I Hired Violinists To Play IMPOSSIBLE Music

"The Last Rose of Summer" by Heinrich Ernst is famously known as the most impossible piece of music written for violinists. I paid these violinists to learn it in 2 weeks, can they do it?

thank you Rob! It was a pleasure to make the video with my Viola for this challenge!

[estherabrami]

Haha Hilary makes it look so easy but that was definitely a challenge 😂

Love to see some of my favorite people working together! Great video! One of your best Rob!

It's crazy how hilary doesn't even sound like it's just one person playing

[FrankTedescoOfficial]

Such a cool video man! Your content is always top notch

[chapinero]

I don't understand all the inner details of the violin, but your videos are so fun to watch! ^

[jshazam]

Given your talent, I really love it when you react to the best violinists. I have no idea what is even going on but for some reason it is great to see you comment (or just drop your head in amazement lol) at their skill. Great video!

I hope you emailed the scammer back and wrote that you're friends with Esther and that she was livid and that they'd be hearing from her PR Team and attorneys. Put a little scare into them! If would have been funny if you tape a session with Cerebral to discuss being scammed and how it made you feel, if would have been a hilarious way to highlight their service. Fun video as always!

Hi Rob, I really love these "To Play Impossible Music" Challenges! I do hope that you do more of these. Cheers!

I first heard Hillary Hahn on the Soundtrack of the movie The Village. Regardless of whether you liked the film (which I did) her playing is as beautiful as anything I’ve ever heard. This challenge was amazing. Thanks!

I don’t know anything about the violin, but I play the piano. These videos are still so inspiring for me, I love seeing those who have mastered their instruments. Hilary is unbelievable, everyone did a great job for the time frame though! Very fun video to watch

[samv]

One of my favorite of your videos! I love that you showcased the range of difficulty and skill of pieces and violinists. So much of what you get on the internet is limited to decently played pop music

[risingunity]

Hilary Hahn is extremely skilled and talented, but ... Hats off to you ! And all your fellows (except the $100 scammer) who could manage to play the piece properly, in 2 weeks!

[OiseauTriste]

My favorite thing about this piece is that it's not just hard it's also musicly satisfying
Especially Compared to some paganini pieces

[Sasquatch]

This video gave me a much greater appreciation of the talent of violin players and all the little nuances that aren't immediate to the untrained eye.

[VampyreRS]

I honestly love your videos Rob! Your content is thoughtful and well thought out! Thanks for a great video!
