Jazz Violin - Autumn Leaves - slow swing

[@p.h.x.7056]

This man is the man that show me how beautiful violin and jazz are. So sad that he passed. Rest in peace, you worked hard.

[@jorieru8556]

where did you get the news of his passing if I may ask? just curious

[@Not_human8383]

@@jorieru8556just google it

[@mrmoshe8157]

​@@jorieru8556The violinist is Retaw Boyce, you can google it. He passed away because of Fatal Car Crash, he was 31 years old at the time of his death. Its very sad and tragic. He will always have special place inside our hearts.

[@imb08]

The sheet music he posted in the description is it guys. This song is a popular standard and is often left open for interpretation. The song is for the most part improvised except for the melody (that is unless someone decided to write out a violin solo for this tune). Welcome to jazz, Violinists'

[@PootisPlayer]

i’m here March 19th, 2020, and i remember jamming out to this song when i was younger about 5 years ago. i’m.. so sorry to hear that you’ve passed. you’ve inspired me to pick up my violin once again, but i hope that this 2 AM half-asleep comment shall fulfill the desire. thank you so much dude, you’re amazing. rest in peace.

[@imasiontist653]

[@barrypixie9489]

Damn Man! RIP? Wha? U r just a young feller...! Loved this since u first had it posted ... nearly 12 years ago... Now listening again.... Your enthusiasm makes it like a lesson... delivery so expressive, almost anyone would want to remember, to try to learn, even one single phrase of your style, to swing like you, hep cat ... even me. We were some kind of a community back then... I was useryug ... Now checked the news .. only just in 2017.. Condolences to your family and friends.. Thank you for the music x Love .. PS. In 12 years, this is the best improv I've heard around this tune.... So you got the longevity man... albeit posthumously xx

[@klausgreene4034]

It must be wonderful to make people feel good and not at the cost of others

[@vikramrajiyer]

Profound...

[@abhinavaggrawal2280]

I’m already trying to learn piano but I’ll learn to play violin if you do.

[@PatrickVida]

I am listening to this. I am a violinist myself and had to play at a celebration spontaneously. Retaws playing and his backing track saved me yesterday. My Thanks to you Retaw, thank you to the spiritual dimension

[@harrykoschorreck8144]

dear one....this has been my favorite piece of music. I reflect on losses pain of being human and the joy that is often balanced over the scales of time. Thank you for playing so beautifully.

[@jaymesmorris3990]

Pixar shorts vibes specifically old man playing himself in chess. I only just found you and I am heartbroken to know the world has lost such talent. However I am also over joyed and I hope you are too to see the amount of inspiration you left behind and continue to make even after your passing. Rest in peace.

[@sarahdunston1338]

I have watched this so many times. dude you are such an inspiration to me. I saw this clip and I was like- 'I wanna play like THAT' so it hurts me, to watch this a year later, and know i am still no where close ( sigh..) ah well, maybe in ten years! I'll just keep plugging along..

[@basilcilantro622]

Sarah Dunston Same here😢

[@david7638]

How about now?

[@ronin3054]

[@jmike1373]

[@YokoshimaSTAR]

"Just fiddlin round... need some real musicians instead of this midi backing!" A human being, with dreams, plans, and hopes, passed away just like that

[@LoveMusic-nq7pi]

So wonderful. The best rendition of this famous swing. Immaculate violin playing with so much soul and beauty.

[@petromic1947]

This is one of the best renditions. I love it 👍👍👍👍👍

[@sydpao2224]

I was watching the TV Series the Originals which is set in New Orleans and the music there is great. I saw some scenes where there are violinists playing jazz and I thought the the music is so rich and relaxing... I searched in KZbin and found this. Great, now I am a fan of violin jazz.

[@DavidChristieCareerCafe]

Masterwork. I wished for longer but our time is our time. Thanks mate.

[@PAS4L]

It is 2020 October 21 at 2:14 pm and let us have a moment of silence for the people that can’t find this Beautiful music

[@atomic_playz1211]

In 2024, this is still way more beautiful than a lot of performances.

[@huseyn.abizadeh]

I've been learning violin for one month already and I'm wishing to play like this. When I'm done, I will come back.

[@RetawBoyce]

If you do a google image search for Autumn Leaves Music or search by its French title Les Feuilles Morte, there's a few versions available. Otherwise message me with your email and I'll email you the version I have.

[@Pr0phet_Taker_official]

Rip😢

[@brian777999]

This is a seriously good version of a well known jazz standard. I love this blues style of jazz violin and there is precious little of it on the internet. Thank you for posting it and how about a few more please ?

[@RaYiitOz]

2022❤️❤️❤️❤️ you're still making our hearts dance, thank you!!❤️

[@Pr0phet_Taker_official]

Never gets old

[@911CleaningService]

I could listen to this over and over......I recently started violin and would give my right arm to play like that. shoot, that's not a good idea. I'm fascinated not only by the great playing but the tone your getting!

[@marjiepage7574]

Thankyou for making my day with your great rendition of Autumn Leaves xxxxxxx

I only recently came across this looking for inspiration music, and this performance genuinely has so much soul put into it. I love everything about it--- but It's awfully unfortunate to hear that the guy passed away, rest in peace.

You are one of my faves!! I want to hear you play more pls!!!!!!

[@suzannefontanesi5991]

R.I.P Retaw love this piece and I listen to it when doing homework

[@noname8354]

People have been telling me jazz on a violin sounds good, so now I'm here. The smoothness of the strings makes it sound good for this piece, but other instruments still dominate jazz, as there are styles that won't sound good on the violin

[@ncao]

He played viola.

[@MisterBigBlunts]

It took me a while to figure out what this song reminded me of, but I finally nailed it down. It reminds me of the some "There Are Worse Things I Could Do" from Grease.

[@erickcedenomatute8958]

tu cover es impresionante, tiene otro sentimiento(your cover is awesome, you have another feeling )

[@nicolastratford10]

That is so beautiful. Please, bring out a whole CD with similar music!
