Baby videos are usually adorable and steal the hearts of those who watch them. If we add something impressive to that, surely the video becomes something that draws a smile on our face.
That's why the fantastic video of a mezzo-soprano holding the baby of a violist companion during a recitalIt has gone viral and has impressed us.
Marina Thibeault is a violist who recently participated in the Canadian Music & Beyond festival. While she played for the public, her baby Lucien was behind the scenes taking a nap, until she woke up just before she returned to the stage to interpret a last piece with the mezzo-soprano Wallis Giunta and the pianist Frederic Lacroix.
They decided then, that they would invite little Lucien to the stage and Wallis would hold him during his performance, while his mother played the viola again. Interestingly, the last piece they would perform was about 'Wiegenlied Geistliches'by Johannes Brahms, which is a lullaby.
Before beginning the interpretation, Wallis explained to the public what happened and told them that if things didn't work or Lucien wasn't comfortable, they would start over and as a joke he said he would play behind the scenes again.
As her mother was on the other side, Wallis decided to turn Lucien so he could see her while he was playing, and from the expression on his face, we could tell that he is his biggest fan and that he is used to seeing her and hearing her play, as she mentioned in one of the comments.
Between the magnificent interpretation of Wallis, the musical talent of Marina and Frederic, and the adorable Lucien, we are not surprised that this video has received so many positive comments, noting that it was a wonderful show.
