Жыл бұрын

WEEKLY LIVESTREAMS! 🎵 This time I'll have one of the best violists in the world - Amihai Grosz joining me! Principal violist of the Berlin Philharmonic, Amihai is a generally cool dude who also was one of the founding members of the Jerusalem String Quartet, spending 14 years touring together with the group.
Want to participate and get free musical tips from Amihai? Sign up for Tonic (tonicmusic.app/practice-now) and open a Studio to practice during the designated time. I’ll be popping live into Studios which have “#RAYVIEW” written in their description. All instruments welcome but violists get special love, so be sure to include "VIOLALOVE" in your description if you play the viola!
Other details to write in your Studio description: level (beginner, intermediate, advanced) and how long you’ve been working on the piece.
For example: #rayview - intermediate-advanced - 3 weeks - VIOLALOVE
Today's players:
Ylva: Sarabande con variazioni - Johan Halvorsen
Tejas Tirthapura: Viola Concerto: III Allegro moderato - William Walton
Katherine Barrett: Romance in F for Viola & Orchestra, Op 85 - Max Bruch
Kaija: Stamitz Viola Concerto in D
Ella: Der Schwanendreher - Paul Hindemith

The story how Amihai got the principal violist's chair is so funny and amazing! You know you've praciticed 40 hours when you've practiced during the flight!

Not "principle," but "principal." Know the difference between the two. Not sure if you are a native English speaker, but learn more about English.

Good to see that you've corrected it.

Ray going up and down the aisles on the plane, playing like the violinists at a restaurant. I hope he took requests and played love songs to the couples

Not “very so cute,” but “very cute” or “so cute.” Know the difference. Not sure if you are a native English speaker, but learn more about English.

@@amywest8352 Here we go. "So very," "very so," both of these are correct and commonly used. There is no difference. Also, you just copied my message. It's so typical - stupid people simply copy someone's comment. Use your brain and write something different before you get old. Or perhaps you're already old and hopeless. 😂

Shout out to both of you ! You are great classical music ambassadors. Special thanks to my new favorite violist Amihai that I just heard on KZfaq for the first time a couple weeks ago. You are so inspiring ! Now I listen everything that I can find played by Amihai. PS I listened to many things played by you Ray for the last decade almost 😂. 🥂

What an amazing violist! Thanks for having Amihai, Ray. Viola gang represent!

@JSB2500 Жыл бұрын

Amihai's fingers are just like mine - wide all the way to the tip! Wider than Ray's. Maybe I should play the viola instead of the violin!! 😮😃

Amazing! The humility of these two geniuses is what makes them great!!! Amihai shows he has such a warm and big heart! No wonder you are the first violist at Berlin Phil!
