This violin you play it is truly magnificent and I adore the violin it is a very special instrument that on can hear a happiness and tears with the way the strings are being played..Augustus-David, your talent is given from God..I am sure.

Love & blessings

[dennise7star]

Standing ovation!!

~Dennise

[YolandaSamone]

Oh this makes me so excited! I'm 25 and just bought my first violin off a music teacher...No age has a limit on learning new things! Love the song, lots of emotion :)

[HiddenBlackHistory]

amazing

[Foxylady87]

Beautiful. I have always loved the sound of the violin. Well done. :)

[Lichtfee004]

amazing ..thumbs up .. ann

[LiveAndLetLauren]

I don't know much about the violin but i'd say that was awesome! :P

[MusicItConsumesMe]

That was absolutely amazing :D

[Bloedmann546]

Nice! (Y)

[ChevKen]

Wow,You're great!

[NUBDUK]

great experience to here the symphony "dry" without orchestra, just the soloviolin...great performance, lot of pepper...!

[magi10001]

you are awsome !!

[Kadadj]

I wish more people would choose to play an instrument instead of fucking around on a computer making terrible rap. A bit of double standards on my part since i make music on a computer myself, but at least I compose stuff after scales in keys, and actually know how to organize a song.

[Joelam400]

17 people forgot to turn the volume on...

[enalevets]

WOW!  Fantastically done!

[jtrstrings]

you bring the BRAHMS alive! very exciting! Bravo!

[ionakana83]

I heard once you've played with them last season, you were not eligible to audition with them this time round...

[Augustusdavid]

@ionakana83 That is correct.

[KBryant24LAL]

this makes me wnana laugh cause my sister plays violin and shes playin frosty the snow man :) HAHAH

[Augustusdavid]

@KBryant24LAL well it's almost December so...tis the season!

[KBryant24LAL]

@Augustusdavid LMFAO! :) HAHAH this made my day.

[violinistCynthiaAnne]

wow that is really good 

[unitednerdsbeproud]

You are my inspiration!!!!! THANK YOU!!!

[Larojf]

great



[scarpina9]

excellent!!!!

[lovesGenet]

Wow , the symph never sounds like this ! One of the late strong autumnal works . Ha, not Here! It is exciting closer to Wieniawski really with your assured panache! and double stops would have made for a concert piace all of its own. Really happy to see a bruh playing great music. Now give us the Heifetz cadenza to the Brahm con. I think u should make some transcriptions. U have fire and the virtuoso style. The Saint-Saens -Ysaye Valse is made for you!

[unclejuniorsoprano]

Did you play this movement exactly as it would be played in an orchestra, or did you add double-stops & chords? I don't have the score with me. At any rate, your playing is certainly not boring & I'd much rather see you play than Joshua Bell. Keep up the good work. As for buying you a better violin, I'd love to do so, but then, my x-wife won't get her vaginamony payments.

[Augustusdavid]

@unclejuniorsoprano I just followed the score as I played this excerpt. I'm glad you like it....and I can be patient on the new violin!! : )

[unclejuniorsoprano]

You are deserving of a much better fiddle. I am quite proud of you for personal reasons. Please keep up the good work. My only advice to you is that you study virtuosi like Heifetz who play with precision & a sense of dignity.

Best of luck to you.

[Augustusdavid]

@unclejuniorsoprano These are very very kind words. They go a long way and will keep me locked in the practice room today.

[Augustusdavid]

@unclejuniorsoprano p.s If ANYONE would like to buy me a better violin I am open to discussing this!

[kasztankap]

wow, what an expression:D you are crazy:D

[CommBreakDown]

VERY VERY nice man.... fuckin' beautiful

[estan247]

You better had won. That was ridiculous. no other words...

This makes me want to practice now

[tenniscrazy2]

This is just...wow...there aren't any words to describe how amazing it is =O

[blackartist90]

It's extraordinary.Compliments.

[fashongr]

You used to be my violin teacher! Way to go David!

[CaptainCheeseCurl]

Beautiful.

[StroutsInk]

[mhmele]

[KillerD1017]

[aurazillian]

[goodcommentguy]

[ThaSchwab]

I love the shift at 0:23. I practice it all the time, and I don't even play the violin.

[elgoog93]

That's my cuz yall!!! David I'm so happy for u I havent been on the computer lately to vote for you but what God has for you is for you. You know you're a great violinist. Luv ya much!!! Have fun and I hope I get to the symphony : )

[Augustusdavid]

Thanx for the support cuz!!!!!!!!!!

[HazySpirit]

You already know it as you won, but you totally rock. Deserved victory ! Have fun at Carnegie :D

[topchoices]

I really enjoyed this number but am not really qualified to vote on a symphony audition and while I really like the category have not the time to see all of the videos before the end of the contest, but this is a good idea to expand the choices for music students.

[CyberVillageMembers]

Gr8 stuff! My daughter plays the violin and she will love this video! Keep up the gr8 work!

[BenChanViolin]

Dude, we're going to Carnegie Hall! I'm so excited to meet you in person soon!  And, thanks to the tremendous outpouring of support from our YouTube friends - it's a joint victory!

[Augustusdavid]

I think on the show "Survivor" what we had is called "An Alliance"  Looking forward to next month!!!!!!!

[liljohn1300]

mad skills man : )

[ARIDEASDISCOBOY]

GREAT 1

[Elchupacabras07]

Magnifico!!Bravo!!

[BARRUMUNDII]

you're certainly a virtuoso performer. Too bad your instrument SUCKS lol. JK I usually hate the violin, but when it is played with such a rich tone, the upper register is withstandable.

[missedme83]

Impressive skills. 5 stars easily.

[themusicmann]

hey man, you're really good. i love how you set the bow before the notes to give it a crisp attack. very nice. and your sound is great too.

[Donnydarko4]

Amazing!

[innerJAG]

wow. the first several notes gave me goose bumps. amazing.

[ronartis]

Pure Passion keeps the Arts alive.. and you my friend are doing your part.. you have inspired my children. Thanks from The Artis Family
