Thanks for posting her background.

Yes, Jackie plays the piano and violin as well!
I can do none of the above so I surely appreciate this little girls talent.

I heard about this this morning. Thanks for posting it.
Hearing a voice like that out of someone so young reminds me of the first time that I heard Charlotte Church back in '99. (I hope things go better for this young girl.)

Not exactly the Susan Boyle Feelgood Video of the Year last year, but very entertaining.

My thoughts exactly about Charlotte Church. Jackie has an amazing voice, but I think her vocal coach should work on her breath control. I noticed when exploring the YouTube videos that her older brother, Jacob, sings too.

Thanks for posting this, was going to myself. Something bright amid the gloom and doom.

She truly has an amazing voice, adorable little girl and nice personality.

Anybody know what she sang? I found it, it's "O mio babbina caro" from Puccini’s 1918 opera ‘Gianni Schicchi'.

I think Charlotte Church sang that, too, yes, also Sarah Brightman.

Jackie “Evancho... has performed many times at the invitation of Pennsylvania Senator Jane Orie.”

Looks like Jane Orie is a Republican:

Saw her last night for the first time. God has truly blessed this little girl.

Just to note, she appeared just now at the Lighting Ceremony for the National Christmas Tree on the Elipse behind the White House.

INCREDIBLE ~ look for videos on this one.
