It's always some idiots that dont like pure form musicians. Why are they even listening if it's not your thing. Its like me listening to heavy metal and giving it a thumbs down when I dont listen to it and judging it cause it's not my thing.
Completely agree sir! I just found this gem this morning of August 4th 2020. 271 thumbs down as of this morning😨 We have truly crossed Dimensions and are now living in an Upside Down Reality 🙃.
Who listening in 2020. Everybody will remember these days. The world on lock down from the Covi 19 virus all over the world and just went to one of the artist that can bring joy.
This Man right here is beyond talented and not to mention humbled and very friendly to his fans, he is a true musician, that embraces all kinds of music, from classical to hip hop, he is the hardest working violinist out there these days, and if you live in Ny, Nj, or Connecticut area, he is having a concert in February on the 9th at the Highline ballroom doors open at 6
The Music is surreal!!! The violin was never like this before. This is music perfection ya'll. If you haven't experienced Damien Escobar then you haven't experienced anything.
Don't know if you have heard Damien's (G.U.A.D) aka "Get Up and Dance" you will simply devour that song. Had to put him on my list of favorite violinists. Phew!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i ride the bus often. I wear my headphones of course but there have been many teens that have asked me what I am listening to. and that makes my day. Its now turned into a goal of mine to introduce as many young people as I can to Damien's music.
Half of the kids in the United States have NEVER seen a violin and the Only reason they Know what a Flute IS, is because of Lizzo! Not Shade........ I KNEW of Instruments, EARLY......it was in ALL the Cartoons, I watched as a kid and I've LOVED Instruments, every sense!
Mr. Escobar, I felt each and every note as you played this song. I love that you made the arrangement in a lower register. This added a depth to this cover that I have not heard. Love it!🎻
+Mario Rubino I was actually referring to views. Most of his original content doesn't receive anywhere near the views as this cover did, even though imo, the originals are even better.
"Thank you" Lord for such a deep and talented man by the name of Damien Escobar.. He seems to be the closest man to you that I listen to no matter my feelings mood or what I'm going through.. I run to him and his music the way I run to you with my arms ears eyes mind body and spirit wide open repeatedly without disappointment.. His performances blow me away every time with a smile inside out of my entire being Hallelujah Glory to God he's a blessed 😇.
I hate to ask about "original" works on something amazing like this, I understand "cover" but to translate something that was not originally performed or wrote with pure violin in mine and perform it so amazing that you feel all the pieces without words is almost original and unique in itself...then you have to wonder is it really a cover?
I had not listened to you before, but I am a lover of the violin. It is my favorite instrument and when I listen to it in your hands, I am inspired to write a song. Thank you and may God bless you.
Saw this wonderful violinist is St Louis. He is AWESOME!! I went alone but now wish I had shared the experience with someone, ANYONE! EVERYONE should be blessed by his talent!!
I had the pleasure to see DAMIEN ESCOBAR last night at Sony Hall in New York. AMAZING, AMAZING and AMAZING I'm IN LOVE.......I cant wait to see HIM AGAIN. He has gained a FAN for LIFE
I heard "Phoenix" on the WAVE yesterday while driving and was smitten. I said to myself who is this violinist. The song was still playing all through my soul when I got home late last night I took a short nap and got up still hearing that song in my soul so I looked up Damien Escobar online and I have been stuck here listening since 2:00 am this morning. HELP ME SOMEBODY...I am in love with the violin! I even like the Black Violins!!!
I went to Damien's show in NY on 2/9/16, and had the time of my life. Damien plays his violin as if he were talking directly to you. (smile). This is an artist that I adore and love whatever he plays. One of my favorite to add to my collection. God Bless You! young man.
This is a beautiful song already...but you put a different beauty on it...the melody from your violin 🎻 is wonderful!! Bravo bravo Damien Escobar!! 🔥🎶👏💪
Yoh this guy is exceedingly, hugely, gigantically, extremely and conspicuously talented. This is creativity at its best. I am 100% sure that he is a South African. South Africa is got talent. Great stuff may brother.
idk WHY but I feel every note you play in any song I feel is one note closer to my soul, such a beautiful violinist. I have to hear you life. talent is REAL
If it wasnt for hi interpretation of modern music through violin, i dont think i would have ever been introduced to the perspective that violinist see music through, beautiful
You sir are the true definition of an artist. The emotion and feelings all come to play when you can just sit down and lose your self in the music. And sir you are a gifted man. Goodluck to your future and your music. God bless.
