Thank you all!!! i have many new things to record-sorry for such big hole in time-i had many concerts to play and create new things.But next year i will start with Beethoven 5th for solo violin,and after i will record my Requiem for solo violin made for Japan Tour and many many another personal pieces and fantasies. Thank you for your Interess!
0:33-0:37 people don't understand how much skill it takes to make that subtle piano to forte gradual climb without making it obvious. I replayed this part more than 100 times because he does it so effortlessly and smoothly. Amazing. Genius indeed
The fact that this man is not the most popular violinist at this point in time draws from the fact that his talent is way too huge to even be comprehensible by common folk
He's certainly perfected some very unique techniques. Playing the bass notes using left hand pizzicato was insane. I don't know if we can compare him to the great violin soloists of today like Hilary Hahn and Maxim Vengerov. He is more of a virtuoso and a composer.
Like Paganini, Roman is clearly ahead of his time. His genius affords him this luxury of course, but what is equally compelling is the degree to which he is able to execute his mind-bending renditions with such abandon. It seems almost natural for him to play the violin in this ground-breaking and nearly unfathomable manner. Even this generation will need some time to reconcile with this and many other achievements of his, but he won’t be chastised for his diabolical innovations and virtuousity as was Paganini.
I'm so glad TwoSetViolin finally made a video reacting you playing. You're such a talented person, I wonder why I have never seen any article mentioning you.
@Ali Abbas Roman's 'forced' harmonics, lesson: m.th-cam.com/video/gQhQ06kXt0g/w-d-xo.html which allow you to do things like m.th-cam.com/video/t5kzdf8kUeM/w-d-xo.html in 'I BRINDISI'
@Ali Abbaswell for one ,TEETH PIZZ . He literally has a pizz section played with his teeth lol The long passages with double stop harmonics while one is the melody, one is a trill, and the left hand pizz is the accompaniment, played all together lol
This is pure gold. Alot of people fail to see how hard this piece really is. It is a masterpiece that even Mozart would be proud of. The dynamics are beautiful and you've combined each part of the piece perfectly.
@@bait5257 yea he recorded GSTK when he was a teenager almost a decade ago th-cam.com/video/PCsiJ_fasDk/w-d-xo.html by now he has at least several works that are harder than GSTK: BRINDISI, and this Mozart arrangement for sure, plus other stuff he is working on for solo violin that's taking a long time
I have played the violin since childhood, many orchestra concerts. I just look and listen to his videos in stunned disbelief. The subtle bowing making everything so smooth, I just can't....
Btw he says this is his most difficult piece, by far. I dont doubt it, just listen to the dynamics, the left hand pizz, the double and triple stops, everything sounds so clean and powerful
Here from Two-Set, I had to listen after their reactions. I am truly impressed with this. I'm glad that left hand got some close-ups. It is indeed, actually being performed by a quartet -- Roman's brain and heart, Roman's right hand and bow, a violin, and Roman's left hand. Great group. Going to share.
i ask myself each time i see his videos: why he is not universally acclaimed and more known and being used as reference for technique on every violin site or place out there?
violin is a group instrument, it's not like a guitar that you can basically be a band of one person. Most violin pieces are composed for a bunch of people, either he composes his own string quartets for solo violin or he'll always be that lone guy who plays alone. This reduces his reach by a lot not only in the general public cause less people share what he's doing cause less people are involved in it, but also with musicians, most musicians will be impressed but like how am I going to fit this into my orchestra? am I going to cut four people to fit this guy? Does he even want to be in an orchestra? I think he's trying really hard to be XXI century paganini and he has the skills but he has to compose cool stuff. What made all the great from the past is that they composed, it didn't matter how good they were with any instrument.
because being a great violinist is so much more than just technique. I'm sure todays top violinists all have the technical capacities to do what he does.Roman is no doubt very good, but he's not exceptional.
Bram van eenoo ... no most do not. Roman is a phenomenon. Success can be attributed to pedigree, money and luck. He might not have all of those, so all the skills may be useless.
Amazing, truly amazing. You are a true genius and deserve much more attention. All the voices are clear and you play with beautiful dynamics. I would like to buy the sheets by the way! Where can i buy them? Ps: that thumb pizz is awesome :D
Sebastian, Can you please explain, how is this possible to play both chords and melody together on the violin? I'm confused! I thought it's only possible on piano, organ, maybe guitar etc. But how is this possible?! He also played the right notes! Not alternative ones!!!
