Young musician
Sungha Jung
Lovely recent Youtube offering by 12-year-old Korean Sungha Jung, unschooled guitar wunderkind. How I would love to meet this kid, say a word of thanks, and ask for his autograph! This strange exposure to all the web-wide world of one gifted young person’s pure devotion to discovery of music in the most common, readily shared-in fashion of our time really is something to be glad in, I think. He’s not only gifted, he seems to have become, whether he knows it or not, sort of a gift.
Thanks so much for this. Just spent a happy hour listening to him play. You know, the kid’s got charisma in addition to sheer talent. Rather humbling it all is. Thanks again…
Peace out.

Delighted. : )
Charisma, yes. Humbling, yes.
