[Laurselsvampieraat]

[AmyLeeRox4EvaAndEva]

At what age did you start playin the violin???

[yeokia89]

[AerithyZacky]

Wow! O.O You are so talented!

[fmaneko217]

Is there a way to buy the violin part sheet music for this?

[royalmeadow]

You are one of the most talented musicians/singers I have ever heard. Do you have a recording contract with anyone?. If not,why not!!!. I would purchase your cd without question. You are awesome :D

[aFlowerSmiles]

WOW, it's soo cool! Wished I could see your fingers flowing over your violin *__*

[81Scorp]

When I first clicked on this video I thought "when does the singing start, I wanna hear how she sounded when she was 13"

Then I read the description again: "Violin solo" ^_^ hehe... silly me.

That was some great violining Kate! TTvTT

[runincircles70]

WOW.. enough said..

[chikagegodo]

You play so much better now? But that video is already like... PERFECTION D: you must be beyond godly

[HachiHaruChika101]

Ah, the playfulness of this song makes me smile.

[kauverify2]

She was 13 when I was born. :'D

[rythpanther77]

[jaseyrae828]

You should cover that safe and sound song from the hunger games soundtrack:) that would be amazing:)

[Lucia2Ronja]

@jaseyrae828 Absolutely! If you know what The Hunger Games is, of course, and if you'd like to do it. :)

[Lithawen]

[thelonerockertype]

Amazing! I'm blown away!

[cjsimpao37]

so the name katethegreat is not a exaggeration ^^

[MarthofGermania]

@cjsimpao37 It's an understatement,

[KeybladeChampion]

Having next to no musical knowledge of my own, it's hard for me to judge this... But it certainly sounds great, which is all that matters imo :D

[apaloosa01]

@KeybladeChampion No no; it REALLY is insane. (Especially aged 13)

[xXTaylorGatesXx]

Bravo!

[Ssmokesignals]

OK now I'm completely in awe!

[CnoevilSpknoevil]

Terrific violin playing! I had no idea you had been such a serious violinist.

[benejeserit]

I love the violin and this song is incredible. It obviously runs in the family :) You're amazing, I love this. I'm glad you posted it. It's beautiful.

[moonsereniti]

[Greenfire31]

[BygPhattyPlus]

[btpbtpbtp]

Awesome.



[sweettooth1112]

Kate

[eynesprayer]

I know this is cheesy and we all had enough of it, personally I ignore this kind comments, of which I am going to make one:

How did those two people there even find the dislike-button? Did the relentless beauty force them to bend over backwards? Did the astonishing talent turn their world upside down? Did they have some kind of stroke that second, because their brain couldn't bare the sheer awesomeness of this?

I mean: I get, that one can't like everything. But how can you not like THIS? How?

[goldenfantasygirl]

@eynesprayer quite simply put they where probably jealous 

[MitsukoCat]

ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS!

[Troisnyx]

Mind-blowing, and especially refreshing. Kudos! xx

[ChoNatsuko]

You were and you are amazing! And you will be even more amazing in the future! I envy your talent for art çAç

[golddemona]

Holy.... There are no words to describe how beautiful this sounds. O_O

The instrumentation and the mixing is perfect. ^^

[FandeJay]

Is there anything you CAN'T do? ^^ The melody is deliciously quirky!

[xOmniCloudx]

You were this talented at 13? I think I was being an angsty teen then. You win BY FAR!

[RoxasGF]

Wow, that's amazing... can I ask , what grade were you at the time?

[kankypoo]

You were so good, even back then. @_@

[KuranYuxi]

^_______^ -does a little happy dance to the music- :DDD

I can totally imagine little child-kate playing this! :P

[joeynono]

WOW!

[R1R2R3L1L2L3]

WOW!! At 13 and your playing like that!!

You sooo talented back then and have only gotten better and better. Way to go!

(^_^)

[ikeorch7]

Wow! This is truly amazing! Thank you for sharing this! Love you Kate! ^_^

[soujiro75]

Impresive!

[ThroughBloodAndRain]

Oh, wow, brilliant O.O Could you upload some violin tutorials, just the basics?- I want to learn :/

[supershigi]

That was fantastic! Even at only 13, you still played with such emotion and depth :)

[DoRayMeFa]

Amazing, esp. for a 13 year old.

"Prodigy much" ? :-)

[Badalight]

Pretty good for a 13 year old.

[xPwahaha]

wow, you were so talented even at age 13!! this is so impressive :)

[Ricecakes520]

wO_Owie. I'm just speechless. Amazing!

