His hands look a lot like Kaki King's hands... that's because they are!
Some trivia: When Evan Taylor's hands were on camera, they were actually Kaki King's hands. Kaki King performed this song and helped compose it as well. She's so talented! (;
@soki324 She only played for this, "Bari Improv," and "Ritual Dance" (the part where Robin Williams gives the kid the guitar pick and people start crowding) in the movie. The kid was just air-guitaring. Psh. :p Hey! Great taste in music, by the way. Since you listen to Kaki King. ;D
I love this song!!!!!!!!!! And this part of the movie!!!!!!!!!! And the whole movie!!!!!!!!!!! And Freddie Highmore and Robin Williams (although Wizard pissed me off)!!!!!! XD
@42ML51 First of all, this is a movie. Nobody expects it to be accurate to real life. Second, Mozart at an early age could play anything he wanted on a piano, from the sound of love to a thunderstorm. In any case, your opinion is duly noted.
KaKi King is a female artist who plays this!! She is beyond amazing!! Look up more of her music I LOVE her song first brain and second brain. Everyone should see her LIVE atleast once I DID and it blew my mind

The movie is wonderful. Kaki King is original and her genuis abounds. Yes, she has had influences, as every musician has throughout history, but it is her original music and it is distinctively hers. Freddie did a great acting job for a young man.
If you find the right tuning, start tapping and find a cover online, copy them and you can make your own sort of thing, its so fun, i spent ages messin around. but now its back to normal tuning, and i cant be botherd to tune back XD
@Daruni69 Agreed 100%. I just rented this 3 weeks ago. I STILL haven't brought it back! Fees up the yinyang. Robin Williams did great. He really knew his character's background and his less than noble but semi-caring lines were recited effortlessly.
@Daruni69 *shrug it was a good movie but that guitar is already tuned to a chord, Freddie Highmoore could've hit it just about anywhere and it would've sounded good.
dnt read this(cuz it really wrks). u will gt kissd on the nearest frieday by the love of ur life. 2mara wll b the bst day of ur life hwever if you dnt post ths comment 2 at least 3 vids u will die withn 2 days nw uv startd readn this dnt stp this is so scary snd ths ovr 2 5 vids in 143 mins when ur done press f6 nd ur crush's name wll appear on the screen n big letters ths is so scary cuz it actully wrks ths really wrks
Robin Williams is a brilliant actor and he is most noted for his DIVERSE acting!! so duh! this was a great opportunity for him to come out as a villain and i think he did a great job too!! no body could've done this better!!
There's a guy at my school, who can play the quitar like this. As a freshmen in high school, he's already got a recording contract in the US and Japan. Please check him out. His name is Ben Lapps. You can find his CD, The New Color, on iTunes.
