Seven-year-old Tran Bang Tam from Hanoi has recently won the first prize at the American Protégé Piano and Strings Competition 2018.

 
Tam, currently a student of the Newton Grammar School in Hanoi, was the second youngest contestant in the competition. As a winner, she was invited to perform at the Carnegie Hall in New York City on June 30.

To obtain this result, Tam had practised at least two hours a day over the past more than 2 years, said piano artist and her teacher Khanh Linh.

This July, Tam will participate in the Sydney Eisteddfod 2018 in Australia.
