Wow. That's beautiful. That's what I call gifted.

The expressive quality of his left hand is impressive. Ditto the right.

Do you really think he's 4 years old, though?

Yes, I do. I think he maybe big for his age but I think he could be 4. When he approaches the bench and sits down he doesn't move like someone much older than that, IMO.

According to some of the comments, it's a video of Kit Armstrong, a certified prodigy (if such a thing actually is certifiable Wink ).

Anyhow, if you search for him in YouTube, you'll find a few more. I honestly can't tell if this video is him at four years old.

He's playing Liszt and Chopin. I'm astounded that his hands are large enough to play those pieces, much less play them well. The kid must have looong fingers.
