TED - Piano improv from Jennifer Lin
This one is a must see, this purely an artistic presentation. If you like classical piano then you should watch this. She’s 14 years old at the time of this writing, which would make her 18 now. She’s amazing when she improvises and then also on the song she plays afterward. She has a lot of talent and obviously 4 years later she’s gone out to do some great things.
She speaks about how she composes her music. She goes on about her inspirations, and she then explains the technical parts of writing the song. The video has a good mix of “theory” and “performance”. Many people have said that when you’re an artist you should work with other arts besides your favorite, she explains how this is true to her as well; her other art? painting.
The volunteer that comes up, is Goldie Hawn.

She was an amazing piano player! I hope to get to hear more of her creativity on TED. Thank you for sharing.
She is amazing, I don’t think she’s scheduled to come back or anything but who knows what she’s up to now, the video was done about 4 years ago.
