At just four years of age, Brigitte Xie can not only read music, but also play a piece of classical (古典的) music from Beethoven. Brigitte is the youngest winner (获胜者) of the Elite International Music Competition.
Brigitte's feet hang above the floor when the small girl sits on the piano seat. Her hands dance across the piano keys.
Brigitte shyly looks down when her mother asks her, "Do you like playing the piano? Is it fun to play the piano?" "Yeah, fun," Brigitte answers.
Brigitte started to have online piano classes about a year ago. Her father bought the lessons to give her something to do at home. "At the beginning, I never thought that she could do so well in it," her father says.
Brigitte's mother thanks her piano teacher, Felicia, a lot. "From the lessons, I notice that she loves to learn," her teacher says.
Brigitte's mother says her daughter may have more talent (天赋) and interest in music than other children. But the most important thing is that they found Felicia. "Yeah, we are really lucky to meet her and have her as Brigitte's first piano teacher," she says.
