Sometimes you just don't feel like walking on stage, after all, we're only human. But with enough self-encouragement and backstage pep-talk, anything is possible. Idk maybe I'm just really good at BS-ing myself.

After all, 2 minutes in heaven is longer than 1 minute in heaven.
👏👏👏🎶🎻🎼🍎Apple day with Ray Chen 🎉🎉🎻🎻#playwithray @nereaviolincanarias
We all know the only way to get to heaven is to play Caprice no. 5 at Kavakos speed
As it turns out, an apple pie a day does not keep the doctor away! ;-)
I've been a subscriber for a year and more :) i learnt and laugh a lot! Lol
YESSS RAYYYYY!! wait r u the forever lost Ling Ling?
This is nearly 8 minutes of Ray cracking dad jokes 😂.
IS THAT ALL I AM TO YOU?!
Ray Chen well you certainly have the cap to carry it off :p
Aishwarya Pantula
Gotta love him for that.XD
@@RayChenViolinistNo, you're also every undergrad before going into finals, ever, especially the stream of thoughts from 03:35 until 04:55.
You mean a whole lot more, whiny baby.😉
Whenever you think that the orchestra is the culmination of the world's greatest performers and high society artists, just remember that behind the scenes one of the greatest violinists in the world is also the world's biggest DORK
😂😂😂
which only makes it greater lol
Ray Chen: 80% genius violinist
20% memes and dad jokes
I think it needs to be flipped to 80% memes and dad jokes and 20% genius violinist😂😂
@@datoboe9228 no
nobody:
ray chen: *you are a sexy beast*
I wouldn't say "Nobody"😍
Gaggles of young asian female concertgoers aren't nobody!
The Tzigane harp cadenza the harpist is playing in the beginning is actually really hard to play and the nightmare of every harpist in audition! 😂
Only the best to accompany the best.
Lmao she was probably playing it as a warm up
She is in the LA Phil
@@JamesLee-yn4wj she was, she retired this year :)
H3nessa damn, good for her though!
* Washes hands *
*Coughs in hands*
*Touches violin*
Ray omg
This hits worse on 2020
5:55 "Fly check."
I really need to start learning from the pros. I already went through at least two concerts with my fly open.
Whats a fly check
Bot 1 when you check your fly-
@@Emeand33 whats a fly
Noelic hey i saw you on that reupload of ray playing with Albert and lily lmao I remembered your pfp haha
@@Ben-ob4to Ahh, I remember that too. Sorry, I don't watch those two. I just clicked because Ray Chen was on the thumbnail and title. (But I do know about those two, specially Lily. Just never watched her videos or streams.)
What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger...or kills me more slowly. My thoughts exactly when I have school or recitals.
school is the world's worst recital.
@@FodorPupil Exactly
Almost 8 minutes of Ray flexing. Entertaining flexing.
It's good to know that amazing people like Ray also do those kind of funny conversations with them selves to relieve the stress, 😂😂
On behalf of woodwind players, screw EVERYONE that eats food backstage and is still able to play. Looking straight at you, Ray...
Thank you I’m a clarinetist
Brendon Phillips it’s really bad for brass too, the previous owner of my first trumpet didn’t wash it, and it was full of mouldy food
Nicola Dickinson but at least you can give your instruments a bath :(
PREACH!😂😂
As a non musician, I was thinking that it was a risky move to eat a sandwich while wearing his performance suit...
Thank you Ray for letting us have a glimpse of what it is to be a world class musician! All that in a humorous and not self indulgent way, keep being awesome mate.
ray: an apple a day keeps the bad intonation away
me: *buys 45838184957106926581668 apples*
5:34 Did this world-famous virtuoso violin soloist just make an Undertale reference in front of my eyes?
This man may or may not be the perfect human.
Ray Chen "that's the extent of my skills"
*Don't you lie*
I always love this backstage videos😂😂!
AHHAHAHA
Watching this makes me nervous. 😂😆
I thought he was going to say an apple a day keeps the violas away
Hey guys, I finally found Ling Ling, it's the boy at 7:41.
Ling Ling pronounces Saint-Saens that way?
He said "excellent" in front of the camera but in reality he was thinking "mediocre/half decent"
"What doesn't kill me, kills me more slowly." Someone embroider that on a pillow for me. :P
I thought "why die slowly if you can die quickly" xD that record dude is so quotable!
straight hair will make your bowing straight...
-An apple a day keep -*-Ling Ling-*- away-
Rather I'd want Ling Ling to possess me and maybe give me some of his skill
*cronch*
Watching this after a terribly demoralizing session at orchestra rehearsal. My third time going for orchestra practice and I feel like I'm the least experienced musician in the group and am feeling so stressed out.
Keep at it, you can do it!
I felt the same way! Keep practicing, it'll get better
keep do it! dont give up!! you can do it!!
You got my like for that "You are a sexy beast" line 😂😎👏
I'm shocked that I needed to look for this comment for so long ...
I don't really comment on videos, and I can't believe that I would ever become one of those "I'm early!" commenters and I don't really want to become one of those people. I just want to say that I really enjoy these Backstage with Ray videos. You're really inspirational and also funny and human at the same time, showing the world how you deal with performance nervousness, which is always helpful. If you are really feeling sick, give yourself as much of a break as you can and practice, because I've been told that practicing makes you get better faster!
he's so chaotic and i love it
Ray Chen the GOAT
Why is ray chilling backstage giving me performance anxiety
I know right??
Keep hilarious in backstage, take-it-easy in staccato, yet serious in every pitchnote, your performance is 100% entertaining.
