    The passion Elijah expresses while he plays shows his soul is truly one with the music. The girls are outstanding as well!! Prayers the doors of Juilliard are opened to every one of your kids. May God continue to richly bless all of you!! Would y'all adopt me & my almost 15 yr old 😂? You would barely know we were there... I'd cook, clean, and babysit just for music lessons! Lol

    As a guitarist these videos blow my mind 🤯 we cheat and use fretts but I’ve played frettless instruments before and the precision needed to be right on a note is insane and that’s before you throw in the challenge of vibrato. These kids may all not get in but they are incredible musicians already ! I hope that doesn’t stop them

  • @musicmadness8330
    @musicmadness8330 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I think the reason Elijah was not accepted was because
    1. For cellists 15 and above, it is quite difficult to get accepted (usually only 2-3 students get accepted), making it quite competitive
    2. It’s not a lack of practicing, it’s more of not playing the right pieces. Saint Saens 1 mov is played by very young children so he probably should have played much much more difficult pieces such as Dvorak, Shostakovich, Schumann. You get the idea.

She has also said that they are not affluent wealthy by any means and they absolutely live by faith 😊 they do grafic design work..they busk with their music have this TH-cam channel and several of the children are on scholarship!!

    I love classical music. That love started in 6th grade when I first started playing in the school band. I played all the way through freshman year in college then stopped after that but if ever I need to just relax especially on a rainy day… classical is my go-to. 😌

  • @pamthompson2978

    When I was in college, I was majoring in vocal music performance, minoring in music literature. At my senior year “jury”, which is basically a private recital in front of the Dean of music, all of the vocal music teachers and a “surprise guest” who would all “grade” our jury performance. After all the juries were finished, our vocal teacher meets w/the students, discussing pro’s/con’s of their jury’s. This time, she had the “special guest” with her. This guest was a vocal “scout” for Juliard, and was a dear friend of our teacher! He had 4 scholarships to give to 4 of the students. I was one of the students!
    My dream had always been to go there. However, at the time (later 1980’s), there was no housing available to any student. Apartments around the area where Juliard was, was astronomical!! My parents (dad-pastor, mom-sales),barely was able to make ends meet as they raised 4 kids +them. We tried many “avenues” to try to get it so I could go. Everyone of these avenues fell through.
    I had to refuse the scholarship to my dream!

      Not everyone has the money to live the way they are but they’re investing in their children and they are such a sweet family. It’s upsetting to see how people diss them for it. It comes from jealousy and insecurity. Yet some are just naturally curious, but why should she divulge their personal information to us online. Would you have the nerve to ask anyone else to their face where they’re getting their money?! Or tell them how YOU think they should be living? Doubt it. Why don’t people get that upset with television/movie stars and sports players who make inordinate amounts of money and blow it on zillion dollar homes and cars and fashion and plastic surgery, and often times drugs, etc. Yet here is a family who is making their way to be able to invest in their children on every level, they don’t over spoil them with stuff, they’re well educated in the Word of God and in schooling. Their kids are readers! They’re kind, loving and helpful. They are bringing up their children in the way they should go… so they’re going to be assets to society instead of a burden. It’s hard enough to give that many kids everything they need as it is (love time and attention, physical needs etc but I don’t mean stuff) yet they’re doing it and much more. I just saw them three days ago for the first time and fell in love with the whole family. I’m watching all their videos! And I even live a little vicariously thru her cuz it’s a lifestyle I dreamed of having (not so much the musical end of it or the city living but having lots of kids and homeschooling and having a trailer to travel in and living on a farm, and having an invested loving, kind husband who truly loved the Lord first and foremost) but it didn’t work out for me that way. So I really enjoy their videos and how nice it is that we can share in people’s lives in a way we couldn’t otherwise if not for modern technology. And how inspiring to other young families who may not dare to dream that maybe they too could live the life of their dreams or even a scaled down version - but it’s all good.
      I hope their social media grows and grows to help them with all these expenses.
      💟✝️💟

    I was cleaning and didn’t hear the names of who made it through but ran over curious to hear them play. As soon as I watched it I knew he passed. He had his whole body into it. They were all great though. The girls are still young and that can make a difference between playing well and being able to show passion. We have 8 kids and while they all play instruments, it isn’t their passion except the oldest that plays drums. The others play piano and trumpet. I played flute but didn’t enjoy it. Wish I would have done cello. No matter what, I think it is great for children to learn to play an instrument, even if it is just for fun while they are young.
