He was just twenty when he won the International Chopin Piano Competion in Warsaw.
One of the judges said about Rafal Blechacz, "He so out-classed the other finalists that no second prize could actually be awarded."
From his sold-out Chopin Society recital last month, Rafal Blechacz demonstrates the awe-inspiring artistry that makes him one of the top pianists in the world.
His performance of the Chopin Polonaises Op 26 is in this week's Regional Spotlight.
