If one should think about it, classical music is really what sets the mode in many of the most brilliant movies ever made. A movie without a sound of music would be strange. Well just a thought. lol

Violin Solo by Multi-Talented 4 Years Old Kid
Dhanat Plewtianyingthawee

YouTube link

Dhanat Plewtianyingthawee is the world's amazing young artist who ever had his first solo art exhibition in Bangkok in April 2006 at the age of 3 and a half years old. At present, he paints over two thousand remarkable big and small abstracts and sold worldwide.

His talent has been exposed on many local and international TV programs, newspapers, magazines, radio, and international websites. You can find all the websites where his works are listed at www.squidoo.com/dhanat

Some of his paintings have been assembled, edited as a movie, and posted on this YouTube too.

He does not only good in painting but another kind of ART skill that is MUSIC is also considered very good. His unusual music hearing ability was recognized when he was only one year and ten months.

He started his first violin lesson when he was only three and a half years old. The following video shows his violin solo in the Grand Auditorium of Thailand Cultural Center when he was 4 years and 4 months old. Four songs were played with confidence.
