This is what todays youth in America should be striving for GREATNESS!!! and the media should applaud and laud this talented young man as an example of practice, talent, dedication.....Let this be and example and lesson to todays lost youth.
Media too busy promoting chicks with ..cks
Our youth is no longer lost. The future is brought ASMR harmonious 😊
Try to speak only for yourself.
What a fantastic and wonderful talent , is this inspiring young musician. I love classical music. Kayden Kelly is a gifted musician. God bless you.
** today's
(Which is among other terrible grammatical choices in your comment.)
Speaking of lessons..
It would be great if you could keep your boomer mindset to yourself. You clearly don't understand what's going on outside of your bubble. Does it not take practice, dedication and, of course, the immeasurable "talent" attribute, to become expert in any field, including athletics, entertainment, business, etc.?
(Hint: It does.)
Other viewers of this video, don't be afraid to hit the "dislike" button for comments that are nonsensical or propagandist, like the parent comment from @LucianSpelta99.
I love rap, R&B, country music, and I absolutely adore classical!!!! Thank you Kayden Kelly for representing us in another genre of music. You're such a gift!
YES 😊
I love those genres as well & I love your comment!!!!❤🙌🏽👏🏽🙏🏽
I'm right there with you. I also love all those genres. Ah to be a part of a musically eclectic community. This music elevates and touches in such a deep way. And this young man is so talented.

My toddler is on the spectrum, and sat still for this entire performance ❤ Got a new subscriber.
Go head on Mr. Kaylen!!! Fellow musician and graduate in flute performance!!! You are a true gift to today’s musical era!!!!
No sheet music 🎼 at all. I don’t think we can even describe the pride we feel seeing children of color free to express their excellence. Our tears of joy feel hundreds of years deep. Thank you Kayden!
@@dmilleniumdiva YES
This young man is not only beautiful to look at, but his music takes you away from this world, magnificent, exquisite.
I am so glad I found this. Obviously this incredible young man could have been anything he chose to be. He chose the piano, and we should all be grateful for that. What an amazing gift he has.
Beautiful comment
Tell me how some 🥷🏾 saying Gucci gang 100 times gets more views and fans then this talented man??? Talent is far too unnoticed in this world, especially the American and mainstream society
@@AnonymousTaco3472
America 🇺🇸 is a DIVERSE CHEMISTRY of Multiple Cultures & Musical Genres & during America’s inception Classical & Native American Music was the status quo!
BUT as soon as the AFRICANS (who arrived against their WILLS) were taught Classical Music (which is a European creation, so far as we know) THEY CREATED THE ONLY TRUE AMERICAN 🇺🇸 MUSIC GENRE & birthed the……..
Blues, Jazz, Country, Gospel, Soul, R&B, Funk, Rock, Pop, Disco, Etc. Up to the MOST CURRENT POPULAR AMERICAN 🇺🇸 MUSIC GENRE IN 2024…..Hip-Hop!!! So, believe Me……WE NOTICE!!! Salute 🫡
This young pianist is going to go very far. I'm glad to come across this video and will not forget the name, 'Kayden Kelly!' Fantastic! Bravo!
Kamala harris affect. Specially if he identifys as a woman.
Only God can give someone a great talent like this. BRAVO!!!! 🧡🧡👋👋👋
A Dios sea la Gloria... 🙌
LOL
😭Beautiful touchingly moving. Cant stop crying. So Proud of how young people are raising the game and changing the world.
Still 15years old. I hope you lead your generation 🎉
All young people, given the opportunity, can achieve greatness, in all spectrum of the rainbow 🌈 🙏🏻✨✨✨🤗🤗🤗💐
The delicacy in his finger weight and the perfect execution of the whole piece.. Just incredible. Well done and bravo. :)
Genius!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm always elated to watch pianists of colour perform. A sign that the large concert halls of the world are beginning to make room for us. Thanks for sharing this with us. I'm grateful to the organizers also. You have a new subscriber. 👏👏👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏
It is indeed important to involve non-white population into the cherished riches of classical music. Fortunately, the number of young people coming to understand and fall in love with it, is growing. I may be wrong to think that currently it is Asian kids who seem to be conquering the highest levels of performance. Thanks to YT, I have been able to discover more youngsters of color dedicating their great talents to classical music. But what is really important to me is that when I listen to excellent performances, my mind is no longer on the performer's origins or race. It is music, and only music. Kayden Kelly is a wonderful musician. Apart from his playing, he impresses me with his very elegant presence: beautiful posture, no theatricals, no posing. He is creating music. I have very much enjoyed this concert. Kayden has already gained a lot of experience (from the Google information). I wish him lots and lots of well-deserved success!
