    At the beginning I was thinking, "Oh, this is cool! Doesn't sound too hard, I bet I could learn this..." and then he got to the middle of the song and I started grinning like a maniac
    Rock on, dude

    Phenomenal! Excellent fingering, bowing, and pizzicato. Great tone and harmonics as well. Nice interpretation of the original rock song. Glad he kept it in the classical genre. Very well done!!!!

    The arrangement's by Adam DeGraff... go to adamviolin(dot)com and prepare to be amazed.
    I learned it by ear off his album, but you can get the sheet music at his website.

    Young... and already one of the most outstanding violinists I've heard. Passion, melding, truly a musician to follow in the future.

    First minute I was like "eh" .... but then he really took off and by the last minute I was bopping my head, sitting on the edge of my seat.
    Fantastic performance. Loved it.

    man, i thought i could play stairway on the piano pretty good but that was insane. especially the buildup midway. the awesome guitar/violin section before "And as we wind on down the road... " bow de bow de bow de bow bow now ... I didnt think you could play a violin like an electric guitar but i guess you can. best violin solo ever.

  • @109367

      @KastaLimpa 9 років тому +4

    @dominoplay3712 8 років тому +6

    ok, just bought Adam's sheet, it's nice, little different from this version (just using lower octaves than here,but you can mix and change when you play). It's not to difficult, it needs couple of hours - but i've finished academy, so it's intermediate-high level for begginers. cheers, it's really fun though!
