Vivaldi Winter Very Fast

[TimBatan]

it doesn't sound fast to me, sounds about right

[Pastrecord77]

@TimBatan ...yes..it sounds in a right way....

[MrEllingson123]

The soloist did pretty good, but the rest of the orchestra sounded Horrible!!!!!, This song is meant to be played in a small sized orchestra with only 1 to 2 cellos and bases and around 4 to 5 violins. Think about your situation before you choose a piece that is out of the league of 60% of your oversized orchestra.

[shakebansari]

average



[chrisfball12]

This is the sound Chuck Norris makes when he snores.

[musikpinguin]

hmmmmm....

[teamjuano]

Yeah terrible acoustics....but can u really blame them I think this is a HS orchestra.......still good!!!!!...and great solo

[xerocytesteve]

It was painful to listen to this. Absolutely Terrible acoustics.

No doubt well performed but the richness and full bodied sound of this classic was missing.

[jacquibeanstalk]

you played it normal speed. sure you may have started off sounding fast but you went back to normal tempo

[fukknhoe]

This isnt fast its regular tempo -.-

[deuxailesintheSkye]

@fukknhoe I already played the four season and I heart many time this music and this tempo is a little fast. but the violon is very good! (sorry for my english i'm french^^)

[trngdnh]

I don't know wether I should like this video as a comedy or dislike it because of how horrible it is.

[sonianoviango]

its all mushed into one song u can't hear each part cause its all one thing and u can't really show the love for each part

[ArissaLee]

How can someone dislike this? The people who disliked this were clearly jealous of his talent.

[June061944DDay]

Marvelous!

[XXXPopeBenedictXVI]

So many shtiy comments by people who would eat mud to play as well as this kid at his age.

[ssw166]

Umm, this is the normal speed. But the orchestra is not good, and the soloist goes off key several times. Make that a lot of times.

[ss6808]

This is the normal speed )))

[lotsathoughts]

For his age - superb.

[strudel89]

This is what happens when you get a boomlike 16 year old to play virtuoso movements

[djmbenga4tw]

on second thought the soloist is somewhat shitty too...

[djmbenga4tw]

this sounds like a train about to mow over someone, excluding the soloist...

[supergiet]

Oh my goth!

I want my money back!

What happend to practicing?

Kill it with fire!

Vivaldi once got a thorn in his ear that pierced his drum....It did not hurt as much as this I tell you!

If you are sick you should not come to work!

tearing iron sounds better.

[casimuir]

3:12 forever_alone.jpg, far left.

[joepro941]

next yo yo ma

[trillerrer]

porqueria de video no se por que la pasasn como ver fast, si no es la granh cosa, es u aficionado mas chafisiimo desmde mexico chafa

[israellu]

Garrafal...

[chrishan43168]

Brilliant performance as a school orchestra!! Like it a lot!! But not really fast, slightly fast..... GREAT!

[ellis12241]

They aren't a musical school. They're a grammar school.

[marclert1204]

feel sorry for that lonely guy at @ 3:15 sitting by himself

[mvembathegriot]

THEY'RE JUST KIDS DAMNIT!!!!

[ilovwinning]

Where the fuck was the orchestra at my grammar school?

[kieliopas]

That's very good for an school orchestra. They're just kids. I'd like to hear and see a little more emotion. Now they looked and sounded like some had forced them to play. "Okay, I'm just gonna play this one piece if I have to."

[drinkmouse]

I'm like Christ, I must teach them the errors of their playing.

[drinkmouse]

No offense but these guys are not playing the music correctly. It hurts my brain.

[drinkmouse]

Oh god.. I'm feeling sick....... 

[damonmaster999]

Its fast compare to piano but this is just a normal speed :) i think it will be better if other violinists on the back played little bit slowly. :) good performance though :)

[warjikin]

That was fast?



[Wchawd27]

The whole piece feel a little unnecessarily rushed, even though this piece is meant to be fast... the solos are superb! Not too shabby!

[thraveragehumanbeing]

For the guy doing the solo, his form and technique could use some work....

[Mthement]

The random guy in the background at 1:27 saying "Holy f***.... f***"

<3

[McRickyDm]

this man have a nice future

[MrTuncer1]

kötü

[jmomcilo]

Sorry to say, but chamber ensemble is terrible, nobody can play correctly with this kind of unstable and poor rhythmic support, but of course they are still kids. It was bravery to choose this piece.

