Based on the video's presentation, I can say that with the performance of Capriccio in C minor, {Grammar – End of sentence and beginning of new sentence.} { The section highlighted in blue has nothing to do with the music that was in the videos. Not sure what you watched.} the music is about two close friends and of which one of them passed away, and so the other one decided to compose six songs. The first five songs were written for the violin. However, the sixth song contains sorrowful and painful moments during the funeral. Also, it includes a specific range of hope at the end. He seems to get deeply affected by the song and being in the moments the two friends experienced on how the performer presented the music. These sad moments make the performance even more pleasing for the audience, and at some point, they also get attached to the song. During the performance, this performance enlightens the audience with a bit of cheerful vocal part, which switches the audience's mood from being too emotional to joyful moments, just like the story he is explaining.
By shedding her illusions, at yet painful a cost, Violet has also initiated a new type of faith and hope: a certainty that her life's promise does not hinge on divine intervention but the homelier reliefs of human attachments. On a previous performance, the music left some of the audience crying and smiling. And with such a show, actors were bumping up and down on seats in order to recreate a particular impression like one of a bus trip. However, it was not too hard to figure out that a performance about a female who deliberates that she is repulsive and will eventually deal with issues of beauty and the nature of love. Moreover, this show does, but it also discovers guilt and belief, verifying many things one can do when you have great songs and beautiful singers and keep it simple.
2.
Basing on the performance by Niccole Paganini, {Paganini is the composer not the performer.} I can say that this song seems like a story with joyful moments and ones with hope and love. All versions always change the mood and the emotional state of the audience. In this show, the audience seemed amazed and joyful since Violet seems cheerful and the performer as well. During the performance, Niccole appears to illustrate a sudden moment of sorrow. It seemed like a painful moment when something terrible had happened, and it was something that left many in tears. The central part of it all is Niccole's Violet, with lank hair, lean limbs, and a splendid voice that cuts through complex emotions without always belting {clearly not the same video- she is not singing, she is playing the violin.}. This moment affected the audience as well as a moment of silence was seen, and everyone seemed to listen to the musical message portrayed.
The joyful moments seem to occur recurrently hence portraying a happy story. In the end, the audience seemed really impressed with that performance. I can also say that this young performance has surprised many due to her performance of several notes without mistakes and her divine and outstanding courage. Basing on my own experience, playing the violin is not that easy, and the fact that a young performer likes Baganini {Paganini-spelling error} can do it as easy as that is a true inspiration to many. In addition, the performer illustrated two and a half minutes of pure flex, and also, if you watch her face, she just looks like she is either peacefully falling asleep or is mildly amused. Just so relaxed. Violet conveys a silent spiritual undertow to its appeals' search for stimulating connections. It's emotionally sustaining without being manipulative. It is also useful in displaying hope, love, and faith in human nature.
