I remember watching him on TV when I was a teenager. It takes extraordinary skill to be a lovable clown while at the same time demonstrating great musical talent.

My wife’s family is from Denmark. The pants are a nice touch to be able to show the pedal gag.

If you want to hear an excellent performance of this piece, there's nobody better than Valentina Lisitsa

She is magnificent! As she says - it only takes 11 - 13 hours of practice every day!
