I repeat myself, but I love your bowing technique, so precise, subtle yet powerful ! Also really nice voice !

[tagelharpalair]

your playing is very inspiring!
Beautifully played.

[MikzorTheFirst]

The dynamics here are insane! The dry scraping in the quite parts is so pleasant on the ear that it's actually triggering a bit of ASMR.

[karolinakaminska]

It was just wonderful! I'm in love with sound of this instrument. And your voice...so clear, so soft, beautiful! C:

[TheMrCrinkle]

Such wonderful playing. Your bowing and the feeling you play with is incredible! ✨

[panpannarkor]

man, this song is so great ! Thank you for your music !

[mas]

Wow! It has almost flute-like tones.
You can also, easily hear where traditional and bluegrass fiddle tunes, came from originally.

[miesterckx]

Very, very beautiful. I know the sound of the instrument from the CD but never saw the instrument before.

[willsonpaul]

I love your playing!!! Ive watched many of these videos and they are all great🙏

May i ask
Do you use different tunings or always keep the same tuning?

[Vandimion]

This is beautiful, thank you for this! I wish i could do the same, but i think it would take many many years to master this instrument.

[ghenny]

Love this one! :) This one's one of your best Viena ones, I guess :) and one of Sussu's best solo numbers ever :)

[ruchamapolak]

I've listened to this so many times now. I love your playing and singing. What's this song about?

[charaev]

[albertosantolaria]

mima rakastan minä olen espanjalainen hyva jouhikko

[jamesgregory]

Did you write the music for this song?

[kavikv.d.hexenholtz]

Sounds like your bow could use a bit more rosin. Doesn't sound like it's quite grabbing the strings.
