I have always loved Black Violin since I first heard of them. I am a violinists as well, ironically I put the instrument down for 15 years and when I heard these guys, my heart filled again and I knew I had to pick it up again!!! Awesome music. Love you Black Violin.
These young men are amazingly talented, creative BEYOND the box, and inspiring to all with message of hard work, diligence, and enjoying what you do.
Every time I see these young black men play makes me want to pick up the violin and play again. Awesome!!!!!!!
This is so friggin awesome and inspiring - these guys are talented - authentic - and they are really helping the world stay inspired - think outside the box - and believe in yourself! I dig this so much!!!
I have always loved this group. ❤️
i have replayed the end several times. That was beyond beautiful!!!
Love you guys I applaud you alot more than this audience! give it up ya'all! They are awesome
Black Violin musicians Kevin Sylvester ("Kev Marcus") and Wilner Baptiste ("Wil B") are wickedly talented bringing generations together though music.
Love these guys Great Music , but I want People to also check the Music of a Black Violinist from the 70's who blended that classical sound with R&B & Jazz , his name is Noel Pointer
You got it, I'm checking him out now. Im ALWAYS down for suggestions
Man, phantazia is the best thing Ive heard since I was shown Curtis Mayfield.
Just bought front row seats at Byham Theater, in Pittsburgh for your show in March '23. So looking forward to the experience. Thanks!
unbelievably good!!! amazing collaboration between two sounds
Yes i agree they were amazing!
This is awesome! At my school, we are learning a hip hop dance for this violin music! We will have to perform it at a field-trip.m😀👍🏻
Yeah we had it today it was so fun
+Brittany Ortiz
Hi, just came back from the field-trip I was talking about and yeah, It was really awesome! We were dancing in our seats and outside. It was so cool!
This is so wholesome lol
I know these guys they're Black Violin I had to watch their performance on a field trip
But that was in like 2012
Inspiring. Creative. Dope.
It's like introducing bacon to a burger
Roland Hazard that was deep bro....
Roland Hazard HAA HAA ... bacon.
Omg the middle I loved it soooo much
Beautiful music.
Love these guys!!
Wish they would recognize the woman who started it all instead of acting like it is their idea...Apollo who they mention...is where she took the house down!

Hmmm. It seems as those Miri Ben-Ari and Black Violin came out around the same time. Miri Ben-Ari performed on Apollo in 2003. Per the timeline that he mentions, Black Violin actually sent a tape to Apollo in 2002. Both Miri Ben-Ari and Black Violin played at clubs, etc.... during the same early time period-- early 2000s. If Black Violin had started after Miri became famous, I would totally agree. However, I don't think they can be wrong for stating how they came into the blend of mixture of classical, hip hop and R&B.
I belive this is why the strings evolved what moving music
positive vibes👍
They are saying how they started out not throwing shade at no one.
All the Haters out there get with the 2014 this sounds better.
actually, most music of today is shit. this is good. but most of 2014 sucks
Purest 💯💐
17:20 ... so good...
Killing it from !7:38.
Man the violin piece is superb
Why doesn't Miri Ben Ari get the badass recognition she deserves? disappointing...especially from 2 amazing talents.

Very beautiful music
Yes , excellent
ted never seems to have the strongest audio engineers foh the ones they bring up, the drums are not mics correctly at all for this type of room and over heads are so damn loud you need more of a front reflective surface to block as much bleeding noise so you don't get phase issues between the top and bottom mics between every other mics the rooms reflectivity and the speakers or else you loose all your low end and it sounds tinny like this. besides that these dudes are awesome
William A. Roesler They are not the first but they have taken it to a whole new level. The first to do this was a jewish woman who beat the crap out of everyone at the Apollo. You try and look that up and see who you come up with.
Exactly....the sound was awlful unfortunately, ouch to ears
I know the song they played in the beginning was brandenburg, does anyone know the one they played at the end?
So inspirational 👏👏🙌
Amazing....
Thats more...musicsoulscream :)
I wish they had a rapper.
Listen to the long version of dance with the devil by immortal technique (about 8 mins) i think at around the 6 min mark this track comes on. Song is good but depressing
I love you're music
Yeah!
Love it!!!
What song is this? It is dope as hell! Black Violin
Where are you now?
Awesome
me too 😊😇
Gayla they did there style and into did her style.

Heard about this group from the Trilloquy Podcast. Check it out.
musica boa

Cherry on top, how about that😊
Sorry, I don't know what FIU is...

cool 😁😁😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
They tapped into a forgotten talent and the flood gates will open.
What's the point of his mention of 9/11?? 😂
:)
: D
isn't this simply classical music put to a hip hop funk beat? what is so world changing?
Hate
Terribly out of tune, yet stylish and innovative. Since very few people have perfect intonation, I suspect most people won't realize the pitch of their notes is very wrong.
Wow! music critic
get over it
It makes me sad, something so miserable I have long heard! And that is not ashamed to present at TED !? I'm sorry to have to write like this .... (Please forgive me for my not quite perfect English)
need a better drummer!
Sorry but I personally disagree. Today I went for a shows that they did today and their drummer was awesome!
Omg the middle I loved it soooo much
