I thought this one deserved it's own thread. Check this guy out playing his violin to Hip Hop rhythms and beats.

I like Apocalyptica a lot. Not hip hop, but pretty awesome. If you havn't heard of them, they're a string quartet that mixes strings with rock/metal. They did a lot of metallica songs. Heres their myspace http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=88699484

This one is called 'A Cello Rondo' which is the same guy doing multiple parts of the song with a single cello that would normally take 4 or 5 instrument players I think. I think the Rondo is more than a cello, including a violin, guitar and perhaps more. Pretty neat what can be done with the right sound equipment.

Apparently Rondo (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rondo) is a classic musical style. Here is an example of classical Rondo (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRg8Iy05b_U) and a Quartett Cello (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ra-a9fup_Vw) group if you are interested.

And this guy is pretty cool. Same song as the Quartett Cello group was doing but he is doing on his fourteen-string "Tapatar" guitar with two-handed tapping. 14 strings!?