@MishaSkripach you have a right to your opinion, but I meant no harm as I am of the same race. There's no way I'd not have noticed his music and then make a comment thanking Kayden for sharing his performance with us here and thanking the organizers too!
@MishaSkripach like I said, you have a right to your opinion or any other opinion you might have about my comment. I have clarified the fact that I meant no harm and I believe that sets the record straight.
@@MishaSkripach I sort of agree with you. I am finding that when the focus is on the colour or sexual orientation, we somehow shift from the character and true talents of the person in question. Experience shows that people do tend to point out those things. That of course starts the characterization of an individual on a wrong footing. This habit is probably especially obvious among Jewish and black people. The reason may be similar backgrounds and today's treatment of both groups. ( I think it is much better for black people who have made many highly important names for themselves in more than one area. Not so for Jews...). Is it an instinctual response to a possible threat? There is something noticeable even in the way the word "black" is replaced by "of color." I believe firmly in that one group of people is not superior to another; we have good people in each, and each group has too many bad ones to lament. I tend to agree with you on that other issue you brought up: being careful expressing our objective, unbiased critique of something not quite perfect, if the doer is of a different race. There are some boundaries which some people take as unethical, and, unfortunately, some will take them as racial. Back to the young pianist. You must be a professional: I did not hear those imperfections. I did enjoy the performance.
Pianists of "color?" Huh? That's a term white people made up. We're not people of color. No one defines us but us. If African Americans are people of color then so are white people because the last time I checked, white is a color. Check your crayon box.
I want to comment on the first piece and I will later when I have time to process it all. I am at a loss for words at the moment. Insanely amazing the maturity level that he breathes through his phrasing and technique. Completely stunning. What a blessing and a gift from God.
So proud to see a young man whose peers are out playing sports or video games and flexing with friends……meanwhile this fell is bringing music to the world. An endeavor of his own, so great, yet he wants to share it with us. It’s beautiful. It’s just lovely and how proud his parents must be
Nothing wrong with playing sports though
Can’t one do both??
With all the terrible things happening in this world 🌎 how nice to hear such beautiful music from a very talented young artist.
So young so beautiful and so talented, AMAZING performance, BRAVO!!!
Bless u young man ! Continue sharing your gift ! It lightens allllllllllll who hear it ! Thank UUUU!
Great parenting can take a child far. Seeing a you g man with this much talent is fascinating. Great job Kayden and family👏🏼 I hope you will inspire children and teens around the world 🌟
How beautiful so talented he is awesome are young people should be respected and supported ❤️ 😊
Great future for this young man.❤
Well done!!!!!! Also I can tell A PROUD MOTHER when I see one, her smile watching you is pleasant and radiant much like your performance!! Wishing you all the best young man, you are incredibly talented.
Is that his mom sitting with the brown purse in her lap?
Thank you for your beautiful performance and selection of composers/pieces, Kayden. My Dad, who recently passed away at 91 years of age, loved to pick out new, young talented pianists. He encouraged my love of classical music. He would have definitely chosen you!
So sorry for your loss ♥️🇨🇦
@@jeanwillis7774 Thank you for your condolences, Jean...music is helping with grief and healing.
We'll see those beautiful curls on the great stages of the world! Monstrous playing!!!!
Wow! This was stellar! I intended to stay only 5 minutes but ended up engrossed in the entire performance. The Chopin and the Rachmaninoff - sublime! For those of us who are pianists or even former pianists who reached a certain skill level, we know world-class talent when we hear it. It has a certain veneer. The tell-tale signs: extreme dexterity in the playing, strong rhythmic coherence, and highly cohesive phrasing. All of which were on full display here. Kayden fearlessly raced toward certain passages full of pitfalls, emerging relatively unscathed. But, he also took other passages at a more moderate pace. Loved how he paced the Rachmaninoff. When left me perplexed is how he was able to provide what we all come to expect from these pieces, yet at the same time put forth renditions that felt wholly unexpected. It was exhilarating. What a thrill. Bravo!
Brilliant young Maestro. He is superb, flawless and has style and personality, not to mention composure beyond his years.
He belongs on that stage and I hope he inspires other young people of color to go forward with their dreams as classical musicians, whether it is piano, conducting, composing, or singing. Kayden Kelly will become as famous as Lang Lang, Andre Watts or Van Cliburn. All the best for a bright and long career!!
