Its amazing that children are far more open to foreign sounds - precisely because everything is foreign. Musical identify is forged very early in life, for most it begins around age three and parallels the development of language

No, in fact, it's one of the hardest things on marimba. There's pro who produce wrong notes all the time. Go check for this piece for exemple. Sietzen IS practicly the one without wrong note

This is my third listen. It only gets better with each play. Fantastic.

His amazing performance Ìs off the charts, and irreplaceble, and unrivaled

He weaves emotion and tribute from his percussion playing The comfort of his percussion playing is off the charts, and far superior splendor

As intense as any rock star guitarist ever. Amazing.

Magnificent and wonderfully executed, Lionel Hampton was the musician to bring this type instrument into center stage...and this young man has raised the bar...

Electric! And yet it is acoustic, and I mean that as absolutely brilliant! He is taking it to another level from the older greats of the past I feel !

I listen to this piece over & over again as I just love it & also vibraphone is my favorite instrument too. I would love to hear some more of this type of music. Thanks for the great music.

man... just the whole thing: what a greatly composed piece, WHAT a performance and what a lovely recording... that really earthy low note right at the end of the very first line, with a bit of reverb on it. just a delight altogether.

Wow! What a master musician, I'm just... flabberghasted, blown away!

Omg the synchrony with the tabla in the back is just so beautiful

That's one of the most amazing keyboard percussion performances I've ever seen,,,

Wow, superb! Done this also 4 mallets but in one marimba in my elementary and high school years, now 52 yo and never played since i got married but no regrets. Love it keep playing by heart boy

I’m always amazed at the precision these guy have, going so fast as well. I’ve been watching a lot of older videos, of older players on the xylophone. It’s thoroughly peeked my interest and appreciation for these wonderful musicians!

Just discovered this musical genius! Both the composition and the performance left me breathless. I am in a state of speechless awe.

waaaaaaa I am also a player of the same musical instruments in a Marching Band, I've also tried a small one that we really carry while marching and forming different formations even though it's very heavy. This just made my brain burst! Really Amazing! I am still waiting for the right time for me to have my own keyboard! and really practice every time! Thank for reminding me again!

Talent. Beautiful! Words can't describe it...

What...this guy has 2 brains, or what? One man, FOUR sticks, so precise and beautiful? AMAZING.😀

Incredible. Love the music!

That's beautiful and amazing all at once.

This instruments are really amazing

This is just marvelous! I would think that this is even harder than practicing piano because of the constant fluid motion between the larger keys on this instrument requiring the musician to move around the stage. The music itself is also tremendous with a mischievous tone!
