Ethan Bortnick, who just turned 8 today, is one talented kid! Not only that, he can hold his own in a grown-up interview. Just take a look at him with Jay Leno in the video above. When asked about his dad’s piano playing, Ethan complains that his dad just can’t learn to play, Mary Had a Little Lamb, no matter how much Ethan shows him!

Don’t let that fool you. He plays music far more complex than childhood tunes.

He’s a natural entertainer, and a delight to watch. He started playing piano when he was three. He’s played for or with a number of well-known artists. Ethan even writes his own music. He often composes music dedicated to animals. As much as he loves music, he says he’s going to be a zookeeper when he grows up, not a musician.

The animals are lucky to have such an enthusiastic advocate.

Pianist, composer and world-class entertainer Ethan Bortnick has appeared on Oprah, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Good Morning America, and Martha Stewart. He's shared a stage with Beyonce, Josh Groban, Santana, Natalie Cole, Nelly Furtado, Wyclef Jean, Smokey Robinson, Gloria Gaynor, Patti LaBelle, and The Pointer Sisters. He can play more than 200 songs from memory, has composed more than 30 pieces of music that are being published, and has raised record amounts for children's charities. (npr.org)
