Chuck Norris won a guitar battle with a violin

[HUSKY5757]

@pagudpudboy10 You can now shut the f**k up with those lame jokes you fucking fuck faced fucking fuck fucker

[pagudpudboy10]

@HUSKY5757 Violin strings are made of strands of Chuck Norris' beard

[pagudpudboy10]

@HUSKY5757 Chuck Norris can play the violin solo in 'Four Seasons' on the French Horn, at full tempo.

[ohverrmynd]

why have i never heard of this guy before?!

[hellchan13]

He is absolutely sensational!!

[Ms17Dixie]

Most exquisite version of this song I've ever heard.

[technocrash09]

This would have sounded better without the piano (and that is coming from a piano player!). The playing was good but the audio seemed over the top a little. The violin sounded sweet. I wonder what instrument he uses. I know Janine Jansen plays an early Strad (1727 I think) and it sounds beautiful...and so does this one!

[missElle121]

This guy can play anything so efortlessly, and yet with so much passion... Always.

[zeagle79]

I'm learning this, and will be using your bowings as the 'perfect' example!!!

[Fordrasyle]

@zeagle79 I'm learning it too! :D

[dfsautchuk]

PERFECT! I love it!!!

[WaterLikey]

gggodd

[WaterLikey]

omg , i have to watch this everyday

[WaterLikey]

this is the best version of meditation on youtbe , dont u think?

[Evolforetsam]

Beautiful, I was having a shitty day until I saw this. Such a warming and amazing song and performance!

[WaterLikey]

Perfect bowing! But I personaly think he played it too soft, not passional enough.

[willysy100]

This is a superb performance. Bravo

[sneaklyfox]

Best performance of this piece I have seen on youtube so far. You capture the tone of "Meditation" very well with perfect balance between being reflective and passionate.

[MrBertye]

沉思！！！！拉得真好！

[ohnoes300c]

One of my fav songs. One time in the city a busker was playing this perfectly and everyone was walking past not even noticing how frikken pro he was.

[shelina71]

Excellent!

[saralphie]

A PLEASURE TO LISTEN TO

[Joe31959]

Perfect!!!!!

[HandwhistlerBen]

Extraordinary interpretation!!

[skimrn1]

I have known this dude since when he was a teenager, used to see him at church, an old friend of mine.

He's truly dedicated giving everything to be a violinist.

I just recently found out that he made it to the New York Philharmonic after graduating Julliard School.

Congratulations Joo Young! I am truly proud of you!

Sincerely,

S. Kim

[dializ19]

ke buen video....felicidades!!!

[genuineparticle]

BUT love the emotion ... it makes this piece interesting

[genuineparticle]

and his D on the A string is a little dead :(

[McSplat]

sarah chang plays it better

[genuineparticle]

her sound is edited ... and he's working with a worst sound system ... this is more real . emotional ... and actually sounds like a violin ... but intonation is off a bit (especially F#) ... but he's only human

[elsluc]

simply beautiful

[VIkIB97]

BRAVO!!!!!

[DancingTillIDie]

Wow - wow.

[filfanmarfot]

divine !

[patcalisura]

I consider you as Asia's king of Violinists...supreme individual.... with a godlike touch and energy!!!!!how much I adore you as well....

[tangmb56]

Most talented violin player that I adore!

Czardas, Hungarian Dance No. 4, Zigeunerweisen Op.20, and this Meditation are all excellently played through his hands.

[thata82]

wow you're wonderful! this song is the reason why my name is Thais and hearing you play it makes me glad that's my name! keep it up! great job!

[nachoaddict]

why is he so clean?!!?!?! It frustrates me to be that clean lol

[nachoaddict]

Also, look at 4:46 of the video of him playing Czardas by Vittorio Monti. Just too clean!!!! Very good violin player!

[nachoaddict]

you got a problem with americans???No, why dont you shut up? Its people like you who post retarded comments like that without even knowing a person that infuriate me. I think that you don't understand anything about respect. idiot

[otnpabka]

I'm not even American and I still agree with nachoaddict!

[nachoaddict]

wow man stop acting so immature i mean you started this entire thing. plus you spelled obama wrong its OBAMA!!!!!

And also, I don't think I've said anything about being better than the rest of the world. Only an idiot like you would assume something like that. so leave me alone and learn some manners and some stuff about respect.

[fernal2007]

I mean,Barack Obama,of course,hehehehehe,all the world knows about this,hauhauhauhauahuahauhau...­.....

[nachoaddict]

fine man. So then are we cool now?

[czimon]

[AznsCanSingg]

this is the best of all the ones i've seen!

w0ot! lol

[jbjbjb4evr]

ahmzing!

[nothingbutflamenco]

Yes I am a lover of flamenco but Meditation has always been my fav violin piece. Great interpretation and mastery of the violin! OLE.  some things are much too beautiful to not leave without a comment.

[OHHHHWOWWWW]

Beautiful interpretation.

[videoposter1410]
