Violin Virtuoso Pei Wen Liao

This talented 14-year-old responded to a challenge by Ray Cavicchio, the accompanist, to learn and perform two pieces, Meditation (Massennet) and Czardas (Monti) with barely a few day's notice and virtually no rehearsal time. The instrument that looks like an accordion but sounds like an orchestra is Ray's invention.

something may be very wrong here; notice that the sound begins BEFORE her bow starts moving. It's possible though that the sound and video are slightly out of synch..?

YES. The video was just fine for almost a year and then this problem emerged, the same problem that is plaguing thousands of YouTube videos. The company remains silent about the problem! I will have to repost the video anew. It would be a shame to lose all of these nice compliments so I might just keep both videos going, but tag this faulty version and direct everyone to the repaired version. In a few days I hope to have this reposted and I do hope you will check out and enjoy the fixed video.

Pei-Wen performed in Japan June 9 and 10 with the New York Asian Symphony Orchestra. She is now touring Taiwan, the country of her birth. Thank you for your compliment.

@artreritvioli Maybe that's why they call it "Meditation" (:

[wilhelminas]

I agree. I'm sick of show parents pushing their 8 year olds to play Bruch badly, just so they can upload it on youtube with the title 'child prodigy'. This girl I could listen to all day.