Thank you to Kayden and his family for supporting his stellar talent, and dedication. Absolutely triumphant!🎉❤Love, Love, Love🎉❤
Great looks, great piano playing, quirky when saluting and so full of his youth, this young man should go far.
And such a stage name!! Kayden Kelly. I'll remember the day I met Kayden Kelly 😀
God bless them fingers forever and always. its so refreshing 2 see a person of color being simply amazing
Explore your world more we are everywhere!
Woooooow! Great job Kayden! I’m standing and clapping in my kitchen for you! Please keep going!
Thank you very much Kayden.
I am not qualified to critique your performance.
I just enjoy the gift you have given me.
I am transported to another level of consciousness.
Thank you!
Absolutely lovely!
So beautiful! I am very happy and hopeful for watching you tonight, young man! Love from Brazil
That's what up; He is touching your heart in Brazil! Mind Blowing.
Mi g hty WEAK clapping Applause for this INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE.
It is an intimate gathering. A thunderous applause would be 🤔
well deserving though inappropriate 🎉📣
Not that kinda concert 😅
@@soulchorea true! Es la verdad! Más intimo!
This is a truly awesome young man! I am truly proud of him! Just simply.....ADMIRABLE!!!!!
I'm also a pianist. What a great performance of some of my favorite composers! Bravo Kayden!
Absolutely love your expression - beautiful performance..........
Very enjoyable Kayden ❤
I see him first time.
Very emotional, very nice visual,
I can’t help feeling new generation and beautiful world.
I strongly think him to be famous musician!!
Mendelssohn in all of his compositions has many layers and voice going on at any given second.
I was impressed with how you emphasized the important and even secondary voices.
I was very impressed.
This young man going places!
Breathtakingly percussive: he is one with the piano!
Thank you Lord for this beautiful teenager and his beautiful natural hair, love for music and huge talent! He's brought a fresh feeling to our old white European classical haha. I am looking forward to hearing more of his performances. My son is the same age.
simply enjoyable, it is like no one is in the room...and your doing what you love to do most - thank you sharing your talent with us
My god, what a treat it was to listen to your marvelous renderings of these varied pieces. You are skilled and talented with a wonderful presence. Thank you so much for sharing it all with us.
I think the casual listener might not realize how much life he is breathing into these pieces. amazing talent but also a mix master.
My hairs raised and tears came to my eyes seeing this wonderful person play the rendition of all the pieces were astounding especially for the Rondo capriccioso. In relation to the prelude in gminor ,at first I thought the piece was rushed and the left hand wasn't very strong and accented,but I was thinking of the piece in the mechanical and typical way it's usually played.However, he created a new and refreshing rendition it was completely different and unexpected and works so well. He has a bright future ahead of him.
Damn son, that was a bangin' set. Your mom and family had the best smiles watching you perform.
Exceptionally stirring and evocative musicality from one so young! Pay no attention to the self-styled technical experts. You are becoming quite an artist, and a force of nature! I look forward to following your career for a long time. PS Your hair looks great, just as it is! ;-)
Voici un pianiste exceptionnel. Sa virtuosité, sa musicalité, sa mémoire infaillible lui promettent une rapide reconnaissance internationale. Merci Kayden pour ce magnifique moment musical.
OMG Kayden! Way to go. Your playing is so impactful and makes a big difference in lives. I loved listening to your perform. Keep up the wonderful work and keep on inspiring! You are the beauty that the world needs. Thanks for being here!
Absolutely Amazing
Oh my land. By memory! So young! What an amazing blessing to hear this talented youn man!
When there are special moments in life, this is one of them. Keep on doing what you love Kayden. You are making us smile with the love you are spreading through your music.
The word virtuoso when applied to a youth usually makes me flee to safer pianists, but I'll give his due to Kayden Kelly. He captivated me from the first few bars. So much sensitivity I stopped and let myself be immersed in the music.
Exceptional! This Chopin Scherzo!
Simple inspiring to watch and listen to the endless possibilities of the youth carrying on with seeds of music...Thank you all involved.
Bravo to Kayden! Hope your love and passion for music will carry you through the all the bumps and challenges in your artistic journey. You have a new fan in me! So exciting to see a new young talent from the USA!!!
