- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 ต.ค. 2024
- With respect to Adam DeGraff of The Dueling Fiddlers, for showing that this could be done! (High School talent show, October 2011.)
In response to many questions in the Comments: I picked this up by ear from the Dueling Fiddlers album 'Rock Violin', plus the Led Zep original of course. Check out the Dueling Fiddlers' Facebook page for more awesome rock violin... or if you want the sheet music, Adam DeGraff now has it available here:
adamviolin.com/... . Check it out!
I feel sorry for those who had to make their presentations after you
i think the 37 dislikes are the other contestants. who clearly lost.
Lol true
+Flyingvoxel nolond I think they just didn't wait until it got good. People are impatient.
Also, you can just "Scrub" the time bar.
The people who clicked "dislike" thought is said "dis i like"
this kid is amazing he actually did it the violin the most hardest intrument + stairway = BRIGHT FUTURE! AWAITS
The arrangement's by Adam DeGraff... go to adamviolin(dot)com and prepare to be amazed.
I learned it by ear off his album, but you can get the sheet music at his website.
Really? ! 80 people disliked it? Obvious jealousy issues with them because this kid is awe🎵some🎶
They were the people who had to perform after him & didn't win
At the beginning I was thinking, "Oh, this is cool! Doesn't sound too hard, I bet I could learn this..." and then he got to the middle of the song and I started grinning like a maniac
Rock on, dude
This was the best 5:25 of my life. This kid is seriously going places.
Phenomenal! Excellent fingering, bowing, and pizzicato. Great tone and harmonics as well. Nice interpretation of the original rock song. Glad he kept it in the classical genre. Very well done!!!!
the audience made me cringe so bad. highschool is the most awkward time ever i wish i never had to go through that time
The audience tried to distract him but he just ignored them. Very NICE
!!
Our generation isn't completely fucked after all
people who didn't like this probably only watched the first few minutes where e everything was a bit slow.
dude.. you give me hope for humanity's future...
3:54.... Sent shivers down my spine.
3:52 amazing
Incredible stuff, solo violin impresses me so much. It's really hard to play a violin by itself and make it sound good without accompaniment. Great work
Lol the shushing at the end xD "Be quiet don't you know how the song goes!?" xD this was amazing!
+109367 Yeah, the more he played the more excited I became because you know every note of that song and you keep thing "Is he going to nail that part!"
KastaLimpa Or how is he going to nail that part on a violin :O lol
if it makes you feel better about yourself. you are the reason I started playing violin
amazing playing I give you so much props
bach x zeppelin, just lovely
4:35 gave goosebumps. Keep this up!
:points to "no stairway" sign:
+Quantic Theory No stairway? Denied!
Kid's a genius.
First minute I was like "eh" .... but then he really took off and by the last minute I was bopping my head, sitting on the edge of my seat.
Fantastic performance. Loved it.
Hey I like your shirt.
ok, just bought Adam's sheet, it's nice, little different from this version (just using lower octaves than here,but you can mix and change when you play). It's not to difficult, it needs couple of hours - but i've finished academy, so it's intermediate-high level for begginers. cheers, it's really fun though!
I rewatched the solo at least 5 times. Stupefacente!
Dude fucking kills it.
Awesome, especially the solo, sounded almost as good as it does on a guitar (and thats a huge compliment). But anyway, awesome take on a classic
I can hear the laughter behind the camera, but when he starts to play more awesome, everyone just stops laughing and listens
Wow! Can't imagine how 30 people clicked on the dislike icon!
They did it on accident
man, i thought i could play stairway on the piano pretty good but that was insane. especially the buildup midway. the awesome guitar/violin section before "And as we wind on down the road... " bow de bow de bow de bow bow now ... I didnt think you could play a violin like an electric guitar but i guess you can. best violin solo ever.
Amazing talent,i will keep up with you because I think one day,your going to be a big star. Congrads and a hundred thumbs up
+lisa houston No, he's going to become like a botanist or something.
@rfviolin
You're welcome. I did use the first six Suzuki books, and my teachers used many of Suzuki's principles.
this performance renewed my faith in God.
Bows at the end, LIKE A BOSS
I've listened to this about 100 times honestly
holy shit he's great
holy shit the solo though, dude yessss
This kid has a future .
