Wuilly Arteaga, a talented musician from Venezuela, plays his violin at a busy intersection of Times Square. He's skilled and good at drawing attention. Specifically, he draws the attention of four New York men, who love the sound of music so much that they stop to do an impromptu dance, right in the middle of Times Square! Luck for you, this was all caught on video and you can see it for yourself.

The fun begins when one man starts doing the Harlem Shake. And then he amps it up with some other hip-hop moves, all perfectly executed in time with the violinist. He finishes, but another man steps up to perform some moves of his own.

And then there are four of them all taking turns to display their dance moves as the talented Wuilly Arteaga continues his incredible tune. We later find out that the dancers in the video are Moe Black, Bruce Flee, and Ainsley Barrinton Brundage, all of whom have talent of their own.

This video, no more than 75 seconds long, has gone viral since its initial sharing. And it has gotten upwards of 6 million views so far. Many people have enjoyed watching, and hundreds of thousands of them have shared their positive thoughts on the uplifting video.

With so much cheer and joy to be found in 75 seconds, it's no wonder that this video is having such a great impact.

Apparently the violinist, Wuilly Arteaga, is not new to the social spotlight. He has been featured in headlines before. The New York Times covers a story, stating that he was once homeless and taught himself how to play the violin by watching online tutorials.

He made his way to fame in 2017 when he played his tunes in his home country of Venezuela, in the middle of a violent protest against the President, Nicolas Maduro. And in spite of the heavy violence around him, Arteaga continued his performance. Arteaga says that he knows his music creates a climate of peace, which is why he'll continue playing. 

This video of the men dancing to his music is just one of the many demonstrations of what his playing can do. Have you seen this viral video? Let us know what you think about it!
