing it and then play it.
