Super cool for you to do this man! You're gonna end up changing somebody's life with one of those violins!
Ray i love your jacket !
@isaacchapul269 mr music joker ??? If you think youre better than him why dont you prove it
@isaacchapul269 better go practice grammar , and music !
And FYI you're the only joker here
@isaacchapul269 music is a joke ? If music was a joke for him he wouldn't have been globally known as a famous professional violinist . If music WASNT a joke for you , you wouldn't be here calling proffesionals jokers .
He’s very nice and very friendly
My daughter is the lucky girl who win the violin we are so happy for her she really needed.
Especially thanks to Ray Chen we are very grateful thank you so much.;and congratulations to all participants .
Congratulations!! She was lovely! And her outlook on music was beautiful. I hope she enjoys that violin, she deserves it!
@@ValiantVicuna thank you 🙏
We are so very very happy and very grateful 💕thank you for your nice words.
oooh this melts my heart. congrats not only for having a little talent as a daughter but also for raising her so well with such a great attitude. keep on with good parenting and your daughter will make her way in whatever she will be doing in future!
@@ChiefHerzensCoach thank you 🙏 so much
She has been inspired by Ling Ling!
Little girl sealed her fate by having the best reason for wanting a violin. Always fun to see Ray working with kids. Also I loved that girl hitting the cowbell.
Facts it was all about intention
@@3XCube86she probably would have been if she had her own personal violin, she definitely deserves it
Probably the majority of people weren't as good as Ray, but like this girl, they were deemed more worthy to receive the reward
@@3XCube86I mean none were better than Ray but all got money, same with her. The reason she won cus people think she has the best reason to have the violin. I mean like who needs a backup violin, only professionals require one
she won because she a girl
"sound better when reversed" emotional damage x40.
Ling Ling 40 hours
Compliment and insult at the same time 😂
LMAOOO POOR KENNY
only practice on hard mode
Backhanded compliment
How the heck does does a guy like Ray exist. Looks perfect, plays perfect, interacts perfect and can actually host!
... and is such a fun guy to boot! I also love how he does his damnedest to encourage music in the young. Quite some fella!
@@wakingtheworldbecause we think to learn we need to give up fun, and become like a monk, or spend so much time, we have become socially not adaptive
@@goblinsRule Well I'm still very much a kid despite my advancing years... & continue to do crazy stuff! Children teach you to see the world through their eyes. Adults are all too familiar with rain & snow but to a child this is wondrous & exciting. If ever we get any white stuff, I'm out there with my carrot making a snowman. Ray's Bach duet was such fun for the youngsters watching it. Violin swaps, conductor swaps, all hilarious!
My exact words
I have a question what is the violin music at the beginning of the background that sounds very beautiful
The fact that they could play so well with the string swapped is amazing
This is the reason why you should practice with both hands! 😂

Next time somebody asks me how old I am I’m gonna tell them “Vivaldi” with a completely straight face
i wondered wether the boy might be an autist and be VERY VERY nervous and challenged speaking even a little in public. he seemed so much more confident when playing the violin.
You beat me to it! Let's start a movement... 🤣
I’m gonna do that. Although I’m sure no one would understand and I’ll just embarrass myself.
I think he was saying his own name, Vitaly.
@@The-WordsmithI'll take the first movement from Spring
Ray is the type of violinist to interact with people in the most friendly way and also have a great sense of humor. Keep it up, Ray!
The "Need a back-up violin!" killed me 😂
... and his father's reaction - I could feel it from here!
All the contestants did a great job, I loved their good humour and can-do attitude. The crowd also worked perfectly together to rob Ray blind.
The defeated transition from paganini to howl's moving castle at 12:53 made me cackle out loud
Lol I reckon that
Bro i love that anime❤❤
Look, it has to go somewhere, right? Either keep faking it or transition to a known piece. It was subtle, too, so Yay!
Imagine a plot twist ... Maxim Vengerov is one of the contestants 🤣
OMG I would have died HAHAHA!
underrated comment
Hilary Hahn coming from behind...
