Tutorial: Bleach Fade to Black

[littlechiken100]

ben ben benny boy!!!  what you really need is more pussy!!! make some porno videos

[loopylondon9]

Do you use a shoulder rest? I cant tell. I want to learn Vibrato but i think i need a shoulder rest, but its so uncomfortable.

[KrazyAznKiid]

How do you keep your left hand straight :/ I can't seem to do it, it's too hard to keep the violin balanced, and reaching for notes are hard...........but after all I'm a novice

[TheStoCazzShow]

I never played a violin or non of musical instruments so to get to play this like you I'd need like 999999999 day's of hard work :[ :D

[elormsrigboh]

You should make more tutorials.

AWESOME!

[TheBackstabRecords]

could you do a full version of irish dance? really want to hear it with violin solo.

[jcowboy123]

Ben...get it done before the wife gets home???? UGH !

Sorry Dude have to collect your guy card...LOL

But keep up the great work.

[amuntvalenciane]

do you use a special microphone to record? it sounds relly good

[bobbysony]

[SomeAnimeOtaku]

So when are you going to do the 'real' cover? This is by far the coolest violin soundtrack I've ever heard and it would be so awesome if you could do make a cover:P

[Eskalial]

Hi Benchan. I've been listening to your performances for several hours now, All I can say is : awesome :)

And I wanted to tell you, if you like music like this one, you should check out the OST of the manga "Fairy Tail". You might find something interesting ;)

[saybaksasuke]

[FoReal100]

When I learn violin I will learn this... :P

[VicMignognaAnimeFan]

[icecream2822]

Oh God ... whenever I play high notes, it sounds like a bird dying.... but when you play it.... it sounds like a goddess decending from the sky! Just Wonderful!

[icecream2822]

Oh God ... whenever I play high notes, it sounds like a bird dying. But when you play, it sounds like goddess decending from the sky....

[Kruez2]

@nathan33445 Fade to Black is another Bleach movie that came out in Japan a few years ago. You can see it subtitled now on Youtube it hasn't released here yet. He's doing the movies ending credits song, Koyoi.

[L4DSoulReaper]

Oh, and it would be totally awesome if you did the Number One song from Bleach on your violin :D I would be most entertained! As well as another song that's one of their openers or closers, like uh, Happy People... or uh... Thank You!! by Home Made Kazoku :D

[L4DSoulReaper]

[StephGala]

[BenChanViolin]

[StephGala]

Ok.. I just sent my old email adress through the Chamberhymns Contact form from another computer since it's still not working on mine... Hope you'll fix this soon!

[StephGala]

I'm not entirely sure whether you actually got the mail I sent you through chamberhymns, but either way, the problem is now fixed!! and the web is working great on my computer again!!!!=)

[DaniMart2005]

It's called: :Fade To Black: I Call Your Name OR Good Bye Rukia" From the Anime called Bleach! It has 2 names because of the Japanese to English translations.

Thank you soo much Ben Chan for the upload! I love Bleach! Can your do more Bleach Themes PLEASE!!!

[rikufanboy]

Dear Ben, I am sorry to bring that to you, but, could you please bring more instructions that are suited for European crowds as well? Not all of us are using the same noting and chord methods as you are. Thanks, Adam.

[TurnT0Ice]

10th comment!

[TurnT0Ice]

wow

[Kyenard]

8th comment :3 Amazing how u make it look sweet n easy :3 Truly Talented :D

[xyzGanz]

It's amazing how easy you make it look. And the sound you get out of that violin is beautiful. If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost you? I have a $2,000 violin right now, and i'm thinking about upgrading it sometime soon. I've played since i was 4, and now i'm 16. Any suggestions?

~ Catherine

[AndromedaAiken]

Go into a violin shop and ask them for the higher end violins. Then try the ones they recommend and see which one suits you best. :) You have to like the violin because it's like an extension of yourself.

[n1bigdaddy]

hey ben, please play the song UNINSTALL from bokurano!

It's really beautiful

[AtiNXx]

sweet :D

[UltimatDigimonFan]

Awesome dude, this also reminds me that Ichigo vs. Grimmjow final battle begins tonight

[altaboy97]

Amazing video you are truly talented

[saiful566]

Thanks! :)
