Beethoven’s Appassionata played on a tiny toy piano, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star performed across seven levels of increasing difficulty, Ravel’s Boléro for two pianos, with the performer switching between keyboards—those familiar with Hayato Sumino’s YouTube channel, Cateen (which has over 1.5 million subscribers), know that anything is possible with him.
Born in 1995, the Japanese pianist is a true virtuoso. Equally drawn to performance, improvisation, and composition, and holding a degree in engineering, Sumino has earned a spot on Forbes’ 30 Under 30 list for Japan. His debut is not to be missed.
