Karolina Protsenko’s recent violin cover of “Sway” may be wordless but it speaks volumes. Uploaded on June 26, 2025, the video captures her performing the Michael Bublé classic with flair, rhythm and effortless grace. With each sweeping motion of the bow, Karolina channels the smoothness of the original song through the passionate voice of her violin. Even in a casual outdoor setting, the atmosphere becomes electric as her instrument dances between elegance and playfulness.
What makes this cover feel so alive is how much Karolina clearly enjoys the music. There’s a natural rhythm in the way she moves not just with technical skill but with joy. It’s not stiff or overly rehearsed; it feels like the violin is an extension of her voice. She brings swing-era charm to a modern street corner, letting her classical training meet the warmth of Latin-infused jazz-pop with ease.

For anyone who’s followed Karolina’s journey from early busking days to global recognition, this performance is another moment where her talent and emotional connection shine side by side. Comments overflow with admiration for how she captures not just melody but mood. Whether you’re familiar with the song or not, the feeling behind it is impossible to miss. It’s a reminder that music doesn’t need lyrics to be full of meaning.
That emotional depth only deepens in her next performance “Heal the World” by Michael Jackson. Released just two weeks later, the violin cover carries a different weight. Slower, softer, and more reflective, it trades rhythm for the heart. Karolina performs it not just as a tribute to a legendary song but as a message of hope. She plays with sincerity and softness, inviting everyone passing by to pause and feel.

She wrote that the song has always touched her, and it shows. Her expression, her touch on the strings, and even the way she closes her eyes between phrases all point to something more than technique. She believes the message and the violin becomes the messenger. Street performers often aim for attention, but Karolina offers connection.
In just two songs, Karolina Protsenko reminds us of the violin’s power to move, to groove, and to heal. Whether you’re swaying in rhythm or standing still in reflection, her music reaches you and that’s what makes her playing unforgettable.
