A toddler was seen skilfully playing a traditional Khmer string instrument during a local festival in Svay Rieng province, southeastern Cambodia on March 6.
Proud uncle Khun Ratana took the amazing clip of his three-year-old nephew when the show started.
In the video, the boy is shown playing Chakhe, a Southeast Asian traditional string instrument . He knows well when he will play his parts by listening to the rhythm.
Filmer Ratana said: "I am proud of him. He is young but he plays the instrument better than me. He's already as good as his father."
Chakhe is a three-string instrument used in Khmer and Thai music. It is made of hardwood in the shape of a crocodile. The player will sit beside it, using two hands to pluck the strings.
