Aimi Kobayashi played Schubert Impromptu op.90 no.2 at PTNA Cometition 2003 when she was 7 years old and got the 1st prize under the cathegory of age 14. EMI Classic and Aimi's fansite(c.)
Speechless... She wasn't even tall enough to sit on normal piano bench and play and use the pedal (notice tht it was lifted) amd she can play such a hard piece whicg requires tons of skills. Its too amazing
A miracle made manifest! Aimi'splaying, even at that tender age, was so comletely MUSICAL -- brilliant-but-also expressive and full of CHARACTER displaying an incredibly mature UNDERSTANDINg of the spirit, mood, and drama in Schubert's masterpiece..
I've learned piano for years and learned my share of theory and for all I hear, it sounds better than some professional players to me. I don't know why anyone would say this sounds like "Robot"
She was amazing. And she played this at 7years old!! Why does people think that she plays like a robot? Those people are probably jealous of her!! Ps. For the people who can't play this piece and thinks she plays like a robot: If you play this, you'll think that your hands will fall off from your body. So don't say that she is a robot.
Amie is incredible. From what I have seen she really enjoys playing piano and seems to be a well balanced young lady despite her incredible talent. Good luck to her. May she continue giving enjoyment to all who listen!
This is really great, I love it. But everybody says how the girl is a genius. She may be, but there is much more then intelligence behind this. She worked hard for years.
Восхитительно, грандиозно, неподражаемо, непревзойдённо... не хватает эпитетов, чтобы выразить своё изумление ее гениальным способностям!!! Господи, какой талант! Понимаешь в такие минуты, как ты ничтожен...
@@cooper7944 Aimi is gifted. She has always looked at ease, and there is no difference between her command here and in her 20s, just more advanced repertoire. Everyone practices, not everyone develops like this.
And all the people who criticize those people who says that she plays like a robot, It means that humans cannot basically achieve this mastery, and only beyond humans can achieve this girl's talent. IN OTHER WORDS, she is to good to be true.
Wow,that is amazing how that little girl plays the piano with such skill and super dexterity for someone so very young, WELL DONE, I like it, nice one 👍
Each time I see a video of Aimi, my mind get blown away. There are two important qualities for a pianst : Sensibility, and technical skill. She has both of them, more than anyone I know, since she began to play the piano.
Aucune comparaison est possible quand j'ai commencé le piano j'avais 8 ans et j'ai été capable de jouer correctement cette oeuvre à l'âge de 20 ans et j'en ai beaucoup plus ;-) alors ......Admiration complète et quel talent! Que de travail! Les pianistes apprécieront.....
So cute! I am always amazed. We think of these little ones as somewhat magical that they can perform like a well trained adult. But the reality though it seems impossible is that these little ones are in reality matured spirits in still growing little bodies. 😊
nice job girl! i am almost 40 and i have practiced this piece on-and-off for a long time, and there is no way i can play it anywhere near the way you can. you are an inspiration for us!!
我現在也在學這首曲子，我怎麼彈都彈的沒有她好...她真的很厲害，我覺得已經是神的境界了 I'm also learning this song now, I can't play as well as her... She is really good, I think it is in the realm of God(Provided by Google Translate)
If you are able to appreciate and see the true beauty of the music you will never see how the thing expresses it. It is not in person's movements, not in the face expressions, instead it is out of there, it is everywhere. A true master will always feel music by heart, not looking to how the musician makes his face look like. Well, what would you said then if we are back to Glenn Gould? It doesn't matter at all. . .
I feel fine, not ashamed or jealous at all just because I never started learning piano, so I can't go to sleep well and keep listening to such a young prodigy. Bravo young girl. fabulous...
