    This is inspiring.

    I’m 15 and I play the violin and have been since I was about 9 years old. I’m by no means a prodigy of any sort (just average skill), but this was incredible. One heck of a violin solo. You are your own orchestra! haha

    Keep up the great work. I can only hope to be this good one day!

    Loads of respect,
    Marianna

    gotta love the guitar slung on your back at the same time! for a while i thought you might break out with a rock guitar loops as well!

  11. davoskim Says:

    It takes some time to adjust, but once you do, you’ll never want to go back.

  12. davoskim Says:

    Thank you! Don’t ever give up!

    well done!

  15. krnriceboi2 Says:

    Is playing a 5 string violin any harder than playing a 4 string? Does it take getting used to or what? C strings are awesome…

  16. krzyargentinakid Says:

    Just to clear up the last comment’s question, he chose to do that because it adds to the song’s phrasing. He does it intentionally.

  17. narutogeekfan Says:

    have you havnt memorized the notes yet because in the middle part you were switching speed from slow to fast and then back to slow

  18. FatalKnight Says:

    Very nice, are you using the Jazz Zeta bridge?

  19. davoskim Says:

    Thanks for your comment, take a look at when I vibrato throughout the whole video. Some notes I choose to vibrato at the beginning, some I don’t. I pick and choose my spots mainly for phrasing especially when I am using the loopstation.

  20. violaman777 Says:

    Cool, I wish I had a 5 string. just a tip. try to vibrato throughout the notes, instead of starting with none, adding some, and then stopping before you go to the next note.

  21. rroberts02 Says:

    Right, add’s the viola’s C string

  22. timothyngim Says:

    Makes playing harder-heavy guitar

  23. freacious Says:

  24. AznGunGrave Says:
