Returning to a 'loved one' that caused great pain in her childhood | The Piano

Perfectionism on the piano was a source of great heartache for Alys. After a 30-year hiatus, she returns to the piano and plays Ravel's Jeux D'eau with great joy. #ThePianoABC #GrowingUp #Childhood #Pressure The Piano - Stream Sundays 7:30pm on ABC iview and ABC TV: https://ab.co/ThePiano ___________________________________________ The idea is simple: everyday pianists sit down at public pianos across the country, share their stories and play, revealing the power of music to transform lives. What these pianists don’t know is that they are being observed by two renowned expert musicians: Andrea Lam, one of Australia’s greatest classical concert pianists, and joining her this season is Australian music royalty and multi-instrumentalist Guy Sebastian. Behind the scenes, our mentors quietly take in every performance before selecting one pianist from each location to join them for a special finale concert on one of Australia’s most iconic stages, Sydney’s City Recital Hall. Hosted by Amanda Keller, The Piano sets out to discover extraordinary community pianists, people who aren’t seeking stardom, but play purely out of passion. Some of the most remarkable street-piano moments have already been captured on film and gone viral, watched by millions online. But who are these everyday musicians behind the world’s favourite instrument?
