Well done, maestro! This was a fantastic rendition. Bravo!
Funny 😂
Imma be like you when I become 17 👁️👄👁️
Well, it looks like the world’s smallest violin finally found an audience
So they found somebody soon enough
Finally
@@dardevid6006 Luckily it didn't blow up into smithereens
@@Cyber_N-7660 or it would have spewed it's tiny symphony
@@funisinfinite. it would all up and down a city street
I know this isn't what this song is really about, but whenever I hear it, all I can think about is the "world's smallest violins" being young music students with the smaller instruments, who need someone to listen to them play, encourage them, and believe in them, for them to really discover a love for music. Shout out to all the K-5 music teachers out there, you guys are the real ones
Aww, love this!
Its actualy a song created by AJR

I agree! Thank you so much!!!!
to be fair, its not _so_ far removed from the intended message
@@TekExplorer True 🎻
I love that the 1/32 sounded more like a kazoo than a violin 😂
It's so difficult to get an even remotely okishsound out of the smaller violin since there isn't a lot of fr the sound to resonate :)
@@rachelshepherd9644 I know, I just find it funny that a violin sounds like a kazoo :D
@@Delphini_Zucchini you're right, the sound super different I do like the kazoo plastic chicken noises coming from jt
@@rachelshepherd9644 YASS CHICKEN VIOLIN
So true lmao 😂
There's something about so absolutely endearing with the sound of the 1/16 and 1/32 violins; something about their song reminds me of a fantastical, rustic autumn forest, Akin to something I'd hear while reading some of those children's books back in my childhood.
Rob's facial expressions are more interesting than the violins themselves.
*themselves*
@@powdereyes2210 thank you good sir.
@@skelebro9999 you’re welcome
I’ll now pretend like the letter L is my hand high fiving down at your non existent future reply

Lol
the worlds smallest violin, really needs an audience
I'm just happy AJR is getting recognised more and more, so they can stay afloat and make other experimental music that doesn't get enough recognition.
I heard their song bang a while back and now I just learned of worlds smallest violin and now I’m addicted.
YES
frrr
i wouldn’t really call their music very experimental at all tbh, it’s very pop-ish and pretty campy
they do have a unique sound though
i'm so happy that they're finally getting more recognition!! after all this time, my favorite song of their's is still dear winter 😅
Well, looks like we finally found someone who can all the play a cello, double bass, violin, viola playing world’s smallest violin
Aren't they all the same?
@@G.O.A.TR7oh hell no not even close
@@cristianasolonglondon like viola violin cello
@@G.O.A.TR7no the pitches on them are completely different and the difficulty level is extremely varying
@@G.O.A.TR7 as a cellist, we are not similar with viola nor violin. Cello and violin has different strings (Cello has A,D,G,C. Violin has G,D, A, E). Cello and violin has different pitches too, cello is the darker, toned down, while violin has a higher pitch. Although a viola has the same strings, i think it still has a higher pitch than the cello (idk much abt violas, because no one likes them/j).
Theres also a huge difference in the sizes. Cello being the biggest, then the viola, then the violin being the smallest. Cello also has an endpin too to help support/hold the cello together ( also keeping it on the ground), while violin and viola has an arm rest since you play it on ur shoulder i think. A cello uses the pegs and the fine tuners, although violin uses the pegs if you’re a professional. And, idk about viola.
I'm a flute player. My friend is a violinist. I decided after school to leave a bit early and instead of going with the bus riders I went with the car riders and I got a mini violin lesson. I still have lots to learn but im getting there. It's been day 1. I hope to play violin someday🤩
Aye I'm a flute player too :) and the violen has always been something I've wanted to learn
Lol im learning violin and my friend is learning the flute!!!
@@child.of_Hadesssss cool!!!😌🤩
No way I’m like almost the exact same now it’s been like a half a year of violin playing now and 5 years of flute playing
@@cierra3584same im a flute player but i wanna learn the saxophone
the only reason im on this vid is cuz the song is catchy as f _ _ _
Today I just learn that violins can vary in size and pitch as well apparently.
Nice!
not pitch but size obviously
All the violins should have been the same pitch, but the viola cello and bass were all different pitches.
