Taiwanese girl plays three music instruments synchronically
A viral video showing a Taiwanese artist, Shara Lin, playing three different musical instruments (piano, violin and guqin) synchronically…
I remember seeing the girl a few times on TV when she was an undergraduate in a music college, making random appearances on some variety shows. AFAIK she has not released any album or starred in any notable drama roles. The video is obviously going to put her into spotlight, and perhaps offers her a real chance to become a star.
[Update] Shara was a show host for a travel program in 2007-2010, and is starring as the leading lady in a Taiwanese drama in 2011. The video was made more than a year ago, and somehow made it online only recently and gone viral.