The outfit, the specs, the hair, the effortlessly flawless genius rendition, this guy is a total spaz! I love it! At last, I have found my spirit familiar!
at first i saw the thumbnail and i was like “dawg, there is no reason to be dressed like that i know this is gonna be annoying to watch” then i watched it. excuse me save some talent for the rest of us pls. even if it’s just the crumbs bc you absolutely DEVOURED this.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how much god damn work this must have taken. not to mention the musical phrasing within each line absolute insanity
This is insane dude, it give me Erlkönig vibes with the multiple voices going on, and while I don’t know anything about violin since I don’t play it, it looks very difficult yet you played it beautifully.
Your the first violinist I've ever seen playing multiple parts at one time without a looping pedal. I love your arrangements. Recently, I started working on playing the bass part and melody line at the same time also. Thanks for the inspiration.
From the comments you can see why he is not a resounding success, there is a lot of envy. And the more one knows about music, the more this feeling grows against the most talented violinist of this century. I, and every human being alive, have not seen Paganini play, but this lad beats them all by a wide difference in talent and makes me proud to have seen Kim perform such a marvel.
Roman Kim is a genious of XXI century, in violin. Extremly superb, in large sclale best than others. Like Rostropovich in cello or Rampal in flute (XX century). These people changed the world forever.
Wow, Roman this piece is truly amazing, yesterday I was seeing a master class of The professor maxim Vengerov and he said to a girl that was playing a bach piece that she have to simulated the sound of two violin, now you're simulated the sound of a camera orchestra, and that's amazing, congratulations. PD: sorry for my english is very bad.

How can there be any dislikes? The technical mastery and creative arrangement necessary to play this quartet on solo violin is absolutely stunning. Bravo, Roman!
The super subtle and very intense energy dynamics, the phrasing, the joy and relaxation with which he plays, the musicality and the technical difficulty.. wow.. all together its so impressive and such a great achievement. You really put your full heart and being into this. Thank you Roman
I love the little cut for no reason to the statue throwing arms up @3:16. As if the statue was thinking: "Ok, I've stopped trying to figure this shit out."
Could this be the best Violinist ever! of our time ! most will not know what there hearing or watching, and comprehending all this talent it really is unbelievable . Bravissimo!
Дорогой Роман Ким, Ваши ноты - это волшебство, которое переплетается с вечностью. Ваше мастерство - это не просто игра на скрипке, это разговор с самой душой музыки. Вы не просто исполнитель, вы - посредник между миром и тем, что за его пределами. Скрипка в ваших руках - это волшебная палочка, которой вы рисуете звезды на небе. Ваши ноты - это созвездия, которые сверкают в темных просторах. Вы не просто играете, вы создаете. Ваши струны - это мосты между мирами, и мы - слушатели - переправляемся через них. Спасибо вам за ваше искусство, за то, что вы делаете мир богаче, а наши души - светлее. Ваши ноты - это лекарство от суеты и шума. Они лечат, вдохновляют и поднимают нас к звездам. С уважением и восхищением, Ваш поклонник Roman Kim’s rendition of “Eine kleine Nachtmusik As I immerse myself in the ethereal strains of Roman Kim’s violin, I find myself transported to a realm where time stands still, and music becomes the very fabric of existence. His performance of W.A. Mozart’s “Eine kleine Nachtmusik” is nothing short of a celestial conversation-a dialogue between the mortal and the divine. 1. The Prelude: A Whispersome Invitation The opening notes tiptoe into my consciousness, delicate as dew-kissed petals. Roman Kim’s bow caresses the strings, coaxing forth a melody that flutters like a nocturnal butterfly. The violin sings, and I listen-a willing captive to its allure. The night beckons, and I follow, my heart aflutter with anticipation. 2. Moonlit Reverie: Allegro As the tempo quickens, so does my pulse. Roman Kim’s fingers dance across the fingerboard, each note a starburst of brilliance. The violin becomes a storyteller, weaving tales of moonlit escapades, secret rendezvous, and stolen kisses. I close my eyes, and suddenly, I am twirling in a moonlit garden, my laughter echoing through the night. 3. Serenade for the Soul: Roman Kim’s Mastery Roman Kim’s technique is a marvel-a tightrope walk between precision and passion. His fingers glide effortlessly, leaving trails of stardust in their wake. The violin becomes an extension of his being-an oracle that whispers secrets of love, longing, and melancholy. How does he conjure such magic? It’s as if Mozart himself guides his hand. 4. Adagio: A Heart Unveiled In the Adagio, Roman Kim bares his soul. The violin weeps, its lament echoing across centuries. I feel the ache-the longing for something intangible, a love lost or never found. The notes hang in the air, fragile as spider silk, yet they carry the weight of eternity. Roman Kim’s vibrato trembles like a fragile heart, and I am undone. 