You make that bow so-eloquently sing and dance across those strings like a ballerina performing in her best moment, and capturing that moment in life where reflection meets enlightenment down the path toward a city called journey.
Damien!! Bizzy Amor did u right on this video.. it hits you right in the heart. the beginning of a new relationship.. butterflies in my stomach... will he call or should I call... fondly remembering the first date.. anxious... all wrapped up in this beautiful soulful song.. blessings
This guy makes my heart smile even if i feel to cry... When i want to runaway he makes me want to dance... If i was heartbroken he raises something in me that i cannot give up... i have to wake up another day to hear him play ❤💓💖
You just gained a subscriber. I found you through your purple rain cover, and was VERY impressed! This is the third thing I've watched and I'm already subscribing! You deserve it, you're amazing!
Just saw this cat on NBC LX. I just love this brother! His life, his family, his children. God Bless him and his loved ones! I hope to have a chance to see him perform live. I understand he will retire from live performances soon.
your amazing!! I fell in love all over again with the beauty within them strings...buying your CD's ..thank you so much for sharing your talent with each and everyone of us!!
Up to this point, all I'd heard was your originals. I only kind of like this song, but when you play it, just like everything else, it just makes me want to dance... and cry. I wish I was a lyrical ballet dancer so I could do your music justice. As it is, I will just have to match what you make me feel to the images in my head. Thank you!
Hi Damon 🙂 I am a Belgian woman of 57 and my name is Lieve. Today I discovered you here and heard you playing for the first time in my life. Your music is really awesome! It makes me unbelievably happy every time I see and hear you playing . Thank you so much! 😄 #DISCOVER
+Lieve Leysen I absolutely agree. I discovered him not long ago and I like his talent and humility very much. In his attitute I see much similarity to my favorite Italian singer composer TIZIANO FERRO. I'm a Hungarian women of 53. :)
This song reminds me of a gentleman that passed away loved him dearly it may not be the intent of the player yet it always brings tears to my eyes and my heart it makes me miss him
@BohemianSol you couldn’t have said it any better. Good music and good talent is rare these days. So when you discover it, learn to cherish and appreciate it!!!! ✌🏾👌🏾👍🏾👏🏾💯🎻
Saw him perform in Raleigh ,NC. He opened up for Boney James and I really was blown away at with his performance. Smooth jazz has been overlooked and I pray its popularity returns. Almost every city in America that had a smooth jazz radio station either shut down or got replaced by other genres of music. I personally feel it was done on purpose because it was the one music we could listen to that was so classy and professional. Years ago I had the pleasure of meeting Marion Meadows and he said that he was concerned that these stations would disappear. Some say that internet radio is just as good or better but I respectively disagree. When an entire jazz community is listening to the same tracks at the same time on their way from work and an announcement of a show coming to your area people get excited. I miss that so much because it allowed me to be around positive people, allowed me network with others, and I felt the environment was super safe. No shooting and quite honestly no people that made me feel embarrassed because of their ratchet ways. Just venting and I would love someones feedback.
I'm with you 100% Michael. I was listening to the smooth jazz station in Pittsburgh the day it went off the air. I had to pick myself up off the floor. I don't know but I think part of the demise of the stations is that they were too restricted on what they played. You would think that George Benson only made Broadway or Breezin', and that Pat Metheny had yet to create anything. Still miss it though.
Whomever gave this a thumbs down is tone deaf. This is flawless.
I agree and they need to not listen to music in its purist form.
then they are not deserving of the honor of appreciating this amazing human being.
It's always some idiots that dont like pure form musicians. Why are they even listening if it's not your thing. Its like me listening to heavy metal and giving it a thumbs down when I dont listen to it and judging it cause it's not my thing.
Their just jealous he can play better than them 👍 This was absolutely beautiful !
Completely agree sir!
I just found this gem this morning of August 4th 2020.
271 thumbs down as of this morning😨
We have truly crossed Dimensions and are now living in an Upside Down Reality 🙃.
What the world needs now, is more Damien Escobar!!!
definitely
+TheBohemianSol , Most definitely!!
and josh vietti
Amen... Would help w/ grieving of Prince, for sure.
He's awesome!!!!!!
Who listening in 2020. Everybody will remember these days. The world on lock down from the Covi 19 virus all over the world and just went to one of the artist that can bring joy.
Did...yes now it's 2024...ty
Actually 11 27 22 🤩
Still listing in 2024
I had the pleasure of seeing Dame Esco perform in Dallas about a month ago. I was spellbound the moment he took the stage. Truly a mesmerizing night.
Kimberly Bouie I bet it was!! I'm waiting for him to get here in May!!!!
