There are quite a few musical instruments that are easy to learn. However, there are quite a few ones that will require years to learn, let alone become a master.

But it’s not impossible at all, especially if a learner will put in all the time and effort in learning how to play a particular musical instrument.

Although we are talking about mastering the craft, learning, and eventually becoming an expert.

It’s no secret to most of us that there are some who are called ‘gifted’ or ‘music prodigies.’

Do you know, Karolina Protsenko?

Do you want to see how good she really is?

Just recently, Karolina performed in a not-so-crowded outdoor venue where she was just enjoying the gift of music.

Together with a couple of young dancers, she did a violin cover of ‘Footloose’ by Kenny Loggins.

The 80s song known for being upbeat and inviting, is indeed a perfect tune to play outdoors.

Under the heat of the scorching sun, Karolina gave everyone watching something to lighten up their busy days.

The young violinist wasted no time and started brushing through her string instrument. On the side were four young dancers serving as her backups.

Everything seemed to be going smoothly as planned when suddenly, a surprise unfolded right before the amused viewers’s eyes.

Instead of just playing the violin, Karolina started dancing too!

This teenage girl is, without a doubt, a total performer. While most people thought she could only create music with her hands, she could also pull off some slick dance moves with her feet.
