[ocarinamaster1]

[HarRaven]

what are you looking out when you play?

[crackhead1885]

Beautiful lol I'm tryin to play it -.- but I can't do it I think I'll do wut the other guy is doin and copying your fingers lol

[MrOOTFREAK1]

:*( so beautiful

[darkwindsage]

damn! you are good!



[BellethielDaugon]

*sigh* I really need the sheet music for this. I'm going to keep watching your fingers and learn how to play that way. xD

It sounded great by the way.

[bestkidoftheworld1]

Wow you play excelent the violin! And I love that song

[JTehAnonymous]

@bestkidoftheworld1 Thanks so much! :D This song is very awesome.

[mkocja5a]

you're the best violin player i've ever heard :D

[davidcrandallmusic]

I play this song on Mandolin, which is tuned the same as a violin, and the original key is MUCH more difficult to play than transposed up a half step. Fantastic job!

[SuperMajorZeldaFanXD]

Wow you are amazing. I have a question. Wats ur violin name and how much did it cost

[thelegendofGrr]

you are a genius 

[momchicken502]

does any one know where i can get this on viola?

[taylorb308]

this is so beautiful it gave me goosebumps O.O!!

[RANGERSHULL]

I used to play the violin like that, then I took an arrow to the knee.

[TpriceOfficial97]

classic cover bro! :D

[FlyingSujin67]

your parent's should've named you Makar

[treyyert13]

you are awesome lol and not being weird but i look alot like you glasses and brown hair its weird

[FlyingTurtlesInSpace]

You, sir, are epic.



[MrJstone2000]

i give medlis prayer a 10/10 and makars prayer8/10 cause u left some parts out but its still really good

[luisninfant]

I have a very good ear, and that string actually didn't sound so bad, he's really good, and I love that song.

[venusmoonFLOW2]

i wish u could come and teach me how to play the song that u know

[TheAkirezeuqzav]

super awesome!! :D i've always love zelda songs! :) can you play the serenade of water from twilight princess??

[TylerDragoneyes]

OMG WHERE DID YOU GET THE MUSIC

[CatWhisks]

0:26 = Epicness...

[TheNovak220]

Violin is so hard to play and if I didn't see someone be playing it I'd think it couldn't be done

[TheFauzi1]

I play th trumpet and it is way harder than the violin

[Himeka2015]

@TheFauzi1 Yeahhh. I play both trumpet and violin and I must say that violin is harder. With brass/wind instruments you coordinate your mouth to your fingers, but it's MUCH harder coordinating hand to hand like that. At least it was for me i don't know about anyone else.

[ZeKindomHacker33]

@Himeka2015 i play trumpet and piano and omg i wanna start the violin now too XD

[Himeka2015]

@ZeKindomHacker33 Do it! It's a lot of fun! I also play Viola as well, and either of them would be great! :)

[GizmoBeam]

Heh, you're a real life Makar.

[Ekkz]

EARGASM! I love this song so much /)^3^(\

[XxOnto86xX]

i liked it man! thanks for posting it!

[marzgirl99]

wow!

[MegaGabrielb]

I have just started my violin lessons, and you inspire me :3. Wish me luck.

[JTehAnonymous]

@MegaGabrielb Luck! You have my support!

[HeyZeus1337]

That was awesome :) i remember i used to play this game on Game Cube :) fun times ;)

[Apollo28sun]

Ahh! I'm jealous! I'd probably break the violin trying to pull this off. Bravo!

[numan1]

My ears are cumming right now

[numan1]

good shit nigga

[Zelcraft]

! person couldnt figure out how to get past the start screen

[nifhelheimdrauphnir]

correction, D and Eb going up xp

[nifhelheimdrauphnir]

can someone please give me the music sheet of the right version of this song?

[nifhelheimdrauphnir]

acording with the key that has G A B E F ~b's

the begining, is G#= Ab

then the D and E going up... those are the 3 notes that beggining this key for this song...... -_-u......

if you beggin with D or A kind of sounds ok too.... that the problem giving

[JTehAnonymous]

@nifhelheimdrauphnir I realize the original key is very nasty. I also could not find the correct sheet music, so I just transposed it to an easier key and did it by ear. I apologize for not having the sheet music.

[nifhelheimdrauphnir]

dude... give us the NOTES, I WANT THE NOTES XD

seriously..... what pisses me off is that this song can be in played in so many keys its anoying to find the song in the original version. Damn it......

i cant learn this song as a remix. i want it how it is

[lesserpandas12]

I think your a string is out of tune.......

[JTehAnonymous]

@lesserpandas12 Yeahhhh, it definitely was. LOL

[MistaBatty]

@JTehAnonymous Don't feel bad though, it was amazing! this video deserves more views and likes :)

[TYLERxTHExTURTLE]

@lesserpandas12 lol



[LolVermillion]

You are awsome! Congratulation uppercut, man!

[KuutatoSpecter]

EPIC.

