The most bubbly young girl came up to busker Violin Phonix and so politely asked to sing her favorite song “Let It Go.” We’ve all heard the hit plenty of times, but what young Indiya Borsalerro Hermann delivered was something special, as she not only had the sweetest voice but the most amazing piano chops. The magic really started happening when her sister Augustine spontaneously brought her violin out of its case and started dropping some gorgeous three-part harmonies with Violin Phonix and his friend.
You can tell Indiya and Augustine absolutely love performing together, and the special bond they share was plain to see during the performance. The good vibes between the performers and the big smiles from the crowd as they watched the moment unfold made for such a heartwarming performance. Four million viewers tuned in to hear the sisters’ shopping centre jam, and The Music Man isn’t surprised this moment went viral!
When Violin Phonix uploaded the “Let It Go” performance to his YouTube channel, it soon became one of his most popular videos. Fans loved the spontaneous collab and added comments such as “Just in case anyone needed proof that music brings people together and helps us forget our differences and our woes! The world needs more music” and “I got tingles in my whole body, such a beautiful combo, such a beautiful and stunning voice. Both of them are so young and so talented, plus the two adults.”
Violin Phonix seems to have a knack for finding the most talented musicians in Paris to jam with. One of his most popular videos features kids Tim and Lota, who asked him to play Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ “Die With a Smile.” Tim delivered a passionate opening vocal, and then young Lota stunned everyone with her soulful voice. The best part happened when the two youngsters started to sing in harmony, as 19.7 million viewers found out.
“Let It Go” was written by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez. The husband and wife writing duo also produced the song, along with a team of three other producers. The Music Man readers may recall that Idina Menzel recorded the lead vocals for the song, and it became a key tune for the 2013 Disney film Frozen. “Let It Go” became a worldwide sensation, going multi-Platinum in six markets. This included 11 times and 5 times Platinum certifications in the US and UK.
