Move over, pop stars—there’s a new chart-topping sensation in town, and she’s been playing the piano since before your grandma was born.
Meet Colette Maze, a 100-year-old musical powerhouse who just dropped an album at 97 like it was no big deal. That’s right—while the rest of us struggle to remember our Wi-Fi passwords, this legendary pianist was busy recording a symphony of perfection.
With a career spanning almost a century, Maze is the last living student of Rachmaninov—which is basically like saying you learned painting from Da Vinci or were personally trained in basketball by Michael Jordan.
LEGENDS NEVER RETIRE—THEY RELEASE ALBUMS 
Some people hit 97 and consider it an achievement to make it up the stairs without groaning. Colette Maze? She decided to release an album like a total boss. And we’re not talking about some dusty, forgotten recording from decades ago—this is fresh, new, and absolutely mind-blowing.
How It’s Going vs. How It Started:
- THEN (1920s-30s): Learning piano from the actual Rachmaninov
- NOW (2020s): Releasing albums while TikTok stars try to figure out what a ‘C-sharp’ is
Her latest album is a masterpiece, a mix of soul, skill, and sheer defiance of time. The music world is stunned, speechless, and totally here for it.
Senior Stardom: When 100-Year-Olds Steal the Show
Colette’s musical career just put every 20-something with a SoundCloud account to shame. And let’s be honest, if there was ever a Grammy for ‘Most Impressive Career Longevity,’ she’d win it by default.
Possible Future Collabs:
AI Beethoven (spoiler: she’d win the piano battle)
A surprise Coachella appearance (because why not?)
A TikTok challenge: “Try to play like Colette Maze” (spoiler: you can’t)
What’s Next? A World Tour? A Rock Remix? A Battle Against AI-Generated Music?
Look, it’s only a matter of time before Colette Maze is headlining major festivals and making guest appearances on late-night talk shows. The world clearly isn’t ready for her level of legendary status.
Meanwhile, Rachmaninov’s ghost is somewhere slow-clapping in admiration. If he had a Spotify account, we bet he’d be streaming her album on repeat.
Buddy’s Take:
“This lady has more albums than most of us have working brain cells before coffee. A legend. If she starts a band, I’m buying tickets—front row.”
Rock on, Colette. Rock on.
