Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas - Ray Chen

[@keonl5613]

I appreciate that I can watch world-class violinist's small concert at home.

[@Fidi987]

And today, in "lockdown light", we appreciate it even more!

[@cke900]

Same it looks so cosy

[@evamarek5205]

Same!

[@annettenelson5321]

Thank you Ray. god Bless you! I am 74 and have been playing for 5 years now. You are such an inspiration to me. I am learning from Julia TERMEER.

[@dannykelp]

Ok Ray I expect a full Christmas album now

[@chblodle]

dannykelp yesssss

[@harlinable]

是啊

[@ruthgarcia8277]

Me too

[@eldoubleu2250]

with singing too

[@billace90]

Omg, that Joachim Strad has such a beautiful and warm sound in both the G and D strings! And of course, in the virtuoso hands of Mr. Chen, it just shines.

[@kveeesh]

I got this video + the one you made a day ago both within 1 hour in my recommended.

[@az-bp7ns]

So this is how this song can sound. Really nice. ❤

[@jh.y00N]

As always your playing touches the heart!!! Thank you for your beautiful playing!!!👍🏻✨🌞🎻👑💖💖

[@elleneugenio9986]

I really love how you play your violin😊

[@kasianag2008]

It’s so beautiful! My favourite Christmas tune. Now I really want a whole Ray Chen’s Christmas album 💖 Merry Christmas everyone!

[@Aliseelike]

Xmas again. But this year is very different from last. Thanks Ray

[@wat5991]

I've watched this countless times since it first released, and it's just so gorgeous and emotionally charged. It really sparks something deep within. I always find myself thinking about it

[@echen1716]

I’m in love now...with Ray Chen’s playing

[@anjanavolz4069]

Wow Wow what a sound , fingers moving like melded butter. When do we see you again ? crying crying!!

[@Ep1897]

I watch this every day. At least twice a day. The most beautiful sound in the world. Your tone is just so beautiful and makes me really happy and fuzzy.

[@作る食べもの]

I want to know why am i crying listening to this🙂 Why people cry when they listen to the music from heaven🙃

[@easy_riders]

It’s time to put this on repeat again!🎄

[@nb7524]

Watching Ray play this so beautifully is now a part of my Christmas time tradition. It is so very pretty🥰

[@harryjavila5626]

Absolutely exquisite! Ray Chen + Christmas + Stradivarius= Sheer Magic! Thank you!

[@easy_riders]

I’m glad the time has come again where I can listen to this on repeat. Happy memories, thank you Ray Chen!

[@zazazebee]

I listen to this every year now! I love it so much!

[@tallfrog1234]

I saw you perform is SF and I can't get enough of your music.

[@razerblade3302]

Thanks Ray from England..

[@NN-cg5jm]

You play absolutely beautifully and I love how you really feel the music. I can feel your loving caring way to play. It's so unique❤

[@calcad24]

[@hyunjung06]

들으면 마음이 따뜻해지는 곡이에요. 아름답고 포근해요. 연주 감사합니다. ^^

[@Cyrilmc222004]

Thank you so much Ray, I really really enjoyed watching you playing this piece it’s really really stunning and cute and adorable too. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags

Ihre Leistung gibt mir immer voller Liebe und Segen Die musikalische Atmosphäre, die Sie interpretieren, hat oft Bilder in meinem Herzen Danke Vermisse dich ~💐

[@chita1419]

Ray your performance including face appearance let me enjoy the happiness and peaceful moment with laughter thanks

[@marklee7864]

I am so glad to hear your music 😉 Today, I had some problems in my workplace. But now I am getting better cause of your sounds. 🙏 Bless you.

[@janonkulis]

Thank you for making this first snow day even better

[@musicaljourney1469]

Beautiful phrasing by the Master of Violin.

[@VioletMidnightProductions]

Makes me want Christmas back.

[@xuxingalwaysfeelsleepy4939]

Hope u will have a merry little Christmas with your family and friends!! It's so beautiful 😆

[@ilknure.6261]

I feel like all the violinists are related. First I found Rey, then two set. then I learnt that they are friends. I saw Sumina' s one or two videos too and now I learnt she is his girlfriend..... Small KZbin world...

[@lilyyates5039]

And then there is Hillary Hahn too 😂

[@lifeontheledgerlines8394]

@@lilyyates5039 ".... I don't want to misrepresent my colleagues." - Ray Chen on imitating the playing style of Hilary Hahn. Also, are you a game theorist?

[@adamsong8514]

And Janine Jansen once appeared in a Twoset's video. It indeed is a small world.

[@lilyyates5039]

[@jungahsombke6106]

Thank you for that beautiful gift. Merry Christmas to you, Ray!

[@jieeun1965]

I bet Ray can play violin with just his eyebrows

[@jasonlam4306]

What a Ling Ling workout it would be!

[@GDO428]

Beautifully played! Like anything he plays. And he’s such a handsome guy! 😊

[@neoniahazelwood9263]

A golden performance by Ray Chen.

[@krizstinademe4044]

Please try to have a full christmas album next year Ray! So beautiful rendition! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@SuperSimpleSauppe]

Beautiful Ray! Good to know you also play Christmas songs and not just the classical songs you usually play at the Hollywood Bowl.

[@oboisteun]

I'm happy for having you. Your music is like a voice of my old friend to me. Thanks Chen.

[@ogoak8479]

Have yourself a merry little Christmas Let your heart be light From now on our troubles will be out of sight, yeah Have yourself a merry little Christmas Make the Yuletide gay From now on our troubles will be miles away Here we are as in olden days Happy golden days of yore Faithful friends who are dear to us Gather near to us once more Through the years we all will be together If the fates allow Hang a shining star upon the highest bow And have yourself a merry little Christmas now Here we are as in olden days Happy golden days of yore Faithful friends who are dear to us Gather near to us once more Through the years we all will be together If the fates allow Hang a shining star upon the highest bow And have yourself a merry little Christmas now

Perfect to effect vibrato!

[@TheTucsonJeff]

Excellent Ray! Thanks for making this short but uplifting video! Happy Holidays to you!

[@harlinable]

是啊

[@chrisma3256]

I'm glad you did something like this after the Ben Lee video which really had me thinking for a while. We are so used to seeing people being roasted we find it funny while from another perspective it might be really hurtful. Can you please stick to the encouraging, artistic and educational stuff ❤ because I really like your playfulness and adore your way of interpreting and explaining. I don't want to catch myself applauding you while rudiculing others just because you are someone I'm generally looking up to... ❤ the Polyphia video was so much more exciting 😊 Thank you for sharing so much with us ❤ Have yourself a merry little Christmas and a happy new year 😊

[@amychen8911]

So beautiful, it touches my heart! Thank you for this amazing Xmas music!

[@wendyy.8401]

The dislike isn't from a human. It's from a robot. Since it lacks emotions.

[@adamkovacs4265]

Its impassible

This is soooo beautiful... Heavenly performed! So touching... 🙏🙏🙏 Merry Christmas!

[@joycedelrosario2218]

Ray Chen, a world class violinist, made a video.....but a lot of the comments pertain to Twoset Violin. Hahahaha

[@claireding3163]

And what about it? They are actually friends.

[@violinsheetmusicblog]

Keep coming back to this

[@vesselinatp]

Well, as the snippet on Instagram (one shouldn't say IG is worth nothing... 🤣) resonated strongly with today's inner energy, I decided to hear the whole rendition.. So, thank you for a most inspiring, evocative, christmasy gift... 🎁
