Young Virtuoso

This little tyke walked around the mall looking all young and innocent, but when he stepped up to the grand piano in the middle of the mall walkway, his shy demeanor was transformed into this distinguished young man who held his head high. His tiny fingers caressed the ivory keys with the knowing exactness of a performer who appeared to do this for years. There were moments of relaxed movement, then there were furious shaking and what seemed like random pounding of the keyboard. But still beautiful music fluttered from the strings of the instrument.

He proceeded to amaze the crowd (who held their cameraphones to the face of the child) with three more songs. When the performance was finished, he stepped away from the piano, bowed a seasoned performer's bow, and went towards his parents, who were glowing with pride, wearing the sweetest smiles. They then tousled his hair and the boy transformed back into the shy, giggling tyke, young and innocent.
Lovely shot! I love the angle!
