Blind pianist Lucy stuns Royal Albert Hall with breathtaking Debussy debut
Blind pianist Lucy stuns Royal Albert Hall with breathtaking Debussy debut | Classic FM Live
By Kyle Macdonald
Watch a very special performance, as the exceptional pianist who won Channel 4’s ‘The Piano’ plays deeply emotional Debussy to an audience of 6,000 in London’s iconic theatre.
Monday night saw an incredible piano debut on one of the world’s biggest and most iconic stages.
Playing at Classic FM Live with Viking was a musician whose talent and deep relationship with music has stunned the classical world. Teenage pianist Lucy played Claude Debussy’s Arabesque No. 1 to the packed hall.
The remarkable young pianist won the Channel 4 series The Piano earlier this year, aged just 13. Her opening performance of a Chopin nocturne on a train station piano left judge Lang Lang stunned and lost for words.
From that moment, a new piano star was born. Lucy played in May’s Coronation Concert for King Charles at Windsor Castle, and has now continued her incredible journey with this Classic FM concert and a Royal Albert Hall debut.
Lucy, from West Yorkshire, is blind and neurodivergent. She is taught by Daniel Bath, a teacher who she first met when she was three years old. Daniel was beside his student on stage as she made her debut on Monday.
Watch her performance above. Her interpretation of the French composer’s music captivated the huge audience, holding them in an awed silence before a huge ovation at the end. What a moment it was.
The Arabesque is a piece Lucy has made her own. In March, she played it at London’s Royal Festival Hall, as part of the grand finale of the TV series where she took top honours.
The concert saw a night of incredible solo performances, with British-Iranian pianist Arsha Kaviani, guitarist Miloš Karadaglic, and brilliant young violinist – and Classic FM Rising Star – Luka Faulisi all sharing the stage with Lucy.
Along with the Debussy, Lucy also played Bach’s beautiful C-major Prelude from the Well-tempered Klavier.
You can hear her performances and all the night’s musical magic by catching up on Friday’s exclusive broadcast of Classic FM Live with Viking here on Global Player. YOu can also watch the full concert soon on Sky Arts.

Air Supply achieved widespread success in the 1970s and 1980s. The duo comprises singer-songwriter, guitarist Graham Russell, and lead vocalist Russell Hitchcock. They had several hits worldwide, including eight top-5 hits on the US Billboard Hot 100.
One of the hits is their timeless classic song “Lost in Love,” released in Australia in 1978 and again soared to the top of the charts. It reached Clive Davis, founder and president of Arista Records,who immediately offered Air Supply a record deal. The song was released in 1980 and became the fastest-selling in the world, topping the charts in many countries. “All Out of Love” was the second single released and again topped the worldwide charts.
Seven consecutive Top 5 singles at that time equaled The Beatles’ run. The albums Lost in Love, The One That You Love, Now and Forever, and The Greatest Hits sold more than 20 million copies. “Lost in Love” was named Song of the Year in 1980, and along with the other singles, it sold more than 10 million copies.
Air Supply released their fourth live album, “The Lost in Love Experience,” in 2019 and kicked off the same-titled world tour that captivated audiences worldwide. They were the first Western group to tour China, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia. Some of these countries have forbidden pop music to cross their borders, but this does not restrict the population explosion of Air Supply’s supporters as this iconic duo has sold out shows all over the world, including their upcoming show in Laguna this December, just like their first time at Laguna in 2018. Ovation Productions promote both shows. Blast TV is the official media partner.

After Beatles, AI to bring Edith Piaf voice back to life for biopic
AT A GLANCE
"Edith" is "in the final phase of development", sources close to Warner Music France said, but no release date has been scheduled.
PARIS (AFP) - A new biopic on the life of Edith Piaf will use artificial intelligence to allow the French star to narrate her own story, Warner Music and her estate said on Tuesday.
"Edith" is "in the final phase of development", sources close to Warner Music France said, but no release date has been scheduled.
The unveiling of the "innovative and revolutionary technological project using AI to re-create her voice and image", the statement said, comes 60 years after Piaf's death.
It also follows the success of the Beatles' latest release "Now And Then" which, with a little help from AI, last week soared to the band's first UK number one single in 54 years
Artificial intelligence helped isolate the late John Lennon's vocals from a tape he recorded in 1978, two years before he was murdered.
The two surviving Beatles, Paul McCartney, aged 81, and Ringo Starr, 83, finished "Now And Then" last year, including the late George Harrison's guitar parts recorded in 1995.
For the singer of French classics "La vie en Rose" and "Non, je ne regrette rien", AI will be fed hundreds of voice and image clips, some more than 80 years old, to re-create her unique style and "further enhance the authenticity and emotional impact of her story".
Original recordings will be used for her greatest hits, Warner said.
The 90-minute film will move between Paris and New York from 1920 to 1960 and be narrated by the singer's voice, including hitherto unknown "aspects of her life".
