He started in early 2005 at 9 years old and presently he just turned 12.

It's so easy, especially you know you're being recorded, to play "flat", everything at the same volume but he varied the dynamics very well. Also, the fast section starting at 3:09 was very well played! Good job for three years at the keyboard! Greg

I have received several varied reactions which would probably be attributed to the preferences of the listener. His teacher is generally satisfied with his playing .. but encourages him to smoothen out some transistions. Many are okay with the dynamics and expression; some suggest to lighten the "pp" parts. Some find the piece a little too loud. We really appreciate inputs to feel how the piano playing group would feel about his interpretation vs. how the "general public" feels about it as reflected in YouTube. Enzo is such an abnormally serious kid when it comes to his playing!
