Pretty solid performance.

Excellent, and on a public piano...
Heard no mistakes, liked the way he obviously could have played it faster yet was in control. He seems to have long fingers.
Wish I could play it

That is very pretty and well done.

Below is my favorite "play a piano in public" clip. Talk about long fingers!!!

That wasn’t a typical public piano, it was a Yamaha C5 that looked to be fairly new (Likely a C5X, but I would need a wider view or a slightly higher view to determine.)

The “C5” is clearly visible on the cast iron plate in the video.
I don’t remember having looked inside a “C5X.”
Does the “C5X” also just say “C5” on its cast iron plate?

Yes, with a decal X near the serial number.

There are a few tells in the cabinet, but I can’t see enough to gauge.

Nevermind. Took another look, it’s a C5, likely around 2010 or so.

I like the last one, Georgia on my mind. Shame it was cut, he was just getting into it.

Here's Yuja playing La Camp. Wonderful touch.
Interesting interaction with the dots, maybe she hadn't performed it for a while.

How do the pages get turned on that iPad? (Or whatever it is). Is someone else doing it remotely?
