Wow, isn't that Andrew Litton, the Music Director Emeritus of Dallas Symphony Orchestra?

I've always watched him from the back and never knew how he looked like when he was jumping. He jumped a lot. He is great. A fantastic pianist too.

Edit to add: Loved Stephen Hough/Andrew Litton recordings of Rachmaninoff: Piano Concertos Nos. 1, 2, 3 and 4; and Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini, with Dallas Symphony Orchestra.

I'll do some comparing
