    I went to Ray's concert on Sunday and I have to say, it was one of the most wonderful and fun concert experiences ever! His Tchaik was just soooo playful and yet sweet, lots of push and pull, especially in the first and third movement and it was simply unbelievable to witness this live! Thank you so much, Ray for sharing this wonderful music! Absolutely adored your performance!!! And what made me cry was actually the encore, Waltzing Mathilda! Thank you so much for putting in fourty hours of practice every day!

  • @ajsliter
    @ajsliter 3 дня назад +1

    I'd call your rendition of Rush E a string and bow buster for sure. I've seen players be that aggressive with a violin before and from what I can tell either their strings or bow would give out before finishing something like that. I may have only been with the violin very early on in my music journey and only for less than 2 years, but even now (since settling on the Bassoon) I've seen even the most talented string virtuosos break their instrument during a performance and had to borrow the concertmaster's instrument either mid gig or mid passage. Massive Respect for getting all the way through without the bow or even a single string breaking. To see it performed on a Stradivarius, the rare as hens teeth violin that is expensive as hell, is the most beautiful and also the the most tense I've felt when listening to a violin performance.

    BIG UPS TO YOU FOR THIS! Honestly, this is such a great interpretation and I adored watching your process as you engaged with the music. It was palpable how you enjoyed the process and watching your face light up with excitement as you NAILED IT was really such a joy.
    If you want something else to do, I would LOVE to see you coordinate with some other high quality musicians together to make a full rendition of this as a symphony piece. I personally think that the reason it's 'impossible' to play is because it takes so many hands on the piano (and it's electronically made), but having all of those hands available and playing would be PHENOMENAL to see and hear.
