    Sheer brilliance! Listening to Joshua Bell's music gives me the urge to pick up my violin again and play. Such beautiful notes, I love listening to his violin sing :)

    Wow...that's all I can say! Joshua Bell is such a talented young violinist...I can see him going places (even though he already has!) The only thing is though this recording sounds a tad slow..hmm
  • Good, but not great.

    I've been cursed with hearing perfect pitch. So, while 95% was very well done, 4% was borderline, and 1% was off. Which part do you notice when a professional does it: that 1% that disapointed me I felt that the accompaniment did better than Bell and he hid behind it. I saw the look on his face when he walked away at the end. He wasn't happy with his preformance Joshua should pay the extra bucks to get a better violin that sounds more "Strat"-like. Over all, I wasn't dissapointed in my purchace. It's a "keeper" I just wish it was a memorable "keeper"

    For this performance: Joshua Bell earns Fours Stars for his passion and virtuosity. The rest of the orchestra lost the Fifth Star not for lack of talent but for lack of expression.

    Why did he make a video of himself recording? did he want to make more money?

    This video shows the essence of a musical genius and is a wonderful behind the scenes look into the recording of one of my favorite movements from his Vivaldi album. Seeing Joshua Bell in concert is awe inspiring as he uses his violin to to speak to his audience. He does not release many music videos so this is a real treat for those who haven't had the honor of seeing him perform live.
  • WOW!

    I understand from where your feelings are coming regarding the quote of the said "Miley Cyrus Lover," but there is a time and place for everything; and it was certainly neither the time, nor the place, to rip apart some person with whom you have absolutly no relations just because he or she claims that he or she plays more skillfully than Joshua Bell. This person in question might actually BE better than Mr. Bell. And regarding your attack upon the musical preferances of the blogger in question, I will counter with this quote: "Music is like scent; if one is in the mood for florals, one goes to Chanel. If one is in the mood for florals musically, one gravitates to Vivaldi." If this blogger enjoys pop and country, it does not mean that pop and country are his or her favorites exclusivly. Vivaldi, when it is played well, is the greatest joy to me; but, then again, so is "My Humps," by the Black Eyed Peas, and anyone too ignorant and full of snobbery to appreciate other genres of music and other artists, whether or not the artist sings well, is the absolute epidome of unsophistication and tactlessness (and is, quite frankly, and pardon my French, a piece if white trash).
  • Amazing, Glad I bought this!

    I am a student of the violin and recently had the opportunity to see Joshua Bell play live in concert. It was an amazing opportunity and experience and am so glad to have this video to watch on my ipod, I agree with the frustration expressed by Commodore. Please note when you make comments like " I have always wanted to play the violin but am afraid it will give me a double chin" you show a level of ignorance that cannot even be comprehended much less put into words and you should never be allowed to even look at or touch a violin, they are amazing instruments. The talent that Joshua Bell posseses is truly amazing!
