If you've browsed around piano music on YouTube, you've probably come across the name of Valentina Lisitsa. Of Ukrainian birth, living in America, she's been playing piano since the age of three, but unlike most of the other, often younger, YouTube talents, she was never signed to a record label and only came to public recognition because of her networking success, building up a huge following of listeners through her YouTube, MySpace, Facebook and Twitter accounts. She has now signed to a record label, and it's wonderful to see her piano dream come true... from YouTube to the Royal Albert Hall!
You can see her full live concert here, but it's expected to be taken down very shortly (officially today), available then on CD and DVD. If any of you are interested, I hope you can catch some of it. I was there:) http://youtu.be/_pCQ1f520o4?t=18m9s
