    She should have won BGT. I don't think enough people have an appreciation for the violin or cello.
    Put them in the hands of someone like Lettice Rowbotham or Lindsey Stirling and it becomes the vessel for a passionate masterpiece.

    • @theloneranger8725
      @theloneranger8725 10 лет назад +6

      I think if she had played something like this song or at least similar, she would have fared better and finished higher at BGT. After her audition, her choice of songs was not really good for this type of competition. Although they showed her skill as a violinist, in this type of program you have to give the audience and judges pure excitement and riveting entertainment, which she just did not do in her last two performances. Love her though and hope she cuts an album for us.

    • @Myvoetisseer
      @Myvoetisseer 10 лет назад +1

      Maybe, maybe not. She's really good, but on the same stage as Collabro, Jack Pack and Lucy Kay she's not the best.

      @theloneranger8725 10 лет назад

      @HBKCommish 10 лет назад

      The equipment could be better for sure, but that's not the only problem here. He's also not singing into the mic. It's off to the side and it's picking up a lot of reverb. Which leads me to my next point. Sound proofing foam! But I don't know why he's not singing into the mic? Both instruments are on their own inputs, so the mic is free to be moved closer. But yeah he also needs a better mic with a pop filter or you're going to get distortion either way, particularly on those high notes.

      Didn't notice the lav mic. But that raises even more questions, then it answers. Why is he using a shitty lav mic, when he has a decent one off to the side? Lav mics tend to be very omnidirectional microphones, which explains the reverb he's getting.
