Just in case no one mentioned it to you guys yet. Kevin has already graduated pre-Med from Yale. Oh, BTW, he speaks fluent Mandarin Chinese. There are vids on UA-cam of when PTX visited China and he stunned a talk show audience by speaking to them in fluent Madarin.
Curtis Williams he's just amazing! He speaks like 5 languages and is fluent in both Chinese and Spanish. I don't know how he does it and still stays so humble.
Fucking blown away. Yep, that's about all anyone can say about Kevin. This guy is INSANELY talented. Did it all live, in real time, and planned all that out in his head, so an amazing arranger. And his voice is wonderful in that. (Obviously he always had a great voice, the rest of the group just probably taught some technique, and gave him the support and confidence to USE it more.)
I read it was just the opposite (I may have mis-read it). When PTX hired him, they knew he had perfect pitch. He even gave some of PTX members some lessons. This blew me away (and I'm 71).
I've Watched so many reactions to this video and They all said he's mind blowing. Just seeing the shocking look on their faces is priceless, lol I love this. thanks guys for reacting
Just recommending his own channel too, Renegade, Stay with Me... someone once said he uses his instruments like a voice, and his voice like an instrument.
SO GLAD YOU WATCHED THIS !!!! 😁😁😁 Definitely one of the best things I have watched in my life ever! He's a BOSS!! Yes, please do check all the others' solo projects as well. Quarter past four is probably my fav Avi's track, All Night by Kirstie.. Superfruit have so many covers and originals now. I really want you guys to watch their beyonce medley, anti medley, empire medley and evolution of lady gaga.. and hip hop goes broadway 1 & 2.. Apart from their Future Friends EP all MVs ofcourse. Looking forward to it all :D
Kevin is the most unbelievable human being on earth! He actually plays the cello, the piano and the saxophone! He's simply amazing. Maybe you could react to Kirstin's stuff as well! She has a few videos out. Personally, my favorite is "Naked", it's an amazing song! Much love from Portugal :)
Since you've been gone, Kevin has released another KOver-- Harry Styles, Sign of the Times! It's AMAZING, you should check it out when Marco is feeling better!
Love your reactions guys! When you took that first initial step into the world of Pentatonix, did you ever imagine the depths of talent you were diving into? Love watching you discover these amazing individuals in both collaborative as well as their solo endeavors
Kevin has the highest head voice/falsetto note, but Mitch can reach the whistle register. Some don't count the whistle register as part of a vocal range however, so that would make Kevin beat out Mitch!
Absolutely loved your reactions. I have watched this many times and I love it. To watch you two be as blown away as I was delights me. I will be back. Hugs :-) BKK
He has been this talented all along but overlooked sometimes. For example back on September 16, 2012 he started with amazing vocals, followed by Mitch signing "Nature Boy" and then all of PTX in an original "Baddest Girl". This is a live video from Boston. Here is the link. ua-cam.com/video/cWhcNmMj_wg/v-deo.html Such a treat. Enjoy! :-) BKK
Oh my god, I am so late into the game, but I just wanted to tell you that you guys are the best reaction I've seen of that video... I was speechless myself... I'm going through your older Pentatonix stuff and I love it so far :)
you should totally react to his other stuff if you havent seen it already. Renegade is an original of his and an excellent showcase of his beatboxing and cello playing together.
He can't sing bass notes. I was going to say he can't play baseball, but who knows? He probably can. So glad you appreciate what Kevin did here. It took me several views to figure it all out--especially when he's sampling his own beatboxing.
Kevin plays the Chelo, saxophones and is a great beatboxer and arranger. I would recommend you reacting to more Kevin's stuff you would enjoy them. The stay with me video on his channel is so good.All of our pentatonix members are so gifted Avi plays the guitar along with singing. Mitch and Scott both play the piano they are all so talented.
zbea mu Kevin also plays the piano! I think that Kirstie is the only one who doesn’t play an instrument. We haven’t seen her play anything, but piano seems to be the likely thing... Matt Sallee (their new Bassist) plays drums and piano.
FYI. (If I’ve already told you, I’m sorry...) on 10/12/17, Pentatonix announced their new bass. His name is Matt Sallee. He’s a recent graduate of the Berklee School of Music in Boston...
Unless I missed it and you already did it, you GOTTA do Sign of the times, guys. It's even better than this. One man orchestra there...BTW, love your reactions, especially the facial expressions!!!
This was an outstanding cover but Kevin just released another, from the same studio. It is a Cover of Harry Styles "Sign of the Times" that is absolutely amazing. I hope you react to it soon.
You are only as talented as you limit yourself to be. This my friend is not having no ceiling to limit yourself. My man also graduated from Harvard University. Oh yes, he is also fluent in Chinese.
Great reaction! Yes. Kevin is an incredible musician, with perfect pitch, and he's using it all here - except his sax skills! Here's another video that shows his amazing voice - Link: ua-cam.com/video/_nnj2yM7Tb4/v-deo.html
He's got that voice, and he's the worst singer in Pentatonix!!! He's played at Carnegie Hall (the cello) twice, is fluent in 5 languages, and was pre-med before he joined Pentatonix!! He's definitely the smartest guy in the group!! And they found him through his UA-cam videos of him playing the cello and beatboxing!!
If You find KO impressive, then you should know he was a medical student at a prestigious university aaaaand speaks fluent Chinese!! There isn’t anything he can’t do!!
I don't get how he's human. HE'S AMAZING!
He is talented on soooo many levels!
KO, making more people realize they don't know anything about talent, until you see this. Always impressed!!
Just in case no one mentioned it to you guys yet. Kevin has already graduated pre-Med from Yale. Oh, BTW, he speaks fluent Mandarin Chinese. There are vids on UA-cam of when PTX visited China and he stunned a talk show audience by speaking to them in fluent Madarin.

