The little musician “picked up more in six months than most do in years worth of lessons”. Her daughter began playing piano at age three during the lockdown, and when her mom couldn’t keep up with lessons, she found an online tutor, Felicia Feng Zhang.
“As a parent I’m still open to everything, I don’t tell her that she must be a pianist. “I tell her ‘you’re going to perform in front of many people’ and she seemed excited because she likes performing.”Ī pianist herself, Nicole took the opportunity to introduce her daughter to it while under lockdown last year to keep her entertained.īut even though she’s showing a prodigious talent, her mom is not going to push it on her. Her mother, Nicole Sun from Ridgefield, Connecticut said, “She doesn’t know much to be honest I tell her ‘yeah baby you won the prize’ and she was like ‘ok, can we go to Disney store now?’ 'Forget the old thinking' that a 3-year-old can or cannot do something, Zhang said, adding that Bridgette is proof you never know when a child is ready to blossom. Pre-schooler Brigitte was forced to pull out – but will be given anther chance at a future concert in 2022. She won the Elite National Music Competition last December, and then in March this year won first place at the American Protégé International Competition, which wins her an invitation to perform at world-renowned music venue Carnegie Hall in New York City this November where all performers are required to be vaccinated against COVID-19.

The idea of entering a child that age in a piano competition does not appeal to me and seems to be more for the benefit of the teachers or parents.ĭigital Pianos - Electronic Pianos - Synths &a. Throwing around Mozart's name makes sense to me when journalists called Magnus Carlsen, at a much older age, the Mozart of chess, but is a gimmick for a headline in this case. It's possible the little girl will "perform Mozart" but it will probably be some thirty second piece Mozart wrote before the age of ten. My guess is the competition organizers and/or teachers rent Carnegie Recital Hall and invite the performers' relatives. Although it's probably true that most three year olds can't play the piano at all, she played the simplest piece imaginable. I know, I'm a killjoy - but I've learned to take everything I read in the media with a grain of salt.I think the newspaper article was more than a bit misleading and not only about her winning first place. so it wasn't like she actually "won" this annual international competition for youth. Yes - this talented little girl was a first place winner - BUT she was the youngest out of 37 first place winners in Spring 2021. A 3 year old child won an International Competition for young artists and will perform works of Mozart at Carnegie Hall.
