Minuet 2, J.S. Bach, Suzuki 1/14

[mysterio3294]

I could play this better in 5th grade, I miss playing now :(

[truebeatlesfan8]

your playing it way too fast :(

[fleite34]

The sound was not bad actually and I think you have the skill to play it. But like it was said you don't keep you bow straight and I think is because your wrist is not working like it should, and it doesn't look nice to see you jumping on the finger board like you did several times. But good performance anyway, I'm trying this one and its difficult for a beginner like me ;-)

[piscis133]

you should've played it slower...

[Naatitax]

toca el violin super rapido el lokooo



[cristanq]

@TSOfan1352 The comment below was actually me commenting; I was accidentally in my son's youtube account. Hope you are still able to read it.

[catzrulez435]

sounds great. i just started playing that. im not very good.problably cuz im a kid.:(

[cooper1056]

You have to Slow down, it sounds bad because your rushing it. try again. : (

[rodrigolc2]

com a experiência que tenho em música e especialmente em violino, não gostei, pois acho que além de haver muitos ruídos na música, o arco dele está descontrolado, isso é, não consegue se manter reto em uma só direção.

[eulianotee]

how long have you been playing when you recorded this?

[saske212]

lo tocas como si las corcheas fueran semicorcheas y como si las negras fueran corcheas ¬¬

[lkjujh11]

i play better than u and im only a kid

[fvfernandovera]

@lkjujh11 But you are not humble if you say this. And that is worse. See yourself first everybody has something to do to be better including you. I think that he plays wonderful becuase he seems to enjoy what is doing. And what is better is that he shares something good. World would be different if we play music everywhere.

[roxy1999able]

wow its sooo kwl

[isabeltapiacolun]

esa misma tengo k tocar en el colegio!!!!

copion!

es broma :)

tocas demasiado rapiado

[MyKing292]

I think it sounds better fast actually.

[221Dw]

Bit fast

[EmilyArtsy161]

Smile :) You look too focused :P

[ponyxtwilightx]

my brother is playing that. only not fast. he`s only 6.

[cyruswangshowmaker]

u might want to work with the bow.

[unknownundiscovered]

Wow! You have super extra fast fingers. WOW!! Amazed and in awe.

[viomandg]

take it SLOWer



[Kakaiada21]

Wow thanks for this it's anice tip!

[peaceout3210]

i started suzuki violin at 4 and i learned this song very well. now its been about 2 years since i have played my violin so right now, i kno nothing. ur bow is kind of sliding across ur

[kippew5000]

I can play this and I'm nine.

[bajsnejtack9]

hey in 0:16 you used your 4th finger instead of open string on E ,, but.. isnt is slightly lower than how it should sound like..??

but i have no idea i just start violin for 4 month now, and im playing this piece currently :)

jealous!

[ryokoryuen]

It is a tricky piece.

How did you manage to play it smoothly?

Do you have to play it slowly first before playing it at the correct tempo or something?

[marycha1001]

easy for me three years and play violin at school and normal and it's easy for me and I am 11 years !!!!( wow)

[peaceout3210]

@marycha1001 show off

[5288mar]

woww!!!.... me encanto..! .. es una de las melodias q más me gusta en violin y de

Minuet... xD

[thay646]

beatiful beatiful!

[whatitdooshawdy]

be careful with the bow and you dont have to vibrato on every note

[DianneVODEViolin]

actually ,its not difficult you just need to memorize the piece ,the patterns the scaling ,and there you can play without looking at the piece

[theklavier1912]

i like it, i play this at my piano.. and i really like this song

beautiful..!!!!!

[muskurtic]

you are good. it is exceptional. and when you really get the hang of it this piece will become a favourite.

[jehovahuponyou]

My bow once slipped and poked a Cape Buffalo in the ass - he charged my camp and killed killed five folks, including myself - YES, do be careful with your bow!

[pandaiology]

co za asy...

[gherkin1994]

FAVORITE EVER <3

[simonrock9]

you are very good but you keep hitting the other strings when you play notes because your bow slides off. i have the same problem too so don't feel all bad. you are a wonderful violinist.

[isspek]

schön

[Sandman515]

I have trouble with the bow, too.

[fdssgfd]

Odd, when my bowing is crooked, even in the slightest, it squeeks like crazy!

[angie8121]

beautiful

[6Dahlia6]

good job. but it's too fast..

