Most of us have at least some experience of being impressed by talented children.

From talent shows to media exposure, the new generation has had bigger, better and more frequent opportunities to display their interesting skills.

It’s hard to learn to play the violin, let alone to be a professional player, but this 12-year-old girl will amaze you.

The young girl was born in Ukraine, but her parents moved to the United States in 2014, and Karolina started violin lessons the same year.

She was only six years old when she first started to play, so she has spent half of her life with the instrument. If you didn’t see the video and only heard her play, you would have never thought it was played by a child on the instrument!

Her style is mature, classical, on point and very precise.

However, there is something playful in the way she brings those notes to life. Karolina began busking in late 2017. When summed up on all platforms, her video has been viewed more than 500 million times!

The latest album Karolina released is called Sky, we would say that the name is very symbolic.

It suits her well because only the sky is the limit for this talented girl whose skills and popularity continue to grow. The adorable girl has appeared on many TV shows and has garnered much praise from America’s Got Talent judge and comedian Howie Mandel.

Despite the new-found fame, Santa Monica 3rd Street promenade remains Karolina’s favorite place to play.

That’s where the video was taken, and we love it! The thing we really like about her performance is that she keeps it completely natural.

Her outfit, hair, attitude and behavior all suit her age.

We’re proud of her and of her parents too, because she’s not trying too hard to grow up before it’s time. Karolina radiates joy—she looks as if she enjoys her childhood to the fullest, and the violin is her companion.

People are mesmerized, and there are plenty of reasons why.

Judging by people we see in the video, everyone reacts well to her. Karolina is a true gem, and it’s amazing how she moves with her bow movements. The girl feels the music in her whole body and lets the music lead the way.

You can almost hear the choir of angels singing along with her playing!
