  • Lol . . . how much did you speed the vid up? I'd believe it if you had an analog clock in the background . . . ticking away at 1 bpm. At any rate, nice intonation and fun. I had my electric fiddle stolen out of my car years ago and miss it . . .

  • @Deanomag - You are joking right?

  • @1stfiddlerman I initially thought it was sped up because the video was glitchy. Not as high a quality as the piazzolla so I thought it was altered. Then I thought back to my electric fiddle and remembered how quick the response can be. Nicely done . . . I'm pulling out my fiddle tonight to play it and see if I can keep up :) I used that piece to audition for university back in the day.

  • @Deanomag - I wouldn't dream of it. The sound quality is not that good because of the effects and probably because of my cheap camcorder that I had at that time.

  • Do you play professionally, for fun, or for both? Looks like fun at least.

  • @Deanomag - I'm a professional classical violinist. Since moving back to Florida three years ago, I have been freelancing in the local professional orchestras, which do not have many concerts per year (Florida is culturally deprived). I've been traveling to play abroad as well off season. I also play weddings in various chamber ensembles almost every weekend. And I am happy to say that I still play for fun, and get paid for it too :-)
