Family – Parents, Grandparents, Brother

One question that has been on the lips of many people is whether this kid star got his rare talent from his parents and/or has anyone in his lineage exhibited such mastery of music. From what we gathered, Ethan Bortnick’s parents Hannah and Gene Bortnick are not musicians but have been supportive since his mom – Hannah spotted the music talent of his son. Things changed for good with the kid on a certain afternoon when his mother heard and saw him playing the musical notes of a song being played on the radio. Ethan played with such precision and mastery that his mother was awestruck when he saw him. Hannah and Gene Bortnick subsequently decided to enrol their young child for piano lessons but this was partly delayed as Ethan’s brother – Nathan was already on the way.

Nathan Bortnick was born with a rare heart defect which caused him and his mom to stay back at the Miami Children’s Hospital as he got proper medical attention. The kid has since then had a couple of surgeries and is doing fine.

While Nathan was being treated at the hospital, Ethan was sent to live with his grandparents where he continued playing with a toy piano and was subsequently enrolled for proper piano lessons. His first piano teacher, Vaserstein, in no distant time also accented to how talented the kid was and encouraged him the more. He continued to learn under his teacher’s tutelage and soon began composing more complicated songs and grew to become who we know him as today.
