Day three in Switzerland/second concert

The concert this morning at the Gstaad Chapel was by a 17 year old pianist Giulietta Koch. A very gorgeous, talented young women. You can see her bio at www.menuhinfestivalgstaad.ch Her program had not yet been announced at time the website was loaded. Today she played A Chopin Ballade #1 op.23, a piece by heitor Villa-Lobos entitled Valsa da Dro, and the Chopin Sonata #3 op.58 in 4 movements. Standing ovations well deserved. Give her another 20 years and if she is still on the concert tours, her maturity will add even more depth to her playing.
