– Six-year-old Guillaume Benoliel’s parents sent him for his first piano lesson when he was just four years old. Since then, he’s studied with some of the world’s top teachers and recently won two prizes at a Mozart competition in Salzburg, Austria. “I’ve met talented people in my career but not like him,” his teacher tells Reuters. Benoliel won first prize in the young musician category and a special prize in the exceptional young talent category. He performed at a concert in the city’s concert hall earlier this month.
