Am I the only one who thinks it's weird that a "rock violinist" spends at least half his time singing with a violin track in the background? I'm a metal cello player, and I at least make an effort to sing and play at the same time, and if I can't do both, it's the singing that goes, not the playing.
@unblackcellofreak777 primary reason is the difficulty of the violin part, go check out danse russe by hurt, singer is playing violin and singing, but it' pretty simple..
It's just a matter of time before Antonio Pontarelli is a huge star. He is a real artist that writes music that touches you deeply & that's what timeless music is about.
emergence999, playing a fretted violin isn't like playing a guitar. When you bow a fretted violin the intonation changes within a single fret according to where you place your fingers. You have to be dead on to play in tune. The frets are there for chords. I respect anyone who can move so passionately while playing one.:-)
I have been wondering, if a person likes to sing and plays the violin, how are you going to do both. I suppose he has the answer, nice violin strap.
I don't think that he has the time to look at the fret while playing and rocking the whole time. Not forgetting to mention his hair getting in his way.
lol what a cheat......a FRETTED VIOLIN??!!! (technically this is easier than playing a guitar or a violin since you dont need the speed of the picking hand) - lmfao. Very sick solo thou and good voice :)
WOW! Antonio Pontarelli is a real star! It is exciting to find someone with a fresh and current approach to the music scene. I love his voice, passion and the violin takes it over the top!
gyaaaaaaaaaaaa! RAK en' ROWL ! ! ! i love the song ! ! ! though the distortion of Anton's Vio is too heavy that makes some notes pretty hard to define . . . but in total, this band ROCKS ! ! ! keep it up man!
OMG!!! THIS IS GREAT!!!! LOVE IT!!! but if u wanna hear violin to the max, then u should check out this gruop called the baroque boyz and there first song called turn-around!!!!!
They suck goddamit. Shut up and stop doing this to everyone's violin videos. Antonio is infinetly better than that shit rap band with a violin that plays 2 notes. Fuck off.
That was awesome! Thank you so much for this; my little boy asked to see "a guitar, a bass, drums, cymbals AND a violin" for his bedtime music video tonight. And I found this!
Pardon my nosiness, but how old is the violinist? He looks quite young, but performs with such skill and confidence that he seems much older. Very well done!
OMG, what an amazing performer! Great song, beautiful vocals, and a brilliant violin performance. Absolutely exceptional! Please post more performances by this gifted musician. Many thanks!
that's mark wood viper violin. wow, he's really talented. I'm a violin player but he's much better than me. thanks for posting this composition. well done.
Dude! You Rock. Very cool. Where can I get a Vipor fiddle like that for under the insane prices I see online? Does anyone know of other makes that you can throw your head around like Antonio? They are freestanding or whatever...ya don't have to hold it up with your hand.
what happened to this kid? he's awesome. he seems to have vanished.

@da4500bass Then he should get a different singer. If he advertises himself as a rock violinist that's what he should be doing instead of singing.
