Dear colleagues,
I apologize for being so late in answering. I could not have remembered the name of Artemi’s teacher. She is the blond lady who appears at second 17; she teachs him at the St. Petersbourg Conservatory.

You can also see Artemy almost one year ago playing  John Thomas’ Variations:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=N7mKub2MQ78

In this another video you can see the father of Artemi, Andres Izmailov, performing in Cardiff’s Congress. Is the same young man that in Artemi’s video appears taking a photo to the child.

Also the grandmother of Artemi is harpist (Natalya Izmailova), look and listen to her in this link:

I hope all people enjoy its!

Full text of Au Claire de la Lune in french and english:

Au clair de la lune, mon ami Pierrot

Prête-moi ta plume pour écrire un mot

Ma chandelle est morte, je n’ai plus de feu

Ouvre-moi ta porte, pour l’amour de Dieu

I’m standing by the moonlight, my dear friend Pierrot

Please give me a pencil, I need to write a note

My candle is dying, soon it will be dark

Open up your door please, Pierrot mon ami

Au clair de la lune, Pierrot répondit

Je n’ai pas de plume, je suis dans mon lit

Va chez la voisine, je crois qu’elle y est

Car dans sa cuisine, on bat le briquet

I’m standing by the moonlight, Pierrot answer me

I haven’t got a pencil, I’m lying in my bed

Go and ask the neighbor, I think that she’s at home

Someone’s in the kitchen, a flickering light is on

Refrain

Open up your door please, Pierrot mon ami
