Lastly, the young Canadian pianist Jan Lisiecki.

"Yoav Levanon is no child prodigy. He is an 8-year-old artist of the highest rank," judged one critic. In fact, the now 15-year-old pianist can already look back on an impressive career: at the age of 5 he stood on a main stage for the first time, with 7 debuts as orchestra soloist, since then countless prizes, awards and brilliant reviews. On the second day of the piano summit in Schoss Elmau, he now represents the young generation of outstanding pianists.
