Elizabeth Aoki
Here at PT, we're in the business of bringing you amazing performances every day. But once in a while, we hear one that stops us in our tracks. Today, we'll hear from a young lady who brought down the house with her recent performance at the Aspen Festival, 9-year-old violinist Elizabeth Aoki. She sits down with host Fred Child for her first-ever interview. And with a future as bright as hers, it certainly won't be her last.