Ling ling winning with no sweat

Ray, bring the busker back! I'm glad the girl won but he actually played the best and there's some real talent there. He seemed very introverted and didn't sell himself very well, but I found him fantastic and also the fact that he wanted a violin for busking could mean he may have some money issues. I'd love to hear him more, his sound was great, he just was holding back verbally. Love what you do, Ray, you're a Ray of sunshine!! Much love from Germany!
Violinst influencer that actually a master is what we need in this world!
That was the first time Ray played Paganini 1 and he did it without sheet music? That's incredible.
He shows why he is a pro! I think he has some kind of perfect pitch too.
@@xandraxandra1437 I don't think he has perfect pitch but he definitely has a very very well-tuned ear! You can practice recognizing different notes through repeated practice. I think he mentioned that he doesn't have perfect pitch on a video.
@@jadeo1875 That's why a wrote "some kind of", because I wasn't sure what's called. I too have heard him saying he hasn't have perfect pitch.
@@xandraxandra1437 oh I see. No worries :)
@@jadeo1875Not just that but figuring out the fingering and having pretty good intonation that quickly is pretty impressive
Lol the All D violin was cold blooded nice one
Was the perfect piece for it too 😂 "suddenly 30 seconds feels very long" 😂 just...all his shade in that part was hilarious 😂😂😂
The little girl really brought tears to my eyes...Ray and all the audiences were all so warm and friendly!
Me too!!!
Same. She was so sweet and cute!!!!
The little girl motivated me because I'm learning how to play and sometimes I become discouraged ❤
Kenny definitely knows how to carry the conversation. haha
When your an entertainer you keep talking, asking questions, repeating things that happened. No dead air. I completely agree he knows what he is doing.
Ray, we love you, and you did a fantastic job with the kids, especially with the manipulated violins. But, we are partial to struggling college students. I thoroughly enjoyed watching you broaden not only your horizon, but to raise the bar for the students. It was a lifetime opportunity to compete against you. They will treasure this learnong and growth. Seeing the adaptation was phenomenal. Sorry they robbed you blind. The crowd was blissfully biased for the kids.
great job building up students. that's what a master does. not sit on a pile of glory, but to give it out and give it away!!!! I love your encouragement to students. fantastic work.
Cow Bell Girl cracks me up. Every time she hits it, she flinches LOL
Ray's jovial personality just shines through in this video! He's great with the audience and the kids, who I think will always cherish the memory of sharing the stage with Ray.
You're kind, humble, funny, a true artist. A beautiful person. We need more people like you in this crazy world. ❤
This was such a fun day! Thank you for giving us the opportunity to have such a fun time! I also made a new friend thanks to this (April if u see this, I love uuuuu❤❤❤) I found some of the contenders on tonic as well and go into their practice rooms! Thank you for building such a nice, wholesome community🩷
Love u toooooo!! Such a fun activity that bring people who love classical music together~
Thanks, Ray Chen, for making classical music more "people friendly" by taking it out of the concert hall and in that way maybe inspire more young people to engage with it!
OMG that was amazing!
Being mother of a 13yo son I so laughed when Ray said: „Don’t turn 13, that is what happens!“ And he is absolutely right… 😂
Really, Ray, you are a great violinist and a bright , cheerful person who makes me look forward to next !!✨✨👑🥇💯🎻
So adorable & heartwarming. 💗 And the violin winner! 💖. And 👏👏👏 for everyone's bravery. Epic event! 😄
More of this absolutely! Bring in other professionals, TwoSet, all kinds of fun challenges. What a great way to make entertaining content while also giving back to kids pursuing music!
I am very happy for the sweet girl who won the violin, 🎻 they all played so well 👏👏 kudos 🎻🎶
this is so wholesome and beautiful, thank you so much Ray, and to Kennedy Violins and to the Colburn School!!! All the challengers were amazing!! I showed this video to a friend who is a aspiring artist [illustration] and when the young girl said not to give up even though you make a mistake she cried watching that. Thank you so much, your words have really moved her to keep going. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
❤️❤️
The mastery of the craft is clear. Keep inspiring us with amazing work!