Jakki Washington How was the performance?
This Man right here is beyond talented and not to mention humbled and very friendly to his fans, he is a true musician, that embraces all kinds of music, from classical to hip hop, he is the hardest working violinist out there these days, and if you live in Ny, Nj, or Connecticut area, he is having a concert in February on the 9th at the Highline ballroom doors open at 6
Some artist are crude to their fans, and all they want is fame and fortune. But, this artist, is kind to his fans like you said.
Yes he is 😊
Lorraine Wedderburn talented, kind, and attractive!
The Music is surreal!!!
The violin was never like this before. This is music perfection ya'll.
If you haven't experienced Damien Escobar then you haven't experienced anything.
You Sir are a Musical Genius!!! Our children need music that touches the soul.... They are too insensitive..... Bravo!
Don't know if you have heard Damien's (G.U.A.D) aka "Get Up and Dance" you will simply devour that song. Had to put him on my list of favorite violinists. Phew!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i ride the bus often. I wear my headphones of course but there have been many teens that have asked me what I am listening to. and that makes my day. Its now turned into a goal of mine to introduce as many young people as I can to Damien's music.
I haven't had a song without lyrics bring tears to my eyes in a long time. This is gorgeous.
Me and you both this man is a gift from god that violin speaks to my soul and overwhelms me to tears everytime
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Your favorite artist will never sound better then a violin, if you disagree you never heard a good violin.
great !!
Half of the kids in the United States have NEVER seen a violin and the Only reason they Know what a Flute IS, is because of Lizzo! Not Shade........
I KNEW of Instruments, EARLY......it was in ALL the Cartoons, I watched as a kid and I've LOVED Instruments, every sense!
That's music
This song touches your heart ❤️.
All you can do is just melt.
1🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
This young man is awesome! What a beautiful rendition of this song. Damien, your musical success will be off the charts!
There's a sense of pain and peace in this song that gets me every time...painfully beautiful...
Love him and his violin
um yes me too
amazing i absolutely adore the talent and love the sound of the violin he truly makes it sound lovely
it amazes me how you feel music with every cell of your body.... and soul
barozra I have been telling him that same thing!!
barozra it's all you that u feel %)blessed and beautiful u all are
To see a love and compassion that God blessed you with and used it to soothed, heal and help others with their talents, it what it's all about.
Mr. Escobar, I felt each and every note as you played this song. I love that you made the arrangement in a lower register. This added a depth to this cover that I have not heard. Love it!🎻
You put the funk on this - my shoulders and toes lost total control! What a gift God has blessed you with!
So it took a cover for people to finally see your greatness. With that said, this needs to be available for download because this cover is awesome.
Agreed :)
Right
AGREE
Well actually it just needs to be available for sale so we can support him.... Cause there are UA-cam to mp3 sites out there
+Mario Rubino I was actually referring to views. Most of his original content doesn't receive anywhere near the views as this cover did, even though imo, the originals are even better.
His music gives me life.
"Thank you" Lord for such a deep and talented man by the name of Damien Escobar.. He seems to be the closest man to you that I listen to no matter my feelings mood or what I'm going through..

search my soul to all levels of music,i am now stuck here,Damien Escobar you are a classic artist,you are around the globe and back
Don't ever take your talent for granted Damien! And don't ever hide your light under a bushel! Let it shine! You're talent is absolutely God given!
I had not listened to you before, but I am a lover of the violin. It is my favorite instrument and when I listen to it in your hands, I am inspired to write a song. Thank you and may God bless you.
I am crying real tears,not because im sad,but because when you play,your violin speaks the most beautiful language.
Bruh be killin it for real

You can clearly see this man found his passion. And my heart sighs
You may be wondering, "This is a masterpiece." I'm sure Mr. Escobar can do even more greater work.
I went to Damien's show in NY on 2/9/16, and had the time of my life. Damien plays his violin as if he were talking directly to you. (smile). This is an artist that I adore and love whatever he plays. One of my favorite to add to my collection. God Bless You! young man.

I could never listen to this in public - it is sooo beautiful I could not stop crying!!

Michael Bradford
Keep making that "fiddle" sing! Yea I know it's a violin...AWESOME.
If we could tune out the chaos and listen to a Violin Sing, music is soulful and soothing-life should be as simple.
I love that meddling of the sound of a violinist.
idk WHY but I feel every note you play in any song I feel is one note closer to my soul, such a beautiful violinist. I have to hear you life. talent is REAL
Wow, this is just a beautiful rendition man!
