Joshua Bell [Violin] - Tambourin Chinois: Stereo

[avdota]

Better, then Maxim...

[vivisweet123]

He plays good but not better then Maxim Vengerov

[kiwi650411]

Excellent!

[avdota]

I love Kreisler...

Joshua Bell's playing is very-very good. Exellent!!

Joshua, if you read - thank you! I hope once I will play this difficult piece too)))

[violinfrank]

muy descriptivo verdad?

[lazyypigg]

i like his hair! :)

[username14657]

:-O

WOAH!

[Pikajew21]

My god, I have a transcription for this piece for the cello, and holy Jesus! Its hard!

[JOOS1993]

I want to have that!!

where did u get it?

[Pikajew21]

Umm, If there is an Allegro Music store by you theres a book called "Transcriptions for Cello: Kreisler"

[username14657]

such a sexy sexy dude

[kevinlew41]

woah!

[musicaclassica2007]

Excellent! Crisp, every note heard. Beautifully interpreted.

[sanja62]

I love him!...I like specially his playing of soundtracks from the movie The red violin...

[k4n5d2]

Замечательный исполнитель!

[sarevilo31]

He makes it seem easy! :) Great violinist!

[carrottoponcrak]

u chach

[OrianaDiazL]

He's such a nice guy and great musician!

[tonyv00]

thats cause you are gay chops... must be horrible

[Chopinm4n]

yea this is acctually really good playing. but i could really do without all the crazy shots of the woman walking and all those crazy antics. its just distracting from the music.

[Pilarress]

hes AMAZING! In my opinion, this is the best ive ever heard it played! Bravo Josh!

[FreakazoidsManager]

OMG. This is completely amazing. Wish I could play like that.

[yaegypark7]

OMG,he plays this piece so good!What are you people talking about?

[ryanjk1988]

What's even more ridiculous than the fact that Joshua is able to play this is that some guy had the balls to WRITE this piece.

[TheDigitalMonk]

dis guy is ok but i think i is better hes not even playing rite notes

[battleblades]

TheDigitalMonk.......you are sorely mistaken. He is playing every single note right...I know because I have the score.

And don't be arrogant.....as far as I can tell from your channel you're a marimba player...and a percussionist cannot compare to a violinist because of the sheer difference in instruments.

I think this is lovely, BTW.

[TheDigitalMonk]

I was just joking around, I'm a huge fan of Josh Bell... especially this recording. I was just having some fun being dumb on youtube. Of course he's playing the notes right and better than I can (on my respective instrument).

And by the way, you are wrong when you say percussion can't compare to other instruments, but I can understand why you would say that after thinking I was serious :D

[ciaconne90]

i dont mean to sound harsh, but at least he can spell. and not tlk lik dis. Joshua Bell is one of the most famous violinists in the world. i would be amazed if you could post a video of you playing this song and it be more spectacular than his.

[TheDigitalMonk]

you obviously didn't read my second post

:P

[SophiaStarlight]

Jealous! I'll be lucky if I can ever play this piece even half as good...

[0butterflybomb0]

Can't wait to play this piece on marimba! ^-^

[soadfan]

1:16

= pure sex

[peterthemophead]

sooo good

[TarasDreszer]

nice camera work. Is this from a movie?

[diwataholic]

wow.... this is insane.... amazing

[lighthouse280]

Judging from how much he usually moves when he plays, I can say he was probably glued to the ground knees locked by the director of the music video.

[Impsters]

Violinists as a "genre" are notorious for moving and swaying :P

[HilldogTroy29]

I love it when Joshua Bell plays Kreisler

[cadaverdescompuesto]

la mejor interpretacion del tambourin chinois

[countryultimate]

disgusting. what?! is this guy for real?!?! unbelievable. he's playing it roughly 2.4 million times faster than i am.

[dotifa]

too fast in my opinion. good though.

[syr1811]

Great song, Great rendition. Agree with ares7768 that Bell's interpretation is wonderful. Such life bursting from the strings. I think Eugene Fodor's working of this tune is it's equal.

[ares7768]

this is the best interpretation of this piece. i love it!

[pyccoye]

You mistakenly say that he is performing with Fritz Kreisler the composer. That is not possible since Kreisler died in 1962.

[BegumQ]

very nice- music and musician. the video is well done and with very good taste.

[lolmanerik]

gay

[bamboo890]

ha ha dahnbi, lol. But you're right. We all forgot the accompanist because we were so interested in the so-called 'sex appeal' of Josh. Hurray for paul Coker!!

[dahnbi]

yeah, right on!!!

[bamboo890]

BTW, lite beer, looks doesn't matter.