❤ love love love bravo
Wonderful to hear!… so glad I found this! It’s a pleasure to have been able to follow him from his very young years here in Santa Fe and watch him grow thus far. He seems so much more patient with his expression in this performance - no rush to get all the notes out … . I look forward to hearing more from and about him in the future….❤
Thank you for your wonderful playing. It made my day! ❤❤❤
Bravo! Excellent performance. This young man has a glorious future. Can't wait to hear more!
He displayed such passion in his performance. Talent and passion make greatness! His future is bright. May the lucky star shines upon him all the way.
He's fantastic, every nuance captured beautifully. I really enjoyed this.
Bravo!!!!!!!!!!❤
Astounding!
Hoy escuché por primera vez a este joven pianista, que me hizo buscar otras perfomances previas y fue muy emocionante verlo desde niño jugar, divertirse, reir y lograr la emoción del auditorio. Temperamento, técnica, profundidad, sonido poderoso, sin agresividad, lineas melódicas logradas, brillo preciso en compases que requieren virtuosismo, en fin una verdadera promesa. Los mejores deseos en tu carrera muchacho!!!
Kayden, God has graced your life with such a beautiful gift.... Thank you for sharing
I am so happy to have encountered such a great musician and artist. May he continue to inspire lost souls and share his passion and art form with the world.
This is incredible playing. He brilliantly conveys the emotions of the song through how he plays those notes and those pedals.
Thank you for this incredible performance. I wish you well in all your endeavours through your musical and personal life. You will bring a lot of joy in many lives. Be aware, we can never be perfect in every aspect of life and don't fail because of that.
Nicely done, Kayden!
Kayden, your performance is mesmerizing! Brining out Chopin is truly bringing out your passion and graceful talent! Thank you 🙏
A beautiful and brilliant performance by a beautiful and brilliant young man 💖
Beautiful playing, Kayden! Everything so perfectly articulated, measured and musicianly! God bless you!
Wonderful. So inspiring. Thank you for including the piece by Samuel Coleridge Taylor 😊❤❤❤
Kayden!!!!!!!! I did not realize this is your own channel. I subscribed and look forward to hearing more from you. You are an enigma to watch. Thank you
Belíssimo rapaz e sem palavras diante de tamanha performance 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
You have won my heart and so, may the joys of artistic satisfaction continually reward you with countless successes! This was a glorious recital! Bless you, Kayden!
Absolutely amazing!!!
Sideshow Bob is amazing!
Such a talented young beutiful Kayden . GOD bless you
A truly remarkable young man. What a breathtaking performance. I'm anxious to find out more about him. I could listen to/watch him perform all day long.
Tremendous performance, young man! You have incredible talent and are obviously hardworking and dedicated.
His hair bounced so playfully during his marvelous performance, and made it that much more enjoyable haha.
An awesome talent…. Bravo!
Hayden, well done my fellow Man of African Heritage. A credit to our ancestors and to excellence. I hope we can converse. Bravisomo 🎉😊
Wow, the way the fingers move over those keyboards.
Fantastic talent
My god, what a beautiful young man and unbelievably talented. His concentration is absolutely amazing. 😮
He is amazing and his level of interpretation of the music is wonderful.
Dear Lord, thank you for this young man and his talent and his courage. His control of the dynamics within this piece is outstanding. I am so proud of this musician as though he were the son I did not have. He is special, he is humble and he is love. No app. can stand against the knowledge and talent of this young man's mind and fingers, respectively. And, respectfully, I say music and chord apps be damned; musician can do what these apps can do, but the apps cannot do what musicians do--explore, make mistakes, and recognize perfection. I hear you LucianSpelta, I hear you.
Absolutely Wonderful! I am so proud to see you do this, and I don't know you. But as a fellow musician I feel a kinship! Your touch is incredible! You're play is mature now, and you have much time to grow! God has Blessed you! Keep going no matter what happens. Don't ever stop. This is your gift to the world and you will be rewarded greatly for the time and effort you put into your work.
Beautiful Afro.
Excellent Technique.
Stellar Performance.
... BRAVO.
Refreshing to enjoy your talent, youthful and filled with expression.
Wow! Kayden Kelly,you’re extraordinary and a natural virtuosi…Scintillating light touches and commanding presence ,great confidence and a wonderful personality ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️sending love from Ontario 🇨🇦
Beautiful!!!!!❤🎉 This gives me hope for the world, that it can be a good place for all people.
that is why schools or after school programs are important, I grew up in the hood was taken to a class trip to see world war planes, i fell in love with the entire thing building of the planes and the mechanics of it, I now work on planes, love it=
Beautiful in every way!
Breathtakingly beautiful Kaden 🥀❤️
