. . . it just hits you straight in the face.
Unfortunately, I've just run out of every excuse that I can think of as to why my Violin playing is so bad:

Thanks for posting. Incredibly sensitive performance.

I cried the first time I saw that film. That performance was extremely sensitive with a beautifully mellow warm tone, and empathetic use of vibrato.
I loved the way the brilliance on the E string was balanced by the warmth on the lower three.
No excuses for anyone now about poor bowing, his bow control was amazing.

What beautiful playing. I showed this to my daughter who is learning Remembrance at the moment.
Not sure yet whether it has inspired or depressed her.
