      Look up Frank Zappa's album "Hot Rats." Features absolutely top tier playing by Sugarcane Harris and Jean-Luc Ponty, both of whom are titans of jazz violin. Mahavishnu Orchestra also featured amazing violin work from Jerry Goodman on their first three albums "The Inner Mounting Flame," "Birds of Fire," and "Between Nothingness and Eternity." More recent acts like the jazz-prog-metal-who really knows ensemble Thank You Scientist and electroswing legends Caravan Palace are keeping jazz violin in the zeitgeist.

    I’ll never understand why some people think some instruments, “can’t play jazz.” I can almost understand that statement theoretically as some instruments that are played only in singular keys will be severely limited when some tunes modulate through multiple key centers-but even then you can improvise rhythmically like many percussionists do.

    Do people still really believe that violins don't belong in jazz? What about banjo? Clarinet? Tuba? Lots of the early jazz instruments got pushed out in the big band era and bebop, etc., and don't end up in high school or college jazz ensembles anymore. But so what? They're part of the roots and legacy of the genre! And have people never heard Western swing? That's basically just big band jazz with vocals and violins (or, as they probably call them, "fiddles"). Literally any instrument can be part of any genre if the player has sensitivity, chops and style. But the violin in particular can definitely belong in jazz, and I didn't know that was even controversial!

    Mark O'Connor is phenomenal! He's a bluegrass master, a very creative composer and arranger and just incredible when improvising. As a classical violinist myself, his renditions of Bach's solo pieces are at least very interesting and captivating, as he integrates fiddle technique in the repetitions imitating the embellishments of the baroque period. Furthermore, his own Caprice for solo violin dedicated to the legend Yehudi Menuhin was a mandatory piece in Menuhin Competitions some years ago. This, I think, is the powerful connection music should bring among different genres and musicians!
