2009 Van Cliburn Competition Award Ceremony

[theshacho]

hey falks, did you find+notice that Mr. Tsang's expression on his face, when TSUJI also got the same first award? First 30seconds, he show so upset / uncomfortable. If Mr. Tsang got this over in the future, he would grow much faster, and people/audience appreciate Tsang's value. That is, he should learn to appreciate even lesser tech pianists including kids.

This moment he show his mental condition spoil this ceremony.

What a fucking slap in the face to the winners to have the "audience vote". WTF is that about? I can't believe they would even have that. There are bunch of sick people running that thing. And why wasn't the audience vote for Nobu? That's the kind of stuff audiences love. I'm sure he was heartbroken a bit. It was cause for an anti-climactic moment for all involved, expect that girl of course.

Hey, I have an idea. Van Cliburn should play a recital.  Oh, I forgot, he does not play anymore.

何度見ても涙が出ます。辻井さんは目が見えない分だけ、その量と­同じくらいの莫大な壮大な聴力を持っているのでしょう。音を見る­ことができるのでしょう。そしてそれは神から与えられた賜物です­ね。音を見る事ができる。ほかの方には見られない音の世界をこれ­からも謙虚な指先で奏でていって下さい。

Nobuyuki should had won the grand price...it shouldnt be a tie...he is way more talented and the fact that he has a disability...he is quite an inspiration and a gift from God.
