In the second programme, sixteen-year-old Alexander Prior goes to Shanghai in search of China's most brilliant piano prodigies.
In recent years, the Chinese have fallen in love with Western classical music, and with the piano in particular: the country now has 30 million piano students.
With help from two piano professors at the Shanghai Conservatory, Alex meets and auditions four astonishing young pianists aged eight to 12.
He then faces the difficult task of deciding which one to choose - and breaking the news to all of the children.
