And what is the name for that performance technique--making the judges believe you are playing ALL the piano notes they hear when some of it is actually overlaid piano music playing in the background with the orchestra.
Hmm, I'm not sure if there's a name for it when it refers to instrumentalists--it seems like it would be analogous to lip-synching, right? Gross. At least Miss Wyoming didn't do that, but the fact that her technique will land her at the chiropractor/physical therapist within a few months might make up for it...
