He looks like George Bush, except Bush is nowhere as talented.

Oh my God!This is very difficult!I couldn't play this yet!

very clear tone, i like it

@npaganini I agree. The slower the tempo, the harder it is to play ricochet without sacrificing tone quality. Its very easy to sort of "fake" ricochet at a fast tempo and get away with it, which is why its so amazing that he can play it so slowly and still have it sound really well...

You look so relaxed! Great Job!

The tempo calls for Andante which is walking tempo. Most people play it piu presto, which is not what he was asking for, I'm sure he played it slower. These are basically his etudes he used to keep him self in shape. That's he never performed them in public, they're meant for the practice room.

amazing control :D
He's demonstrating to all STUDENTS learning it how all the notes should sound pitch wise.

Very brave! Play it at this moderate speed is very very difficult. Really a great demonstration for all the violin students. Too often this Caprice is played very fast and missing 10-15% of the notes, even at the top international competitions. Midori and Viktor Pikaizen shine in this wonderful Caprice.
