Do You Know Of Any Good, Modern Violin Music?
I love violin music, but it’s hard to find anything modern or not too boring. I like Firefly and Sad Sailor from Vanessa Mae, but not a lot of her electric frenzy stuff. It can have some minor notes if it’s beautiful. I also like Lens Violin. I heard a guy one time at a Pow wow in Tennessee that played some New Age sounds and I liked the music. Just can’t remember who he was.
What more modern and interesting violin music do you like or know of you can refer me to?
the first snow. i played it in orchestra. it was cool.
I play the violin, and have been playing for over 6 years. Right now in orchestra, we are playing Halo 3 Theme. I’ve never seen the game or anything, but it’s a really cool song. We are also playing this song called Calypso Jam with Barrage. It’s a pretty cool song, and it’s fun to play. We once played Stairway to heaven, that was pretty cool.