@@eclipse3890 since they are different instruments (I know, I'm a Cellist)
@@celavetex yes, that's what I was trying to say (sorry if it wasn't clear) (I'm a violist)
@Alexandre Magno somewhat. The violin strings, are different notes than the viola strings (GDAE compared to CGDA), which are different from the cello strings (same notes, different octaves) which are different than the bass strings (CGDA compared to EADG)
they bass is also considerably lower than the violin, mostly because of size difference. The most common way to think about it is the shorter the strings the higher, the longer the strings the lower
man took “worlds smallest violin” to the next level
well Mr. crabs did it first
@@familyislife8077 true
Yes
Actually… there’s a violin that’s smaller than a 1/32 😂
@@user-tq9vs6fc9u which one?
AJR needs to see this ASAP 🥺🎻
Mad respect for having to tune all the violins and rosin all the bows
“ let me pay a sad song for you on the world’s smallest violin”
Squidward: this is serious!
Mr. Krabs: I know! This really is the worlds smallest violin. See?
I actually learned how to play that on my violin lol-
The 3/8s had a surprisingly good tone to me! (I'm not a violinist, btw, but a singer.)
But you can see that he doesn't quite know how to play on double bass and cello
@@zyciewproszku yeah, but it is pretty hard to learn 3 different instruments (in my opinion)
@@cassiusstorm3590 I also think that it is hard, but I just said what I saw
@@zyciewproszku yes. I just started strings class. Even though I play viola we are still taught to learn the very basics of every instrument. I was appalled when I saw his double bass bow hold and I don’t even play it. He is a very good viola and violin player though, people like him inspire me a great deal
@@cassiusstorm3590 i play cello violin guitar and piano (guitar only smells like teen spirit but its something too)
My first violin that I ever had was 1/32 violin, And it’s absolutely tiny. The fact that you can make music off of it is really impressive. I also have a model of the worlds smallest violin like you have at the end of the video
The violin became so small that is microscopic😂
True
How good must this guy be that he can make a clear sound on a 1/32 violin? His fingers probably occupie the space of 3 notes and yet he makes it sound good. Congrats man!
I used to play viola and whenever someone asked what is a viola j would say “ well its if a violin and a cello had a child that was not adopted.”
It's an amazing skill to be able to play instruments with different sizes.
Just think about how much hardwork it must took him to play this good on all the instruments.
You can see that he doesn't quite know how to play the cello and double bass:
His bow is crooked, he holds it too tightly, his fingers are positioned as if he were playing the violin, but he plays great the violin and he also played the cello and double bass well for a violinist
@@zyciewproszku he still played it good. You can’t expect him to master. 15+ different instruments for one video
@@zyciewproszku he’s just a beginner at those
@@CosmicStar3 9 of the instruments are just different size violins and that is what he always plays, the viola is just bigger than the violin and has different tuning so he played that very good, while playing the bass and cello his bow was crooked and he wasn’t holding it right but he doesn’t play those instruments.
@@rosemckenzie6232 true, but still, he is a violinist, not a bass player
Looks like somebody found the actual world’s smallest violin
Can we just take a moment to appreciate that he can and how well he plays all these instruments! 💚
I play violin. Learning the spacing would be a pain on these
This reminded me of something I have
"Is that a small cello?"
"Why yes. It is."
For some days I have been stuck with this song and listening this made me even happier ❤️🥺
So glad 🙂
Same I play 1/2 violin
Me to
I play full sized
What’s the song name? I’ve heard it everywhere but I don’t know what it’s called
The worlds smallest violin found it’s audience
Finally… this could make a full grown man cry…
They just start to sound more and more classical and relaxed, like the spirit sung it!
Good job. Honestly I play a Viola and seeing it in a cool catchy toon is just cool.
I didn’t know violins could get that small! With the exception of the last one, are those all professional instruments? They sounded very beautiful!
they make the small ones for young kids to learn to play
adult professionals would use the full size ones
a lot of these are most likely student instruments, so they aren't the greatest of instruments but they're really great for learners!
It’s so amazing AJR and Rob Landes in one video just perfect
The fact that you can play all of those is amazing. This is the first video I’ve seen of you and I already know you’re really talented
Thanks for giving the Viola and it's rich beautiful sound a voice!
