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.
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 Yeah, the more he played the more excited I became because you know every note of that song and you keep thing "Is he going to nail that part!"
Incredible stuff, solo violin impresses me so much. It's really hard to play a violin by itself and make it sound good without accompaniment. Great work
That is the most amazing thing I have ever seen. Thank you so much for putting this up on youtube, you have an amazing amount of talent and in 10 years I better be anticipating you touring to my town. Keep it up!
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!
I'm learning this song right now- I just got the music from Adam earlier this month! I just wanted to let you know that I'm listening to both your recording as well as his to get the "feel" of it. Congratulations on the good work and all your other videos! I will post my version when I have it memorized :)
Man, Peter! You rocked it! Thanks for sharing the source: Adam DeGraff.....he has cool stuff on his site, but not the music for Stairway to Heaven. Dang. I'll keep looking. But GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
com certeza para quem é um grande fã de clássicos do rock como led adoraria toda inovação de um menino com apenas um violino, pois uma música de solos de guitarra e acompanhamento de contra baixo e violão ficaria muito mais fácil. parabéns!!!!!
Dude, you rock! Wonder if you've ever thought about going to rock orchestra camp? We'd love to have you there next summer - with over a hundred other kids who love to rock like you do! =)
this kid is amazing he actually did it the violin the most hardest intrument + stairway = BRIGHT FUTURE! AWAITS
3:54.... Sent shivers down my spine.
I feel sorry for those who had to make their presentations after you
This was the best 5:25 of my life. This kid is seriously going places.
dude.. you give me hope for humanity's future...
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

4:35 gave goosebumps. Keep this up!
The audience tried to distract him but he just ignored them. Very NICE

Really? ! 80 people disliked it? Obvious jealousy issues with them because this kid is awe🎵some🎶
They were the people who had to perform after him & didn't win
3:52 amazing
I've listened to this about 100 times honestly
if it makes you feel better about yourself. you are the reason I started playing violin
amazing playing I give you so much props
I rewatched the solo at least 5 times. Stupefacente!
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.
I dont understand why there are dislikes for this video!!! This kid is amazing and OBVIOUSLY extremely talented. Well done. Well done!!!
The people who clicked "dislike" thought is said "dis i like"
Kid's a genius.
Not enough adjectives to express how impressive your talent is... making it a ringtone so I can hear it more often.
@rfviolin
You're welcome. I did use the first six Suzuki books, and my teachers used many of Suzuki's principles.
bach x zeppelin, just lovely
oh my god. this is incredible, I don't know why you were so humble about it earlier!
Bows at the end, LIKE A BOSS
If this guy pursues a career in music, he's definitely gonna be up there.
i think the 37 dislikes are the other contestants. who clearly lost.
Lol true
+Flyingvoxel nolond I think they just didn't wait until it got good. People are impatient.
Also, you can just "Scrub" the time bar.

Lol the shushing at the end xD "Be quiet don't you know how the song goes!?" xD this was amazing!
+109367 Yeah, the more he played the more excited I became because you know every note of that song and you keep thing "Is he going to nail that part!"
KastaLimpa Or how is he going to nail that part on a violin :O lol

Peter, you're so awesome! I'm glad to have met you and to have been able to play in symphony with you.
Wow! Simply awesome. I am truly in awe of this young man.
Absolutely scintillating performance !!!
I can hear the laughter behind the camera, but when he starts to play more awesome, everyone just stops laughing and listens
That is a lot of notes to remember. Very nicely done
Amazing talent,i will keep up with you because I think one day,your going to be a big star. Congrads and a hundred thumbs up
+lisa houston No, he's going to become like a botanist or something.
dude, this is freaking amazing! 3:53 to 3:56 I was just in awe!. I can't even play that fast on guitar! Well done!
That is the most amazing thing I have ever seen. Thank you so much for putting this up on youtube, you have an amazing amount of talent and in 10 years I better be anticipating you touring to my town. Keep it up!

As a fellow fiddle player, this was badass and I don't say that lightly
well done! you maintained the integrity of the song ~ really appreciate this work :)
Hope he becomes famous. Game me the chills
You are the coolest kid ever. Seriously.
Dude fucking kills it.
makes me happy that the kids in the audience liked it
You are the man! Great arrangement, extremely well performed!!! Congrats.
Man, you make me cry. Beautiful :)
I was about to be bored and navigate away, and then it got good... and then it got AMAZING! Stunning work.
this changed my life!
I get chills, this is so. flipping. BRILLIANT!! :D perfect, you are extremely talented!!
OMG!!! ... this is fantastic!
Awesome, especially the solo, sounded almost as good as it does on a guitar (and thats a huge compliment). But anyway, awesome take on a classic
:points to "no stairway" sign:
+Quantic Theory No stairway? Denied!
This is absolutely incredible, brought a tear to my eye.
Hey I like your shirt.
Absolutely beautiful. So polished.
I think I watched this about hundred times. Now time to watch it again.
Congratulations! I am a beginner and you inspired me a lot to play rock n'roll with violin.
intense work, pleasure to listen to
holy shit the solo though, dude yessss
Que Mounstruo...Excelente..sobretodo el final..me recordaste a Devid Garrett.
this deserves sooooo many more views.
This is spectacular. Great job!
I hope you won the talent competition!

Not one single dislike, very good my friend ...
this performance renewed my faith in God.

DUDE. Keep playing. You make that violin _sing_. You have not just talent, but style, your own. Cultivate it! And let me know when your CD is out!
teared
Peter, hace tiempo escuche este cover tuyo y me encanto, a este tiempo lo sigo escuchando y me sigue impresionando.
Haven't heard it fiddled before. Posted way back in 2011. Nice job Pete.
Gave me chills...
awesome shit bro! wish I could jam like that!
bought the sheet music and it's an extremely challenging piece, really nice job
@violinslut
Standard! Nothing here that JS Bach didn't do in 1720 with the Sonatas and Partitas. (Well, in the first half of the clip, anyway.)
You are DRIPPING! with awesomeness! you have my respect!
Wonderful improvisation
The solo....😍
he's so in tune its amazing
Fantastic.
I'm another new fan of yours. Absolutely fantastic playing!
This kid has a future .

Man, Peter! You rocked it! Thanks for sharing the source: Adam DeGraff.....he has cool stuff on his site, but not the music for Stairway to Heaven. Dang. I'll keep looking. But GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome, awesome, my man. Killer version of a classic tune!
the audience made me cringe so bad. highschool is the most awkward time ever i wish i never had to go through that time
Nice job! I am a fan of LZ. Kid, you did a great job! Very enjoy your solo ;)
same i grew up listening to a lot of classic rock, thats something id give a try i play the violin but not nearly as good maybe if i practice a lot
Our generation isn't completely fucked after all
Congratulation from Italy!! You're fantastic!!
com certeza para quem é um grande fã de clássicos do rock como led adoraria toda inovação de um menino com apenas um violino, pois uma música de solos de guitarra e acompanhamento de contra baixo e violão ficaria muito mais fácil. parabéns!!!!!
Wow this is amazing! You did a fantastic job!
Wow that was amazing! Definitely a goal to work for!
B.S.! I say he's a cyborg! lol. Great job, truly, lost count of the number of times I've listened to it, never gets old.
That was awesome!! Great work!
