how long uh-oh I need a haircut tell us
isolation thing for you guys here's
getting longer that's okay
more time to crack this today we're
going to be rusting I mean what
reviewing with facts and logic Ben
Shapiro playing the violin most people
might know this guy as a political
commentator obviously we had no idea
we're not a political channel yeah we
don't know anything but also what the
internet violin detectives yes
review some violin playing why we need
that leaning in shine leave me insurance
guys just in case is just so this is
just a YouTube video enjoy this episode
I says yeah I've always gotten a lot of
requests to play violin and the mood
struck so here's Ave Maria by JS Bach so
again this otherwise the camera yeah
yeah I was like the bonnet is solid yeah
it was just hard to critique his violin
playing when we can't see it
[Music]
he's so early
ISA early like that's how prepared is
before the bank oh yeah like ten seconds
is waiting I don't want to play all my
facts and logic
haha do you have like three four but how
many bar as a musician we don't we just
kind of stayed in listen to the music
and then like let's play with it huh
[Music]
yeah his Boas also hang up here yeah
that's very uncomfortable and it's very
tense imagine that your pianist and then
just sitting here like well you're very
tense and then see this motion we start
the string yeah but kind of this is
paintbrush feelings it's delayed effect
you haven't it's getting closer closer
[Music]
[Applause]
not bad yeah give it to me these are
nice sound
his vibrato while it's not hunting
consistent it's just a nice time yeah
[Music]
yeah he loses sound at some points but
the sound doesn't disappear yeah
can I just say the way it ends the
phrase is so prompt yeah it's just like
some argument fact he's already ready
for the next argument next argument just
being nitpicky you can see when he
shifts up there was tension and the
speed caused a job which causes bud to
kind of the sound was inconsistent ah
yeah yeah there's a shift and the blood
changes and smooth this shift needed to
be less tense and timing the
coordination of this it works and also
his are actually kind of saying this in
case when you're watching this it seemed
like a smart guy that likes playing
violin so this is just our thoughts I
would not neglect that I'll go saya I
think the tension started when he put
the first finger down yeah with no
vibrato yeah so after the attendant
happens before the event
yes seem like that when he first started
and already there's a lot of one that's
so true and musically that also if you
listen to it like this beautiful brother
[Music]
man beside it doesn't make sense so
consistency yeah
[Music]
Oh God and I don't know you
this is all subject to taste no comment
that the nation is yeah maybe I'm
hearing it wrong I want to say as a tip
and this actually to everyone watching
this one of the hardest things are
playing violin it's detention because
this is not the most natural position it
takes time to be able to play like this
without tension you can kind of see yeah
yeah and his boys definitely that wrist
looks tense yet the elbow looks tense
now you can hear the effect of that
there's just inconsistencies in times
especially when it shifts the shifting
and bird change combination yeah when
you play a violin it's easy when you
tense one hand the other handles it
hence with it but I think in this one
both needed to be relaxed he's got the
interesting with riders it's very risky
finger and finger risk yeah I mean it
works for them but you can always vary
it up I think it can do is more variety
they'll speed and with you can use alarm
did to get a bigger sound yeah it's fine
mechanical people they're like that's
all I meant the way he finishes do notes
it is very abrupt very dry and cut
usually my wanted yeah bit of pace yeah
thank ya you see Eddie there's a bit of
a breath I am my body would buy anyway
you can even hear the the way it ends on
the shape and I also say something every
time he eats shifts most of the time the
first thing it is never bribe rating he
goes right
it's got tension is first probably
tensioning a thumb and this area
probably also because there's no shorter
rest
it's different for everyone but of
course some people use no-show rest for
me when I don't use a short rest
I tend to have to hold my bond up with
my hand yeah if you don't have the
technique trained for it it's easy to
just tense up yes these are just
arbitrary like you shouldn't tense that
you can hear it effect in the Sam
rhythms don't care how you actually
generate impressed yeah he's quite and
she quite on time with a good sound but
I think he ELLs an example of one where
there's two phrases that mimic each
other in this shape you don't want to
play the exactly the same point oldest
music with composers when I repeat
things now phrases is to make usually to
tell story make a point to make a point
for musician when we see that an
opportunity to show what we want to show
yes free music salsa boukreev cool
pretty much like a brass Russian burger
yeah yes I'm very I would say my biggest
constructive feedback would be to find
ways to be less tense
I think that would amazing solve a lot
of problems yeah
[Music]
I spy baby say nice I like that he ran a
little boy yes Siva
[Music]
yeah oftentimes is down boy
there's always accent is just gonna say
that the speed is often too fast so
that's why on that's know see he ran out
of the probably because he's tense yet
properties of this ball
when he attends the lower half is like a
dangerous place which is why tennis
players or often avoid the lower half
and try to get to the middle of it yeah
bye-bye that was actually quite
beautiful well if I'm looking at it from
just non-musician um I'll be embarrassed
I am actually in person I know this by
saying all these things are wrong I'm
glad that he's honest about the
performance there wasn't any editing
involved or actually changing things to
pretend that he plays at a different
level
yeah and this is just a self-expression
of him playing for the violin as it
should be I think this I respect a lot
more than and I think music is more
about the rawness rather than painting
beside making a few I feel like we
should be that the music is just making
music you know
[Music]
so I wanna
[Music]
to keep keep this fresh going despite
the down boy da-da-da-da-da-da to
predictable and again what is offering
our pinion someone could easily look at
our videos and yet destroy the heck out
of there yeah it's on that night he
posted another one
all this has more views yes to go
meditation from pious by Massenet we
want this one
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
okay I was gonna say at the beginning oh
yeah she did a bit of all that was not
surprised the way yeah yeah he knows
that's the end of the phrase inside the
man then come rush yeah yeah they're not
easy I think it doesn't help that it's
arm still tense yeah
if you can't hear that is the string
crossing it's not a guest room closet
yeah and it's just seem seamless yeah
there's no just a jitter and accents or
sound
[Music]
it's kind of like he lost the power duh
yeah he doesn't know boy I mean it's
preferable you Riley go yeah nem what's
out there sustain to the climate I think
he's moving right yeah she has a habit
of stopping us every time every time
this is a common one is shift
and it's tense and the coordination is
quite there the cheap solution is to
live in the bone but ultimately you need
to you got to hide the shift while the
sound is there so ears them pick up on
that change yeah
he really wants to get his fat self that
accent it was it was just pressed yeah
it wasn't you can do it with changing
for brother faster Busby I think what he
intended walls he wanted something to
emphasize that neither but his left hand
didn't follow his right hand if your
left hand stays the same you change the
right hand most likely if the cell is
the one coordinate well anyway we're
getting way too technical you guys for
me to having care this one yeah if you
wash the spot how you doing dude
yesterday you didn't practice practice
[Music]
but not bad whoa let me press their last
homology when it came out it's high
pressure it's the last note I wonder if
heat this guy gets nervous
playing violin ooh that's like yeah I
bet if you're watching this do you get
nervous all right guys just sharing our
thoughts and events watching this we
hope you learn something and if you're
watching this musician hopefully you
also got something out of it
remember all takes practice thank you
guys so much for watching if you want
more of this please like and subscribe
we'll see you guys next time
