The question was posed on The Point's Facebook page asking which instrument you wish you could play. A majority of you said the violin. That is also my wish. I think it's because we have now seen the many different emotions of the violin. It used to be thought of as  a slow weepy instrument and sound, but now it can rock, or it can be used to add to emotion to great rock songs.  You could spend forever on YouTube checking out all the fantastic violinist.  I picked a few of my favorites.  Please comment below and let me know your favorites.

 

 

David Garrett covers Michael Jackson, Nirvana, Metallica and more, he's also been dubbed the "fastest violinist in the world". Oh and of course he's totally sexy.

Lindsey Stirling makes the violin seem carefree and hip with her cute style and fun foot work.

Blue October (a band that I adore) has a very dramatic and sad side to their music, violinist Ryan Delahoussaye adds an intense part to that feeling. Don't let his horns scare you!
