If I were any more cynical, I’d believe this video to be a stunt for either Nokia; Slovakia’s tourism board; the Orthodox Synagogue, or just violins in general. But apparently it’s not? In which case, Lukas Kmit has the coolest of possible tempers. [BBC]
For the impatient the money shot is around 40 seconds in.
BTW, where is the edit button someone told me we were possibly promised?
I demand an edit button. /grin
Good things come to those who wait…our dev is working his way through the list!
A punchline doesn’t work without setup, I thing the person placing the clip on youtube understood this. How short an attention span?
Great find, Kat – this guy is going to make a killing on the ringtone market, I may just sample it for my droid.
Mark, please accept my humblest apologies for such a crass comment.
If I were able to delete it, I would. /bow /scrape
Kat, scrap that edit button request; I’d rather have one that just allows me to block the comments section please?
Don’t even joke about not having my edit button. I am looking forward to this and the reply notification like kids wait for they birthday.
Their birthaday. see what I mean
The man is a god.
It’s a Viola, not a Violin, he is a Violaist. #corrections
ever way he is blowing his own trumpet – trombone
I think it’s about time he upgraded. What’s that, a 3310?
Good point, Nokia Tune first used in the 2110 is most iconic ringtone around the world, as the worlds first identifiable ringtone. Nobody really uses it today in the western world, I can’t remember the last time I heard that tune. So the chances of an outdated iconic tune interrupting the last note of a classical performance are very slim in a middle-class western audience, makes me think it is a setup, or even all of it is a fake viral promotion piece.
Although I see your reasoning, there’s a couple of dud notes (to my ear, I’m no musician) during the improv after the tone sounds which makes it look authentic to me. There’s no way that, if it’s a setup, the violinist would make mistakes as they’d just retake.
At the same time, it is rather fishy. :>
Hands up who watched the ‘Bombshell Butt Workout’ video that came up after the violinist.
Just you I think, mate.
I didn’t, but now that you mention it I looked and unsuprisingly, it’s Zuzana from bodyrock.tv. If you haven’t had the pleasure of watching her videos yet, then I am sure you will find yourself wasting the rest of your night watching them. I certainly can think of worse ways of spending a tuesday night…
