Here is a short version of the Japanese song "Double Lariat" by Agoaniki-P played on the violin! I have to say, this song is deceptively really hard to play! The melody is not so hard by itself, but the backing track ended up is so syncopated, it took forever for me to get it sort of right... I move around a lot in this video, but it actually helped me stay on beat a little better! =) I really like VOCALOID songs - they have some of the most interesting rhythms and melodies! I hope I can play more of them in the future!
Here are links to the original version:

It was kind of cold the day I filmed this.. The location is the Garden of the Gods city park in Colorado Springs, Colorado. It is a free park to visit, and is such a beautiful place! I could spend all week there!