Produce asombro escuchar a la mayoría de estos niños de tan corta edad, pero Aimi es un caso aparte... produce estupor, uno tiene que restregarse los ojos para comprobar que no está soñando. Ese dominio técnico, esa madurez expresiva... ¡Dios mío!
Well said... Too many stereotypes have nothing more than critisize... I personally congratulate her parents/tutors for bringing out such talent in this world, giving pleasure (and envy) to the rest us who had no opportunity nor talent but to enjoy it. She will get better and better in the years to come....
John... Your perspective is noted and respected... I am a 69 year old chorister... never had much luck with the piano. That said, I found nothing wrong with this performance and I also think that it is all Aimi and not her teachers. This is the performance that sticks in my head even though I think I have a Brendel version, and have listened to a few others on TH-cam. She has a drive that is very rare even for a master and every time she finishes I want stand up and cheer.
(cont'd) Aimi immediately took to the piano, and started with lessons at age 2 1/2. At 3 she gave her first public performance. See it on TH-cam. She played by ear--after listening to tapes or watching her teacher. She has always memorized pieces--of any length--after just a few days of practicing. She enjoys performing, but has never liked to practice. Until this year at age 17, she has come in first in every competition she has ever entered--including those outside Japan. She records with EMI
Aimi you are a genious!! Then and today. It might be the best interpretation i have heard of this piece. Musically wonderfull and technical perfect. Its a very solistic and difficult piece played like that and listening to what a genious pianist she is today, the musicality must have started early. I see further below in some statements: The old ones understanding the music and a child can not. Nonsense!! Genious' are not to be understood. Aimi is one. Mozart was one. Chopin waas one. Schubert himself maybe the biggest. He always after 6 months got better than his students also as a child - and composed the Forellenquibntett after sharing 2 bottles of redwine with a friend. Finished written during a night. In his head. Perfect next morning. Aimi you are a genious. Some here too stupid to understand!!
This is so amazing. She is better than 99.9% percent of adults who have attempted piano lessons in their lives, how does she find the will and focus to acquire this amazing talent, let alone finger strength, at her age?!
This has got to be my favorite Kobayashi performance on TH-cam. Unlimited talent and Zero inhibition - the music just explodes from those tiny fingers.
Schubert piano pieces are so deceptive in that they sound “easy” to play because the harmony and form are relatively straightforward, (especially for those who study theory). Until you get a copy of the piece and then try to sight read it... I am a fan of Ms Aimi Kobayashi, watching her play virtuosically at such a young age helps me imagine what it would have looked like when Mozart or even Mendelssohn must have played as child prodigies. Oh and I absolutely love her playing Chopin Scherzo 1 and Etude 5 Op 25 at the Chopin competition!
This was 14 years ago when Ami was 7. Unfortunately, her spontaneous carefree totally dedicated effortless musical genius has ended, and playing now appears to be an excruciating emotional battlefield for Ami. Sad, but something has happened in her life.
動画の音質悪いのに音が綺麗すぎる、、、、
あり得ないほど上手いですね。強弱のつけ方、音色、滑らかさ、音楽性全て素晴らしく何度も聞きたくなるような魅力的な演奏ですね。
Many of todays young prodigies are performing this piece. Aimi still rules and is by far the finest. Such a great musician.
この頃は、まだ、萩市の山根先生のところでしたよね。
このドレス覚えてます。
娘と同級生で宇部から通ってる天才少女って、先生の教室でも有名でした。
この後、数年後にお父様と同じ会社でしたが、三歳の頃から一日中ピアノを弾いていると聞きました。ご飯を食べるよりピアノを弾きたがったと。
萩の先生は1日三時間～五時間は練習してねって言う先生でしたが、うちの子は無理でしたが、愛ちゃんは余裕だったんですよね。
山口県で山根先生の教室からはピティナーやコンクールの上位者が多く、有名な先生でしたが、先生いわく愛ちゃんは天才過ぎて私が導けなくなったと言われてました。
東京の先生に通われだした頃は、お父様が本当に苦労をされてました。
お父様の苦労も実られたと思います。
ちなみに、お父様はイケメンパパさんでしたよ！！
HOLY CRAP! SHE GOT 1st IN THE -14-YEAR OLD CATEGORY!
RESPECT!!!
Its 7
It is 14 year old and under
@@Lily-qg7dd She meant," HOLY CRAP, SHES EVEN BETTER THAN PEOPLE TWICE HER AGE"