5. Rondo: A Joyful Dance of Stars And then, the Rondo bursts forth-a jubilant celebration. Roman Kim’s bow becomes a comet’s tail, streaking across the firmament. The violin laughs, pirouettes, and invites us to join the cosmic revelry. We dance-audience and artist-our souls alight with the sheer exuberance of existence. The stars applaud, and I wonder if they envy our mortal rapture. 6. The Final Cadence: A Breath Held As the final notes linger, I hold my breath. Roman Kim’s violin hovers on the precipice of silence, suspended between worlds. The audience, too, is suspended-a collective heartbeat waiting for release. And then, like a shooting star, the last note fades. Applause erupts-a thunderstorm of gratitude and awe. Roman Kim bows, and I bow with him, grateful to have witnessed this celestial communion. In Conclusion Roman Kim’s rendition of “Eine kleine Nachtmusik” transcends mere performance. It is a communion of souls-an invitation to dance with the universe, to taste eternity in a fleeting moment. Bravo, maestro! Your violin speaks, and we listen-a chorus of hearts forever changed. Samuel ROMAN KIM Roman Kim, the virtuoso violinist and composer, hails from the Kazakh Soviet Socialist Republic-a land where the echoes of Tatar, Belarusian, and Korean heritage intertwine like harmonious threads. Born on October 11, 1991, just months before the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Kim’s musical journey began early, guided by the hands of fate and a family steeped in diverse cultural roots. The Tapestry of His Origins Picture a young Roman Kim cradling his first violin at the tender age of five. The instrument became an extension of his soul, a vessel through which he would channel centuries of musical legacy. By the age of seven, he had already claimed victory in national competitions-a prodigious talent emerging from the vast Eurasian expanse. Moscow’s Melodic Embrace 🇷🇺 Kim’s path led him to the Central Music School in Moscow, where he studied under the watchful gaze of Galina Turchaninova. Her tutelage bestowed upon him a technical foundation-a canvas upon which he would later paint symphonies. And then, the Mstislav Rostropovich Foundation recognized his promise, granting him a scholarship. The young violinist’s star ascended, fueled by passion and relentless practice. The Cologne Interlude At a mere sixteen, Roman Kim stood at the gates of the Cologne University of Music. Here, under the guidance of Viktor Tretyakov, he honed his craft. Tretyakov-the maestro who shaped not only Kim’s technique but also his very musical essence. “Turchaninova gave me a wonderful technical basis,” Kim reminisces, “and Tretyakov affected me very strongly musically”. The Violin as His Voice Kim’s repertoire spans the Romantic period, where he waltzes with violin concertos and virtuoso compositions. But it’s his deep dive into the legendary Paganini’s bow and finger techniques that sets him apart. Like Paganini, Kim weaves new arrangements, breathing fresh life into timeless melodies. And then there’s an unexpected muse: Jimi Hendrix-whose electric spirit fuels Kim’s creative fire. Stardust and Strings: “Air on a G String” In 2011, Kim’s rendition of Bach’s “Air on a G String” reverberated across the digital cosmos. Over 1.3 million viewers on TH-cam bore witness to his magic. The violin became a celestial wand, conjuring emotions beyond language. Ivry Gitlis, the Israeli virtuoso, declared Kim’s mastery as "one of the most incredible playing I have heard since I was born!". The Inventor’s Prism But Kim isn’t confined to the stage alone. He dons prismatic glasses-an invention of his own making. These spectacles, like kaleidoscopic portals, enhance his focus and concentration. Through their tinted lenses, he glimpses alternate dimensions, where music and imagination intertwine. Transcriptions and Triumphs As a composer, Kim weaves transcriptions and original works. His violin concerto premiered in Cluj-Napoca, Romania in 2017. Among his transcriptions, “Eine Kleine Nachtmusik” dances-a Mozartian reverie reborn. And let’s not forget the First Movement of Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5, now rendered anew by Kim’s nimble fingers. The Kimpossible Journey In 2018, Kim’s album, aptly titled “Kimpossible,” graced the world. Sony Records cradled his notes-their resonance echoing through time and space. A Citizen of Music So, what nationality does Roman Kim claim? His passport bears the stamp of Kazakhstan, but his true citizenship transcends borders. He belongs to the realm of music-a global citizen serenading the universe.