[PaigeMDawkins]

@pegasusjourney THIS IS A SCHOOL get over it, he's not Nigel kennedy but not many people are!! It's fantastic, for such complex music he was on fire!

[pegasusjourney]

Honestly, whoever posted this video is clearly related to this kid.Look at his face,he is not feeling the music AT ALL! As a matter of fact, nobody there feels the music, they are rookies reading notes. Nigel Kennedy FEELS the music, no wait, HE MAKES LOVE TO THE MUSIC. Rhubarb8472, I am sorry but if you want to post of a video of a friend or relative don't use others' names to get hits. PS. I am in no way related to Nigel Kennedy (I wish). Long way to go for our australian friend...

[kekoatkd1]

is this a high school?

[chanlongching666]

sorry this is the normal speed for this song maybe a little slow already

[animerulez78628]

They Didn't Put In ANY Cresendos Or Decresendos. Jesus. Who Do They Think They Are. They Didn't Do Piano, Pianissimo, Etc. Etc. They Just... Played -____-

[WinstonBarlowViolin]

its normal tempo... out of tune... follow the conductor!

[VotreCauchemar]

I wouldn't say "very fast", instead I'd say "Presto". Anyways, I believe your perception is wrong. This should be named "Allegro".

[memocarranco]

I believe some comments are too suppressive, devalue the great performance and demerits of these guys, sounds great CONGRATULATIONS!

[KingMickeyKingdom]

the primary violinist had some few flats and sharps and yes, loud, not together, and badly out of tone, (not making it very dramatic) just saying haha.

[Gsus665]

I am not a violin player but a pianist, so may i don´t have the ear for those instruments...but i think this is very good ! don´t understand what you can say against it....this is not like "oh there is an instrument, i would say i start with vivaldi" this are years of hard work, and those musicians don´t look like they earn britney spears sort of money with it...i guess this was an amazing performance from all of them...but :) it´s not faster than it should be..listen to joshua bell !

[omoshiroidayo]

doubebass is too loud

[XXXPopeBenedictXVI]

@omoshiroidayo Do better you prick.

[omoshiroidayo]

@XXXPopeBenedictXVI hehe fuck you asshole. i bet you no listen classical music and never had an instrument in your hands

[XXXPopeBenedictXVI]

@omoshiroidayo Me no wristen? Actually I listen to little else. You're one of these cowardly assholes who hide there channel. By your use of English I'm guessing you're short and yellow, hehe.

[omoshiroidayo]

@XXXPopeBenedictXVI i'm suorry but i dont understand a word. wristen? and you listen too less hee???? i'm german, so im white (?) and i actually dont hide my channel id ont even know how 2 do that

[80shanna]

it's very beautiful O.o

[1m2sm4rt4u]

it's not about how fast you can play it...that completely destroys the performance...

but the orchestra completely fails compared to the soloist

[piip4]

pfff, I can do that with a match and a shoelace. I can play all the elements by myself, simultaneously, no errors, in dolby surround and HD.

[chelsdaviesd]

got to put this on my littlest pet shop rapunzle

[Luvotomy24]

what's so fast about this ?

[carterupm]

Sounds good and hes obviously talented but where is the emotion, where is the passion? Hes holding back, let it all out

[michaeijd]

I can't believe they're in tone so well. However tempo was a bit weird.

[ct20000]

It is amazing indeed for a school. Very good!

[ronansmusic1]

How about some credit to all concerned? Excellent orchestra and soloist from a school!

[bel9pu99smilesofTh]

oh wow is good

[lijpo12345]

Ok, he is good. But David gerret is better

[tetsero]

umm fast? lol they missed notes (especially in the beginning) and he was kind of average for that song xD

[unfoldingart]

Cut them some slack. The orchestra was only slightly behind the soloist. It's not like they were three of four bars behind him...

[TchaikovskyFDR]

The violionist is perfect, but the orchestra needed to be softer

[greenleaf4958]

He needs to use his wrist more, it's easy to tighten up during a performance, I would be VERY nervous but still way too much arm movement

[FaxMachinez]

The most intelligent and heralded critics in the world have to be the genius that is someone who comments on a YouTube video, so I applaud you for your genius review of this video and cannot wait until I can see more critics that have nothing get by them, such as the critics that saw the fault of these 12 year old kids being too loud and out of tune.

