J.S. Bach "Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring" by Reed Allen violin with Antonio Artese piano

[Bigmacvids1]

Wonderful performance! I'm also playing this piece and I've heard it played at several different tempos, though mine is closer to this one. Again well done!

[ChiciBo0]

Justin Bieber can't do that!

[mzzphit]

fab dude!, well played! 

[sundaysangel]

i play violin and the only thing that keeps me from quitting is learning this. Im dying to learn it. It'll be years until i can though, but im looking forward to it.

[EpikkKidt]

why did I cry? xD

[epicmusicdj]

I'd say work on your vibrato and make it more stable. Very good performance in general.

[graciluvsASL]

nice job!

[graciluvsASL]

nice job

[Kudos2theworld]

Great job! Were you rushing though? I'm doing this solo too and the tempo of mine is 63. XD

[Resodeus]

Such a wonderful piece & performance! : - )

[musiclady099]

Beautiful Job!! I was wondering what arrangement you used for this. (Who transcribed it, & the publisher). I have one for violin and piano that is slightly different, but I like this one better! Again, you played it beautifully, Reed!

[KenAllenVideo]

Reed began violin playing the Suzuki Method at the age of six, and he memorized a lot of music until he could concentrate on the feeling in the music.

[Aysannes]

use your whole bow, man, and straighten your left wrist, if you want clearer notes and better vibratto. otherwise, not so bad.

I always mess up when I get to measure 25

[onlyizzati]

that was brilliant. i luv it soo much.

[WIDiscoveryGirl]

I play the viola, and I played this song last year. Love it!

[aspie101]

I used to play, the main problem is that my bow lost its tension.

[breakout0175]

WOW that is amazing. It sounds wonderful.

[reeseslady1]

my school played this song but i dont play the violin i play the saxophone

[xXindieXpandaXx]

I'm playing this is my high school orchestra as well. First violin has this same part repeatedly, changing to a minor chord in the middle, but it's honestly not all that hard. Just some tricky fingerings. No switching positions unless you choose to do so. I love Bach's stuff though: always so simple yet beautiful.

[monkeyface455]

ahh ur great

[markgregoryc]

great! im starting to play too, wished i could play like you.. keep it up..
