I've probably heard this piece more than 200 times since I bought the live album in 1976. I get chills from how beautifully this young woman nailed it. I've little doubt that Keith would be so impressed by her accomplishments.

I didn't realize Rachel was blind when I first saw/heard this. Forgive me all for my ignorant observation. What a gifted young lady!

Impeccable playing, I'm blown away. No sheet music, she's doing this all FROM MEMORY??????? If so it goes beyond brilliant to genius.