[Castukki]

MMM, yep, it sound a little out of tune... But the soloist is great!!

[omoshiroidayo]

normal speed...

[mlgOv3rturn]

this is way too sloppy and out of tune! :(

[s0012823]

A lot of bad strikes, but really good at this speed for a school band!

[RichoKid98]

Hey Guys! He is my cousin!!!! He is sooooo cool! But he is like 18 now

[rkmte]

bien joué garçon!!

[amz392]

this is at good speed not too fast and not too slow i've seen faster versions they need more practice but at least they're better than those Wayne and Beiber fans !!

[poltergeist001]

this is not very fast...this is the normal speed

[chengminghei]

@poltergeist001 they are stupid

[LOBBYTHEROBBER]

That is brilliant.

[DetoxDavid]

Can you people get a grip, this is a Grammar School Orchestra and they do a great job. If they were a bunch of professional musicians and you were paying seventy bucks a ticket, then you might have cause to moan. I would have clapped and cheered!

[burnsie440]

Very good but the technique is not as good as Kennedy's....Shame about the acompanyment....they drag him down.

[flagella1337]

slow down a bit, and play each note more perfectly. lots of messed up parts.

[Dr0wCZ]

I don't find it -that- fast >.>

[TigranArakelyan]

PEOPLE! understand one thing its not about how fast you play, this is not 100meter dash, its music! good playing bravo! It can be fast as long as its good and its phrased good, intonation and all that, great playing but Nigel is greatness

[Tadddius]

He IS As Fast As Nijel Kennedy But Not Nearly So Powerful, Maybe It's Because The Band And Accoustics Suck Or He Is Using A Cheap Violin, But NK Performance Has More "Depth" And Techniques.

[TheLeakaChannel]

lovely ruben! i'm your mom's cousin, lisa in los angeles...

your uncle turned me on to this video last year...i'm so impressed

and your grandpa would have been so proud of you! i remember how

much he loved music...

[thevampanezelord]

i hate it when people tune up at the beginning...

[dumplod]

His intonation is off at certain passages.

[henrza]

I miss the harpsichord. It values this piece like no other instrument would.

[NeoNesscom]

its not so fast... please! its the ideal speed.

yes... he plays good, but not very good.

[lornadoak]

WOW how talented is this lad?! He is fantastic.

[Jesssteam]

Oh dear, the solo was good, but the orchestra, it's so off that it causes physical pain here and there.

[yttarts]

@Jesssteam

YOU totally, poor, poor human being.

Get a soul.

[Jesssteam]

@yttarts Uh... excuse me? The orchestra serously is off, a lot to add. And since it looks like school orchestra, I don't think it's all that surprising.

[shikaino21]

the soloist is good, but the orchestra is not...

[mczee2958]

Soloist is okay but the rest of the orchestra is SOOO out of tune it makes me want to cry

[jeanisbean]

wow are they out of tune......no musical movements whatsoever ..forte throughout the whole piece. the soloist was not bad at all.

[migglemunker]

Just because someone can play fast doesn't mean they're very good. The soloist + orchestra are very out of tune and play forte throughout as oppose to interpreting the movement.

[caltrates]

they should look at the conductor for the correct movement.

[natsumehiragi]

It is true that the sololist is a talented man,but their performance as a whole is not so good,I think.

Sorry for my poor English.

From a Japanese teenager.

[natsumehiragi]

the sololist is a talented man,but their performance as a whole is not so good,I think.

Sorry for my poor English.

[sarahxboxbeara]

eww. not a good performance as a whole for any of them.

[1992nuts]

yeah true an bit out of time but still and very good pece of musc !!!!

[sinverb]

ahhahah, wow that was too fast....hahah great performance by the soloist. stupid composer lady! never give a women a mans job!

[ualchemist]

Not so good. Like students and no more. No professionalism is being sensed while they play.

[rybakostis]

loud, not together, but out of tune...

[De34g1e]

Out of tune....check

Unnecessarily Loud....check

not together check....Check, yep ur right.

[i3ish]

Bravo!

