Indeed...
When I first saw her clip of Fly Me To The Moon listed in the far right hand side of a YT screen, I clicked on it out of curiosity, but was very surprised by how really good a guitarist MiuMiu is at six years of age; I was fascinated by her hands and the precision she has accomplished; her fine motor skills are way beyond her peers who are probably still struggling to stay inside the lines in their coloring books; she plays so cleanly and precisely and her ability with barre chords at such a young age is impressive; in one of her videos, a commenter speculated someone off camera was supplying the tremolo picking parts in her song, yet, if you look closely at her right hand, you can see her ring and little fingers making very subtle movement to achieve the sound, something even a lot of adult players struggle to master...
She has even had her videos used for collaborations with other musicians who play along as accompaniment with her original postings. The results are very often surprisingly good, although, sometimes, the accompanists overwhelm her vocals...
Now for something to show MiuMiu can handle an electric guitar as well as an acoustic:

If you want to see how truly impressive her performance is, here is a clip of the number played by the original artist as a comparison:

At her core she is still just a little six year old girl; there is an interview clip of her on her YT site and in it she says she has ambitions beyond guitar:

I hope she also lives well and long, and has all her dreams come true...
