Violin Concerto, 3rd movement

[Jerry Gerber]

This movement was produced before sample libraries even existed, so the instruments are primitive compared to what we have available today. But Karen Bentley did such a great job playing the violin part that I am posting it to share.  Produced in 1997.

She did a wonderful job playing!

Nicely played

[rdbrad]

Fantastic piece!

[Starise]

As someone who attempts to play violin I can understand the difficulty in playing to this level. Excellent both playing and writing here.

Thank Starise, RDB, garybrun and InstrEd for taking the time to listen!

This is great.  I played in a rock band with a violinist who is now very well known in certain classical circles.  This reminds me of her, but I think the technique is even better here.

Thank you Steve!

But I think it is a great illustration of how one “live” track can take a midi based backing track to the next level. 
Beautiful track Jerry.

Thanks Tom.  I probably will never go back and re-do the mix, but even with these "ancient" samples of the mid-1990s, I could have gotten a better balance between the acoustic violin and the digital ensemble.  Live and learn....
