More than likely, his parents showed him how to press buttons, much like pigeons can be trained to peck at levers for food. You can also tell that he wanted to leave the piano, but his mother kept forcing him to go on. Also, if you watch closely, near 5:30, he presses down on a key and starts vibrating his finger back and forth on the same key. Like... wtp. The piano isn't a violin. >_>"
Like I said, beginner level (misspelled beginner last time). You cant compare him to a trained pigeon though. It takes more than just showing how to push buttons to play a music piece. Yes I saw where he wanted to stop and him mom wanted him to continue, that part was kind of BS. I also saw the part where he was moving his finger back and forth on the same key, but I think it was more that he was bored and wanted to be done than him thinking it was a violin. You are trying to show that this kid is being exploited by his family in some way, but I am not certain that is the case. I think they are just proud and want the rest of the world to see his gift and see that he is more than just that gift as well.
