Piano
prodigy Ryan Wang gave a unique private concert for 101-year-old Dorothy
Landry, months after captivating audiences on “The Ellen Show” and performing
at Carnegie Hall. In an intimate event organized by CBC Music, 5-year-old Ryan
played “Variations on an Inner Mongolian Folk Song” just for Landry.
Dorothy,
who had been a fan of Ryan since he was three, struggled to appreciate his
performance due to her hearing impairment. To give her a more personal
experience, CBC Music arranged this private performance.
In
a small room, Dorothy sat in her wheelchair while Ryan, holding a large teddy
bear and bouncing with excitement, performed next to her. Expressing his
gratitude, Ryan told "Grandma Dorothy" how much it meant to him to
play for her, making her beam with joy.
Dorothy,
in turn, called Ryan a “very special little person” and looked forward to his
future performances. She eagerly invited him to visit her again after his trip
to China, expressing her heartfelt thanks. This special moment highlighted the
bond between generations and the universal language of music.
