An A+ Piano Recital

Goethe Institute Auditorium. 17 February 2011. Bangkok, Thailand. Bangkok is blessed with many excellent piano students, and Warut Supo is among the very best I’ve heard. He performed a difficult program for his Senior Piano Recital for his music degree from Silpakorn University. With poise, he beautifully played works by Bach, Beethoven, Rachmaninov, Chopin and Prokofiev. If he were nervous, it was not on display as he never strayed from highly musical interpretations and execution. I don’t know if Warut’s teachers give him a grade for Thursday’s program, but if were up to me and the enthusiastic audience, Warut gets an A+.
