We attended Pianist
Yuja Wang's concert at Ravinia Festival in Highland Park, Illinois. She performed Brahms'
Piano Concerto No. 1 on a Steinway Grand Piano, and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra accompanied her. Well done!
Ms Wang struck me as looking older than her 30 years. Her hair was well-suited for Summer performances as it was cut in an inverted wedge style. She wore an outfit which showed a lot of leg & arm, yet she was sweating
a lot when her Piano performance was over -- possibly because the 3-part Piano Concerto lasted almost an hour. She also performed two, cute encores; the last one was a special rendition of "Turkish March" by Mozart. Loved it!
Even with me on my folding chair on the lawn -- away from the main pavillion -- her high-heeled (stiletto) shoes caught my attention. They were gorgeous
Christin Louboutin shoes similar to the pics below in height. Yet, she managed to play well; and walked on and off the stage just fine.

Ms Wang will wear a long skirt only when she is 40 y.o.