always start with the hair analogy lmao
Really love his pithy metaphors that connect his hair with his music.
6:12 Glow in the dark paint arrows pointing to the stage door because too many soloists could not find the door in the moment of panic in the dark before a performance.
I love dork Ray! Even the conductor is shaking her head haha
So encouraging to see that even he gets nervous.
Ray really sounds American now huh. Then - 2:29 ..........nevermind
When he's with twoset, his accent comes back full force
@@chajang7292 I've been so confused since watching him with twoset, and been binging his videos trying to figure out if he's American or not.
@@StarFireHarmony its quite amazing how accents can change over time, for example gillian anderson of x files has an interchangeable british and american accent
That counting down from 5 makes me really nervous even though I am just sitting in front of my PC.
5:33 “Boom, final boss” *Sans Undertale entered the chat*
Oh my gosh…we have the same humor😂 If we were desk mates we would be unstoppable and drive everyone crazy🤣🤣🤣
なんて、サービス精神が旺盛なんでしょう。舞台に出る寸前までオフの彼なの？凄い切り替えで、超人的。貴重な動画をアップしてくださって、ありがとう!
"Everything was my favourite"
So cute❤
Imagine one of the kid was like : Your intonation was off by 1/64th tone
Am I the only one, that also feels that nervousness in the the last minute before his performance?
I mean I am a musician too and I think every musician knows that specific feeling in your stomach.
And that's exactly, what I felt watching this😂😂
For some reason i was as nervous as he was lol
I can’t even tell you how much I wish I could see this guy perform live
I wonder if Aaron Rosand watches the silly antics of his former student. I’m old school, but I must admit to laughing at some of his clownish stuff. Chen has a monstrous talent. And I admire how he inspires so many with his ready smile and genuine friendliness. But I truly hope that he continues to push himself to reach his full potential so that he will be regarded as one of the great artists of his time and not just a talented entertainer.
Ray cited Bruce Lee (unintentionally or intentionally) very well. Honestly express yourself. He's doing that in spades!
Go cry into your monocle elsewhere
Most people on internet don't realise how hard is to play as a soloist, but those who play and study violin really enjoy this kind of back stage preparation, actors and actresses do this all the time but classical musicians don't have this... I really enjoy seeing him as a normal person but we know that he is not just a pretty face 🙂🙂🙂
Ray is going to be like the best violinist and dad
1:59 I think you made the harpist's day right then and there!
I was at your concert!! Sooo cool to watch now what was going on while I was sitting up in the audience haha, the concert and your performance was inspiring and magical :D
“Don’t come in I’m naked”
I died at that part lmao
The moment you walked on the stage - LOVE IT! I am so missing this, playing on a stage with an orchestra.
Thanks man, I really appriciate these videos
Love the toy story characters when the guy said toi toi toi 😂
I really hope to see Ray live one time.
In the mean time, more of these please!
You are maximum fun 😀
Thank you for sharing!
What a life! Awesome young musician!
I love whoever edited this. Literally made my day❤
Cool!! Please do more of this kind of videos hehe 😊 so cool to see your activities backstage!! You are awesome Ray!!
I enjoy your back stage video. You're Amazing soloist & teachers with wonderful personality. Bravo!!!
Oh my gosh this is so funny. Make more of these videos please Ray!
Oh my god excited for his concert today in Toronto!
Hello from México, thanks for sharing!✌🎻🎶
This video honestly is a WHOLE mood
Very professional play violin all the best Ray Chen
Such a great post. As an orchestral player myself, it's nice to see someone show the combination of pre-show backstage jitters and prepping ("am I getting sick?"), but also the great feeling when it's gone well and you have moved people. AND..it's over! :) :)
im really excited to see who wins playwithray ngl
Watching this makes me so happy :’)
There is this, and then there is Ray going all shy and blushing on live streams...
For minute 4:00 it's like everything around c :P
I don't have perfect pitch.
Got just relative ;-;
I am laughing way too hard omg 😂😂 consider me enamoured by your chaotic pre-performance energy
Wonderfull- i saw in Brasil Maksoud Teather. Bravissimo!
I started beeing really nervous, then the show, then I felt so good!
Enjoying your channel very much.
I don‘t know why I just love that video... Already watched it like 10 times hahaha
Ray you're great craic!
I love Ray Chen's backstage videos.
Oh my gosh he is so cute and hilarious! Well done! Funny and inspiring.
I'm pretty sure Ray it's definitely introverted, he has a lot of traits that indicates that. But I loved the video, to know that Even a world class violinist like him gets so nervous before he gets in action, makes him even more like us
i have a concert today...
**sleeping intesefies**
ray chen is my spirit animal
i enjoy how ur violin says hello to u back
Very nice personality!
The editing is on point!
finding that lovely spot in Ravel's Tzigane at 1:54 was very nice to watch! Just violin and harp! :)
Your accent is so American now XD
Ray looking pink and blooming after his performance is 👌🔥🌌😘
This is just a BTS of a professional being a pro on stage and being a crackhead.
Ray Chen is the best :)
So cute!!!😻😻
Just by watching this I'm nervous already 😂😂
NICE young spirit!!!

Ray Chen: When IRON MAN puts on his suit....
Me: Haha..

No matter what, I beg you never lose humbleness.

But good on you.
Thank you for talking your backstage! ☺️
You're so cute and handsome at the same time 🥺🥺
