Blind girl, Lucy, with neurodiversity stuns crowd with Chopin piano performance!
‘She’s a miracle!’ Viewers break down in tears over ‘beautiful’ Chopin performance by blind girl, 13, at Leed's train station.
Viewers were left in tears after watching a blind 13-year-old girl flawlessly perform Chopin on the piano at a train station in Birmingham.
Budding pianist Lucy took to the keys on an episode of Channel 4's The Piano, a talent show hosted by Claudia Winkleman and judged by pop star Mika and concert pianist Lang Lang.
The show involves pianists performing at Birmingham New Street and London St Pancras stations in front of crowds while the judges watch in a secret room, before selecting one pianist at the end of each episode to perform on stage.
A clip of Lucy's performance, which has not yet been broadcast in full, was posted on Twitter by the Channel 4 official account, leaving viewers incredibly moved.
Her mesmerising performance stuns the crowd at the station who watch on in awe, with people online saying they were 'tearful' after watching the clip.
At the beginning of the clip, Lucy is led to the piano by a man who helps her find her seat, while Winkleman speaks to a woman who appears to be Lucy's mother or guardian.
The woman reveals Lucy, who is neurodivergent, covers her ears when people applaud her.
The woman explains: 'She likes the applause, but she doesn't like the sound of the applause.
'So her fingers go in her ears for sensory reasons.'
When Winkleman asks if she needs to tell the crowd not to clap, the woman insists Lucy 'loves the applause'.
Dressed in a navy blue tulle dress with gold butterflies and a white cardigan, with her hair in bunches, Lucy prepares to play Chopin's Opus 9 Number 1.
A crowd forms around the piano, with many people recording her on their phones. Meanwhile Mika and Lang Lang, who are watching the clip in a separate room, look visibly moved and watch the performance with open mouths.
At one point, Mika holds his hand up to his mouth and appears to fight back tears.
Lang says: 'It's unbelievable that she can play this piece. How - how does she study? I mean, it's incredible.'
As Lucy finishes the piece and the crowd applauds her, Lang can be heard saying: 'Oh my God. Oh my God this is - this is impossible.'
He adds: 'I'm speechless, I don't know what to say.'
Mika, with tears in his eyes, laughs and replies: 'There's nothing to say.'
He added he was 'flummoxed' and left 'speechless' by Lucy's moving performance.
After the clip was posted on Twitter, users echoed the judges' sentiments.
'Wow! Made me teary eyed that. Amazing stuff,' one person said.
Another wrote: 'A magical and beautiful performance by Lucy. An inspiration to everyone watching and a reminder that being neurodiverse is a gift.'
Describing the clip as 'stunning', one viewer said: '[Lucy] looked so wrapped up in a cocoon of beautiful sound and her playing looked effortless.'
Other people wrote that the clip had given them a 'big smile' and was 'uplifting' to watch, while a piano teacher shared her experience of coaching a blind student.
She wrote: 'Blind musicians are incredible in how they learn and memorise music. I have been so blessed by my own, young blind student who has challenged me to look again at my teaching and more besides.
'Lucy featured here is very special.'

Lucy is wonderful. Her teacher deserves a lot of credit and praise.
Tell me about it and remember her mom is the o e that did the miracle
I've never heard this piece played as beautifully and emotionally as Lucy has. Chopin would be proud
And her mum
I feel like all those people watching: Stunned. Not ashamed to admit that this made me cry. Her expression through the piano is beyond beautiful.
For Lucy to impress Lang Lang ....speaks volumes....God bless her, her mum and her wonderful teachers & support group
Seeing Grands like Mika and Lang Lang mesmerized and baffled with Lucy playing just brings a smile to my tearing eyes.
I've listened to hours of classical music. With Lucy this is the first time I really understood it. May God bless her heart.
Autism takes a lot away, but it can give so much more back. Lucy is wonderful. How great to have parents and a teacher to bring the absolute best out of her.
it's my understanding she has autism like symptoms, but if i heard right not been actually diagnosed with autism.
Lucy is such a gifted piano player !! .she does not pound the keys but plays gently and delicately with such depth ... simply phenomenal !! BRAVO !!
