Brad Kella and Lucy, both winners from 'The Piano', spontaneously perform a lively boogie-woogie duet together
Star Pianists Lucy and Brad Kella Deliver Spontaneous Duet at Leeds Piano Festival
The Leeds Piano Festival, a celebration of the city's unique heritage with all things 88 keys, played host to an unforgettable moment this year. Star pianists Lucy and Brad Kella took to the Pianodrome, a unique venue during the festival, for a spontaneous duet that had the crowd in awe.
Lucy, a pianist from West Yorkshire, first captured the nation's attention when she won the first season of the TV series The Piano. Her talent was later revealed to the world in a now-iconic performance that left judge Lang Lang stunned. Lucy is not only a prodigious pianist but also blind and neurodivergent, making her achievements all the more remarkable.
Brad Kella, winner of the second season of The Piano, joined Lucy for this special event. Initially, Lucy had planned to spend her downtime on her tablet, but the duet occurred after Brad started playing. The duet was a demonstration that for both Lucy and Brad, it's all about the music and the joy of sharing the piano together.
The duet was overflowing with the joy of all things 88-keyed. Lucy launched into a bluesy improvised solo, adding percussive, stabbing chords to Brad's boogie-woogie bass. The result was a mesmerising blend of styles that showcased the duo's incredible skill and chemistry.
The Leeds Piano Competition, at the heart of the Leeds Piano Festival, provided the perfect stage for this impromptu performance. The festival takes place every three years and also features public pianos, allowing music lovers to join in the celebration.
Following their Leeds performance, Lucy made a sensational debut at the Royal Albert Hall last year. Brad Kella will appear at this autumn's Live event at the Royal Albert Hall, promising more music to look forward to.
Despite extensive search results, information about the producers of a documentary film about Lucy, the blind and neurodivergent young pianist, remains elusive. Regardless, her story and her music continue to inspire and captivate audiences worldwide.