[Awesomesockgirl]

You are my hero

[peacekamrynlorae]

How do you get the sheet music?

[beejim1]

The... the sheet music link doesn't work for me... any help? I really would like it.

Nice job, btw! I'm still learning ^_^

[JTehAnonymous]

@beejim1 Thanks for the comment! Try the new link I posted in the description. Once you go there, click the first choice and you can download music from the original songbook. The site is very great and has tons of sheet music available! I've updated the description of this video to help others in the future as well.

[JetDrumma]

Nice job. :D I was kind of hoping for the upper octave, but whatevs. xD

[stephanregorroger2]

if humans are desendants of hylians, tis dude is oviously a descendant of the koroks! you have makar's blood within!

[DragonSword1100]

UGH Show off :( i want to be that good GrrrrRRRrrrrr. Why don't you make tutorials

[MissLaughALot9799]

I'd hit that ;P

Windwaker style

[enemykiller00]

if you can play that song on the violin,you can play makar's theme

[TheIddiotChannel]

It looks like you have music for this song. What i want to know is: WHERE ON EARTH CAN I GET THIS MUSIC?!?!?! I play violin and have been a fan the of legend of zelda games for years. I also have a lot of friends who are fans of these games and would be amazing in their eyes if I could play this

[kgurlybrat]

WONDERFUL!!! <8D truly magnificent!!

[haxx1233]

where did you get the sheet music for this?



[101Ryandude]

lol i notice that this has two songs in it makar and the opening lol

Cool Mix!

[damagehunter1]

just in fact

great act

you are the best

[ThtsCaptainObvious2u]

i'm working on this atm

[yohanan1000]

You're playing in the Earth god's and Makar's Prayer Key. Wind Waker opening is different in key.

[Ericrehmann]

Man, that's pretty fucking awesome. I started learning violin today and this is the first song goal I have.

[chasecute]

very nice very nice..but one suggestion is to make the notes flow like the meledy does! and very nice on the makars prayer!

[german199denuevo]

u got real good talent, well done!

[mel2thegibson]

wow nice job man best i've seen so far. would you say the violin would be relatively easier to play if you can play the guitar?

[JTehAnonymous]

@mel2thegibson I would imagine it'd be easier to pick up, but you have to realize that the violin is drastically different from a guitar in so many aspects. Still, it helps if you already know how to read music, know scales, etc.

[TheShadowTreasurer]

@mel2thegibson

The Guitar is really easy to learn, there is no doubt about it -_-

And The Violin is different to the guitar.

[themasterofalllegos]

I think ganondorf just came

[linklover68]

this is awsome

[bananas19011]

:o where did you find the sheet music for that?! dude i'v been trying forever to play that. oh and btw ur realy good at violin!!! eather your the same or better than me (and i'v been playing for 7 years and im only twelve) heh heh heh... PLZ REPLY!!!!!!!!!!

[evilinsaneneko]

I've been trying to learn the Wind God's Aria forever. >< This is amazing~

[legopivot311]

thx for the song and music =D

ive been playing violin for about 3 years now, well, mostly western style, but i am downloading it and you are AWESOME!!!!!!

[legopivot311]

@legopivot311 i just started learning it! but the part that is a higher pitch im stuck at that part =\

[omaro14]

fantastic

[pikaluv8]

this so awesome

[SadCephalopod]

This may be a stupid question, but do you have any tips for playing this song?

[SadCephalopod]

I've spent many hours trying to learn this but it is beyond my ability at my present skill level. You rock!

[Mitchman240]

how long have you been playing the violin?

I'm on my second month and am really starting to appreciate how impossible it can be.

[JTehAnonymous]

@Mitchman240 About 6 years.

[LilithsBane2]

@JTehAnonymous

Same here. Except i teach myself the music by listening to it instead of the sheet music.

But very beautiful... love the vibrato... so sweet.

[pikaluv8]

@Mitchman240 lol me too! xD

[Kirby395]

@Mitchman240 I dont play the violin, but i do play flute, and ive been playing 4 less than a year, and its extremely difficult.

[saizen34]

@Kirby395 same here, i took flute for a semester, the trick is to look up tons of advice on blowing tips, especially the higher notes, good luck!

[Kirby395]

@saizen34 June 1st was my last concert of the year!

[VeohXni]

Man you are amazing, you make me want to learn to play the violin. Simply inspiring!

[Aoi0Wind]

/little girl squeal;

This was the first real song I ever played on my violin ; u ;

It was totally above my level, and it took forever, but I do love it so

Another spectacular cover~

[DegoFlamron]

*sigh* It used to be, this was all people needed to dance, to sing, to laugh...a fiddle and someone who knew how to play it... Makes me think of days long gone, that I will never see, but wish I could...Thanks for sharing.

[Niwatori132]

Watch the intonation on your open strings, also in the string solo part watch to make sure you don't rush just because its harder. Very good performance overall and nice vibrato.