[AznKID162]

@6Dahlia6 no its not its supposed to be like that

[ashlynn12434gymnast]

hahaha :) after playing violin i thought i was all that till i heard you..:P yah beast

[clydellemayol]

it' s kinda hard but i'll try it, :) thanks a lot for the help

[XxKeybladeKairixX]

I do the bow thing too.. With my viola haha :)

[menegatt94]

Be careful with the bow²

[voltiolord57123]

you go to fast dude, bach is something mroe smooth, relaxing still nice try :D

[gostate181]

i watched this viedo about 46 times and jsut noticed that you were taking the bow to the fingerboard.you have a problem like me when i play this song!but you helped me a lot with you playing this song!

[dancerfreak27]

be careful, ur bow goes to the fingerboard a lot. but u are really good!! i started taking lessons 10 weeks ago :)

[potterfan9198]

i play this piece, and i agree that you should slow down just a bit. other than that it was good

[ThePainster1]

@potterfan9198 thnk u i not the only one!

[ZZgS]

ok, im gonna be honest. this song sounds best on the cello. :P

thumbs up if u agree

[ThePainster1]

wrk on bow control and if u actually slow down a little and not try to show off with ur speed then it would be a whole hell of a lot better! i was playing just as fast as u with u and my parents were in my room when i was and they said i sounded better than u! and so did my friend! so i find this sad

[Hotstuff5374]

@ThePainster1 Shut up you don't need to be rude

[ThePainster1]

@Hotstuff5374 shut up u dont need to b such a bitch! in case u neva learned, i have the right of free speech! so shut the hell up cuz i wasnt tlkin to u!

[mygoatisdead]

@ThePainster1

You are such an arrogant conceited little boy, the only reason you should get a pass is that you are actually a little boy, lucky you.

[ThePainster1]

@mygoatisdead ya wanna know the funny thing??? I A EFFING GIRL!!!! ha i win

[keeksta16]

You have the same problem as me. You bow to close to the fingerboard and so you hit other strings as you change over them. I know it's really hard but that's probably something you should work on.

[handymannyyy]

work on your bow control and intonation...

[04katrinaalyssa]

im not really good at reading but im great at hearing the music and copying so thx :D

[Staytrue4244]

rushed. and bow is off. besides that it was great. .... i have to do this for a solo. so thanks. this was very useful. good job.

[pearlfan14]

slow down, ok?

[crazytalented9710]

you are very excellent et intelligent

[unicornpowered]

No toca bien! FALLA EN TECNICA, de quien o donde haya aprendido... algo falló, no tiene buena técnica. Alguién debió de pararle ese brazo izquierdo antes de seguir neciamente tocando con malos habitos, hacerle entender y centrarse en eso.

El resultado terminó siendo doloroso

[Pickdivision]

I have that piece on my cello. That's a very good Minuent.

[scoutkelpy]

amazing!!

[Leirbag999sad]

hermano, no podés postear esta cagada, como cuantos tenes, 15? hermano tendrias que ir viendo cosas mas importantes pedaso de NOOB

[MxIxL]

@Leirbag999sad

1.- no creo que te entienda

2.- no crea que tenga 15

3.- toca muy bien

4.- algo mas importante? como que?

[unicornpowered]

@MxIxL NO toca muy bien

@Leirbag999sad dale un respiro. Y no es un tema de edad, tan pensante eres lo sabras.

[MxIxL]

@unicornpowered pues a comparación de muchos toca bien :/ xD

[jellaaay]

isnt this suppose to be played in Andantino?

[Amberpaw11]

nice, but u need more dinamics, and you need to work on your bow posture, otherwise its way better than I can play it. good job.

[Fluffy1144]

when u start the second part its supposed to be piano and then metso forte and then forte. you should add some dynamics, but it sounded really good :)

[Darkartslanz]

dude your tempo is too fast and avoid reaching the fingerboard

[LalaLola161]

ssuchhhh a pretty songg!! (: :P

[totalblond42]

his f (1 on e) is not in the right place...it sounds weird and low 2 my friends u cant forget low 2

[MoniSanko]

Dang, your going to fast! I tried to keep up with you but, you're going tooooooo fast :3

[NeoNesscom]

I mean... you play it very good! because I have seen other videos, and are not good xD ha ha!

[NeoNesscom]

ah ah!!!... I love this minuet! I'm learning this. I love the part of "la, re, re, si, re, re, do..."

good good!

