The Bat (German: Die Fledermaus) is an operetta composed by Johann Strauss, Jr. The overtüre (introduction to the operetta) is one of the most famous part from this operetta. For those who like the cartoon "Tom and Jerry", this overtüre is played in their episode: "The Hollywood Bowl" (link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32O0ENL5O-8 If you would like to watch the original version played by an orchestra, here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4YBhKx1bkEM I love this overture so much that I managed to play it on piano. Once more: Sorry for my small errors and that I almost fell at the end....Haha, I think I was too excited...

  • Sir, you have incredible talent, and you are indeed gifted and deserve world wide recognition. Please can you tell us whether you have produced any CDs I would suspect they could turn into million sellers. Are you performing in any concerts as I would be most interested in attending. Thanks for sharing your fantastic talent with us. I wish you tremendous sucess in the future as you truly and honestly deserve it.

  • Hi Mike: Thanks so much for your good words. I haven't produced any CD's before as Im only an amateur pianist. Playing piano is only my hobby and I just love to play. Right now Im practising Rachmaninoff's piano concerto no 3, which is absolute my favourite. I've uploaded the cadenza part on my youtube page, please feel free to watch and comment if you want. You are also welcome to subscribe to me if you don't mind. I upload videos quite often. Thanks! Kind regards Johnny Fang
