Black Violin "Brandenburg" - Music Video

[joia111094]

I’m 17 & have been playing cello for 6 years.my dream is to play cello in a group like this one day.It would be great to have some professional advice from fellow musicians so I can improve. So if anyone can take a few minutes to check out my videos, I would greatly appreciate it

[magicmonkeywow]

they went to my school XD



[VadgeSleigher]

3:26 - white lady thinks she's about to get jacked up by that negro hahahaha

[yani6382]

Just discovered Black Violin on Pandora, you guys make me want to cry!!! Your music really pulls at my heart strings (pun intended) for someone who listens to both classical and hip hop rnb. Makes me wanna pick up violin again.

[meex87]

Holy crap the middle aged ppl dancing is hilarious.. they're pop hop rocking so awkwardly to that synthetic beat!

[balletdancer12396]

I saw this on PBS kids lol but I fell in love:)

[jacknicklaus99]

I CATERED A WEDDING AND THESE GUYS WERE PLAYING THERE!!!

[thenamesfrancisco]

lol this fuckin sucks

[Chloeluv4]

Myy music class is doin a dance/vedio 2dhis song

I luv dhis shcool

[xsteve4578x]

@Chloeluv4 stay in school and learn to spell

[xaheroforhireusx]

@Chloeluv4  you should switch schools because clearly you're not getting a good education. focus less on dance and "vedio" and more on grammar and spelling.

[gillockb]

I did not enjoy the video, it seemed a bit stereotypical, the music however was amazing. Thank you to the fiddle players.

[simurgh1989]

That being said this is brilliant well done!

[simurgh1989]

A nigger is an ignorant person mr. "kkk192" I'm a white man with Jamaican family. I have a black mother and two black brothers who I love dearly. I take offense not to the word but to how you're using it. You sir are the nigger, due to your lack of understanding in the field of music and vocabulary.

[eborden22]

this was in my dance recital... but not my dance! :( i luv it!

[ernstl]

That was awesome. They were killing it. Loved the fusion of classical with hip hop

[DannyB355]

yo know wot sound fucking excilent, but yet again you have to fuck it up by being racist taking the piss. black twats

[Pynkerbella]

Thumbs up if you came here because you saw them on Angelina Ballerina.

[Braeden123698745]

Whats the ending song?

[LovlyDarkBeauty]

the viola player is my insparation i can't wait to see them in concert

[OrryBoy]

they should not sell violins to black people.... vivaldi must be petrified

[charishxoxo]

@OrryBoy are you serious

[Smooow1]

@TheKKK192 lol so play repeated loop of minor scale, and make a music like that u.u

[MrMuzical17]

I love it. It is the evolution of music and the mixture of two different genre into one despite the differences in them. It is a not a bad thing at all. It is actually very interesting seeing them mix and sound as good as it does.

Also to the racist, if you can't enjoy the music because it is done by other of another race. Why the hell are you here? Seriously you're an eyesore. Also, I'm black and in college..I guess the drug money really helped out (lol). But seriously, shut up and get out...

[PhantomEagle454]

@TheKKK192 Lol people think I'm good just because I can play R&B songs. People even made me a facebook page in my school, titled That Asian Kid Who's Always playing Hip Hop on his Violin In the Hallway.

[supernannera]

If you guys think there horrible or a disgrace to this instrument then I'd like to see you pick a that instrument up and play like they do and no its not to "ghetto" have you heard other violin players play they sound just like this put they don't have the kick to the beat like they do so you know black violin you keep playing your amazing.

[PhantomEagle454]

@TheKKK192 Drug dealers they may be, they play better than I can, and I've been playing for 12 years since 4

[MsTeddigrams]

I play Viola. And this video made. My. Life. Lovee it!

[PhantomEagle454]

@TheKKK192 When it comes to violin, there are no "niggers". Just people who make music and the people who don't.

[shaniyaz007]

I don't get it. The track sounds like a sad tune and people started dancing. Anyway, the track is awesome. Thanks Black Violin.

[csmy1001]

[hotkoyoto]

go old white lady go go go br-break-break down

[DeoBasha]

I'm not a fan rap and i'm picky about hip hop. My sister helped confirm my hatred for most rap. I fucking love classical music. BUT THIS....this song... I heard it. A rap. A poetry. A UNIFICATION OF SOUL AND WORDS! The lyrics spoke to me. They moved me. I heard the words and it's only a shame i do not know what they were! BEAUTIFUL!

