To win this piano competition, you need elbows … and feet
mainThis is a performance of the Aaron Jay Kernis ‘Superstar Etude #1’ at the World Piano Competition in Cinicinnati. The player is semi-finalist Reed Tetzloff, from Minneapolis.
Do not try this at home.
The other semi-finalists are: eng Bian, Moye Chen, Sung-Soo Cho, Sangyoung Kim, Anastasiya Naplekova.
Funny piece. Like it…
Here is less forced performance:

I love Aaron Jay Kernis’s music. I wish he were better known over here in Europe.
