OMG, I can't believe this young man played a piece that I have forgotten all these years! I knew it as Maiden's Prayer but didn't know who wrote it. He played Turkish March even a little bit faster than what I'm used to hearing, but he played it exceptionally well. What a great pianist! Wow...

I don't know the original key for Octopus's Garden, but your rendition sounds about a half key lower than the orginal and the little slower tempo, so it makes the song sounds more relaxing. It was a great experience to listen to your unique version!