That little girl motivated me, because I'm a begginer/intermediate and sometimes it gets so difficult
On behalf of Mr Kenny G, his instrument is the soprano sax. Violin is his side instrument. 😅
You're such a kind personality. Love you for being so friendly.
I like the way u r,Ray, never stop to give-share-learn..Thanks for ur every effort! 🎉
So fun! And glad she won. They all did great!
The bully is being bullied by the audience 🤣✨
I love how everyone is so happy and having such a good time!!!
Watched this with my husband. This was such a fun challenge. I play nothing but am still a fan.
Congratulations to the young lady who won! You can just see her love for the 🎻.
All contestants did great 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽.
The best RUclipsr's competition/challenge I've ever watched in RUclips!
The best crowd too! 😄😊
I am so excited to see who can beat the king!!!
Him and Roman Kim are the best ones in the 21st century 4 me
@@Kerry-i4s oh yesss ! I like anne sophie mutter too , in pop , lindsey stirling composes unforgettable hits
I rarely comment on videos and this is the first of your videos I’ve come by. I love your fun personality and kindness. ❤
Ray, you are so wonderful with kids. Fun vid
I am not a violinist but that was really special how you brought people together to support one another. Keep up the good work
you're one of my favourite violinists yet so friendly and down-to-earth, love that!
It’s really cool to hear Ray play the pieces back to back after the contestants
You are touching the lives of young violinists
I want to join the challenge too
I hope I among the 99
Rey Chen is such a good guy with good hearted charisma. A VERY fun video
Just started watching a few violin videos (you stumble onto one and then more and more channels and videos get recommended). Such a nice change! So much respect for people who train so hard in order to bring beautiful music to the world!
They are all so super good
I really love Ray as a violinist, but he is also an amazing content creator!
He is such a good guy. Wonderful to put yourself out there and to laugh at yourself.
It was refreshing to see only one winner at the end. If everyone would have received a violin, there would be no reason to keep practicing.
Seriously. I miss honest competition.
I’m going to assume you mean that there should be rewards only for a select few/best. This is based on the idea that this fair, merit-based award for a select few promotes productive practice. While extrinsic rewards can be a part of their motivation, I don’t think it should be the only reason they play. That tends not to be sustainably enjoyable or productive for the vast majority. I am surprised you would say that this kind of external reward is the only reason to keep practicing. Indeed, if you apply this mentality fully to any facet of life, even work life, it becomes quite depressing.
Also, I don’t see this kind of reward system as a fair or merit-based. It’s a winner-take-all scenario. There are many cases where a very competitive event has multiple levels of rewards, top prize, second place prize, all the way down. This helps make performing much fairer, rewards are based off performance, not to mention it makes it financially sustainable.
@@binabina4445 I think there are plenty of reasons why you would want to encourage participation and keep everyone feeling like a winner, and there are also situations where you would want a tiered reward system, where the best get the best rewards. Both have their place. I don’t think a (relatively harsh) winner-take-all system would be very nice for children for example. I think that’s almost never done, common sense. Maybe you have just seen many examples where performance isn’t good and rewards are given out to everyone, and you make the assumption that the poor performance is due to the reward scheme. In these cases, there are also other important factors to consider though, I don’t think we should jump to conclusions. In many cases, giving rewards to everyone is much more encouraging and fun, and may even be part of the process for building their interest in that activity. Again, context matters.
This is awesome!! And I'm super excited for the Tonic challenge, hope it'll be in 2 weeks, I have that week off so I can practice a LOT 💪
This was so cool of you to put on. More musicians need to do this. Liked & subscribed. ❤
Lauren's cowbell skills 💯💯💯💯
GIVE HER A RAISE!!!!!
Ray your are an Amazing human being with a great sense of humor and love for music my daughter is beyond impressed with you she adores you, thank you for those beautiful moments and keep going Dalia G. Dad.
Such a cool concept.. Love to see such young talent showcasing their abilities.
Lauren getting scared at the cowbell at 3:22 was the best part of this whole video 😂
Woah this is such an amazing video! This is what music is all about!! And I was so happy when Dalia won the violin, good for them!!
