Piano Concert Review

I went to Simon Solar’s live performance at Presbyterian Church, Williamsburg.

Simon Solar is a senior on the Faculty of William and Mary majoring in Neuroscience and music. He has performed piano for nearly seventeen years and was a finalist within the Younger Artists Worldwide Piano Competitors. I used to be so Impressed by his efficiency on that day, as a result of I’ve began to study piano at an early age additionally, however I may by no means be pretty much as good as he Is. Simon Is a skillful, dynamic, and energetic participant.With a good-looking look, Simon bowed to viewers for a second and darted to play. He has performed 5 massive items of music completely. The primary piece, China Gates by Adams John, was a dynamic one.

It’s all about altering modes as It handed via every “gates”. In Simony’s efficiency, I may really feel the altering In It. Suppose It’s Essential to draw viewers with dynamic altering.

Then, he performed Plano Sonata Pop. 57 In F minor by Beethoven Ludwig v. It’s an extended piece with three actions. Simon was not taking part in the Plano however truly managed the piano.

HIS figures moved quick and versatile. Typically, the appropriate arm was crossed the left arm simply. Additionally, Simon was a superb conductor. He has performed a small symphony orchestra and a choir group within the live performance. It’s vital to use his piano expertise on different music associated areas. I’ve learn a e-book known as Outlier final 12 months, it’s stated that when individuals have practiced one talent for greater than ten thousand hours, they’d be excellent at that talent. So does Simon, I suppose he should each apply very onerous in the course of the previous seventeen years and is a gifted particular person.