Chopin method
Such a beautifully played Nocturne (my favorite, actually). Lang Lang was so right in that Lucy actually sang that piece through the fluid motion of her hands on the piano. Truly a gift from God. Thank you for sharing Lucy with the world, she is such an inspiration. ♥
this song has so many meanings to me, mainly my great grandma (im polish) that rendition was so beautiful, im a 36 year old man and this 13 year old girl played that so well that i full on cried and had to step out for a cigarette. nocturne no 9 op 1 takes years to play as beautifully as this. the delicacy of the notes,, technicalities, etc... amazing. im with lang lang, this should legit be impossible. her condition is not holding her back, but excelling her savant talents. please someone help lucy make an official youtube channel, everyone would follow her. all the best girl!
@@mattebabel her father Mark created a RUclips channel of her playing different pieces www.youtube.com/@markillingworth4836/featured
She plays beautifully in SPITE of God's handiwork on her behalf.
Lucy's happiness, when she is playing, whether in presentation or learning, is the most beautiful thing about watching her videos
I have seen Lang Lang play from memory live with the Detroit Symphony. For him to be impressed is something.
Every time I hear Lucy play, I tear up. Absolutely incredible.
props to the teacher! He must be awarded of something
It breaks my heart to see her at 11:47 having a different experience than the rest of the children. I hope she can glimpse the reality of her magnificence. She’s incredible
it's worth a thought that it is perhaps us who have a different, lesser experience than her. I wish her all the best and I truly hope we can bring more exemplars such as her out of humanity the more we broaden our horizons
Lucy so deserves to be in this competition ...she deserves the recognition and the sharing of her beautiful talent to the world ....she totally mesmerized Lang Lang ❗🎼🎶🎶🎹🤗❤😘🇨🇦
I don't even know what to say besides the beauty of Lucy is something not from this world. Absolutely heavenly.
Absolutely!
It is an amazing thing on how the brain is able to compensate when one area of the brain isn't functioning and putting it's energy in another area. I love how amazed lang Lang is.
How?😮. This is impossible. She’s absolutely an angel.
When you look into Lang Lang's face, you know it's damn good! Soo overwhelming the feeling to know that she's blind, but she can play it!
I’ve played music for almost 20 years, I’ve been a fan of a pretty wide variety of different types, and I can’t say I’ve ever heard someone play more emotively than this girl. I’m not even a fan of classical music and this moved me in a way that surprised me. It’s incredible how much pure feeling she is able to imbue into her playing, especially playing music composed by someone else. Wow.
ive been playing piano last 25+ years... if this is not miracle of human nature, i dont know what is... she is absolutely incredible.
It feels like a glimpse of what human nature was created to be. I think this is the most beautiful piano performance that I have ever heard.
Beyond amazing, inspirational for all to appreciate
GOD!
They choose the right pianist! She’s definitely deserved it! It’s show no matter the disability you have you can achieved anything and believes in yourself. She’s doing great things in life. She’s has a lot of support and loves around her. She’s blessed and should be.
Thank you for letting the world see these extraordinary examples of genius.
Her mother must be so proud and her teacher. Thank you for showing us this video. Every human life is precious and we can achieve the impossible only if there is a will.
Or we shall look up to this mom or family, who makes all this happen for her.
She is so inside of magic world of music that she doesn't need to see own fingers. And She is playing so beautifully.... just amazing talent
Her playing makes me cry, every time
This beautiful, gorgeous girl has an amazing talent and she has an amazing music teacher, Daniel Bath!
I just adore her so much. Goodness, I do. Sweet precious musical wonder. What a treasure and gift she is to us all. ❤
Perfectly said ❤
Super happy that YT's algorithm recommended this video for me! Lucy's performance was spectacular!!!
me too
I come from Chopin's homeland and I have been his admirer for a long time. I have heard and listened to many performers of this genius, the creator of fantastic classical music and here I must say briefly, this is the most beautiful performance I have ever heard, and I have heard a lot of them. I cordially greet and wait for more of your performances.
Lucy is incredible. Her playing touches my heart. I think because she playing from the heart. And i realy love the sound of the piano. And it doesnt matter or its classic or modern. Oh i forget her teacher. That man is amazing.
I immidiatly got teary eyed from how sensitively she is touching the notes of the piano, she's amazing.