Rob is just too talented to play a normal violin alone so he played all the violin family variations.. Such skills... ✨✨✨
Cello double bass and viola are not violins...
@@ericcurtis2205 they're all part of the violin family. also they're literally the same shape
@@radilime ik, I play cello myself, for over five years, but ik they are the same shape, but that doesn't make them the same
As a violinist I can confirm that every instrument is just a violin
There, happy ? 🙂
The rhythmic order of violins made it special, especially with your hands rob...great day again...

Honestly really happy AJR is getting more love, they really deserve it. This video was really funny as well!
Lol you had way too much fun 🤣 with this and I loved it. Great song! Couldn't stop smiling and then laughing at the end. Very cute and enjoyable video, thank you 😊. ❤
So you went from playing the world’s biggest violin (the double bass) to playing the world’s smallest violin? You are a genius when it comes to playing string instruments!
Octobasse would like a word.
The double bass isn’t a violin
@@PusheenMeow1 it kinda is, but also kinda not. It’s a funny thing, the contrabass.
@@lemagicbaguette1917 oh.
I play the bass so that’s why I was wondering
@@PusheenMeow1 neat!
It's stuff like this that makes me so glad that I picked up the violin again! Thank you so much Rob for being part in inspiring me to do it again!
You’re welcome! If you’d like to brush it on the fundamentals, I created a violin course here: tinyurl.com/ViolinJumpstart
It’s amazing that u played them all in tune :) well done
I literally searched up "The World's Smallest Violin", and found this MASTERPIECE! Idk bout anyone else, but this is the best cover of World's Smallest Violin ever!!🔥🔥🔥
This is what i like to hear!
The Cello is called a celo
Day time when I was at work at my internet office I just listen your videos on my computer
Whole the day
And at night I repeat the same process
Almost the rest of night I watch ur videos
Man u are a diamond which can't be find easily in world
Your are a precious Gem rob
My feelings are infinity about your talent
This needs more likes
It makes me so happy to see Rob Landes seem so cheerful and happy while playing the violin. 😊
I’m so happy that a band I loved since they began finally got the reconditioned they derserved and bang the song help with that
as someone who plays violin and in an orchestra, i love this!! its very neat, and double bass is probably my favorite one-
I've just been watching this on repeat, I love it so much. I sent it to my music major friends too lol.
I can't stop repeating this video over and over again 😆😆😆 That's AMAZING
This Man is SO GOOD!
i love ur vids +
I love AJR (fav band, in fact) =
I rewatched this video many times.
Just looking at how happy this man is playing these violins brings me joy
I remember him commenting on the official video and then I knew something big was coming !!🤗
when i put the idea out he hearted it lol
What's the official video??
You mean something "small"
The fact that this is amazing and so pleasant to listen to!
YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW LONG IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS
Can we just appreciate that this man learned how to play this song on 13 different violins (+ cello and base etc)
Him being able to play all this on instruments and STILLkeep amazing innovation is beyond me like damn
As violinist,this was AMAZING!
WAIT I NEED MOREEEE I LOVE THIS!
May of been the smallest one, but it had the biggest personality 😌
It’s not about the size it’s about how you use it 😳
It's pretty average actually
Would love to see more street performances and reactions from public
EwasteBen the scrapper, what in the world are you doing here? This isn't scrap!
Rob's facial expressions were like: not enough small? WATCH THIS
Rob brings back my childhood memories, it’s been so long since I’ve watched. 😭😭😭
Your content wants me to start playing my viola again. Thanks Rob.
You’re welcome! Check out my course which applies to violists too! tinyurl.com/ViolinJumpstart
That’s insane keep up the good work
they all sound beautiful 😻👌
I thought that I've reached playing on too many instruments.
And then this guy-
Now that's really the worlds smallest violin
Finally, playing this song with an actual tiny violin.
Name of the song?
@@1zee995 worlds smallest violin is the name
Tbh I have been waiting for someone to d this for two years, so thank you
That is pretty cool, I like the concept and the turn out even though i am not really a violin person but 1/2 was really cool
Now we need the actual world's smallest violin song on the world's smallest violin
I thought Mr. Krabs owns the world's smallest violin.