[46LCG]

Geez Kate, your whole family is musical! I enjoyed this so much-I love hearing violins (or chamber music) and the visuals were wonderful. You captured the Latin flair so well! Please upload more if you can!

[02Himekochan]

dear... If only I could be born again... I'd like to be you... or your sister, or something!... better, your BF :3

[horizonbound]

I would love to hear the Ashokan Farewell.

[itstimeforYT]

PLEASE UPLOAD MORE VIOLIN MUSIC!!!

[88whatmeworry88]

I just totally love this, and that's just all there is to it!

*****

[veerlejemima101]

Lone me some of your epicness...please...I beg you... <333 ^_^ 

[bemycupoftea]

This just blows me away!

[OnlyReitasGirl]

OMG Kate.

This is stunning! U were so young when u recorded this! Why aren't u famous already? U must be on TV and idk, everywhere. U're an outstanding talent, seriously, since u can't play just ONE instrument, u can play several ones, and pretty good.

Plus, YOU CAN SING. Ur voice is so amazing, full of emotions, and yet so soft. (i'll never regret buying ur CD, can't wait for ur next one! :D)

♥

[MademoiselleAnna]

At 13?! O_o

[NekoPlusInu]

@MademoiselleAnna You say that like it's impossible. It's not rare to find people educated in music while younger then 13. I myself have known how to read music since age 6. xD Soooo maybe it just seems strange to people other then me.... ^^;;

[watchfulwarrior]

Awesome! At some point it would be very nice to actually watch you play this piece, This is a truly virtuostic piece of violin music.

[TheZhaelm]

Really beautiful :D

[crickettsinger]

Absolutely brilliant!!! 

[peaceablekingdom123]

HOLY COW!!!!!

[oOFunFunFunOo]

Listening again Ha ha!!!!!  :D

[3ToedJack]

What ever are you going to pull out that hat next? Nice work Kate, I so love hearing the violin being played.

[web2nr]

You're hogging all the talent, leave some for the rest of us!

[foodforunicorns]

Kate, if you perform The Flight of the Bumblebee and upload it on YouTube I will be your slave for a year.

[Boomchakalaka07]

@foodforunicorns OMG I AGREE WITH THIS 50000000000% lol!!!!

[zenzen126]

even when you were a child you were quite good, Kate. Please don't ever stop what you have started. :)

[Heart2Chain]

<3

~Aeris

[avencree]

I've never listened to Habanera all the way through before and I'm very glad that your rendition is the first one. Its so good and even if their is chaos in the piece, it's what makes it yours. Most people don't get this good until they are adults. You did this at 13! My mind has been blown :)

[VGfan]

Damn! I've been playing the violin since I'm 7 and I'm not that good :C

[GAMEMASTERMJ20]

♥when Im hearing the music hmmM I FeeL Something gooD♥ i cant expLaiN this is NIce and cool♥ advance merry x-mas and good new year♥ =)

[navyusmcair96]

I play the violin but not that good...

[navyusmcair96]

Damn!!

[bossbaitt]

Unreal!!!!! I think you are a faerie!

[NoctisFFvsXIII]

...You just killed me with your awesome T.T

[bowenstrife]

Better dust off my violin and get to practicing if I ever want to play like you Kate. :)

[rollenmuziek]

...I was not that good at violin when I was 13, and I don't think I'm that good now, either... XD

You sound fantastic, Kate-belle. ^-^

[Cccclassical]

Completely awesome in every way that counts,

[AmarantFFIX]

Amazing, awesome, God bless these fingers!! and your voice too!!

[DoubleXPanda]

i bet your as beautiful as your music

[SuperCG07]

Is there an instrument you CAN'T play?

Flawless

[yuyuchanx]

oh god kate you never cease to amaze me as i switch accounts i make sure to follow you haha. I've only played the violin for about two years for public school and i'm already 16 ; A ; i hope to play like this someday~

[Autumnmorenofigueroa]

>w< i have been an adoring Kate fan for over 2 years... and that skyrim reference just pushed mii ovur the edge~ xD lol

[fuzzytarantula]

Unbelievable!

[nicodemous52]

Where could one goe to get some of you music on CD? I found you a few months back, and you are...mind blowing to say the least...

[kizzy75]

No.. 13... Your kidding me right?

[crepsleygirl13]

now i wish i didn't give up violin when i was little TT^TT now my parents say its too expensive to get me a violin and lessons. this is absolutely amazing, Kate. Utter brillience with the flips and kudos to ur mom for giving accompaniment. -applause-
