Post Something Cool From The Internet

This is very, very cool, yet hilarious.:p He's a very good violinist, IMO, and he made a looong home video, including so many episodes and change of images. And he merely has learned a decent amount of music. And it's not an easy task - to translate the idea of movie, epoch, genre and mood through the solo violin performance. I think, he deserves applause.:up:

 
Nicholas brothers. Jumping jive with Cab Calloway. An excerpt from "Stormy weather" movie.

When I was a kid, for some reason I was fascinated with tap dancing and wanted to learn it, but gheez rural NZ, no chance of that.

Probably you could try to attend an ordinary ballet school when you were a kid...:shrug: The matter is that people who know how to dance classic ballet, will be able to dance any genre or style (folklore, contemporary, historical, and even Irish dances, etc...). Because the set of movements is pretty much the same everywhere,- just in different combinations,- though it doesn't look like that. But... it's not ever too late: nowadays there are plenty of dance schools for adults of different levels (you can still be a newbie and already study at a dance studio,- you will just need to find a group of your level).:)
 
Very nice arrangement of the famous piece "The lark" by Mikhail Ivanovich Glinka. Arranged by Miliy Alekseyevich Balakirev. Piano - Eugeniy Kissin.

Despite the obvious discrepancy of a nice arrangement, and tasty harmonization of this super popular (mostly) Armenian song, and of this creepy stupid video,- i couldn't help downloading it and installing it as my ringtone (this, new version is just of a better quality).
Everybody loves this song, and i heard it a few times before, but i didn't know its name. But suddenly, the singer's channel, that i'm subscribed to, came up with this song in my recommendations.

"Sareri hovin mernem"<3, lyric's translation:
"Would die for the coldness of my dear mountains
Die for the coldness of my dear mountains, die for the coldness of my dear mountains;

Would die for the loftiness of my dear,
Die for the loftiness of my dear, die for the loftiness of my dear,
One year passed as I haven’t seen him,
Would die for the one who has seen him.

The rivers stopped flowing, stopped flowing, stopped flowing,
Their waters do not bring any news about my dear,
Any news about my dear, any news about my dear,
What if my heart would become cold,
Unless you inflame it with your love.

Stand halted, cannot walk, cannot walk,
Cannot drop any tear for him, any tear for him, any tear;
One year passed as I haven’t seen him,
Would die for the one who has seen him,
My dear is always in my heart,
But won’t tell his name."

Sevak Amroyan & Sona Shahgeldyan, "Sareri hovin mernem" ("I would die for the coldness of my dear mountains"). The arrangement is so ...armenian.

More "intimate" performance on Ukranian version of the show "The voice". The judges are crying, lol.
