The emotion and composition in this piece is so perfect. Marvelous. Just marvelous.

jeeesus christ......fantastic.

@themightymearns It's because that bowhold is advantageous since it's very efficient in regards to weight. Edgar can conserve movement since he has to move his hand less than he would with his other bowhold. I believe one of the strengths of that bow hold is articulation (notice that he almost always uses it for fast passages).

Edgar doesn't come from a classical school. He always played bluesgrass songs, that's how he started, and that's why he sounds so different from any other bass player I know. amazing

@@johncleere4885 that’s what I thought, especially with influential recordings of Bach, Bottesini, Zigeunerweisen and more.

very nice ...but I'm still looking for the violin!!!!

@NinjaMatt27 it's made for the violin, but chris thile played it on the mandolin because the violin and mandolin are tuned the same way. so he just substituted the mandolin.

this is my favourite concerto! Its much better with Johua Bell but its amazing anyway!

Классно

you posted movements 1 and 4 but how about 2 and 3 ?

@renasoaca i think you should do more research on this guy before you state that he "always played bluegrass songs" :)

-.- misleading title where's the violin?

Edgar Meyer gain some weight, hasn't he?
