8-Year-Old Pianist With No Formal Training Has Talent That Would Stun Chopin Himself

This kid's a natural.

In this video, an 8-year-old boy named Jay plays a moving rendition of Chopin’s Fantaisie Impromptu on a public piano at the St. Pancras Station in London.

Jay is a master of the keys, but you might be surprised to find out that he has never taken a class and taught himself to play by watching video tutorials online, according to his mother.

Now if only we could play that well with lessons!
