With her whole heart and soul poured into her music, she captivated an entire street with her stunning rendition of Dua Lipa’s “Levitating.”

At just 15 years old, Karolina, a Ukrainian violin prodigy who moved to the U.S. when she was six, has music running through her veins.
Her talent is no surprise, considering both her parents are guitarists.
She took up the violin in 2014 and began sharing her gift on the streets in 2017.
Karolina’s street performances have a magical quality that has captured the hearts of many, leading to their viral spread on social media.
Her favorite spot for busking is Santa Monica’s 3rd Street Promenade.
Her unique talent even caught the attention of “The Ellen Show,” and she showcases her vocal skills on her popular YouTube page as well.
One of her videos, a cover of Dua Lipa’s hit, exploded in popularity, amassing 47 million views.
In this video, Karolina doesn’t just play the violin; she dances and twirls with it, creating a captivating spectacle.
By no surprise, people on the street can’t help but stop and watch the incredible show.
Among the audience, a little girl was particularly entranced by Karolina’s dynamic energy.
Initially shy, she soon found herself dancing alongside Karolina, completely caught up in the rhythm and joy of the moment.
Turns out, this little one’s got some moves!
Although it wasn’t planned, they made quite the adorable duo.
While Karolina’s performance lit up the street with joy, she humbly credited the little girl as the real star of the show.
Her spontaneous dance added a special charm to the already lively performance.
Karolina’s fans on YouTube were delighted by the duo.

Another added, “I’ve never seen a dancing violinist! You’re amazing. What a lovely way to spread light and joy! Much success to you!”
