The piano is one of the most difficult musical instruments to play, let alone master, and few people have the talent and dedication to become a virtuoso or world-class performer. But Mike Wang is no ordinary pianist. He immigrated to South Africa with his family when he was just eight years old. Now, at just 16, he recently won the National Youth Music Competition, a prestigious event focusing on young classical musicians. Some of the competition's judges believe Mike could be South Africaโ€™s next great piano prodigy. Your favourite episodes are now available on Carte Blanche: The Podcast: https://bit.ly/PodcastCB
