IYO, Who was/is the best piano player you have heard?
 

Anthony Burger - Hands down!

Talent wise, there was nothing this guy couldn't play, in any style. Had severe burns on his hands as a toddler to grow up with the talent he had was truly remarkable.

So sad, he passed away too quick, here is a video for some of the younger crowd.

Not the best, probably, but it made me think of this piano prodigy who improv's a piano sonata from four notes picked from a hat.

Was she on 60 minutes?

Dee Ford

Yes.

Thought it might be. What an amazing talent.

Scott Bradlee.

Peyton Manning

After Anthony passed away, Gordon Mote came along, another talented artist.

Schroeder

Liberace for sure

Definitely not going to say he's the best, but this guy is my favorite:

Big deal. You see kids better than her at any guitar store in the country. :D
