If we're talking Classical, which we are since this is the classical thread, then I think it's Chopin. I really love his Fantaisie-Impromptu Op. 66. It's insane how he was able to play the piano that fast. I'm actually working on this song. The bass (left) hand first. Then I will work on the right hand as soon as I master the left hand.

If we're talking modern, then I believe it's Amy Lee. She is a 9 year classically trained pianist. For those of you who don't know, she's the lead vocalist, pianist, and co-songwriter (Terry is the other co-songwriter) of Evanescence.

I also believe Tuomas Holopainen, of Nightwish, is a great pianist as well as Martin Foul, of Cradle Of Filth, and the pianist for AFI and Trivium.