How can someone dislike this - it's not only unbelievably virtuous but also melodical and emotional - especially for a violin player it is almost impossible to imagine how to perform this in such a way
Wow! Amazing! This is a whole new level of violinplaying. And it doesn't even seem difficult for you...I wish my teacher Ruggiero Ricci was still alive to see your videos. Absolutely fantastic!
Ich verleihe dir, Roman Kim, die höchste Auszeichnung des Universums, den Intergalactic Award, dafür, dass du ein wahrer Geigenvirtuose der Spitzenklasse bist. Zertifiziert intergalaktisch! 🌹
It does amazes me that this is played in a single instrument, but the arrangment.. amazes more. It's the best arrangment everyone could've dreamed of. Follow me. Maybe Paganini could've played this, or Ernst, but he did it. He arranged and played. Better than everyone. A true legend.
Unbelievable!!! I am amazed every time I watched this. Awesome!!! And this guy has the longest pinky I have ever seen!..And is he plucking strings and bowing strings at the same time? I thought I caught that at least once.
Thank you all!!! i have many new things to record-sorry for such big hole in time-i had many concerts to play and create new things.But next year i will start with Beethoven 5th for solo violin,and after i will record my Requiem for solo violin made for Japan Tour and many many another personal pieces and fantasies. Thank you for your Interess!
Please continue with this stuff! We would love to hear more!
@@bard2227 Indeed! Can't wait for his Beethoven 5th Symphony for solo violin!

Not this perfect
Alejandro Narvaez Very true, it's hard to perfect the perfect.
How can there be any dislikes? The technical mastery and creative arrangement necessary to play this quartet on solo violin is absolutely stunning. Bravo, Roman!
Those dislikes are non musicians who dont care about shiy like this
Perfect, the performance gave me a fresh shock. Roman Kim must be genius.
This is an astonishing feat of finger positions, phrasing, bowing, dynamics, accents and time warping! Congratulations Ling Ling!
can anyone tell me how to re-like this a hundred times - I just love this so much. Thank you for this, Roman Kim!
The super subtle and very intense energy dynamics, the phrasing, the joy and relaxation with which he plays, the musicality and the technical difficulty.. wow.. all together its so impressive and such a great achievement. You really put your full heart and being into this. Thank you Roman
I love the little cut for no reason to the statue throwing arms up @3:16. As if the statue was thinking: "Ok, I've stopped trying to figure this shit out."
What kind of Ling Ling Freakish Devil Dance is this.....???? Sounds like the soul of 10 Violinists trapped in this instrument!
Could this be the best Violinist ever! of our time ! most will not know what there hearing or watching, and comprehending all this talent it really is unbelievable . Bravissimo!

Best solo version I've heard of Eine kleine Nachtmusik! Bravo!
That has to be the best I’ve ever heard Mozart played on just one violin. Amazing!
Дорогой Роман Ким,
Ваши ноты - это волшебство, которое переплетается с вечностью. Ваше мастерство - это не просто игра на скрипке, это разговор с самой душой музыки. Вы не просто исполнитель, вы - посредник между миром и тем, что за его пределами.
Скрипка в ваших руках - это волшебная палочка, которой вы рисуете звезды на небе. Ваши ноты - это созвездия, которые сверкают в темных просторах. Вы не просто играете, вы создаете. Ваши струны - это мосты между мирами, и мы - слушатели - переправляемся через них.
Спасибо вам за ваше искусство, за то, что вы делаете мир богаче, а наши души - светлее. Ваши ноты - это лекарство от суеты и шума. Они лечат, вдохновляют и поднимают нас к звездам.
С уважением и восхищением, Ваш поклонник
Roman Kim’s rendition of “Eine kleine Nachtmusik
As I immerse myself in the ethereal strains of Roman Kim’s violin, I find myself transported to a realm where time stands still, and music becomes the very fabric of existence. His performance of W.A. Mozart’s “Eine kleine Nachtmusik” is nothing short of a celestial conversation-a dialogue between the mortal and the divine.