Dang it! Lucy always makes me cry! She's great! I love her!
I mean it really is outside of my realm of understanding. It’s tremendous.
On Lang Lang's face, the certainty and credulity of what Lucy's pure talent is.... where all that magic comes from is decidedly wonderful....
You're so naive it's cute
I thought that was Lang Lang!
Amazing. She has had a really good teacher. And she probably learns a lot by listening, maybe perfect pitch. Wonderful.
When she plays you begin to think of the world watching her play this music. This is God’s gift!
She has such a light touch that it almost sounds like bells ringing. This is in my favorites folder to watch again and again. Thank you for your reply.
Leave our gifted children out of your *god* delusion.
Sorry..a gift from humanity! Con rispetto per tutte le Religioni.😍😍
YES! is right! Beautifully played a beautiful piano piece! Lucy is stunning!
So is her Mom, family, and piano teacher. Along with those who brought Lucy into this performance, including all the performers.
Omg.. i was cool until the last few minutes when he said "she (Lucy) speaks through music. And you feel like it's important for her to communicate." ... I felt that 😭❤️
She's gorgeous! When I heard her play I knew this song was written for her to play someday. It was meant to be. I am in tears...
Are we going to get to see her performance at the Royal Festival Hall?
Слов невозможно подобрать о этом сюжете ... Люси , талантливый ребенок , прекрасный артист , человек с большой открытой душой ... Браво ! Люси , пусть твоя жизнь будет светлой и счастливой несмотря ни на что !!! Браво !!!
It's the musicality for me. So beautiful. 🥹🥹🥹🥹
Absolutely Angelic, Heaven inspired, touched by God and guided by his angels... what more can I say, but most inspirational
angels take many forms and teach many things , humility, appreciation, value
I'm sure Chopin would love this.
If a blind person can do this and most people with eyes wide open never will, makes you wonder who is actually the blind one?
Best comment ever!
That’s soul searching comment, bravo.
Agreed. When I was in school, my first and third piano teachers were both totally blind and they could play very well. They both could play more than one instrument also. I was very fortunate to have them as teachers. Many of the lessons that they taught me, I use today as I play the piano.

Bravo!
I personally feel Lucy is a gift God has given humanity to bring healing to our world. Her beauty and music has moved me so emotionally, I strongly feel this is intentional for all of humanity to see Lucy, to wake up and embrace the beauty each of us possess and finally come together with love for one another unconditionally. This beautiful child carries with her the highest level of spiritual soul. There is no doubt in my mind she will transform every person who learns about her into a more caring, loving and gentle soul themselves.
How magical can music be that touching our hearts so deep Lucy you have stolen so many heart now be proud and God bless you and your Mom
God will guide you were you will be !
Absolutely beautiful… I love everything about this. The whole world would have stopped to listen to her
Thank you so much for sharing Lucy with us. What a remarkable young lady.
Thank you.
I'm a 58yr old Black man in the USA that had mostly everything I wanted and needed as a child when it came to musical opportunities. From classical Trombone in school to private Piano lessons. And I didn't appreciate the blessings. And now at 58yrs old I'm studying Piano and Guitar seriously and at the moment I can't stop the tears from falling as I watch this young girl do without her sight, what I couldn't do with sight along with opportunity.
This is a true testimony of what true willpower looks like. Also, when I watch her play flawless classical music, I sense the Spirit of God hovering around her. How can anyone believe that this type of miracle is by chance. It's simply not logical that this can happen accidently. 😢😢😢
Amen brother!
I would assume with her sensitivity a piano out of tune might bother her as well? Absolutely astounded by how amazing she is, the talent literally just explodes out of her in a wave of sound that takes you away on a magical journey.
I met Lucy's mom Candice on social media years ago. I watched many videos of Lucy as she was learning. This makes me so proud to see her blossom into this. She also played at the King's coronation concert last weekend. ❤
So beautifully played!! Her Mum is lovely too! They have been through so much.
Three Words, incredible, amazing, beaugtiful. She makes me cry every time
Absolutely beautiful. Great job Lucy. Great job parents.
True talent and courage 👏 just beautiful and brilliant
We appear to be so small in front of this miracle of life ! She reminds me my first sister who passed away at the age of 9 . She was born with lots of medical problems.
