No such thing as a prodigy...he started at 3 1/2. He put in hours of practice, and sweat. He deserves to be acknowledged for all his hard work to get to where he is. :)
What a fine, fine little feller. Just as humble and well mannered. And, although it looked as if the interviewer was doing his best to get him to say something against his humility, this little Christian boy honored His Lord instead. And such talent His Lord has given him. I was just as impressed with his humility and grace as with his talent. Little Carson is very blessed, and very much a blessing. His parents must be so proud (in a humble, thankful sort of way) of their son.
In his genes ! I know what that is like. The music comes from the brain and down the arms and into the fingers and that is it. It happened to me with the Mandolin but at age nearing sixty. This boy was blessed in finding out so young. Marie Mandolin
A real fine fiddler Stan Howe asked me, What is the difference between a professional musician and a pepperoni pizza.Answer, A pizza can feed a family of four. It is hard to make a living in the music business. He does a lot of other things to get by but music is his life. No matter what you end up as KEEP ON FIDDLING. It will bring joy to you as well as others! Jim
OK, first of all WOW. I play the violin and that is amazing! But second, he should have his wrist out, not in. You hold the violin up with your chin and your hand, not your wrist. Sorry >_< I get nagged about that a lot myself. But that doesn't mean that this isn't amazing. Just... wow.
oh my heck, this kid is amazing, he needs to come to the great Canadian Barn Dance in Hill Spring Alberta Canada I the summer he'd be very welcome to come to the bluegrass festivals and the acoustic camp!!
Keep playing great, stay modest, and don't let things like what the interviewer said at the end affect you at all. You're way ahead of that kind of thinking.
""God Bless You Carson and your Mom and Dad"" All the days of your life !! Your One GREAT Little Guy...Its good to know there's still "Good Clean Cut Country Boy" like you in AMERICA !! Id love to see you on the Grand Ole Opry Again !!!! Any Parent would be Proud to say "Thats My Boy" on stage making people smile !!!!You Handsome Rascal !!!
As a bluegrass musician and a teacher, clips like this make me want to puke and be so proud at the same time! lol. These kids are getting younger and younger and more and more talented. That's awesome. It's annoying that I've been playing for 29 years and some of these kids have more talent at 9 then I do now. Great job!!!
Get'er Done Carson. Nice job. You remind me of 2 men. Mark O'Conner who told the story of him going to a fiddler's "Camp" and sat in a room and played till he got it right. he always said it was the best thing for him even though it wasn't much fun at the time. And Ricky Skaggs who started playing about your age and never looked back. I think you'll be on the of the best and in line for your share of the gold. Keep it up Carson. Love to see what you do when you're 20.
Good job. Slow that Ragtime Annie down. Keep the original tune and beat. Fast doesn't mean good. Listen to the greats like Byron Berline, Baker, lots of others. They don't have to cheat with speed. Style and technique. You are nearly there already so you have a huge jump on everyone else. Michael Cleveland is one of the few who can really go fast and keep the original tune .
What a great video. I will be praying for the best for Carson. And there will be many doors open up for you! You have a great talent, and your band does great backing you up.
I watch this kid over and over, he is a star! I just read that his first cd was released in March 2014, so I better get out there and buy it, I'm sure the music stores have a well supplied with everything he has ever put out, wow, I am so happy!
Oh yeah! Touring non-stop! Their shows are always sold out! He is unbelievable. Look him up now on Carson peters & iron mountain. Carson is now 15 year old and has been on the grand ole opry several times and tons of other big national televised shows! A true legend right before your eyes..
You will definitely be a pro. I am very inspired by you...and you made me smile!
He is a gifted Child.. God Bless you and your family
MR Peters was asked the difference between a violin and a fiddle.His responce,a violin has strings,a fiddle has straagns.CLASSIC!!
Awesome little boy plays exceptionally well 🎶 .....well brought up and Loves the Lord 👍❤🕆🕊
Oh my Lord he's a prodigy....and I love his playing.....
No such thing as a prodigy...he started at 3 1/2. He put in hours of practice, and sweat. He deserves to be acknowledged for all his hard work to get to where he is. :)
@@kujon1968 ..your right my friend...thanks for the correction. 🎻 An amazing talent.
Carson is already there, I can't wait to see where his talents take him next. ☺

