Piano! Reviving the interest.

Chinese-born pianist, Yuja Wang, must be super smart in order to play like this.



What must one do in order to be to play like that? Learn from Yuja Wang. She began studying piano at age six, and went on to study at the Central Conservatory of Music in Beijing.

What is so grand about being an accomplished pianist? She has a recording contract and travels most of the time playing concerts around the world.
