In today’s world, where we’re surrounded by smartphones and online activities, not as many young people are interested in playing stringed instruments like the violin.
While technology gives us quick fun and entertainment through screens, the detailed craftsmanship and heartfelt sounds of a violin often get ignored.
Ignoring the beauty of the violin means turning away from centuries of musical heritage and the opportunity to dive into a rewarding journey of talent and imagination that only stringed instruments can provide.
But a teen girl from Ukraine is going against the odds.
Ladies and gentlemen, meet Karolina Protsenko.
According to her official website:
“Karolina Protsenko is 13 years old performing violinist, who was born on October 3rd, 2008 in Ukraine to a musical family. Her parents play guitar and piano.
The Family moved to the United States in 2015 when Karolina was 6. She started violin lessons the same year and is classically trained.
Karolina began busking in Summer 2017 at Santa Monica, CA. She has 3 YouTube channels and is on Facebook and Instagram.
In less than 4 years her fan base has grown into more than 10 million followers, in over 50 countries. Her videos on YouTube and other media sites have been viewed well over 1 billion times.
The duo wasted not a single minute and immediately jumped into action as they performed a musical cover of ‘Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da.’
Karolina started by gracefully swaying while making a good display of her impeccable violin-playing skills.
On the side, her 2-year-old backup was spinning and just enjoying the moment.
The two looked so amazing and thankfully, the beautiful moment was captured on video.
