When a phone interrupts Hayato Sumino’s Gershwin solo… 📞 🎹

This is the genius of 角野隼斗 - かてぃん at Classic FM Live, where he made his @royalalberthall debut playing Rhapsody in Blue with Royal Scottish National Orchestra under Ben Palmer 🇪🇺. Watch the full concert soon on Sky Arts.

Sometimes, musical genius is just a phone call away...
