the sprite's a natural

Here's wee little Karolina Protsenko, busking with her violin-and-karaoke setup:


With all those twirls and swirls, little Karolina looks ready to play violin while figure skating.

ADDENDUM: I asked my brother Sean, a professional cellist, what he thought of Karolina. His emailed response was:

She’s good for her age, but absolutely not like prodigy level or anything like that. She can be a good violinist if she keeps practicing, and if her practice consists of real technique work and not just violin pop karaoke. This type of music is literally some of the easiest music to play and doesn’t push her technique at all. But her setup and position look good.