THAT SOLO THOOO
if you close your eyes it sound great
@violinslut
Standard! Nothing here that JS Bach didn't do in 1720 with the Sonatas and Partitas. (Well, in the first half of the clip, anyway.)
teared
intense work, pleasure to listen to
And then there's the highway to hell.
Que Mounstruo...Excelente..sobretodo el final..me recordaste a Devid Garrett.
well done! you maintained the integrity of the song ~ really appreciate this work :)
awesome shit bro! wish I could jam like that!
dammmmmnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
Hope he becomes famous. Game me the chills
Nice job! I am a fan of LZ. Kid, you did a great job! Very enjoy your solo ;)
same i grew up listening to a lot of classic rock, thats something id give a try i play the violin but not nearly as good maybe if i practice a lot
fuck yea this is my shit
OMG!!! ... this is fantastic!
makes me happy that the kids in the audience liked it
dude, this is freaking amazing! 3:53 to 3:56 I was just in awe!. I can't even play that fast on guitar! Well done!
Wow! Simply awesome. I am truly in awe of this young man.
this changed my life!
oh my god. this is incredible, I don't know why you were so humble about it earlier!
Dude!!! Fantastic work. Feel good when the crowd started screaming? ;-)
You are the man! Great arrangement, extremely well performed!!! Congrats.
totally talented.
That is the most amazing thing I have ever seen. Thank you so much for putting this up on youtube, you have an amazing amount of talent and in 10 years I better be anticipating you touring to my town. Keep it up!
@adamdegraff
Thanks... I could get used to it! Hey, are you guys bringing the 'First Contact' show to Nor Cal next year?
Not enough adjectives to express how impressive your talent is... making it a ringtone so I can hear it more often.
As a fellow fiddle player, this was badass and I don't say that lightly
I dont understand why there are dislikes for this video!!! This kid is amazing and OBVIOUSLY extremely talented. Well done. Well done!!!
Peter, you're so awesome! I'm glad to have met you and to have been able to play in symphony with you.
Man, you make me cry. Beautiful :)
Young... and already one of the most outstanding violinists I've heard. Passion, melding, truly a musician to follow in the future.
Holy crap...
at first I was worried. oh no, what is he starting at??? this will be a disaster..play it alone? on a violin? with large chances of missing the right tone!!!!!. and it is a long song!...strings flying around. luckely I was mistaken....please come back on stage.....undergo the applause longer....bis..bis..bis!!!
great sound but not good form, bow from the elbow and hold the violin higher but otherwise good job
I get chills, this is so. flipping. BRILLIANT!! :D perfect, you are extremely talented!!
That is a lot of notes to remember. Very nicely done
If this guy pursues a career in music, he's definitely gonna be up there.
I want to sond like THAT!!!
Absolutely scintillating performance !!!
This is fucking epic
Man, Peter! You rocked it! Thanks for sharing the source: Adam DeGraff.....he has cool stuff on his site, but not the music for Stairway to Heaven. Dang. I'll keep looking. But GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I also play violin and trying to play this song but cant how long did it take you?
sounds hotel california by the eagles, like two guitars playing at the same time
B.S.! I say he's a cyborg! lol. Great job, truly, lost count of the number of times I've listened to it, never gets old.
The solo....😍
Fantastic.
@FERViolin2010 Didn't use any, but go to adamdegraff's channel here on TH-cam, and you will meet one of the most positive forces on the violin scene in the year 2011!
A second violinist would have made this better.
That is amazing... You are very talented! I saved this so that I can put it on my iPod :-)
Perfect:)This kid couldnt get any better...hope you won:):)...XD
@EddiKilowatt nice! so like me, but i can't play it like this :D
This is spectacular. Great job!
what do u think?
well i think he would win because,HE IS A PRO!
Pirate canyons, lets see u do it
@ElectricViolinShop
Adam DeGraff's arrangement, from the Dueling Fiddlers' album Rock Violin... I just added a few thoughts of my own. Everyone should check these guys out!
Dude, you rock! Wonder if you've ever thought about going to rock orchestra camp? We'd love to have you there next summer - with over a hundred other kids who love to rock like you do! =)
Haven't heard it fiddled before. Posted way back in 2011. Nice job Pete.
And that my friends, was How The Talent Show Was Won. See What I Did There?
Its kinda weird ... but I have to consider that its solo.
I wish I could play the violin, I just play the clarinet
Did you have any sheet music? if so where can I find it?
