    Absolutely beautiful! Very simple, no extra movement or excessive vibrato. You don’t feel it the first time you hear. Watch it for the 10th time. You will be touched by her inner beauty. She makes me cry. Then I tried to play the piece myself. It took me 30 minutes to memorize the piece. Yes, I can play it easily on my Vuillaume violin. You know what; nothing came out close to her sound. I finally realized that it must have taken her 30 years of practice to get that result...

      @VoopsyMan The original comment and reply are in Portuguese. The comment reads, “Beautiful and engaging. Melody and interpretation.” Which I took to mean, “Beautiful and engaging melody and interpretation.” The reply reads, “Violin, intense and engaging sound. It is uplifting and makes you dream.” I hope this helps!
