The family of this talented kids. I remember when they play outside their home over the lockdown all street was involved. The mum give up the academic job to look after the children and the father to provide for family

Schindler’s list is a film I’ve only ever watched once. The film’s subject itself, the music, the actors and actresses in it. It’s a masterpiece once again by Spielberg and a masterpiece once again by my favourite composer John Williams.

It's thrilling to watch your development over the years. Keep up the joy and hard work and thanks for choosing this classic piece which adapts itself so well to the violin. I follow your family of great musicians and delight when I can share your amazing family and parents with others here in the United States. Continue to reach deep and allow those tones of purity to evolve on every note and phrase. With profound thanks, Anthony (New Haven, Connecticut)

Terrific. I wish we saw more of Braimah K-M.

I sometimes feel that Briamah is overshadowed by his brother Sheku but he is an outstanding musician in his own right. Fantastically well played. 👍🏻

Une musique forte en émotion avec une excellente prestation du soliste. Notez au passage le beau dialogue entre le cor anglais et le violon.

One's heart would have to be made of stone for it not to be reached by this piece of music. To Lipka Solodukah.