[fillmore12321]

wow its fast I wouldnt say very fast but for a kid in grammar school this is very good not to mention everyone else also. I wish i went to that school

[MarMatMal]

shite

[DSACELLIST]

It was awesome! just should have been a better dynamic contrast from the orchestra. the cello section should have came in powerful with a de crescendo then the violas should have done the same along with the 2nds and the 1st to bring out the contrast of that first note and bring out that harmony in the chord! but it was great!

[XnickmindfreakfanX]

hes fast but its not really fast its like 1.50% to 1.75% faster. If it was double speed i would be impressed nice playing though

[mr11]

damn ... didn't want to say this but the con. master is hot ... haha

[bluejubba]

Good violinist but remember the rest of the ban made the song... all good well done xoxox.... plus I was listening to Nigel Kennedy just now and yes he is amazing but the people making previous posts can't do shit themselves but criticize... well done my friend... excellent.. xoxox

[jackie22506]

he is good.!!

[kjman62]

this is a youth orchestra they are wonderfull

[CINEDIGITAL]

very fast?

the tempo is normal

[firepunk]

Prestissimo ?

[inuyome1008]

They were rushing.... the tempo was too fast... and the guy didn't have soul in his playing.... :/ Yeah he could play it quickly, but he was sharp on his notes and just... did not appease to me.

[yelir92]

No your wrong

[maferrara1]

Great job! I would try and find a better accompanying ensemble though, does not help that the string orchestra behind you cannot play with style or in tune...But great work, still continue to work on musicality in the seemingly easy passages.

[Arucardo69]

it's a litte difference between You and Kennedy - He don't concentrate on technical side, but plays MUSIC - this tempo was too fast for You, and You concentrate how PLAY not to how play MUSIC

[gold20996]

True, Nigel dominated the entire four seasons.

[trippycrz]

This is a really cool song.. at 1:42 it sound like Telemann Sinfonia

[ViolinistTB]

When I hear Nigel Kennedy's version I get a feeling of "Wow" and this had no feeling and was not entertaining.

[cjh37878]

I have to agree with you on the second part, but I highly disagree on the first. I'm just not a Nigel Kennedy fan.

[freddy639]

your articulation, intonation, and playing in general is very good. may I suggest that you listen to Joshua Bells new recording on this piece to develope your phrasing on the solo parts of the piece. Good Job!!!

[goodkufu]

wow shhitoinochi if you knew anything at all about vivaldi you would know that it was based on a poem and in his era the music style wasnt like this.... although he did do a great job and there is diffenent room for improvement this is not a played at the correct tempo that vivaldi would have perfered

[detrimentalflame]

Vivaldi is one crazy ass composer and Ruben is a kickass violinist. I think that's pretty much self-explanatory.

[junglechameleon]

awesome

[nkliewer]

Well done!

[dmoises]

good perfomance

[squeezelifeDOTca]

Wow thank you for posting this. Amazing and beautiful!

[LadyReginaSmiles]

The pennant says this is a grammer school?

[jgl1277]

BRA-FUCKING-VO!!!!! Art is not dead!!!!!

[Tanjo3]

Completely amazing Ruben!!! Just one suggestion, try keeping your bow straight on the violin. Just a suggestion! Anyways, amazing sound. It sounds like someone running through a blizzard. Fantastic!

[1m2sm4rt4u]

ok he is amazing.

but i think the tempo sort of ruins the feeling of winter. it feels rushed. true, playing it that fast is a real example of skill, but sometimes playing slow and using all the expression holds out in the end.

[shitoinochi]

I disagree, The tempo didn't really change that much at all...I've been studying Vivaldi's work for a few years now, and this video is probably the best example of his work so far!

[J0SIE1]

only one prob....im not there yet :@

love it

josie

[Lonestarry]

A young pearl among violinists - he needs work ..... work...... work....particularly with his bowing technique, but he has a wealth of talent - I'm sure as he ages, his talent will enhance itself. Bless his heart - he did a great job.

[ungracefulbutterfly]

Lol Ruben you are one crazy violinist.

[EveIslay]

hey ruben which performance was this? food wine and jazz??? cus it sounds like ur/my boyfriend as the voice over. ps he says hi!:)

[claire4bear8]

OMG OMG OMG OMG This kid is amazing!!... and to think he is still in school (by the looks of it, its a school concert)!!.. WOW.. breath taking!!.. i Nigel Kennedy is brilliant but he's right, giving him a run for his money!

[carloslaran]

very good. but he is no nigel kennedy. he still has to continue to work hard