Just started learning violin and I aspire to be as good as you. and I know I probably don't have to say this but amazing plucking on the 1/2 violin it was great!!
I can’t stop watching this, it’s so amazing✨
I love how the smallest one he played actually sounded cute
This song on an actual violin sounds beautiful
I surprised you were able to get the notes accurate on the super small instruments!! Well done!! I’m impressed!
Used to play the viola, respect this man for finally including it.
He makes the instrumental, and i Sings!: My grandpa fought in World War Two
He was such a noble dude
I can’t even finish school
Missed my mom and left too soon
His dad was a fireman
Who fought fires so violent
I think I bored my therapist
While playing him my violin
Oh my god that‘s so insane
Oh my god that’s such a shame
Next to them, my shit don’t feel so grand
But I can’t help myself from feeling bad
I kinda feel like 2 things can be sad
The world’s smallest violin
Really needs an audience
So if I do not find somebody soon
I’ll blow up into smithereens
And spew my tiny symphony
Just let me play my violin for you
My grandpa fought in World War Two
He was such a noble dude
Man I feel like such a fool
I got so much left to prove
All my friends have vaping friends
They’re so good at making friends
I’m so scared of caving in
Is that entertaining yet?

Wish that made it easier
Wish I didn’t feel the hurt
The world’s smallest violin
Really needs an audience
So if I do not find somebody soon
I’ll blow up into smithereens
And spew my tiny symphony
All up and down a city street
While tryna put my mind at ease
Like finishing this melody
This feels like a necessity
So this could be the death of me
Or maybe just a better me
Now come in with the timpanis
And take a shot of Hennessy
I know I’m not there mentally
But you could be the remedy
So let me play my violin for you
I thought that he would play the song mr Krabs played with his smallest violin
This sounds so beautiful! Respect and like ❤
0:35 I Love where he goes pizz, and back to Legato lol
That’s cool
1:09
For reference, most kids start on 1/4 or 1/2. Preschoolers play on 1/8 size. I started on 1/16 at age 3. I’ve never seen a 1/32 or 3/8 but I had a 7/8. Very cool collection of violins.
OH
MY
GOD
I USED TO WATCH YOU AS A KID AND I FINALLY FOUND YOU! MISS YOU AND YOUR VIDS ROB
This is so cool I am asking a violin and a skate board for Christmas and I love the song worlds smallest violin! This is amazing!!!!!!! And btw you got my audience
instead, maybe ask for money as different violins have a lot of different tone and sound quality, that way when you know your way around a violin, you are able to choose one that sounds nice! Also, as you can see, there are many different sizes so getting fitted for a size will help a lot in the long run. Best of luck on your journey! :)
I got a 4/4 white violin and kinda broke one string going to classes soon
@@Nezzenkaty that's ok, let your teacher know, they might have extra strings or another instrument you can use in the mean time. Replacing strings and snapping strings is a part of playing! Strings have a whole lot of tension on them at all times so don't be too worried about it :)
@@rachelshepherd9644 thanks :)

I love the viola and violin part
Sounds like the Big Bang Theory theme
As a viola player, I’m very offended you didn’t have different sizes of viola because a one inch difference in base size is definitely very important. (/s)
There's also different sizes for double bass, and he only covered 2 for cello. It would make sense that he'd stick to violin since that's his main instrument, and he only had so much "space" to include that many instruments in the song.
ur very offended over an instrument?
That's a very minor thing to be offended over.
Love this vid. Keep it up dude😊
The cello was the best one!
Great job Rob 🫡
I respect everyone who were involved in this Seriously the best piece that i ve ever seen on UA-cam 💌 Hate off to well all 💟 love your videos

My favroite was the viola (because I literally play it...) But I absolutely LOVE violin too, and all the orchestra instruments! You're one of the best violinists in this world!
The viola sounds amazing
This is truly awesome
The flow of the song changed when the instrument changed to a violin❤❤❤
I love how on the 1/2 violin that he plucks the strings instead of using the violin bow
It's called pizzicatto:)
The bow looks so cute!
