To those of you commenting on the swaying / movement of Han Kim: you obviously are not musicians. Musicians are able to FEEL the music, not simply play what is written. Han Kim is turning the rhythms and dynamics on the page into true music. His physical movement is part of his expression of his ability to hear the true music and make it possible for the audience to hear the musicality that he hears. Next time you play a piece, try moving along with the music like he does, and you'll understand.

To those of you who are commenting on the playing quality: His tone is actually quite excellent. If you have enough experience on the clarinet, you know that this is an excellent performance. Yes, there are professionals who are better, but please do not make irrational comments if you don't know what you are talking about. Listen to players like Emma Johnson or Larry Combs and you will start to realize the true difference between a good and a bad tone. This player's tone is by NO means poor.

What a beautiful tone!! I believe he is 15 now, my age. God, I would kill for that talent.

@coloredpencils01 I completely agree! at first musicians are instructed not to move jb when you're a beginner it's better to sit still and focus on the embouchure and air support. but more experience players are encouraged to move freely with the music. who wants to watch somebody perform like a statue??? lol in my opinion all good professionals move with the music

WHY ARE YOU SOOOO GOOD?

@felix365clarinet mkay dude seriously, just stop worrying about it. If Han Kim wants to move then let him move. I'm cool with it. It's like dancing.

@coloredpencils01 thats not entirely true. moving around a lot can cause lots of tension in the body causing stress in muscles and causing injuries. i know this because i move like han kim and i got mild rsi which is now gone.
