I just started taking piano lessons at 74, I thought I was going to play on my mother's piano which I inherited but at it's first tuning was told the bass bridge had collapsed and it was not fixable so my husband bought me a baby grand on which to learn, as his last gift to me shortly before he passed away. I have a wonderful encouraging young woman who is very patient with me. I am finding that at times my fingers do not cooperate with my wishes but I would hope to be able to continue to 100 as this amazing lady has done. Things do change in the brain ( I am finding out) and our population is scurged with demensia and Alzheimer's, so one of my many motivations was to ward off further inevitable deterioration. It's a fascinating topic, the brain and learning music. In addition, I am truly very much enjoying it, pretty much a consuming new hobby. And in case anyone is interested I really do see significant changes in my brain. So sorry to the person whose mother stopped teaching adults, it's rather a disservice, but I do understand it would take a special person to continue teaching someone who doesn't align with the "normal" progress.

Our old people are an encyclopedia of wisdom and knowledge, a pity that we do not pay much attention in our time to this category of geniuses.

She is wonderful. A lifetime of serious study gives her the foundation to play this piece so well today. She gives me hope, truly. Bravissima.

[@jodysoberon4477]

How dare anyone "dislike" this. So wonderful she can still play, and if you want to dis, best check how well you play now, and when you are 100.

[@charlielanguellholt3877]

How are you doing 😊👋☺️☺️👋

[@maxwellmauro1]

Hi🌹

[@madhujith]

If someone has any doubt on: What is humanly possible? What does music do to you? Show them this!! Inspirational 🙏🏼🙌

[@manasjana4589]

Fantastic . A most memorable event for anyone viewing it. Complete admiration for the organizer. Salute to the 100 year old musician

[@idjfieb6663]

BRAVO!!!

[@willycat7445]

She began to walk straighter and faster as she heard the applause and saw the people. Amazing what positive affirmation does to one's soul and body.

[@antoniagibson3071]

I still have hope, thank you❤😊

[@artschamberg4470]

The music she played was well done especially at 100 years but just as important are the feelings the music allows you to experience.

[@letinhsong8024]

It's amazing she can even play at all when she could barely walk, and couldn't even sit down by herself. Chopin til the end! I certainly want to hear him up to my final days...wish I could play him myself as good as her! I have to settle for listening to others...

[@PSA3377]

Phenomenal!! Bravo 👏 I had tears in my eyes before the 1st note .

[@user-cq5xo5xy4d]

Замечательно! В таком возрасте сыграть по памяти без нот! Дай Бог здоровья и желания сыграть для публики!!!

[@prestopiano88]

When I am 100, I will also be playing Chopin. Brava!

[@ronniewoodsbellmontsounds7045]

Juliet Preston What makes you think that you will live to 100.a bit presumptuous don't you think.?

[@JamesZ32100]

@@ronniewoodsbellmontsounds7045 It wouldn't hurt to try though

[@Ace1King1]

When I'm 100 I'll be playing the harp.

@TheGreatestDuck Well, the commenter was just being optimistic

I’m crying, thanks for the great performance!

[@bonitabland3417]

Helle!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day.. Stay Safe!!

[@sharifapearlsiadans1529]

Yes.This gives me hope.Before my late husband was convincing me to learn to play the piano.He does and so all our four kids.Now I am encouraged to learn.She is is inspiring.

[@agneswong685]

Blessed one..one century lady.. awesome... God bless you.. my dear lady..

[@truth8307]

It's her karma, not God.

[@ericmoore1015]

How are you doing today my name is Eric Moore

[@Tremolo_Guitar]

[@MJ-sj9ho]

She is incredible !!!!! That is what you call pure passion!!!!!

[@SuperKasper333]

Absolutely incredible! Played as Chopin should be. Brava!

[@cornelnicoara4629]

[@donaldirvine1898]

Incredible! 100 years old ! Still playing!

[@rogelioquintana7927]

I think the lady is in better shape that the ones “helping” her. Music rides a long lasted trip to the heart.

[@joelmacanaya7774]

Amazing and very inspiring for all seniors!!! She’s an instrument of God.

[@aphelelembarh9281]

who is still here in 2019 .... woow

[@sandraprince2200]

She plays with such feeling it makes me cry and chills both ! Beautiful

[@franceselainethurston1606]

At first it looked like she was having a problem and also praying. She is so terrific that words cannot describe her.

[@teresajohnson5265]

At 73, I feel inspired to learn to play musical instrument Frer seeing this lady play. 🤗

[@ApostolicInjunctions]

What an inspiration, I have just started learning to play the accordion again after a nigh on 50-year absence at a mere 74 years of age, and enjoying it tremendously......{;o;}

[@pianoplaying-kblee1262]

100 years old ! Wow

[@elinorjones9396]

I was fortunate to have piano lessons for 10 years aged 7-17. I succeeded in theory and practice to grade 5. At that time I was practising 2 hours a night. The theory, was definitely getting harder. I moved on to train to be a nurse. It was my drive to care, but music is my passion. Now at 61 I definitely will be inspired to return to my music.This lady is amazing. I thank my mother for sacrificing everything to pay for my lessons, my music and exams. But as a nurse, I ensured my parents had great care. I'm fortunate to have pursued the two things I love the most. 🎶 🎹 🎶 x

[@lautoka63]

Ah, Grade 5 theory. How glad I am to have that behind me, with no plans for Grade 6. I'm an engineer and found it hard as I overthought it (according to my teacher).

[@Eight6455]

I know she's 100 and all but almost half the video is her walking up to the piano.

[@yessanknow302]

lol

[@karensconyersgrubbs9119]

The only way I'd want to live to 100 is playing the piano as she is. Bravo!
