I highly doubt there was love involved. The training has to be merciless and relentless.

Love and nurturing do not do that, an innate ability that can't be taught is responsible.

You may be correct...although i did not see the whip that does not mean there wasn't one close by...

Well that can only be half right because no one is just born with the ability to play there had to be a a fair bit of learning to go with the talent.....

That's pretty incredible. Especially for 4 years old. I've been seeing quite a few of these musically-inclined child prodigies lately. I don't know if it's simply due to everything being on the internet, or if they are becoming more common, but either way, they're quite remarkable.

Here's a girl I recently found, she's 14, so a little older, but, damn...I know professional guitarists who have been playing their entire lives who can't play as well....

He's not better than the masters, but he will be.

Logic would suggest that, but it's completely false. Some people can literally sit and play with no learning at all. They are actually born with the ability.

Love is what nurtured the child from conception to birth. Special love. Think about all of the variables that go into a pregnancy. Stresses on the mother alone are enough to create defects within the child. I would be interested in asking the mother about her faith.

I know for a fact they have to see, observe and hear. This ability runs in my gene pool (skipped me over), but no one born being able to play without experiment.

I did pick up on a few mistakes, the kid is good but far from a master, and even with a gift, that is hundreds of hours of practice that the kid should have been playing. You don't push kids like that, and clearly, this kid has been pushed.

I have seen people with this gift who mothers suffered extreme poverty and hunger while pregnant. Your story sounds lovey, but innocent and naive.

Not sure love has anything to do with it. He seems To possess a natural talent and practices a lot which could be due to his own desire to play his home piano all day long or pressured to do so all day long.

Well, you can say whatever you like about training... That kid got as good as he is because he LOVES IT! You can hear it, and you can see it. He is clearly having a great time!

This is a valid point,the combination of a love for it and the nurturing from the parents....

I'm with you on that. I too was born with a gift that turned into a passion as soon as I was old enough to finger the keys. It was nothing for me to sit for hours on end and play. The sound became like a dome that enveloped me. My parents had to pry me away from the piano and literally push me out the door to go out and play. I was happiest at the keyboard, no question about it.

These child prodigies make you want to throw what ever instrument you are trying to play out the feckin window because you suck.
