Me too, I cried with joy at hearing such sweetness. One must really have a hard heart not to be moved by such a sweet little prodigy. Not only are keys big for such little hands, but she was playing blind without any sheet music. I was enjoying her piano playing, but when she added that beuatiful little sweet voice I was a goner and the tears poured down. AWWW!!