I don't know but this video change something inside me forever!
Thank you young lady 🙏
I wonder if she will compose her own music one day, what a joy that will be to hear...
this girl has managed to transform the suffering she is faced with every day into joy through music she really feels a unique way of approaching the instrument, it is easy to convey sadness if you are sad but it is much more difficult the other way around
What a most beautiful family,, and I hope their story reaches THE WORLD.
I've not shed more heartfelt happy tears like this in a long long time..... Grateful
You all got no idea how hard it is for her and her love ones,bless them
What a patronising comment. What makes you think we haven’t?
Music makes you free. I wish everyone who reads this fulfillment in your own way. I think Lucy found her in music, as I do so too. I always get lost AND find myself in music.
Let look forward to listen more of Lucys beautiful playing. 🌈
She's a miracle... This sensitive to play the piano is amazing.
Wow, the emotions she and her music wrench from the heart!
Lucy is so talented! Thank you for this special moment, beautiful young Lady! I hope many more of them will follow....there are so many miracles in this chaotic world, Lucy is one of them❤ she has the ability to make life peaceful for a view minutes, so listen to her!!
She can see far better than any of us.
Fantastic to see the full broadcast. Thanks for sharing this wonderfull and heartwarming performance.
So emotional and so unique. Thank you for your passion for music.
I just can’t stop watching this ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
She is truly a gift from God!! 🇨🇦❤️
Thank you so much for posting this, and the other video clips from the show, for all of us to enjoy!
Маме Люси низкий поклон за ее безусловную любовь к дочери.
Dear God, you can be so cruel and then turn around and be so kind and then generous.
Bless this young lady !
As I watch this, I can't comprehend the tears streaming down my face. I'm relieved to know, I'm not the only one crying through this.😂❤ So beautiful and pure. Thank you God, for putting such beautiful people in our path. 🙏💕
She played so beautifully 💖 not ordinary. This sounded so pure, innocent, and full of emotions. Incredible 💝
Such a God given gift to this beautiful child. brilliant teacher and of course her beautiful mother. I can only imagine what a typical day is like with Lucy and her mother. Bless your heart Mom.❤
It’s just amazing and unique.
Simplemente, maravilloso extraordinario, que dulzura y sentimiento ❤
Una delicia escucharlos a todos, pero Luci es especial, fuera de serie.
International Piano Competition Fryderyk Chopin's (often abbreviated as the Chopin Competition) - one of the oldest and most prestigious music competitions in the world in the piano class, held every 5 years in Warsaw is waiting for her.
Hay cosas que escapan a nuestra razon y Lucy es la muestra de ello .Es una bendicion verla y escucharla .
This young lady is hands down the best pianist currently in the world today, in my opinion. Her ability to transcend the most technical pieces on the piano into pure emotional connection is unparalleled.
For someone who has trouble with communication, she sure communicated the hell out of that piano
and just like that.."A Star Has Been Born"
It's so hard to dissociate the visuals from the audio, but if I do, it's amazing.
And so I'm even more amazed to consider the beauty of such wonderful music coming from a young girl with what I can only imagine are severe impediments.
Absolutely astounding.
This is being channeled from somewhere deep in her soul and is very very special…….
Lucy’s mother and teacher helped her unlock her brilliance.
I am in awe with of them all..❤
She's beautiful and amazing
She is my fav piano player ever just incredible
Esse senhor que está sempre ao seu lado é Luz dos olhos de Lucy❤❤
she is incredible.
The love off her Mother is so touching,this is true LOVE,and Lucy is so breathtaking as Her.
She sure is. An Amazing Artist
Lucy ,The Touch of God .❤
Lucy is an amazing performer !
He disfrutado mucho con esta niña maravillosa , es un placer oírla tocar con tanta sensibilidad . Cuánto me hubiera gustado entender el contenido de este reportaje en español.
I'd like to think that this is the music heard in heaven.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful story of this extraordinary musician ❤️
The Schumann' s opus played by her always dismantles me into pieces. 😢
Lucy talks with music . Lucy is a God’s gift for us
Love to her Mother's dedication to find something that she likes and connected her with a beautiful communication of art through piano - Thank you so very much
