      @@orin4654 i mean it compounded the effect. Other contestants sounded better than Ray from these videos. Something about Ray's playing clashed with the recording equipment and it sounded terrible. I think it has something to do with the inherent imperfections in Ray's technique, which are somewhat equalized by his phrasing/interpretations but nevertheless exaggerated by the audio.

    El unico hizo comentarios un poco inmaduros aca fuiste tu, no e spor nada pero cuena super despectivo: el chino toco esta muy bn
    me pregunto q relevancia tiene q sea chino??
    y mas ensima te equivocaste es taiwanes.
    ademas q no he visto un solo gesto de vengerov, vengerov parece bailarin de poca monta cuando toca, aunq toque como los dioses
