The concert features winners, Veronica Hrdovo, Guitar - Julie Svecena, Violin and Anastasia Vorotnaja, Piano with the Czech Radio Symphony conducted by Alfonso Scarano.

Anastasia Vorotnaja plays the Mozart Piano concerto - they still make child prodigies these days.


This concert definitely ranks high on the Anti-Road Rage Wednesday charts.

Enjoy.
