Hey folks, she is not bad! Ok, she's not Hilary Hahn who can play crazy, difficult classical stuff, but she is good in what she does. She plays pop and folk-like music and has her own style with that dancing and costumes. Have you ever complained, that Kiss, AC/DC or the Stones don't play hard classical guitar pieces of italian composers?
People always say that she "cannot play". Im always angry with them cuz yes she can.. surely not like somebody whose life contains 40 years of only playing voilin day and night from mum and dad's money... but she can. And her talent is the creativity of doing it. Making up tracks like crystallize, elements AND play music that is close to our hearts (my generation, the '85-'95), like Zelda, Final Fantasy, and soon Pokemon. That is talent, and haters gonna hate. :D
Maybe there is a better professional violinist in each city, but she is still really skilled. There is a lot of hate/envy because she is the most famous violinist around the world But almost every famous is not the best but a skiled one, and most of them don't receive too much hate
I made the mistake of reading through the comments. Son of a .... biscuit, people! Freezing temperatures and bare fingers! Go stand out there next to her and let me flick the back of your ears a couple of times! Lindsey is only human! But she took a huge chance to do something she loves! Get off her back! Damn!
DJ Salad I'm not quite a hater, but she really isn't that good, in fact she is pretty trash... any classical musician would agree. But I'm sure u don't understand since u prolly like pop music :/
she is super sympathetic. Besides being super famous, playing outdoors as an ordinary person. this reminds me of the stories of the old super man (man of steel) with their dual identities
What an incredibly honest performance that totally showcases your ability and proves that you don't need to edit the shit out of it to pull it off. Well done and I really hope you come to the UK soon!
Yea playing more than one string is called double stopping, and yes there might have been some pitchy parts but it's a technical piece and it was probably cold. Impromptu in the street with background noise in one take, could you do the same?
Steven Nixon I didn't mean double stopping I meant she was catching several strings by accident. At this moment in time I probably could not but then again I haven't tried to make a career out of claiming to be able to play the violin.
Hey didn't mean to start a war here lol :) Like I was saying before I think lindsey stirling is great at what she does and I'm a huge fan. At the same time I agree with others in that she doesn't have the technique of other classical violinists. But who cares! If she makes good music that is all that matters. Anyway once again didn't mean to insult her, I'm a huge fan. Glad to hear you play the violin too!
Que bien lo hace. Me encanta!!! Incluso me encanta el momento en que tiene un error y se le va una nota. Es maravillosa Lindsey!! Ojalá me la encontrara un día tocando en la calle. Que suerte la gente que pasaba ese momento por allí.
I never said she couldn't play the violin. I just said that traditionally trained violins are at a different levels. She has lots of talent and a bright future ahead of her. Oh and not to start an argument. Most of the world class violinist start making a living at around 10, so they aren't just living of their parents. Though a job in the classical world is very expensive. Anyway I hope Lindsey the best and can't wait to hear her new album!
She is an incredible artist to those comparing her to technically better violinists, so what? the vast majority if not all of these violinists have never written anything original, all they do is replicate the work of others, they are not artists, Lindsey is adding something new to the world, she will be remembered long after they are forgotten.
"all of these violinist have never written anything original, all they do is replicate the work of others" um i thought that's why they're a violinist and not a composer😐
It was actually really cool seeing her play like this. 😍Helped me realize that she makes some of the same mistakes I made when I played (to a much lesser degree of course). But it’s comforting knowing that this piece of music is actually that hard to play and I wasn’t just bad😂😂
this is a really good video in the fact that with some of her music it's sometimes hard to "hear" how talented she is with the electronics and other instruments in her songs. Listening to her song "raw" was interesting, I could still "hear" the other instruments mentally since I've heard that version first, sounds great both ways!!
You have chinese characters in your YT channel's name, your cover is Linkin Park's "Living Things", AND you know LINDSEY STIRLING! Are you even REAL!!!
That One Violinist Yes when you play really fast notes, you always play at the middle of the bow, because as we can see in the video when you need to change the string it's easier, you're sure to always have enough of the bow and even more important you're sure to keep your bow in the good way, well perpendicular to the violin. I play the violin for only 2 years and I know that : fast notes, = small part of the bow (especially for the mercato, this is what she does); long notes= almost all the bow. She studied for 10 years so she know how to play simple fast notes x)
Lindsey! Oh how you inspire me 😍🤩💛🌍 making the world a better place with your beautiful gifts! Thank you. Saw you with my family in Fort Lauderdale. Adore you & your music!💛💫
AWESOME! How can the people walk around without stopping and hearing this awesome music? If I wouldn't know Lindsey... and I would hear her music on the street... I would stop and listen to this fantastic music till the end!
Love you lindsey!!! I hope you never read these comments, they’re filled with elitist assholes who thing they’re the best thing since sliced bread when they really ain’t shit.
She was at Leicester Square in London when I was ! I'm so sad that I didn't know she was playing just near I was in holidays ! But I was at The Garage and it was awesome !
I think she would agree with that. No one can compete with Mrs. Hahn anyway when it comes to technique. I love them both.
Lindsey is so cute! Did you see that adorable smile at the end?
Hey folks, she is not bad!
Ok, she's not Hilary Hahn who can play crazy, difficult classical stuff, but she is good in what she does.
She plays pop and folk-like music and has her own style with that dancing and costumes.

