The cat is a real bonus (hard to figure the connection) but I want to see the drops exploding in slowmo.

Awww .... but you couldn't see it! I read about it in Peter Carey's book Oscar and Lucinda. They didn't bother with the bucket of water.

Great video and very reassuring. You're so calm and matter of fact and it doesn't seem to hurt. The moment of truth when the needle goes in is the big thing. Good to see a close up of how you did it.

Hi Wintermelon91, these are the best videos I have found on the net showing basic cha cha techniques danced really well. Thank you for posting them. Would it be possible to do an English translation? I'm sure you would get lots of hits.

A wonderful performance drowned out by the wrong sort of 'bell'. The bells in the score are meant to resemble church bells, not a fire bell! A glockenspiel would have worked. But I don't mean to be critical. I am full of admiration for the spirit and musicality of these kids. Well done!

What are the dances?

I love it!

Same here. The two videos are very clear, EXCEPT the crucial bit, the hardest part that I always have trouble with: how to join the edges of the fabric to make a tube. Please could you make another video?

It happened to me in a concert too - but I wasn't the soloist, just in the cello section. I looked down and saw all the hair cascading off the bow in slow motion - sort of like a waterfall. I just sat there with my mouth open. I didn't know that could happen. Great that you caught it on film. The...

Useful demo, very clear and the written descriptions are a big help too.

Anajil, we need you. Dogs? Wolves? And either way, WHY? There must be a story here. Love this song and Harry Nilsson's is the best version. Thanks.

I recently had surgery and this mask was used. I woke up feeling fine with no sore throat. I came looking for information to understand more about the procedure - amazing that such a big thing can fit down there and do no damage. Yes this video is not pretty to watch, but that's not what it's the...

Goodness, I know every performer has to put his own stamp on a piece - while also respecting the composer, which Hough says he does. But did Rachmaninov take it this FAST??? I am a great admirer of Stephen Hough but to me the peremptory way he despatches those sweeping themes and in particular th...

I agree Rushad is an amazing cellist but he upstages the rest of his band at every turn. Perhaps 'the new guy' - whose name is Tristan Clarridge - could learn a few things from Rushad. But vice versa, definitely.

What I like about this is you can see Tristan 'chopping' - an amazing percussive effect I'm trying to master - hard if you've been classically trained. Yes they're all amazing.

Just discovered these guys, recommended to me by members of The String Contingent, a fantastic Australian group. Brilliant. Can anyone point me to a close-up of how Natalie gets those percussive sounds out of her cello? That's not anything she learned at Juillard!

Anyone thinking of making a vid should watch this first. Simple, unhurried and straight to the point. And it's about the scarf, not the presenter. Thanks so much!
