Timgill, If I tried it, even after a year, it'd be 30x slower than Hamelin who, I suspect, is from another galazy. :roll:

I have heard a rumour that the real Marc-Andre Hamelin disappeared a few years ago and was replaced by a humanoid developed at the Roswell base in America. The replacement had an inbuilt midi-processor to outperform the original pianist.
The press have in recent years heaped praise on Hamelins technical ability whilst at the same time questioning some of his musical qualities. This would add more evidence to the reported claims and rumours. I find this performance yet another biting piece of evidence to support the theory.
Obviously the real Hamelin must be allowed to make a public appearance and confirm or deny the existence of the humanoid clone.
