Professional Violinists React to a 2-Year-Old PRODIGY Progress Video 

ema629: Very funny! 🎻🤣

@@marshallartz395 She is such an incredibly talented prodigy that classical violin music just runs through her veins. The doctors clearly saw this upon her birth as her first cry was to Paganini's Caprice No. 24. :-)

Black parents too it might be just mine....

I- Ok

Asian kids are trained if not they get the spanking!

True ~~~~~~~even for a 12 years old child 😮

And not mention having to practice finger placement at 3 YEARS OLD

Literally me in school:

Longer than 5 minutes, you mean.

I read an article about this chess Grand Master who wanted his daughters to learn chess but understood that if he forced them to learn that they would never become great because they would eventually resent him. So he started by putting chess pieces in their cribs and play area to get them interested and used to chess paraphernalia. Then he would play near them and eventually they asked questions about what he was doing and eventually asked to learn how to play. I think both his daughters ended up champions and all because he made it a fun game, not a chore.

go away you child psychologist

@@ayameisastarow that’s really nice- cause my parents wanted me to play piano but I didn’t really wanted to learn anything back then, but my parents said it was either I play piano or I’ll learn tennis. But I’ve never liked tennis so I just went with piano. But now my parents just force me to practice piano every day it’s getting a lot more annoying and it’s also talking away my time. And now they want me to play another instrument and it’s ok not too hard but still! I still have school and homework and other stuff that I have to take care of. It’s really sad. :(

@@ayameisastar He's playing phycological chess and planning for his kids' next few moves. Little did his daughters know that he had a checkmate in four before they were even born...

@@Akari_Yue Playing an instrument is more than entertaining, it's developmental. It shows up in unexpected ways. Like the children with the chess pieces in their crib, the human mind develops in different stages. Not unlike learning an extra language at an early age, music opens doors that might otherwise remain closed. A fundamental early experience with music can positively effect the understanding and aptitude with mathematics. You don't have to completely understand or appreciate that your parents want you to practice, and keep paying for your lessons. Try to appreciate that you have that opportunity, and that millions of children around the world do not. Even if you decide to stop at some point in your life when you make your own decisions, keep your last violin. I promise there will come a point when you miss it, and you'll pick it up again.

And if you become a young violin virtuoso you can’t take up Ophthalmology as a hobby in your spare time.

yeah.. they still got the limit of 15 or 13 I guess.. and still on med school

So ur 60… or not-

It’s shocking I know some of us our old as F I am lol

@@RDS812 Never too late, cuz you will get old anyway without starting practicing anything. Now you’ve started, so it’s an achievement itself. Be proud of yourself and keep going 🎉

​@RDS812 it doesn't matter what age you start at. But I would think 9.5 is very early

is this all you talk about it’s so freaking borring

Rare?? It's a 2 year old playing a violin. Good for her! Let's make her the goddess!

Really? She is really good, but it is standard Suzuki repertoire, and many start at 4. Witche's dance is book 2.

@@mamascarlatti I was a piano teacher at Freddy for Music, and we used the Trinity Guildhall method. I used to watch student concerts all the time and had close relations with Violine teachers and watched them teach frequently. I've never seen a girl that young playing this good in all of my teaching years. I must have taught at a sucky school then lol.

@@David-R. I agree she is very good - I'm really impressed by her bowing. But I have attended a lot of Suzuki violin camps and seen other excellent players at 7. Just not my kid lol. A lot of the kids start really young, and some take to it like a duck to water. The difference is that they don't read music at first, but they do lots of listening.

@@mamascarlatti "Just not my kid" 😂 Yeah, reading the comments I'm realizing that it's almost a common phenomenon to be able to play like that at this age. The school I taught at must have sucked. Violin is not my thing but I attended many student's concerts. Never scene a girl that young playing that good!

Yeah... LITERALLY lol

I was 4

Really?

Same tho

Relatable

She can do calculus already. Check other video

@@madewahyu9665 wtf, i can't even function when seeing calculus shts

Made Wahyu where?

i am 9 and i know how to read the bouree music notation

you should consider taking music notation classes then it will become a piece of cake to read that.

Uh, basically every kid in elite music schools plays by heart. At that age, memory is fantastic. Is later that it falls ;)

Musician for 50 years and the thing that amazes you is playing from memory here? Highly sus.

What’s her name?

@@cwjalexx I think what they mean is that at such an early age, her brain is more developed than other children her age, and therefore is impressive! :)

@@yukultt I guess...just feel like that's a common non-musician thing to be amazed at. I'm just tired of all these videos of world class musicians at their particular instrument playing a piece flawlessly and the top rated comment is, "wow, i can't believe they can remember all the notes"

That's a good one Im crying ahahahahah

Lmao this comment deserves more likes tbh

Lol

This is what jobs want. 10 years of experience when you only had 3 years of experience.

