So I kind of left this blog (well, that much should be obvious if you've been following for a while) without noticing. I had to finish my senior year, work a job, practice, etc.

But now it's mid-summer and I find myself with a LOT of free time to run this blog once more.

TAKE NOTE:

As always, this blog is not solely dedicated to violinists. There is a focus on strings, as I've grown up as a string player, but it is open to any classical musician.

Submissions are always always ALWAYS welcome and encouraged!

If there's a video you would like a .gif of, submit a link of it either to this blog or my primary blog with the time frame requested and I'll do my best! (Highest quality of the performance you can find is greatly preferred.)

Thank you to all my past followers to sticking with me and to all my new followers for joining in! Here's to classical music and the like.

Sander Cohen’s Scherzo #7 from BioShock.

I've been playing this game quite a bit as of late. The scene where Cohen's splicers chase you down while the Waltz of the Flowers plays in the background was fantastic.

And this little gem is marvelous. I need to bring this to my teacher and learn it ASAP.
