Isabel Hagen started pulling a bow across the violin strings at age five, switched to viola at age 10, and by age 12, was in the precollege program at Juilliard, eventually earning her master’s. Not finished making other parents wonder what might have happened if they’d just applied themselves, she went viral with funny videos, having started hitting comedy open mics when repetitive stress syndrome forced her to take a break from fiddlin’. It turned out that she was brilliant at that, too. Fans would be wise to check her out before she discovers Nascar and starts racing cars while playing viola and cracking jokes.