Thank you 🙏
Best gift ever for Dalia! See you in LA on the 27th Ray!
thank you for the giving spirit. you seem to be better on average, but I love that the crowd supports the kids
Just got hit with tears with the first piece
Ray I am so glad that youtube recommended me this video . I originally saw you learning Polyphia in 30 minutes. When a well-known artist/performer/celebrity actually goes out of their way to connect with and inspire other musicians 🥲🥲🥲🥺 That is completely priceless! I don't even play the violin! But thank you for what you do in the world. Keep it up 🥰🥰
Look at he’s face it’s so funny 5:40
The best violin competition I've ever watched and listened to.
Vitaly and Ethan should have at least gotten a consolation prize
That was fabulous!! Ray, you have such a kind soul and you epitomize what it means to invest in others. You are world renowned and still take time out of what I am sure is an insane schedule to share your talent and love of music with others. Your facial expressions are epic. I do have to ask, where did you get that jacket? It is one of coolest jackets I’ve ever seen.
why yall so mean down in the bottom of the comments 💀💀 they played better than you could ever play, and they won because its a video to make the kids happy, and also, its a music school called Colburn, in downtime LA, also why do you care if they are mostly asians? It doesnt really matter, they are just people either way.
Ray is a good man, and optionally a great musician.
I hope that little girl goes as far as she wishes with the violin 👏👏👏 very smart and determined and now she's got her own violin 🙌🙏
Loved this video
It's so nice to witness such grand performance😊
Awesome!
So encouraging!
Wow this was one of the coolest pieces of violin content I've ever seen. Next level special and heartwarming. High level but unpretentious.
She probably needed own violin the most, it’s much less pressure when you are talking to a good friend and not to psychologist😂. I think it’s gonna help faster improving. Congrats!
OMG, every one is amazing but Ray’s playing makes me goosebumps!!! Bravo 👏👏👏
Late to the party, but.. Sight reading is one thing (I know at my best, I probably still won’t ever be good enough), but playing by ear… and a piece so intricate…🤯 I’m in awe.
(The only person I know who could play with a similar level of precision was my father.)
4:37 wow that's beautifully amazing - they really jacked up that violin so many knotches!
Little girl deserved that violin 🎻 she had the best answer sure she made a mistake but,who hasn't at least she didn't give up❤🎉
I say she had the best intentions
"I love how you cleverly play with imperfections to bring out the brilliance in your guest competitors! Your unique approach to keeping classical music alive and thriving in today's age is truly inspiring. You, Ray Chen, are a genius! I want to express my deepest gratitude for rekindling my long-lost passion for classical music. Your videos are electrifying and leave me feeling revitalized, filled with boundless energy and enthusiasm. Thank you for sharing your incredible talent with the world!"
You are insane, Ray Chen, unique, unprecedented 🔥❤️
OK I will try. Because I just started to play violin 😊
I could easily beat Ray Chen in a contest.
In my sleep.
Okay, okay, in my dreams.
Kennedy Violins are Great, Awesome challenge!!!
Shout out to Lauren for a PRO cowbelling!
I was rooting for Dalia, happy she won! She finally got her own violin now!
Great Video, we need more recordings in baroque tuning so they will sound again how they where composed back in these days the halfstep down 🥰
Feel so happy the little girl won the violin!
9:55 that lady is wearing twoset apparel…let’s gooo
Ray! This was awesome!
Kudos!
I want another 1000 of these videos 😍
Congratulations to Dalia!❤ Thank you very much for this video and for this challenge!
omg that caprice Pagnini n°1 !!!!! Gavin u nailed it so haaaaaard !!!! thanks you very much
lmao he's my big brother and he did waste all the money on candy 💀
Got to see you at Brisbane doing Tchaikovsky. Amazing how much your poured everything into that performance night after night. Keep up the great work :)
So very excited to see this viedo. I maybe able to see myself
Having heard that just once, and playing it like that. Dude you are very good, I am a guitar player and studied contemporary music, but you are really insane.
I thought the sign in the thumbnail said “BEAT MEAT” for a second 😂😂😂
I really like Ray...he is so genuine.
When he was with Two-set Violin, all "hell" broke lose... (NB> The good fun I mean )
