I never knew a Violin could get that low, it is beautiful! I am a 2nd chair Viola, and we did this song last year.. still in 9th grade. I have been playing for 5 years!
@tommygir3 -- thanks...that's my brother playing and he's picked up the viola and loves it. this was a nice violin with a deep, dark sound, but violins can get into that bass range (fourth string is a g...same as your 3rd string, i guess)...you should post some viola stuff :)
hi, that's my brother playing and he loves to do this slow and sad...you're right about that...but we also do this as a duet and then, he starts out slowly as a lament and we quickly move up the speed and play it at a more traditional temple :D
Have you taped your duet for You tube? should be nice hearing the both of you playing with both tempo's. The violin version is good, I just like it a bit faster. But, then that is just MHO
i really liked your orchestra's version quite a bit. my sister and i perform this piece and we do a very fast version and a slower version which we intersperse...for the purpose of the sound sample i kept it simplistic and slower. this piece is great because its cool no matter what you do :D ps: your el toro is great
hi...i'm his sister...we both do these violin sound samples. this is a duet that we play together, but we've been playing it for 2 or 3years and do it from memory. there is sheet music out there for it; if i can find it i'll message you, but it's been a long time since we've had it handy. i'll look, though :D
ok, thank you :) by the way... you and your brother do nice stuff right there... it's pleasure to hear such a beautiful tones. your collection of instruments is astonishing too.
Great choice of a piece to accompany the violin...er...fiddle. :D The piece and instrument go very well together. Great job! Definitely an earthy violin. :D

violin solo makes the song very sad.

My orchestra played this song several times so far this year. :3 I play double bass and it's quite the piece, if I do say so, as a whole.