[TheBackbeat2]

WELLLLLLLLLLLLL DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

[JTehAnonymous]

@wanderingviolinist Hahah that's pretty cool! XD.

Thank you very much. To be perfectly honest with you, the two videos you commented on are some of my least favorite that I made. You should check out a few of my more recent ones! I think you'll like them.

- John

[JTehAnonymous]

@wanderingviolinist There is a link to the download in the description. Also I think the SquareSound website might have the sheet music available too if you want an alternative.

The original key of the piece is D flat major. I transposed it to D major, and I start on an A, if that helps.

- John

[tashixtragedy]

that was super! :D i enjoyed that!

[TGMCproductionz]

hey can u give me the notes or where i can find the sheet music

[BeAtRiiiiU]

I love your bedroom's color ^^

The song is very sweet ^^

5/5

[Daveysogravy]

Loveee windwakerrr

[JTehAnonymous]

Me too. 8). You're one of the biggest Zelda fans I know.

[Daveysogravy]

Except you played that one note wrong, and that other note, and not to mention your hair wasn't too great. I think you need to moisturize those hands, and your violin sucks. And the last note was just dreadful.

[JTehAnonymous]

Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh T.T

[colev8]

@Daveysogravy Hey, Mr. Awesome socks, If you're so perfect and such a critique, Why don't you try doing this! Oh, I know, post a video response showing you omnipotent ability to play violin? How about that? I think he did perfectly fine, and you couldn't do better! Thumbs up if you agree on the video response idea, and JTehAnonymous, don't let jerks hurt you with words, ok?

[Daveysogravy]

@colev8 woahhhh woahh I've known John since kindergarten. It was an inside jokeee ;D

[JTehAnonymous]

XD Hahaha Thank you very much. Yeah, I've known David forever and he was just messing with me, so don't worry. =)

[colev8]

@JTehAnonymous ok. I can be a little two personalities sometimes, and I just click on some things.

[Chefodeath]

@colev8 The fool who does not accept criticism remains a fool to be criticized

[LoriM1000]

the wind waker song track is by far any of my faviorte video game music ever.

[Mthement]

Uhhh do u play in a different room every time because in all of ur videos it looks different @.@

[jugglinguy]

I think you need a 3 hole punch and a Hannah in all of your bedrooms.

[JTehAnonymous]

I think I need a 6 hole punch.

[colloyd]

yay! been waiting for you to play this one :D

[MapleChowder]

.....I LOVE WINDWAKER. :3

[MapleChowder]

OH MY GOD. I LOVE WINDWAKER. ITS ONE OF MY FAVORITE ZELDA GAMES. ACTUALLY IT IS, BECAUSE INSTEAD OF THE REGULAR REALISTIC GRAPHICS, ITS MORE CARTOONY AND HAS A GREAT STORY, MUSIC, AND OVERALL GAMEPLAY. Playing as ToonLink (now as hes known as) when i was a little kid made me feel as if i actually were Link, because the other zelda's portrayed him as a teenager or adult, while i was just like 7 or 8. :D

[JTehAnonymous]

Windwaker Is my 2nd favorite Zelda game of all time. Ocarina is first, haha. XD

[MapleChowder]

I like ocarina too, because it took zelda into 3d and was a new innovation and stuff, but never have i loved a zelda game like windwaker....THE GAME THAT TOOK ME 5 YEARS TO BEAT CUZ I WAS SCARED OF REDEADS IN THE EARTH TEMPLE.....and because after that i didnt know tingle would decipher the triforce maps/how to get the one in the ghostship....xD

[Arrow9100kj]

0.0. So it isnt just me! I am terrified of Re-deads ever since OoT. I hate that they grab on to ya and just suck your brains out! I got my Wii and Twilight princess on the day it was released (in 2006)and I've only recently faced the re deads in the 3rd temple and moved on to the snow mountain, so thats 4yrs. Those re-deads have scared me for life! And the ones in TP actually shriek, paralyze you and den cut you with a buster sword of CLoud like proportions!!! *shudders*Oh and Good playing John!

[MapleChowder]

LOL well im only afraid of the ones who knaw your brains out, the ones who use a sword are too easy.....either "NomNomNom" their head as a wolf w/ a jump attack, or as regular link, use a bomb arrow. TP makes redeads too easy imo. BUT YEAH...when i first got the game at 9 (4 years ago) i was terrified of em. youre not alone :P

[Arrow9100kj]

Ya! The bomb kill makes TP redeads ez to deal with but OoT traumatised me so no matter how ez they are.....they just kinda freak me out xD.

But the Windwaker redeads aren't that bad either, they're kinda kawaii bcuz they''re all cortoonified and chibi xD. But its good to know that it isnt just me who's suffering from redeadphobia xD

[MapleChowder]

yep :D

[JTehAnonymous]

Yeah, when I saw Re-deads in Ocarina, I basically cried. I was like, 8. T.T
