I improvised on the spot to If My Heart Was A House by Owl City. I never rehearse, just go with the flow and this is what resulted!
LunarBounce used on Garageband for a more studio like sound.
Video recorded with Canon t1i.

  • Awesome! I try to improvise on the violin, not that great at it. Better at the piano. your vibrato is really good. :)

    can you give me any tips on how you improvise on the violin??

  • @onewayjesus101 Improvising is all about feeling. Find the key, and sing your harmony in your head. Then sing it out loud. If you can sing it, you can play it. Feel the melody of the sing. When you sing with the song, move with it. If it's a slow song, move slowly. When it picks up, feel the song's energy and translate that into your singing. Then try again with the violin. It will come out :)

  • Wow, if this was improvised then you're amazingg!(: lol

  • @wtfuggies thank you :)

  • awesome! do you have a sheet?

  • @Jeeyo12345 I'm sorry :( I don't have sheet music. I make these up on the spot so it would be different every time I improvise.
