Where did you get the sheet music for this? I can figure out the first part by ear, but not the second o.0 Amazing job by the way! Are you a professional?
lucky for you your neighbors , don't mind for you playing the violin on the roof .you sure do a very good job playing the violin solo for ''fiddler on the roof''
I'd give Isaac Stern's versionof this piece 100/100.
I'd give you 99.99975/100 as I have loved and always listened to Stern's version for 38 years. With a rendition like this one, neighbours would even offer you their daughters for marriage:-))
I had a a kind of "premonition" that this was going to be something crazy. I wasn't dissappointed ! But what is it all about ? Who composed it ? De Man himself, Mr. Pigannini ? He looked so grim though
There was a teacher tell me that his student's playing is fine but what I hear is that the student's playing was out of accuracy....So I think he lied / . \
yeah :P you just need a bit of experience i suppose..
and when i say good technique i mean knowing the right pressure on the bow, the position of the bow in relation to the bridge, addition of vibrato (used at the appropriate speed for the piece) etc. :3
Beautiful man i always wished i had learned violin instead of trumpet... dont get me wrong i like it but i just love the way a violin sounds awesome work ill be listening to this more offten
I love your playing!! I was looking at Klezmer music originally, I was watching some of the Klezmatics and then the video of Itzhak Perlman playing a duet with Telly from Sesame Street and came upon your video, I guess through the catchy title. You're so good! :)
first you have to learn the music, then you have to practice the music. then you have to review it so you dont loose it. then you have to find somebody who actually knows how to use a darn camera. then you have to prepare yourself spiritually to climb out on a slanted roof with maybe 35-40 ft drop. then convince the camera person to do the same thing. boy it sure is a hassle playing the violin. thanks so much for all your dedication and sharing your efforts with all of us. your a great player!
Several main themes from the popular Fidder on the Roof played in succession, from the sounds of it. Get a score of the musical and you're well on your way.
I think this sounds really truley amazing!! great job! and also, just something i noticed, is your bow longer then a normal one? it seems when you play the whole notes that the bow seems to be longer.
Wow. When are you playing in Portland? Maybe I'll buy your neighbors house in SF if you play up there on your roof often so I don't need to buy concert tickets!
to pll who think that it's a good idea to add other ppl in the video so it would sound better... do you guys really think that a whole orchestra would fit on one guy's roof???
done with the sarcasm, i think this was played very well and i think it would take me practicing every minute for the rest of my life to play that good... :)
WOWEEEE!!!! OK... so i am SOOOOO going on my roof later so i can say I played Fiddler on the roof... on the roof..... (i'll never say i did it that well though... you ROCK) (lets all i hope i dont break something!
just excellent, no awkward slides, it was the most beautiful violin playing that i have ever heard, i play and you really give me inspiration, thankyou for playing so beautifully
how long have you been playing for?
I wish you weren't in America but Australia. can you speak to your webcam and put it on please plaese
beutifal, wish i was standing next to you so i could here it live, you nailed the later half with so much emotion that i think you might have a bit o jew in you
oh yea? you see this shit? huh? lemme see you do better. No wait- nevermind- don't get up - i don't want you to lose any weight sitting at the computer all day wondering why you're actually alive. Kinda harsh- no not really.
holy....shit. I have to play this for my school musical this year..i'm the fiddler...er....yea---- think you can critique me? I'm serious. I'm sending you a friend request. Oh...dammit. Hahah WISH ME LUCK PEOPLE!! Oustanding Sir.
Ok i am in compleate awe! I was just in that play and as the fiddler too, and if i could play like that i think the play would have been sooo much better. I APPLAUD YOU!