[Writermist]

wow... that's badass... but I don't like the DJ part. :(

[NICKHAL]

PLEAZE PUT SOME RAP ONE IT ... ITS PERFECTTTTTT

[SmileyKat1234]

[mitheodoranis]

It's Briliant :X



[josue285]

Black Violin: No I don't!

[Ezwex]

It's awesome to see some of the "not-Hip hop" people likng this stuff, and some are like: "What the heck."

Great!

[SuperCrazymelon]

i love this ive been looking for it

[WIERDOMAN123321]

it kinda annoys me how the same little pattern is played over and over so much. even if it is catchy, its played too much.

[adidasgirl16]

White peeps sitting in the chairs are like WTF IS GOIN ON!!

[ThePookkii]

I went to MPA this year. Their music teacher was our judge. Talk about intimidating. 

[ArhkXi]

I laugh at people who always try to defame a certain genre of music, all they're doing is decisively choosing not to like something beforehand, no matter if they actually like the melody & message according to the individual song, in order to perpetuate some sort of image about themselves that no one actually cares about.

[EpikChild]

This is so freaking cool.I just heard about these guys a few minutes ago and I'm already an instant fan.

[Legend8762]

damn and i just saw them in the orpheum in Memphis,TN with my family and girlfriend.They have to be the greatest violinists and dj:D omfg!!!

[1jalenjada]

@Legend8762 IKR!!!!I went thier to everybody was dancing and at the end they had a little battle.

[Legend8762]

@1jalenjada that is wat it is all about, but them challenging each other was a part of their play.did u enjoy it ?hahaha of course u did right!!!! :D

[1jalenjada]

@Legend8762 I really did enjoy at first I thought it was going to be boring but they suprised us!!!!!!!!

[Legend8762]

@1jalenjada you 2

[matrix420haha]

this is the most fucking coolest performance that i have ever heard... i always knew that classical music and hip hop went hand in hand, i am glad that someone know can show that.

[YankeeAirPirate]

Really tired of that "Rescuing Whitey from his stodgy, soulless Whiteness" theme. Loved the music, disgusted by the video. Some real and serious talent here; too bad they went for the cheap shot.

[lbdz5204]

Cool, they memorized about 2 sections of brandenburg and put hip-hop beats in the background.. so innovative..

[knathanstein]

@lbdz5204 it's not the most innovative, BUT it's more innovative than Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, etc. And they're legit violinists. O, and they're making money playing violin over sweet hip hop beats.

[geetarxist]

awesome

[MAYEST1203]

i love black violin omg i never liked there kinda songs till i heard this

[laurawox22]

OMG I LOVE THIS SONG!! this is the song that my class is dancing to for our performance! LOVE IT!!!!

[claudine149]

interesante propuesta

[pearlharbor33]

so awsome went to see them on a field trip today

[VilleHermanniValo100]

Love them!

[MrEvandroMaximo]

this song took my breath away...

[dieudonneMC]

Interesting!

[seanmcclure]

I love how all white people in these videos are shown to be stuffy pricks. Stereotypes never die. That being said I watched this like 5 times. Awesome music.

[jrrkiller]

if you think this is cool watch 300 Violin orchestra

[ikikage99]

Lol at the old people in teh front being like "....DAFUCK?"

[goflyersgo1]

i saw these guys for a field trip in grade 6 amazing

[jaceracer9aar]

[SupernovaPrincess]

They are so awesome our school took a field trip to see them today!!! They rock!!!:)

[SupernovaPrincess]

they are so awesome our took a field trip to see them today!!!! they're amazing!!!! :)

[TalentedOrangeTv]

I like this unique sense of style they had. And I'm not much of a rap/hip-hop listener myself but I bet this would sound better with some rapping going on, and good rapping at that, not just the stupid pop mixed rappers.

[ad007]

lol.

[DJMarcO138]

This is positively BRILLIANT!!!!!!!! So awesome, I don't even know what to say.

[2010msustudent]

This is my ring tone! I love sprint thanks!

[bombingtheholyland]

Coolest band to ever be featured on PBS.

[Allycat101010]

Wow, this is one catchy song. I think it's one my favorites from them now.

[mblove22]

i know another version except on viola

[famupiccolo92]

Okay....These brothers ROCKED THIS!!!!

[welltemperedpianist]

*barf barf*

[BringinSexyBach]

excellent concept, and certainly catchy, but not very creative in its execution, actually. they just put the melody in minor and had the viola play chords on the off-beats. that said, it's more of a viola solo than you'd ever find in Bach normally lol but that's not necessarily a bad thing. show some viola love!