[bamboo890]

Oh So lite beer, you're saying that Joshua Bell is too pretty to play Tambourin Chinois on the violin and is too good to be playing the violin?!

[yuentze001]

好靚仔 - joshua

[9031879134]

I had a feeling you had bad taste from the moment I saw your screen name. Haha... Lite Beer...

[BuzzLiteBeer]

Although Josh is a fine violinist...he's way too much of a pretty boy for this genre of music. Superficiality to the point where a music video is made (complete with sex appeal), makes me throw up in my mouth.

[bit391]

How can you be to pretty for a genre of music. Why do looks matter? He plays the violin great. That is what matters. If you don't like his looks don't look.

[microfatcat]

I'm a bit worried that you're responding to sex appeal with vomit. It's about the music anyway. He's got sex appeal, why not add that into the equation too?

[dahnbi]

what's so sexy about this video??? it's romantic and sensual, but it's chaste. joshua locks eyes for a moment with an unknown woman...it's not like they're "getting their freak on." if he took off his shirt and gyrated his hips, then i'd understand your complaint... but mr. bell would never do that (hopefully)

[nevelefuchsia]

(L)(L)(L) Marry Me!

[dahnbi]

PAUL COKER, piano. don't forget the accompanist!!!!!!

[dahnbi]

sweet mother of god! i've been looking for this forever and now i find it here! youtube rocks!!!!!!!!! *air guitar motions & sound effects*

[LOCCDOGYY]

LOL You sound like you might play runescape. Not saying anything bad, just a thought

[dahnbi]

haha! i had to google "runescape." i'll take it as a compliment, even though i never play vdeo games, much less online video games (the only game i play is the "simon says" widget. anything more complicated would make my brain implode.)

[orchdork147]

Joshua Bell is always amazing!!

[boardslide03]

i never knew there were violin "music videos"

i love this

[orchdork147]

Haha!!

[ares7768]

i love this interpretation. Bell has amazing bow control and phrasing...and the notes are so clean! I wonder how he sounds playing "Dance of the Goblins"

[architecandy]

talented AND cute

[maniactrn51]

you can say anything you want, but he is very serious about his music. please give him credit for his talent.

[crystal41889]

talent indeed

[creativity4u]

its not gay, its talent for your veiwing pleasure.

[JOOS1993]

It's so perfect.. the musik.. but also the boy! Great..

[kittiecutie2]

holy crap he is good omg i only dream of playing that kinda of music to hard lol

[ienak162]

WOW. This guy is awesome.

[Healinghuman]

He's fantastic, besides being handsome!

[DjKiba]

Awesome!!!!!!!!

i could never play strings (I do percussion and piano(.

But this guy totally takes his training to the next level

and that is what it is all about.

[shmalex888]

wow, amazing!

[RocketRalf]

wow @ 1:50!!! BEAUTIFUL!!

To the guy that said Bell is the Vai of violin... Well Vai is much more about show-off than about the music itself, Bell is completely on the other side. He's one of my favorites because he is so respectful of the music and has a very natural, non-violinist-virtuoso musicality, to my ears at least, that's not a statement just my opinion.

[nevelefuchsia]

hey im not a guy lah...lol...and i was just replying to a comment who said he was the malmsteen of the violin..

[RocketRalf]

Oh, well sorry for that :P.

BTW I had not realized how good the visual part of the video was, many generic music videos have a thing or two to learn from it!

[dahnbi]

agreed. this is such a superior classical music video, with great production values, very stylish; "choreographed" perfectly with the music... most of the others i've seen look like cheapo travelogues: some douchebag takes the footage from a train trip thru europe, puts some music in the background, and voila, it's done.

[karmonblake88]

He is what Dane Cook would call a BAMF!

[BarbLehto]

: ) 5 stars.

[emily1307]

Beautiful-brings back a lot of great memories-thanks!!

[nevelefuchsia]

haha...steve vai of violin..

Next time come to MPO malaysia n play this...

[sunshinehello]

Bravo, amazing

[cordillerana9]

Maravilloso!!!!

[th4224]

有些部分很像"梁祝"里面的

[court0393]

WOW my jaw dropped lol he is VERY talented!!!

[agirl234]

wow this makes me want to switch from viola to violin...but im not going to, BC VIOLAS ROCK!!!! YEA, violist section!

[narithchann]

that fuckin crazy!!! damn

[Guitarkid23664]

oh crap.that is awesome.

[asmalimescit]

he must be the malmsteen of violin :)

[OtherWorld]

Umm Yngwie is a fat ass who knows nothing about classical music and only exists because other people who knows about classical music thinks he does. He's not even good.

[bce5150]

O_O

[Grashoofd]

sweet

[Shiru182]

Nice !!

[mrtvman]

cool