1. The Prelude: A Whispersome Invitation The opening notes tiptoe into my consciousness, delicate as dew-kissed petals. Roman Kim’s bow caresses the strings, coaxing forth a melody that flutters like a nocturnal butterfly. The violin sings, and I listen-a willing captive to its allure. The night beckons, and I follow, my heart aflutter with anticipation.
2. Moonlit Reverie: Allegro As the tempo quickens, so does my pulse. Roman Kim’s fingers dance across the fingerboard, each note a starburst of brilliance. The violin becomes a storyteller, weaving tales of moonlit escapades, secret rendezvous, and stolen kisses. I close my eyes, and suddenly, I am twirling in a moonlit garden, my laughter echoing through the night.
3. Serenade for the Soul: Roman Kim’s Mastery Roman Kim’s technique is a marvel-a tightrope walk between precision and passion. His fingers glide effortlessly, leaving trails of stardust in their wake. The violin becomes an extension of his being-an oracle that whispers secrets of love, longing, and melancholy. How does he conjure such magic? It’s as if Mozart himself guides his hand.
4. Adagio: A Heart Unveiled In the Adagio, Roman Kim bares his soul. The violin weeps, its lament echoing across centuries. I feel the ache-the longing for something intangible, a love lost or never found. The notes hang in the air, fragile as spider silk, yet they carry the weight of eternity. Roman Kim’s vibrato trembles like a fragile heart, and I am undone.
5. Rondo: A Joyful Dance of Stars And then, the Rondo bursts forth-a jubilant celebration. Roman Kim’s bow becomes a comet’s tail, streaking across the firmament. The violin laughs, pirouettes, and invites us to join the cosmic revelry. We dance-audience and artist-our souls alight with the sheer exuberance of existence. The stars applaud, and I wonder if they envy our mortal rapture.
6. The Final Cadence: A Breath Held As the final notes linger, I hold my breath. Roman Kim’s violin hovers on the precipice of silence, suspended between worlds. The audience, too, is suspended-a collective heartbeat waiting for release. And then, like a shooting star, the last note fades. Applause erupts-a thunderstorm of gratitude and awe. Roman Kim bows, and I bow with him, grateful to have witnessed this celestial communion.
In Conclusion Roman Kim’s rendition of “Eine kleine Nachtmusik” transcends mere performance. It is a communion of souls-an invitation to dance with the universe, to taste eternity in a fleeting moment. Bravo, maestro! Your violin speaks, and we listen-a chorus of hearts forever changed.
Samuel
ROMAN KIM
Roman Kim, the virtuoso violinist and composer, hails from the Kazakh Soviet Socialist Republic-a land where the echoes of Tatar, Belarusian, and Korean heritage intertwine like harmonious threads. Born on October 11, 1991, just months before the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Kim’s musical journey began early, guided by the hands of fate and a family steeped in diverse cultural roots.
The Tapestry of His Origins Picture a young Roman Kim cradling his first violin at the tender age of five. The instrument became an extension of his soul, a vessel through which he would channel centuries of musical legacy. By the age of seven, he had already claimed victory in national competitions-a prodigious talent emerging from the vast Eurasian expanse.
Moscow’s Melodic Embrace 🇷🇺 Kim’s path led him to the Central Music School in Moscow, where he studied under the watchful gaze of Galina Turchaninova. Her tutelage bestowed upon him a technical foundation-a canvas upon which he would later paint symphonies. And then, the Mstislav Rostropovich Foundation recognized his promise, granting him a scholarship. The young violinist’s star ascended, fueled by passion and relentless practice.
The Cologne Interlude At a mere sixteen, Roman Kim stood at the gates of the Cologne University of Music. Here, under the guidance of Viktor Tretyakov, he honed his craft. Tretyakov-the maestro who shaped not only Kim’s technique but also his very musical essence. “Turchaninova gave me a wonderful technical basis,” Kim reminisces, “and Tretyakov affected me very strongly musically”.
The Violin as His Voice Kim’s repertoire spans the Romantic period, where he waltzes with violin concertos and virtuoso compositions. But it’s his deep dive into the legendary Paganini’s bow and finger techniques that sets him apart. Like Paganini, Kim weaves new arrangements, breathing fresh life into timeless melodies. And then there’s an unexpected muse: Jimi Hendrix-whose electric spirit fuels Kim’s creative fire.
