Jordan Electric Violins in Concert Videos

I've organized these video samples by style with brief comments as to video quality and sound quality. