She's fantastic. Anybody who whines "my hands are too small to play
guitar" needs to be shown this.

And maybe if Esteban sees this he'll get real and hang it up.

I saw this last year. As impressive as it is it makes me sad. The look on
her face is like "I wish I could be home playing with a doll". Just
something about it.

Maybe it's the impression we Americans have of the indentured Asian &
Russian prodigies, enslaved by harsh dominating instructors, greedy
parents and politically motivated cultural deacons, their childhoods
robbed for the glory of Mother Country on the world stage. I dunno,
maybe I watch 20-20 too much...

She couldn't play like that unless she loved it. This ain't
gymnastics. No amount of intimidation and finger-smacking with rulers
can make a person play like that if they don't have "it". That look on
her face is The Muse. If it wasn't there, she WOULD be at home playing
with dolls....just another "useless" girl in a nation that would as
soon have her dead. She's got a gift.

She IS a gift.

Wow, I would guess it would take at least 10 years of solid practice to play
like that, but she can't be more than 15, so maybe you're right!

One thing that I've noticed that was pretty interesting was that while I was
blown away by the video, some people weren't as much so. Especially people
who's never played guitar or any instruments even, will watch this video and
wouldn't think anything so special about it.

That's surprising. I've noticed the opposite. It's so easy to impress
non-players with the dumbest power chord. If those guys saw this, they
should be blown away, but that makes too much sense, so it probably doesn't
work that way!!

yep...

That goes for anything... I wouldn't know a GrandMaster Chess game if I saw
one.... the difference is, I don't comment about Chess :)

This raises an interesting question. Who do you *really* play for, the
audience, those you consider your musical peers, or yourself? I don't think
there are right and wrong answers to this, but I think musos can be more
comfortable with themselves if they know the answer as it applies to them.