Stardust and Strings: “Air on a G String” In 2011, Kim’s rendition of Bach’s “Air on a G String” reverberated across the digital cosmos. Over 1.3 million viewers on TH-cam bore witness to his magic. The violin became a celestial wand, conjuring emotions beyond language. Ivry Gitlis, the Israeli virtuoso, declared Kim’s mastery as "one of the most incredible playing I have heard since I was born!".
The Inventor’s Prism But Kim isn’t confined to the stage alone. He dons prismatic glasses-an invention of his own making. These spectacles, like kaleidoscopic portals, enhance his focus and concentration. Through their tinted lenses, he glimpses alternate dimensions, where music and imagination intertwine.
Transcriptions and Triumphs As a composer, Kim weaves transcriptions and original works. His violin concerto premiered in Cluj-Napoca, Romania in 2017. Among his transcriptions, “Eine Kleine Nachtmusik” dances-a Mozartian reverie reborn. And let’s not forget the First Movement of Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5, now rendered anew by Kim’s nimble fingers.
The Kimpossible Journey In 2018, Kim’s album, aptly titled “Kimpossible,” graced the world. Sony Records cradled his notes-their resonance echoing through time and space.
A Citizen of Music So, what nationality does Roman Kim claim? His passport bears the stamp of Kazakhstan, but his true citizenship transcends borders. He belongs to the realm of music-a global citizen serenading the universe.
What an articulation ? Awesome 👌
This is beyond human!
👇Twoset sent us here
This is why I love two set! It is very helpful when you want to learn about new talents! Congratulations Roman Kim! 😀
Such an incredible inventor, technician, and performer.
merci Roman Kim un solo MAGNIFIQUE
Came from twoset violin and bruh! What are your fingers!!! Tentacles!!! Your amazing!
The imperfect of the playing makes it so real
Absolutely amazing! Well done! BRAVO!!
"So the string quartet didn't show up, what now?"
Roman: Hold my beer
You deserve a lot more subscribers then what you currently have. You are an exceptional violinist.
Man's gonna play the entire pag concerto while playing the orchestra part at the same time. He gon put the rest of us out of business.
Very beautifully played!
Violin is my favorite instrument..
How can someone dislike this - it's not only unbelievably virtuous but also melodical and emotional - especially for a violin player it is almost impossible to imagine how to perform this in such a way
he is literally what i imagine paganini to have been like. eccentric with enough technical skill to back it up. i'm blown away
Makes me wonder if Paganini could have even played this piece
Wow! Amazing! This is a whole new level of violinplaying. And it doesn't even seem difficult for you...I wish my teacher Ruggiero Ricci was still alive to see your videos. Absolutely fantastic!
If Paganini sold his soul, Roman Kim was the one to buy it
Absolutely the best performance of this piece I've ever heard!
Who’s here from TwoSet?? 🙋🏻♀️🎻 This guy is literally the orchestra
🙋♀️
🙋
🙋🏼♂️
Twoset gang
🙋
This is a GIFT!
unbelievable. Close your eyes as you are listening, and you will think there are a bunch of violins playing this in harmony.
Wow! This sounds like a whole orchestra! When you take a closer look, it's Roman.
Come here after watching twoset and give this man the attention he deserve :)
A man who truly knows how to use the room to his advantage, great job using reverb!!
Imagine Mozart hearing this! He’s probably compose music just for Roman Kim to challenge him. What a pair they would have made!
Ich verleihe dir, Roman Kim, die höchste Auszeichnung des Universums, den Intergalactic Award, dafür, dass du ein wahrer Geigenvirtuose der Spitzenklasse bist. Zertifiziert intergalaktisch! 🌹
It does amazes me that this is played in a single instrument, but the arrangment.. amazes more. It's the best arrangment everyone could've dreamed of.
Follow me. Maybe Paganini could've played this, or Ernst, but he did it. He arranged and played. Better than everyone.
A true legend.
Subscribed! Thanks Two Sets Violin.

Unbelievable!!! I am amazed every time I watched this. Awesome!!! And this guy has the longest pinky I have ever seen!..And is he plucking strings and bowing strings at the same time? I thought I caught that at least once.
