Mozart Violin Concerto #4 / Sebastian Carrasco (11 years)

[TheSingingViolinist]

I am loving this concerto! I have the first half of this movement, but the second part is still rough for me... SO i'll be playing the first half for my violin exam/jury.

[TheSingingViolinist]

Hi Sebastian! I am also learning this piece:) I always enjoy listening. I hope you will repost this piece someday! I would love to see how far you've come!!!

[SebCarrasco]

@TheSingingViolinist Very cool! It's a fantastic piece. I really enjoyed playing this masterpiece

[SebCarrasco]

I hope you enjoy it just as much as I did :)

[TheSingingViolinist]

@SebCarrasco I am loving every note of it!

[5felixfelicis5]

great job! its very musical, and pleasing to listen to=)

Mozart wouldve been proud

[entitled1]

Listening to this sure makes me want to pick up my violin again haha.

[JackIntheBK]

Good, but very sloppy on some parts. I know this piece is hard, but i think you were alittle rushed in violin.

[np42297]

nice, i used to b that good but injured my hand and stopped for 2 years, now im horrible... keep it up u might become pro someday

[iplehguitar]

aw thats terrible. i'd hate to injure my hand, thats a real bummer D:

[niusandy880216]

you do not need to move that much!! but the music is great !!talented boy

[MasterK1ller123]

Hey Sebastian,

Nice playing!

I'm not sure if its the microphone but sometimes it sounds as if you press a little too hard?

But very nice, interesting interpretation!

[AVCollegeStudents]

Its as if he was born to play mozart. I feel he really captured the essence of mozart! This one talented kid

[cellodude1]

Wonderful, who do you study with?

[diegox555]

you play the violin since .... what year?

[sportsfan1937]

how old were you when you first started??? and did u start by taking private lessons?

[whmfalke]

i'm playing the violin since 1999. but i know nobody who is so good as he. it's wonderful !!

i enjoy listening his music !!

[pviola314]

hahah i remember when I gave you my viola to try and it was too big for you to handle hahaha. How are you seb? I'm glad to see you are sounding good, I'll catch you some other time in the future.

demasiado cancherito...

[charmom]

WOW! you are my favourite young violinist. I watched your La Folia and became a fan

I am 9 and I just posted a video

I like your feeling and your tone and vibrato!!!

[ViolinistHDL]

you can almost rival anne sophie mutter with this song!

[witzkipferl]

i dont think so...

[SebCarrasco]

Neither do I, but by the way, what an imaginative and inspiring violinist she is! I just saw her at Disney Hall playing the Brahms sonatas and she was amazing, despite what the LA Times critic said in his review...

Sebastian

[witzkipferl]

she is amazing ! but i saw in youtube a vidio of an 7 years old boy who plays the paganini konzert i was really impressed but i think his parents want him to play the violin and i dont think that he am really like it ! whatever...! and you played this konzert with 11 ! do you like to play the violin or do your parents want you to play??

[SebCarrasco]

I absolutely ADORE playing the violin (I hope it shows a bit when I play), and my parents are really cool about it. You're right, when kids are forced to play, I think it shows and often even backfires.

Sebastian

[witzkipferl]

yes i think you like to play ! but it looked a littl bit overacted!dont get me wrong i know that you love to play !;) how old are you (today?)

[SebCarrasco]

I'm eleven years old.

Best,

Sebastian

[lolly33433]

i feel so bad, i'm a year older than u, and i'm only on suzuki book 6. u play so much better thn me

[czimon]

i feel horrible. i'm 21 and i'm only in suzuki book 4!

[kyleeyeh]

Dude, nice.

Kyle

[christina476]

omg!!! u played this song with almost perfect pitch accuracy!!!

[imalick]

Great performance. beautiful phrasing

[AndrewMann552]

What an energetic and strong performance! Sebastian Carrasco simply conquers the piece with a memorable, stunning sense of technique. The spirit of Mozart's brilliance shines as well as Carrasco's exquisite talent. I do hope we will have a chance to see more in the future!

[NadCerCar]

Como siempre nos conmoviste con tan hermosa ejecución. Día a día vas haciendo notables progresos, continúa así para deleite de todos los que te escuchamos y seguimos tus evidentes adelantos. N. Q.E.

[holzfallen]

Wonderful piece, wonderfully played! It's such a pleasure to hear you play and to watch you as well, your character really comes through. Keep up the great work! -- Sarvenaz