That's very hard for her not to dance while playing. Most violinists couldnt't do that.
+HansKuhlmann haha ;)
Most violinist would have trouble dancing! Lindsey Stirling is awesome at the violin.
They don't do it and there is a reason why they don't do it. Is not they can't, they purposely don't.
EXACTLY, they purposely don't!
I'd like to see Menuhin playing like this. lmao
if she played classical music tho. try dancing to brahms violin concerto. it would be eppiiiccc
I LOVE AT THE END WHEN SHE SMILES !!!!!!
that was amazing so beautiful. if only people watched and listened.
this girl is GORGEOUS !!!
I will miss any new releases. This video is so beautiful ❤️ 😊
So talented, so creative, and so much a Stone Fox! 💐💐💐

Most of her haters can't even be nearly as good (let alone in those same conditions)
Besides, this was 5 years ago. She's WAY better now
not to mention ambient temperature effects the sounds of the instrument
DJ Salad I'm not quite a hater, but she really isn't that good, in fact she is pretty trash... any classical musician would agree. But I'm sure u don't understand since u prolly like pop music :/
サイレントソウル
She isn’t trash, like you mentioned, she’s actually pretty good. Her songs may not be that complex, but Lindsey herself is a good violinist.
just beautiful.....
Beautiful
I love Lindsey ♡
i like her and her music
She looks stunning!!! I love the INTRO of Crystallize!
she is super sympathetic. Besides being super famous, playing outdoors as an ordinary person. this reminds me of the stories of the old super man (man of steel) with their dual identities
One of my all-time favorite tune 🎵🎵🎵🎻👊😎.
Wow!
Just happened upon this!!!
Beautiful! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Beautiful? And so is the music!
uyyyyy!! me gusta la forma como toca esta instrumento... pucha que me falta mucho para alcanzarla... jejeje
Love you Lindsey!
What an incredibly honest performance that totally showcases your ability and proves that you don't need to edit the shit out of it to pull it off. Well done and I really hope you come to the UK soon!
she didn't pull it off, she was playing several strings for most of it and played several bits well out of tune.
Yea playing more than one string is called double stopping, and yes there might have been some pitchy parts but it's a technical piece and it was probably cold. Impromptu in the street with background noise in one take, could you do the same?

it seems being her favorite she always plays it
+Mia Probus that's beautiful
Can't wait new album =)
we're obsessed with Lindsey's music :)
BRAVO!
Awesome! I have chills!!
Linsdey, is an amazing performer.. I wonder, does she truly know what her music does for people? Two words, Heaven Sent! Thank You...
oh... intonation ... :O
rip
nailed it
oof
Another internet bully hiding behind a fake user name. Get over yourself.
There is a difference between the sound of the violin itself and the pitching/intonation of the notes. Please don't get the two mixed up.
She's the best!!!
I love that s
It was actually really cool seeing her play like this. 😍Helped me realize that she makes some of the same mistakes I made when I played (to a much lesser degree of course). But it’s comforting knowing that this piece of music is actually that hard to play and I wasn’t just bad😂😂
It's actually not that hard
wow)))awesome
Crystallize!
You are awesome!!!
i like it increible we love in mexicali mexico
Crystallize is my fav, but this time... my eyes were filled with tears....
she plays from heart to heart
I learn Crystallize thanks to this video :)
Wow 😯
I would knee down and listen to her, she's so amazing! : )
Shes trash lol
Dogshit violinist
What a beautiful master piece
Lindsey is so cute!!!!!!
wow she ´s perfect...Alswome!!!!
this is a really good video in the fact that with some of her music it's sometimes hard to "hear" how talented she is with the electronics and other instruments in her songs. Listening to her song "raw" was interesting, I could still "hear" the other instruments mentally since I've heard that version first, sounds great both ways!!
Violin so beautiful and you linzey
She is a pop-star!...At least to me :D
You have chinese characters in your YT channel's name, your cover is Linkin Park's "Living Things", AND you know LINDSEY STIRLING! Are you even REAL!!!
hahaha 0:21 bird dropping XD
ice?
Love it
Queen
You don't see something like this every day!
Esta es tu escancia.... simplemente maravillosa..
you are totally right :-)
holy moly that note at 1:15. she doesn't use the last 4-5 inches of her bow either, the juiciest part at the balance point. questionable.
pure envy
inksama Because that how you make quick notes...and because she played for 20 years so she can do those notes using each part of the bow.
How can you use all the bow in the fastest part in 16th notes?
That One Violinist Yes when you play really fast notes, you always play at the middle of the bow, because as we can see in the video when you need to change the string it's easier, you're sure to always have enough of the bow and even more important you're sure to keep your bow in the good way, well perpendicular to the violin.

She studied for 10 years so she know how to play simple fast notes x)
+titemopunk 'studied' is a very generous term... did she even attend music school?
Lindsey! Oh how you inspire me 😍🤩💛🌍 making the world a better place with your beautiful gifts! Thank you. Saw you with my family in Fort Lauderdale. Adore you & your music!💛💫
OMG Lindsey you just A M A Z I N G !

no she's not, she is a rubbish violin player. Listen to Hilary Hahn playing Bach Charonne and tell me drooling is amazing.
Melodi D she sure is amazing
She is simply amazing!
AWESOME! How can the people walk around without stopping and hearing this awesome music? If I wouldn't know Lindsey... and I would hear her music on the street... I would stop and listen to this fantastic music till the end!
she's just amazing, and a really pretty girl honestly
very good :) I hope you keep well
AWESOMEEEE!!!!! :3 Lindsey