WOW... I love it!
I met him last night and he is just the nicest person I have ever met in my life!
He also assisted the American ambassador in China in Diplomacy while he lived there.
Plays the piano and sax, and of course the cello/guitar😄 a Looper and.sample board...
Kevin is my role model, like I aspire to have such a work ethic as his so I can achieve/surpass my goals 💗💗
Kevin has more talent in his little finger than most people do in their entire body.
Simply amazing

Kevin is a musical genius. He did that all in one take. You could tell when he knew he nailed that. Pure 🔥
I've Watched so many reactions to this video and They all said he's mind blowing. Just seeing the shocking look on their faces is priceless, lol I love this. thanks guys for reacting
he isn't the human instrument of pentatonix for nothing
Kevin is the personification of perfection. Like, WTF.
That smile at the end is the ear-to-ear grin of a dude who knows he's the sh-t.
I love Kevin’s smile at the end. He’s like, yeah, I just did that

Vasc Tech 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
He is amazing! Truly a genius.
Kevin is the man!
you were not ready for kevin! great reaction
Pentatonix actually agreed that Kevin can go higher than Mitch.
edit: As of falssetto. Mitch definitely got him beat with her whistle notes. 😂
No way!
Barry Allen Yeah but highest note? I heard mitch sounding like a screech on a board.
Simply Shy
Mitch can do whistle notes, so I doubt it....
Kevin has the highest head voice/falsetto note, but Mitch can reach the whistle register. Some don't count the whistle register as part of a vocal range however, so that would make Kevin beat out Mitch!
Do you count whistles as a vocal range?
AMAZING HE IS!!!! Go Kevin Go!!!
Absolutely loved your reactions. I have watched this many times and I love it. To watch you two be as blown away as I was delights me. I will be back. Hugs :-) BKK
guys between the 2 of you, there were sooo many head shakes I almost got a headache. You reactions were top notch. definitely a new subscriber

His cover of "Sign Of The Times" by Harry Stiles is great.
Oh my god, I am so late into the game, but I just wanted to tell you that you guys are the best reaction I've seen of that video... I was speechless myself... I'm going through your older Pentatonix stuff and I love it so far :)
The talent in one group is amazing Honestly Id put them up against anyone .
My suggestion for all around greatness is "the wizard of Ahhs" a colab of pentatonix. Instant classic. Keep on keepin on, J.
By the way, love you guys reactions. I often watch them more than once. Already subcribed.
Kevin truly is a Renaissance man. Such an impressive specimen of mankinds potential.
Now everyone knows and understands that Kevin is the Heart and Soul of Pentatonix!! in my humble opinion! Just Thinking out loud!!!
loved hiow Kevin was "feeling himself" near the end
suggestion: Pentatonix cover: Save the World / Don't You Worry Child
one of my faves and has incredible Scott vocals!
KO is made of amazing!!!
PS. Suggest Scott's Red cover. That's awesome. ua-cam.com/video/Px2mE7yOTew/v-deo.html
Gillian Ward I agree on Scott's Red cover. It's not to be missed. It's amazing. Blew my mind.
Please react to Kevin's Adele medley!! I can't wait for Superfruit!!!
you should totally react to his other stuff if you havent seen it already. Renegade is an original of his and an excellent showcase of his beatboxing and cello playing together.
Speechless 😶!!!!!!!
He can't sing bass notes. I was going to say he can't play baseball, but who knows? He probably can. So glad you appreciate what Kevin did here. It took me several views to figure it all out--especially when he's sampling his own beatboxing.
go watch his old video in high school he played Carnagie Hall and not on Cello or Beatboxing heis on Saxaphone
Anita Morgan that saxophone playing was amazing!!!
yes, that when I fell in love with his talent he is truly a gited musician and intelligent gentleman
The must beautiful thing I have ever heard.
You guys should listen to kevin's ep. Its called the renagade
He may be best of all on classical saxophone.. what a trip. God is amazing.
Kevin may be the most important member of PTX
His studio looks pretty amazing. Surprised you didn't comment on that.
WOW WOW WOW
Hey guys, just saw a video of KO playing the saxophone @ Carnegie Hall in 2005... check it out, he just gets more amazing. Keep on keeping on J.
Kevin plays the Chelo, saxophones and is a great beatboxer and arranger. I would recommend you reacting to more Kevin's stuff you would enjoy them. The stay with me video on his channel is so good.All of our pentatonix members are so gifted Avi plays the guitar along with singing. Mitch and Scott both play the piano they are all so talented.

Matt Sallee (their new Bassist) plays drums and piano.

Please react to Naked or All night by Kirstin Maldonado
Please
please react to kevin sign of the times, you won't regret itt! soo good
And he said he just started taking voice lessons on tour with Pentatonix a coupla tours ago.
So funny to think that PTX were only looking for a beat-boxer!
FYI. (If I’ve already told you, I’m sorry...) on 10/12/17, Pentatonix announced their new bass. His name is Matt Sallee. He’s a recent graduate of the Berklee School of Music in Boston...
Unless I missed it and you already did it, you GOTTA do Sign of the times, guys. It's even better than this. One man orchestra there...BTW, love your reactions, especially the facial expressions!!!
F-ing amazing. That is all.

He's definitely the smartest guy in the group!! And they found him through his UA-cam videos of him playing the cello and beatboxing!!
