He is British-Korean. use the Internet, listen to him yourself. Listen to the Japanese language then the Korean language and THEN listen to him.. Or better yet, use official sources
"Richard Hyung-ki Joo is a British-Korean pianist and composer, and member of the musical comedy duo Igudesman & Joo"
The music is by rachmaninov. Is the theme from the second movement of the second piano concerto. celine dion uses the same chord progressions and melody from rachmaninov's work.
joo's mother is an opera singer(i think i heard that somewhere so no flaming if im wrong) but he has a lovely voice dont you think, and also this is HILARIOUS
I'm from the US....and sorry to disappoint but i'm not that fluent in Hungarian LOL thats cool that you know how to say "It's fantastic" in many languages! I can say hello in like 10 or somethin...
ok it's a little bit hard (szia) because it's a really difficult language..but i think hungarian people can speak lots of language from tihs cause .. older people can russian and german and now we can learn in the school english german french spanish italian and what you want..:D
Thats cool....my school only offers French and Spanish...I'm taking Spanish :P...I don't know much about Hungary except thats its in Europe and yeah....about that much...how do you pronounce hello (szia)??? I could add it to my "collection"
what was the name of this song he is playing on the piano again? i know who the composer is i just for got the name of this song could some one tell me the name of this song
Such a wast of tallent,If I were that pianist I would give concerts and make the people hear what it is to be a special someone,becouse only few people can be a true pianist....Even so,
All i understood was When I was young... :D