[missdecline]

A few things which needs improvement-

1) this is a minuet, and you're not matching the tempo. Minuets tend to be slower for dancing

2) bow unparallel to bridge

3) you have to play piano when you reach measure 17

[minimistro4]

you dont HAVE to have piano. its sounds fine without it. ya EVERYTHING sounds better with a piano accompaniment, BUT that doesnt mean you need one. and i would know, since i've played the violin AND piano part of this song. so shut up.

[warrockEmo]

ur bow reaches the board. and work on the timing.

[bhombonie]

for me this is the hardest to play....minuet 3 is easier to play..

[Spyrogirl95]

You're telling me... XD I have trouble getting the string changes right.

[snoozwangler]

SO EASY!

[Roses4Faeries]

it sounds soo good when my teacher plays it, im also learning it n hope i can play it as good as u n my teacher

[totalblond42]

great vibrato

[ron08fu]

Ehm, your sound and vibrato is great, but you bowing isn't straight...

^^

And, nice video!

[violinexpert1]

Try not to move your bow around.

[piccupicca]

@MagicalTalesOfWolves "it isn't difficult at all?" are you superman? i'm learning this piece now and I've started to play the violin recently! P.S= I'm italian, and I'm 11; don't look at my mistakes please! ;D

[thedumbonlygetdumber]

well kudos:]

if you're a newbie you're doing fantastic

for you bow arm (which has some crazy thing going on) try practicing in front of a mirror playing long tones (or with your right shoulder against a wall) and make sure your arm DOES NOT MOVE

its all about the elbow wrists and fingers:]

no shoulder!

just helping you out with some critique:]

[thedumbonlygetdumber]

i can give you tip for your arm

when you try to bow like a cellist/bassit (using your upper arm to bow) it makes your bow go all over into some crazy places

try practicing in front of a mirror playing long tones focus on keeping your shoulder from moving and try to keep your bow as straight as possible juts do that for a while every day

you'll get results :]

[ditooy]

im learning this song now, and im 13, i began to learn violin when i was 12, nah u play really good! the first part to me was kind of ok, but the second part was HARD!

[moranclan556]

ok seriously. ur like 25 years old and that was good. but im 12 and i can play it just as good. no joke and u travel with ur bow a lot.

[GothicalSOberhauser]

The bow's supposed to remain as near as possible to the bridge. At least, in this. There are parts where it is just flying everywhere.

Intonation is not very good, but acceptable. Careful with that.

[vtmagicman]

I am working on this song. It's pretty hard.

[perrin26]

Sounds great, there are parts there that should be softer and parts louder. Some of the dynamics aren't there.

[webkinzsims1998]

ok as a person who is working on this song SLOW DOWN ( this is advise other wise it was great) and put the bow closer to the bridge. BUT AWSOME JOB I AM WORKING ON MINUET 3!!!!!:)

[EbonyFaery]

Slow down a little, try pulling the bow with your elbow instead..

[fiddlnbanjo]

this crazy

[pollitaalocada25]

tienes razon artofmymusic tocas violin..??

[AzAzCLASSIC93]

good, but you have to be careful with the bow

[algumaugusto]

Too hard for me.. I'm stuck in the Book 1 Allegro xD

keep the good work \o

[hinano316]

dude, slow down and draw the bow from your elbow :-)

[onliAlchemist]

i MEANT BE xD.

[onliAlchemist]

Me careful with the bow.

[deebee3dDotCom]

Wow - really well done! I'm a rookie mandolin player trying to learn Minuet 2 right now. Listening to your violin, I realize that I have a lot of practice ahead of me. Thanks for posting. I'll be using your YouTube post for audio referene :)

[niceangel623]

oh my gossh! this is amaazin! i remember i started to play this pieve when i was about 9 or 1O.

[weirdper]

due you think that is challenging try it on bass with 1/2, 1,2,and 3 postion

[artofmymusic]

CUIDAAADOOO, donde se te fue el arcooo...!!!!

[quicktimex]

watch out with the bow, it's running all over the place (I have the same problem playing this piece)

[ylimeis21]

You are very good! I wish I could play the violin, and I hope to take it up soon.

Great job, keep at it :)

[JessBrasil29]

not easy :/

[Skull12Candy]

Aha, I have problem's with keeping the bow in place too. :/

Not bad though.

[FreyHey95]

same here :)

[jfabproductions]

im playling this and im 12. i started when i was 11. i catch on easy

[Spiderpug8]

two fast sor me im on no. 3 almost you go a little too

fast

[yankaburi]

cool

[lessure3]

This is to HARD for my level!!=(

[WolvenSakura]

I'm learning that too right now, thought I've been playing for about 6 months, it's challenging but I'm getting the hang of it

[neltonaccount]

Yow..! its better you bend your wrist while in the tip of the Bow..! that does not makes the bow slides near the finger Board.!