[RapMetalKing]

Thats why i luv hip hop it  can merge with any music element

[GigaWattDiddy]

I SAW THEM AT THE NJ PAC YESTERDAY

[heysayjump0414]

i just saw the blck violin performace on stage today!!

[jitzk1]

[Reapacide]

[FaithSama]

I would like it better with out the 'break down' thing voice over. I like the tempo and sound otherwise. :) Neat.

[mina8596]

That was a very beautiful version of Brandenburg :)

[TheLovekitty95]

xD Remiix De Bach (:

[sebsalomon1080]

@JackTheFossilMan no it is not a disgrace. it is call evolution you ignorant!

[jstnneeley]

@sebsalomon1080 no its not evolution. It is called fucking kickass sweet muthafuckin badass violin greatness you ignorant! :P

[S0u11ess]

@sebsalomon1080

I have to agree with Jack, this is a discrace. This isn't "evolution" its the same mashup bullshit that has been goin on since the end of the 90's when music stopped being creative.

[powell1106]

@S0u11ess creative ??? you sir havebt heard dubstep wether or not u like it its creative and beutiful

[S0u11ess]

@powell1106 lol, good one.

[Tundra1man1]

[Kellberto]

They're better musicians than this....

[Eristhenes]

Absolutely splendid to form such a nexus between cultures!!!!

[husseinmohy]

[supermaddie98]

[supermaddie98]

last nite the black violin did a special concert that only a few people knew about i didnt go but heard this song on my violin teachers CD

[jaboii2tall]

dude i would luv to see nuttin but stringz play with these ppl=D that would be epic!!!

[msaladyduke]

that picture at the begin' was 2 pretty

[danifel15]

muy buenisima esa canion no la dejo de escuchar exelente!!

[UltimaRoTaD]

The solos were okay, the reoccurring motif was... too reoccurring. It became the only thing in the song, with no melody or harmony.

[Oggens]

shit!!!

[2065holy]

@Oggens AWESOME!

[jennyandcarla]

omg this is the wayim goig to sound im learning that song

[brittspark]

they are plain amazing..if you dont like them your either deaf, racist, or need to find a different group to listen to cuz this isnt for everyone, though most could say their good!

[biology1234]

yeah this is sterio typing people... black and white... i think its a little cheezy and dumb. i love the music dont get me wrong, but the video is insulting.

[shivphoria2010]

@DaTboyMaRv - my critique comes from a place of love. The music was so wonderful, I caught them playing on some kids TV show. It was a simple presentation, I was moved. I like the music and the musicians. People are always striving to do better, and I think whoever directed their music video could have done better by these very good and very original musicians. Why settle for mediocrity?

[zce813]

how dose someone not like this I wish I could play like this

[shivphoria2010]

The music is excellent but this video is offensive and cheesy. Especially the ending where the white lady is looking for her purse and the black dude returns it - I mean, come on, are we still so backward that we are shocked that the guy would return it? Really? You're an excellent group, but the white-uptight-people loosening up and everyone partying is an old cliche. Your music is better than that, you can do better than that. Please let the music speak for itself.

[DaTbOyMaRv]

@shivphoria2010 stop takin shit so seriously. its music. not human rights or politics. be easy

[tprimex2000]

@shivphoria2010 Offensive to who?

[shivphoria2010]

@tprimex2000 - offensive to me as a human being who doesn't stereotype people. Showing the black man returning the purse as the conclusion of the video - that's offensive because of what it implies. Like "wow, he gave the purse back - what a shocker! " or "ooh, look, black and white people getting along - dancing together - that's so craaaazy"....well, maybe I'm just lucky living in San Francisco where people all blend together a lot more, maybe this is set in the South or something.....

[djshow2me]

@shivphoria2010 or maybe ur just gay for living in san francisco where all the queers go...

[djshow2me]

@shivphoria2010 or maybe ur just gay for living in san francisco where all the queers go...and btw the ending shows COUNTER STEROTYPE!! saying black people in hiphop arent all ruthless gangsters

[tprimex2000]

@shivphoria2010 You'd have to be blind to realize that race/class wars are ever present. Not everyone lives in hipsterville.

[tigresuave11]

Do these folks have a page on you tube? Skills!!!

[armenianply]

the looks on the other peoples faces are priceless.

[Mortis]

Very well done!

[saravip1988]

I love this Melody ! ! ! ! !
