Part of the “everything bubble” first noted in financial markets and now evidently extending to other areas?
I was at a European hotel recently where, by coincidence, a similar event at a much lower level was taking place, and there appeared to be a sub-competition amongst the numerous flown-in Asian participants (of minor age, accompanied by parent(s)) as to who could practise the longest hours at an open window. The record was 8 hours at my estimate. Very noisy and rather ineffective, such as playing a 15-bar passage 50 times with the same mistakes perpetuated.
Chances are good that he’ll be 8 by the time the comp rolls round; nothing to see here.
Who is this 7 year old,and where does this kid come from?
