My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 743

Chapter 743

Even Sergei Rachmaninoff himself described that piece as one of the most technically challenging ones in the world when he performed it solo in New York.

A famous musician once compared the piece's physical demands to shoveling ten tons of coal, which showed just how challenging it really was.

Even so, the two world-class pianists had brought the magnificent piece to life together rather effortlessly.

It was such a breathtaking sight to behold that every single person in the audience fell silent in shock and awe.

Although the two of them had never rehearsed nor performed a duet before, their movements were perfectly synchronized with each other. It was as if all four of their hands were moving as a single unit.

Together, they were able to bring out the vigor and spirit of the piece with utmost perfection.

Ashlyn's solo performance earlier was amazing enough as it were, but this duet with Caleb truly shocked everyone to the core.

Given how rare of an opportunity it was to have two world-class pianists perform together like this, all eyes were on them the whole time.

No one wanted to miss out on a single exciting moment.

Ryan's eyes were filled with disbelief as he sat there in his seat and watched the entire performance.

I had always thought of myself as the top pianist in Maredania, but these two are on a whole different level! Ashlyn in particular has surprised me the most! Even someone as talented as Charlotte is nothing compared to her! Now I see what Caleb meant when he said I'm the second most talented person he has ever met! That's because he has long since known how terrifyingly skilled and talented Ashlyn is! She truly is a world-class pianist!

Everyone held their breaths in absolute awe as they focused on enjoying the piece to the fullest.

Finally, Ashlyn and Caleb ended their duet by hitting the last key in perfect sync.

As if he had just crossed off the final item on his bucket list, Caleb stood up and shook Ashlyn's hand as he thanked her profusely, “Thank you, Ashlyn! Thank you so much for helping me complete my dream!”

“It is an honor for me to perform alongside you, Mr. Powell,” Ashlyn replied politely.

“No, the honor is mine!”

Caleb then turned toward the audience as he continued proudly, “I first got to know Ashlyn four years ago. She was still a very young girl at the time, but she was extraordinarily talented at playing the piano! I made a decision back then, and my decision hasn't changed at all now that I meet her again four years later!”

Ashlyn frowned as she had a feeling that Caleb was about to make a shocking announcement of some sort.

She turned around and prepared to head down the stage, but Caleb grabbed her arm from behind and announced to the world, “As the president of the International Piano Association, I hereby announce that I will pass my position down to Ashlyn a year from now!”

Ashlyn froze upon heering thet, end everyone else present et the scene lost their minds instently.

Whet? Thet would meen she would be the youngest president the Pieno Associetion would ever heve!