And she has perfect pitch

I started piano at age 4, and I don't exactly have perfect pitch but like my dad, I can identify pitches (I just am not good at giving you a pitch if you ask for me to hum one)...we both had been sung to or listened to music almost all day long every day our whole lives and we have music in our souls haha...anyway, yeah I was that kid who would spend all day every day playing music until my shoulder hurt so much I couldn't sit at the piano anymore (as a 6 year old, had some posture thing going on) and never got tired of the same music being played as soon as I'm sure my family members got tired of hearing me play it. But when I was a teenager one day my brother said a friend asked, "What, does your sister play every day or something?" and my brother just laughed at him..."Yeah, our whole family plays so someone is playing all day long every day, but mostly it's her...yeah, she definitely plays every day; she plays one to two hours every day." (And of course I've never been a virtuoso or anything like people are who play twice that much daily.)

@@jenny-qr7op How do I know?

@@xzy7196 it's generalising, but young talented musicians get burnt out at a young age and as a result and end up hating their craft.

@@xzy7196 I mean look at the kid, it's sad to say but she prolly wasn't the one that decided she learn the violin. Though correct me if I'm wrong

I'm so sorry that happened to you Sam. Sometimes parents and grandparents don't understand how devastating their reactions can be. Take some time, forgive them, and continue playing not because they want you to, but because you need to teach them a lesson. When that wears off find another reason.

I would rather say: I guess you habe pretty sick relatives. Who laughs at a child proudly presenting their skills. When I think AS a selben year ols after only one year the Violin Sounds squeaky. Probably you Were good. The teacher with her reaction at least seems to bei a more sane Person then the other people in this Story. I would believe her judgment more than I would theirs.

😭

Doesn't sound like your family is very supportive. I was 37 when I started learning, and it's hands down the most difficult instrument I've ever learned. It took a full 6 months before I even started playing in tune in the first position! I would trust your teacher, and start playing again.

@@neilharris2896 Same: it was hard to learn the places in the first position and I kept sliding 😂 but if you don’t stop trying and learning, it’ll be soo worth it!!! and the progress will be huge eventually

btw do u know her name? i want to see more performances from her :D

nvm! the video shows the girl's name

she started playing pagnini at 8 and iirc she's already mastered 7-8 of pagnini's caprices

@Sarah Garcia I don’t know, maybe? But those were the reactions me(a piano player) and my sister( a violin player) had.

😦... Twoset needs to do a part 2.

And she played with Henry.. damn. They need to see that.

Great link! Wow!

yessss hopefully they see this!

Up you go. This should be the next video!

I think that is the philosophy behind the Suzuki method, that children can quickly learn something such as a language could also be applied to music... very interesting

Mine was "she can get the Cheerios to her mouth without starting at the back of her head!"

No, it's the Suzuki method, she has listened over and over to the pieces, and the rest is memorisation, NO reading at this stage.

Same bro same

You were trying to lose consciousness because you couldn't take the stress of being cookieless lol

And the song is happy birthday

Hahahahaha chill dude, that's normal

Lol same

I can barely play jingle bells 😤✋🏻

Me too! 45 years old and playing Vivaldi concerto in A minor (first movement), is what I learned last year, and this year learning the second violin part of the double Bach in d minor (first movement).

Wait really- when my sister was literally like 2 or 3 she sat in the middle of the living room cutting up an entire stack of paper with scissors-

Right?? I've worked with two year olds that still had high chairs. And when they mentioned that she was playing from memory, that's impressive, but I was twice as impressed when it showed her reading music at like, 3 because most kids don't learn their alphabet until then or even commonly later

It's a wonder then as to how her parents even knew she could even be able to play something such as the violin at such an early age. Who's parents actually think like this and what exactly prompts them?

@@ChiefHerzensCoach How is Hungary related to this comment?

@@kuzumi920 Because Maddy mentioned how most 5 year old in her class don't have fine motor skill for scissors ..So Heidrun spoke of different teaching system in Hungary .They start teaching kids very early so they gain lot experience and skills :)

@@tingtinnggg4667 how I wish we were well-off 😌 I might've bought a piano and continue music. Lucky for you, you had the chance

@deadend That's just bizarre.

true enough

Is her parent the one playing the piano in some of them? Maybe they made playing instruments a game, and so she actually enjoys it and it's not psychological torture like with many kids who are forced into playing an instrument so their parents can brag to their friends about it...

@@TheGoldenDunsparce yeah....but I'm not sure about making a two year old go viral

@@lailataluminousnight8064 Yeah, if I had one, I'd never post photos or videos of my child online...

Not to be that guy, but she is probably being disciplined when she hits a wrong note, definitely crazy parents

@@iamchanman4041 I don’t think she would look that happy if her parents were like that. Look how she’s smiling while playing. Plus, even if her parents were like that, it still takes so much skill to make that much progress in a short amount of time.

@@iamchanman4041 - We don’t know a thing about that. She truly seems to like playing, but I don’t know how much she has to practice and how she likes that, if she is made to practice, which I do not agree with, if it happens to children.

@@iamchanman4041 Dude, I wouldn't make assumptions. If anything, listen to literally everyone else who can tell from the way she's smiling that she is enjoying herself.