何才だろう？？すごすぎ！！
適度に感情がこもってて、、個人的にすごく好きな演奏です！！

This is absolutely amazing, and she's obviously a very gifted player! Also-She must have a good teacher!
楽童。ピアノの天才。教えていたピアノの先生も、
この幼い少女の才能に、さぞや驚いたに違いない。
I've learned piano for years and learned my share of theory and for all I hear, it sounds better than some professional players to me. I don't know why anyone would say this sounds like "Robot"
It is just because they are jealous... never mind about them...
ㅋㅋㅋㅋ me too
It sounds better than MOST professional players to me.
And I listen to classical music on the internet all the time.
아임 코리아 ㅋㅋ

さすが小林愛美さん！小2の時からすでに！さすがすぎる！
This is exceptional! Both technique and interpretation. Close ur eyes and you would believe it was one of the leading pianists
This is really great, I love it. But everybody says how the girl is a genius. She may be,
but there is much more then intelligence behind this. She worked hard for years.
Beautiful performance, what a talent!
この曲難しいのに
よくここまで上手
になるなんて凄い
小1くらいですか？流石あいみさんですね。
この年齢でこんな風に叙情性を体現出来るなんて驚愕です。やはりピィティナの本選決勝はすごいなと思いました。私は小5でピィティナ予選で正にこの曲弾きましたけど、予選で敗退しました汗
リサイタルがあったら行きたいです。
Oh My God! What an amazing performance in such a young age!

Truly Extraordinary! Beautiful control so early in Life! She is and always will be a blessing to classical Music. Thankyou Aimi Kobayashi💎...💎 😚💖👌
Hey wonderful performance! You are so amazing! You inspire me all the time. I love all your performances :-)
Outstanding talent, tremendously gifted girl with such mindblowing -technique and imagination-inspiring playing
I wouldn't say gifted. I'd be applauding all her PRACTICE. Saying gifted isn't fully appreciating the skill.

この年でこれだけの表現力、すばらしい👏 凡人には絶対に越えられない才能の壁がある。 彼女はまさに神童である
小6でこれを弾きましたが、まさか7歳で弾くとは…
さすが、神童ですね
カッコいい！！
7歳の演奏には聴こえません。
絶え間ない努力の結果なんだろうなあ。
本当に凄すぎるよ
天才少女だね
六年でこの曲でコンクールに落ちた俺は一体、、、
뭔 말 인지 모르겠다 ㅠㅠ
Every pianist is different. I wanted to say I love ur style u are truly an inspiration

まだ何歳でしょうか？7歳かそこらにしか見えないですよね、まさしく神童ですよね♬信じられない程 素晴らしい演奏
Amazing! ❤ This is the best performance!
魂が音楽と一緒に歌っているのでしょうか。普段クラシックに馴染みがない生活をしているので耳に残り難いのですが、この演奏は心に響いて残りますね。
Holy moly I can't believe such a little girl can play so well...
I'm fifteen and doing this for my piano recital in June. I'm sti proud I'm doing it as young as I am

ヤベマジ天才だと思うような気がする😏
She is awesome 😎!!!!!!!!! Amazing 😉👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Amazing! So young, so talented.
Impressionante: intensa e perfettamente aderente al testo di Schubert.
Straordinaria la performance di Kobayashi.
Incredible! She is amazing. Only 7 years old? This piece is very hard to play well, bravo!

7 years old and set for life. Money will never be an issue for her.
So cute! I am always amazed. We think of these little ones as somewhat magical that they can perform like a well trained adult. But the reality though it seems impossible is that these little ones are in reality matured spirits in still growing little bodies. 😊
シューベルトらしい音楽です。1つの美しい音楽としてまとまっていました。とても良いです‼︎
This is beautiful. It shows the power humanity holds, as individuals, the things we can do with the the power of will.
She is supremely gifted. What a blessing to hear her and feel the music as she brings it forth. mm
Whaou this is speechless 😱 I am going to play it too 🎶
Realky good performance perfect speed and perfect feelings

my, she is a child --sitting on a box -- making wonderful fun, music, making Schubert sing again!
Daebak!! The rhythem and tempo is so clear with all the dynamic and harmony language ^^ love it
What a cutie, she certainly is a genius. She memorizes all the Impromptu and puts all her little self into the music. Beautiful!
Bravissima; musica meravigliosa. Young talent. Congratulations
Bravissima non solo in funzione della sua tenerissima età ...
da non credere ...
It is very wonderful
Bravo Aimi. eres maravillosa!....
Can't not believe at such a young age, she can put so much soul performance into the music. Truly Talented.
