David Bérubé at 12 years old

At 12 y/o. Been one year that I began to play piano. I visit the stage, and I play 2 piece of Chopin ''Revolutionary Etude N Fantasie Impromptu'', learned by ear. It was my first contact with a large audience.

Yep I reckon he did learn it by ear there were heaps of different notes and different timings as opposed to what's actually written on the music. But pretty clever 12 year old all the same!

This is absolutely incredible, I question if Chopin himself even had as much talent as David...

I have been trying to Fantasie impromptu since i was 10..at the age of 13 i did and i was 3rd grade of music school.I believed i was a genius.But you are brilliant.I cant believe u did it in 1 year so i kinda hate you cause of that.But still this is amazing

@jennifermorrison I don't think you should be calling it a disease! A disease can be caught, and I doubt anyone is going to be catching this!

i was able to play this piece completely when i was 18. i can tell you now that what David is playing here is different from the revolutionary or fantasie impromptu in the sheet music. he's improvising some of the runs, first in his head, then on the keys. this is totally mind-blowing! i had a classmate in music school who hummed and played classical music without even looking at the sheet and David is doing exactly the same thing but i don't hear him humming!