i don't know which i admire more, you're fiddle playing or your mature, modest humility !
Fantastic boy! Look out to hear more from you, you are gonna make it for sure!! You got the talent & the Southern charm :)!
This is beautiful that the Lord Jesus Christ has blessed this young boy with such talent he is blessed by the Lord Jesus Christ
He should play the super simple version of old McDonald, then bust out some crazy fiddle solo. That's what I was expecting to happen!
carson your going to be a big star.and your a good kid.love from England
Great stuff there! Good luck and happy fiddling!
Wonderful style and talent.

Go for it!

AWESOME
Fiddling is hard but the two main components is double stopping and lots of sliding
Kids who play fiddle now have proper technique. They keep the fiddle up while older players hold it below
I'm one of those older players - it's a definite style. It is used for marathon sessions, such as during a square dance.
I play da guitar he awesome
Cecilia Chen
Talented boy.
VERY talented.

I suppose they do. Thank you for informing me of this.
His technique doesn't matter. He is amazing despite not holding a classical position. If it works for him, he should continue.
fiddleshe. I agree....... that good..... stick with what works
It's not a violin. It's a fiddle.
they're the same thing.
Fantastic! Are you waiting until you get your Social Security card?
oh my heck, this kid is amazing, he needs to come to the great Canadian Barn Dance in Hill Spring Alberta Canada I the summer he'd be very welcome to come to the bluegrass festivals and the acoustic camp!!

Oh my GOSH! You are so adorable and an AMAZING player! I'm learning to play fiddle on my viola, and I have a LONG way to go to catch up to you!
my moms friend has know him since he was 3
""God Bless You Carson and your Mom and Dad"" All the days of your life !! Your One GREAT Little Guy...Its good to know there's still "Good Clean Cut Country Boy" like you in AMERICA !! Id love to see you on the Grand Ole Opry Again !!!! Any Parent would be Proud to say "Thats My Boy" on stage making people smile !!!!You Handsome Rascal !!!
Lindsey stirlinf and this kid have completely different styles of playing, so it shouldn't matter what she thinks
Always play with him.Im 13 and love to play my fiddle but I hate to play alone and nobody Will play with me
he is already a pro a 10......carry on Carson
What a sweet talented young man! I only hope to be able to play half as good as you someday!
Carson, you rock! Or whatever you country boys do, you do it very well :)
As a bluegrass musician and a teacher, clips like this make me want to puke and be so proud at the same time! lol. These kids are getting younger and younger and more and more talented.

Very Good! Check out some Johnny Gimble. Keep it up!

Im going to like country music because of you Carson. So talented and cute!
y do people say that the fiddle is a southern instrument, it originated from skotland
Excellent talent. I've been trying to learn to play longer than he is old.
brings back memories of living hill and my pappy teaching me the fiddle
Dad, has the need to keep up with your son's level of play made you better?
I've longed to learn how to play like this
OUUHHH RAH,Carson !! You rock my world !!!
Thank you for sharing. this is truly special.
Soooo.... did you go pro
Oh yeah! Touring non-stop! Their shows are always sold out! He is unbelievable. Look him up now on Carson peters & iron mountain. Carson is now 15 year old and has been on the grand ole opry several times and tons of other big national televised shows! A true legend right before your eyes..
Carson I love to hear you play. God bless you all.
So proud of you cousin!! See you at Easter!
how does this only hav 4,000 views?
Whats the song at the start??? I like it.
I think it is a tune rather than a song. I've heard it before and don't think it has words. Don't know the name though.
That tune at the beginning is called " Benton's Dream " written by Old Time Fiddle player Benton Flippen.
My sister said " he's cute"
What a amazing Carson
You go little dude!
He is amazing
Wonderful!
Amazing!!
AWESOME
AMAZING
This kid is AWESOME... I hope he goes far with his gift..
Why would you want him to go fat? That could be dangerous
Grady Meares Thanks for correcting me I hit the letter "t" instead of the letter "r" thanks again
bamaboy557 lol your welcome
He already is a pro.
