[@asmith8815]

It is so wonderful to hear a very musical player and not just flashy playing.

[@cecilia7259]

yup

[@Vvncai]

He's Canadian... I'm so proud!

[@donaldirvine1898]

I must say he was brilliant at 13 years old when playing.

[@peterwilliams7335]

He is simply amazing. The sound he produced was so deep and emotional and full of soul. He was only 13. He is definitely protégé.

[@mangomandaa]

so full of raw emotion.

[@Zeegoner]

I mean someone give this kid a hug you know XD

[@MsIMC2009]

You are fantastic, so precise and so musical!

[@asmith8815]

It is extremely touching.

[@liamneville6487]

His dress sense is similar these days! Silk! Perhaps to match the lovely tone he's able to draw from any violin! ;) Whether it's a Stradivarius, Guarnerius, Guadagnini.... any of the great makers. Awesome playing at such a young age too :) An old head on young shoulders

[@cecilia7259]

Yes! I noticed that too! The same style at 13 and at 23, lol.

[@qatartube2011]

each note is beautifully conveyed!

[@asmith8815]

Wonderful vibrato.

[@toth-music]

[@makromize100]

Génial, c'est le qualificatif qui me vient en écoutant ce prodigieux violoniste! Cette magnifique musique était logée dans ma mémoire! Et vous, qu'en pensez-vous? ♥

[@HorizonsUnlimited]

My mother used to admire how many Asians (Yo Yo Ma, etc) have become masters at adopting Classical (European) music. Calvin Sieb (concertmaster at the MSO) and I remember him well as my mom was a 34 year member of the MSO as well, was Kerson's teacher. Talk about a small world!

[@KosteckiAdam]

Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@pianogirl4ever]

[@grenadasparta]

@Rupertbear16 u have a great classmate, man, and this fact comes from me, one of his cousins.

[@evelau]

@EvilyfyedTortoise He is 13 I believe.

[@BBRENTTAGHAPP]

@wikct2 13 at the time and he's Canadian i believe?

[@Miguel53de]

He is from Ottawa, where I have seen him and volunteered the concerts. One time it was under the direction on John Rutter himself. Rutter wrote a work specific for that young man in 2010. Nobody less that Yehudi Menuhin told him to do so. This fantastic piece of music can be seen on KZbin too and with Kerson Leong and John Rutter. It is called „Lamento for Jerusalem“. Absolutely impressive. Kerson actually lives and still studies in Brussel, Belgium.

[@gnatural]

@EvilyfyedTortoise then you better keep them open hahah, cause that sound nothing like itzhak.

[@Zeegoner]

hhahahhahahahhahhahahaha nice face XD

[@assa123assa123]
