    Another skilled pianist?

    Have you ever heard of Tal Zilber? I discovered him today and his playing made quite an impression on me. The way he arranged I will survive is stunning.

    + YouTube Video

    Make sure you also watch video where he plays The Simpsons theme.

    Yes, brilliant! Showy but not flamboyant. An example of unaffected virtuosity. What nationality is he and has he appeared on any marketable CDs ?

    Hi Mat, thank you for that, he is a very good pianist. I listened to his Beethoven and Chopin too

    He comes from Israel, here is a little about him.

    That's interesting information, Marval. No mention of recordings, though. He seems to be so busy teaching and pursuing further academic studies, however, that he probably has no time to record.
