Can we get some geneticists to try and extract the musical gene out of this guy?! This is absolute otherworldly insanity in the best way possible and I am blessed to share the same planet as this gentleman!
WOW! Just ran across this looking for old English carols for my voice students! I was fortunate enough to have Rory play with me in concert and record my gypsy jazz cd, "Mystery of Love". But here's a surprising other side to a musical genius that I didn't see coming! DELIGHTFUL!!!
wow what an amazing perfomance. i have literally no words to describe how happy this tune makes me. you made my day rory, such a beautiful sound! Happy new year
Finally got to meet and hear you with the Transatlantic guitar trio in Parkville Mo.! A mutual friend from Nashville told me about you years ago. You are truly beyond belief! I would love to hear you with another of my favorite musicians, Jacob Collier!
this is a master peice! i wish you would cover many more songs on your channel... absolutely fantastic sounds, bring joy to my day!.... amazingly talented, Rory hoffman! bravo this will be my new christmas song watching this!
This video was such a delight holy cow lol. I was looking up xaphoon videos and came across this and just watched it with the family. I'm checking out some of the other instruments here, too.
I speak this out loud as I say, you Are Such a True Gift to This World! Thank you so very much for sharing your Amazingly Beautiful Talents in such a multicultural fascinating instrumentalist take on a Traditional dear sweet heart of an American Winter Classic!
Incredible, Rory! Very creative and fun using different instruments from around the world! Have you ever heard of a berimbau? It's a musical instrument used in Brazil when people do capoeira! Just an idea for your repetoire! ;)
I don't know that instrument, but I'm always interested in finding more cool stuff. Maybe I should start a patrion for people to help me fund buying every instrument haha.
I was just curious about the bass harmonica and somehow I ended up here. I mean, I just want to play The Boxer, or Sanford and Son, or Bumpus Hounds... and a partridge in a pear tree.
Christmas as God wants you to celebrate is not eith idolatry as pagan christmastree and santa in fact, God wants His children to repent, and make music to His honor, God invented music and musicinstruments in heaven to express Gods thanksgiving, if you hear ore read this repent and put away idolatry and any image, Jesus is the only King of King may it become Christmas in your hart, Jesus is coming very soon, if you become a newborn child of God God wil very soon take His children home, every blind will see and every theaf will hear, every sickness will disapear may God bless you, may he become, the central person in your hart, Shalom,
If there is going to be a inter- galactic talent show, Rory H. should represent our planet.
There's natural talent and there's cultivated talent. You, sir, have ample reserves of both!!!!
How does this not have millions of views?! Amazing job! Thanks for sharing so many great and interesting instruments with us!

HOW ABOUT RORY AND JACOB COLLIER?
I'd definitely do that. He's exceptional.
@@RoryHoffmanMusic Why not adapt Mark Brymer's arrangement of The Greatest Show for instruments you have?
@@RoryHoffmanMusic You where strumming the Qanun with both hands, and that's quite harp like.
@@RoryHoffmanMusic You can play the Qanun with picks.
Absolutely flipping fantastic... thank you so much for sharing: what an amazing talent you are!