@@iamchanman4041 my colleague told me his parents brutally beat him at three years old if he played a wrong note and was forced to play for at least three hours STRAIGHT a day. And he had to smile the entire time or else his parents were giving him up for adoption. His parents were arrested when the police found out and he grew up with his much nicer uncle after his parents were arrested though.

I started out at age 3 (about to turn 4) but I was petite so I started on a 1/16!! It’s the size of someone’s elbow to wrist!!

*the viola

@dudedud lol how ironic

Now slap like now mum

BASS

davie504 approves this message.

Suzuki doesn’t teach sight reading at the beginning. They use a simplified written form in the beginning ( letters for the notes, and highlight each one with a different color corresponding eith the string on which it is to be played.) and transition to actual sheet music later. So she probably isn’t reading most of that on a typical staff. Hugely impressive skill tho in such a little one!!

And you know what, I even still make some mistakes when reading simple sheet 😅

My kid could read the newspaper at 2.

I’m 99% sure she learned by ear. I’m a Suzuki teacher. Beginning students learn exclusively by ear-especially at such a young age.

When I was her age I ate mud and thought it was fun... Yup, that's what I did... I ate mud.

Super true

A good sign that her parents are still letting her be a kid.

No Body My mom plays over the rainbow on her violin, ( it’s 30 years old ) and loves the wizard of oz. I’m 9, and she’s letting me learn the violin! I just wrote this because of you’re profile.

@picolo pagalingling I feel like the teacher deserves a lot of respect bc of them the kid is amazing at violin

Well, maybe the teacher could be the parents. Probably, just an assumption.

@piccolo pagalingling A thought of a name is Piccolo Naganini.

It’s what the Suzuki Method was designed to do for anyone at any age. Incremental technique based on listening and rote memory. It’s also called the “Mother Tongue” method because it’s designed for the mother to study first for about 6 mos & to teach and share with the child. It mimics the way we learn language from (usually, in Patriarchal societies) the mother. Shinizi Suzuki’s family manufactured violins, so he knew how to make affordable instruments to size. He was trying to develop something to give children hope and self esteem after he saw how traumatized Japanese children were after the US invented overkill, for one thing, and annihilated so many civilians with the Atomic Bomb (speaking of darkness). It’s such an effective method it spread around the world & was adapted to other stringed instruments and piano.

The teacher didn’t do anything, because geniuses are born not created

exactly, she must have a great teacher

How messed up would it be if she was mostly self taught...

Kit Rose a two year old being self taught? Doubt it. *laughs nervously*

if she's Ling ling's descent then no doubt she practiced in her mother's womb lmao

And some supportive parenting as well.

@@monicapetitebonita218 hmm, like when the mother farts, we can hear paganinia

I guess this is how everyone should learn. The classic way of teaching is underestimating the power of Human mind... (After Understanding the music it is a lot easier)

@@Ahmed-mz7xo I mean it depends on the person. People who are super analytical would benefit more from applying music theory to their playing, but people who are more creative might learn better with lots of ear training. The sign of a good teacher is one who can recognize what each student needs, since everyone learns differently. With most super young kids, the ear training is very effective because their cognitive skills are still super low just due to age. But it really depends. In the vid, that little one was already reading advanced sheet music at 4, so you never know.

It is apparent that she's going through the suzuki method, given that a couple clips are at suzuki institutes, going through the suzuki books, and performing with piano accompaniment. You can review the teaching technique concepts summarized on wikipedia for those unfamiliar and it covers what you've said. But beyond the basics described, Part of suzuki concept is the repertoire is the same, and there are weekly performances by everyone in the class, so you not only learn the songs from recordings but every week you sit and hear other students play the pieces. So by the time you get to the new piece you already heard it 100+ times from other students, even if you weren't studying it yet you already know how the piece goes. Just like how 3yo can sing babyshark and complex pop songs that has rhythm shifts because they've heard it 100times. Kids even can parrot back the entirety of bohemian rhapsody with no concept of music theory.

@@raytseng1979 I was about to say the exact thing :D Yeah, I've been trained through the Suzuki Method, so I really know that she was also trained by the same method. Even the pieces (some I think cause I never went past Book 2) that she played came from Suzuki Books. :)

Yeh me and my siblings learnt the piano really young and we were all taught to "play by ear" first and learnt how to read sheet music alittle later

No Kudos to the parents. The only way a three-year-old gets that good at anything is if they practice 5 hours a day, every day. No exceptions,;no say in the matter. No friends. No playtime. She goes to lessons, does hours of practice, then school, more practics, sleep, repeat.

Kari Ziebarth we don’t know that. I’ve seen her other videos, I think she’s 6? now, and it seems that she really enjoys what she’s doing. Her eyes twinkle when she plays. I don’t want to judge on how her parents brought her up, but if she’s happy playing the violin, I’d say it’s still better than others who leave their kids in front of the tv the whole day.

@@Cesiaj I am still not even remotely convinced that she hasn't had this life forced upon her. I will however agree with you that it's better to have parents that care too much than ones who don't care enough.
