It’s funny how he mentions losing at auditions for professional orchestras. Rice University has a low output of musicians who win jobs. Let alone maintain those jobs with orchestras around the nation. I’m sure there are plenty of them who win jobs with 52wk orchestras, but that’s a slim chance than none. But most of them just return to their hometowns in hopes of becoming the next big thing, but yet, no one wants them when they comeback unless you can absolutely knock it out the ballpark. Unfortunately, he had to turn to this to where it’s still a failure.

Wow that must have been difficult! Once u figure out the intervals of the strings of your own instrument, it can be hard to play those same pieces on an instrument with different string intervals. I play cello too and you just play it down a string and change one of the fingerings but it’s almost the same. Viola is even easier because you only go down a string and don’t have to change fingerings except shifting up on the A string. But I still haven’t gotten the hang of guitar. Nice work👍🏻🤗

Your rendition of hallelujah brought tears of joy to my eyes.. so beautiful. 🥹

I so enjoy listening to Rob. He will still be playing way into his 90s. Fantastic violinist. Wish I could have kept mine up. I fully expected to hear Rob also start singling.

Good to see Rob giving a talk. Loved his rendition of hallelujah, best version I've heard.

He can play an AC/DC song on a violin. What talent he has.

In the last song everyone was just waiting to applaud. They even applauded everytime there was a pause. Awesome👍

I love his mastery of quarter tones

This was so epic!! And I totally love Rob's Mom now!😁

I haven't even watched it and I know that twoset needs to get over here and react to this.

It was so amazing to see him go back to his roots and play the song that helped him blow up so much. He is honestly amazing and I'm glad his talent and hard work has finally been acknowledged.

Proud!

That Hallelujah was amazing ❤️❤️

I never cared for the Violin, mostly cause I just never heard it anywhere and didn’t think much of it. But after witnessing what this guy can do I’m amazed by this instrument 🎻

As long as he did what his mother asked ("Hallelujah"), he got to play his game (AC DC)... It's sweet to see that some things never change.

I guess I have been watching a load of Rob's videos. This pop up on my recommendation and am glad it did. He killed it. 🔥

It makes me so proud to see that gamers embraced someone doing something unorthodox. You do something new, even if it’s not too notch, we got you. Welcome to the band of misfit toys.

Ооочень люблю скрипку! Просто обожаю!!! Только она может передать всю палитру и глубину чувств, что есть у человека в душе... Большое спасибо!

Hearing his twinkle twinkle loop reminds me of being a teenager in strings class learning the violin. Haven't played in over 15 years, but recently I have been wanting to pick it back up again.

4:26 Hallelujah 9:57 AC/DC