Great Playing though..!

[captainclules]

it is an amazing song, very hard too. im still trying to play it, its tough

[emoluvistrueluv]

my question is how long have you been playing? and you seem to be a more middle of the bow to tip player. we have a lot of problems with that in my orchestra. beautiful tone though. could be better if you fixed a few things but quite nice.

[vaderundershorts]

Love Minuet 2... 1 and 3 aren't bad either, but like other's have mentioned your bowing needs to be more perpendicular to the strings and closer to the bridge. Other than that, good wrists, and pinky on the bow.

[arcuesrulez]

i agree with fatfoot ur bowing is out of place its going on to the fingerboard a little

[alechankun]

Hi I play violin tooo I'm learning that minuet =) keep practicing you are doing very well!!!

[girikeren]

cool! how long do you learn violin? =

[SuperCountach]

keep praticing

[rubytrainer]

Does any one else here the kinda quite clicking?

[Coop772]

yes.

[BebeundBobo]

Good.

Once again bow tracking ...perhaps more weight so you get a clearly tone ...

[violingirl78]

your bowing is out of place if you move it closer to the bridge it would sound a lot better

[WesleyDiulay]

Muito Rápido, tem que ser mais Lento, pra sair mais Clássico.

[bigfatfoot]

I think your bowing is quite out of place if I may point out.

[alexamae1000]

hi!! i play violin too. you play very nice!!! congratulations !:P

[elmagodeoss]

it's italian

[likeimachocolateluvr]

i luv this piece

[ssoviolin]

you play it way to fast it was meant to be much slower !

[nennmichtoast]

VIOLAS FOREVER!!!!

[Nassahila428]

This is a violin.

[nennmichtoast]

-.-

i know!

[palishaku]

umm... it is easy ! when i was played it i have 6 years .

but you play very nice and you can do vibrato :)

-a kiss from spain!!

[debbieguerrero1]

real good but isnt it andantino

[EmoViolin]

You rushed a bit and your bow is not strait. Besides that its pretty good

[moonylove16]

nice ;)

[dagmann1]

great job!

[paintisamazing317]

Sweet! I'm learning this on bass right now... but so far its going well! Good job :)

[xxdevilsangelgurlxx]

=/ i can play that pretty well and fast but my tonalization is like crap cuz my bridge was made a little 2 flat :P

[alekkowillow]

nice! im learning that now and i dont think i'll ever get that good. T.T BUT! I will try my best!

[chacopan]

Sweet¡¡¡¡... How can I do vibrato???... please tell me

[rckid0814]

to do vibrato just wiggle your finger up and down slightly

[ILUVNICKJONASAAF]

VERY GOOD I'm doing this for my NYSSMA Solo and all you did wrong was dynamics! AWESOME!

[cattastic1]

i can play this good i leared on my frist try im jsut that good

[zashleyvszanessa]

god!!this piece was llike nightmare for me!!i had only 2 hrs to study this and play it infront of my bandmaster,who was choosing the last violin player for our orchestra.....but in the end i still got it...:D

[gigarobo]

fuck,shit and more fuck i have 6 classes and my teacher want me to play that

[xAngelCaidox]

Too fast =/ , shame; because you play other melodies so good.

[meandbtnd7194]

keep ur elbow up cuz ur bow is going ALL OVER the finger board and thats gonna cause problems with dynamics higher up in playing. but nice vabrato and intonation. try eliminating open strings!

[goaliegurl2008]

bow and bridge, dude! nice... i'm also playing it soon... not as good as you1

[Ryosuke1208]

Good intonation a beat fast but it sounded great nice job!

[dylan123sassone]

playing it at nyssma tommarow, im scared im as good as u ! ur going to fast, this song is like a slow dance(thats what my teacher told me

[winawar12]

you were playing off a pretty fast beat

[XcavationPrelude]

I didnt Hear much Dynamics in this piece, but i did love it!

My first troubles in playing this song was the A string to the E string! i played both strings! ahha gj

[magaly1190]

wow

[nomiwashere]

i love this song. im playing it for a contest tommorow. hope i dont screw up. :P

[DeathByAFlea]

im trying to lean that :D

[GuineaPigPat]

nice playing but try to keep the bow in the middle between the bridge and the finger

anyway great playing :-)
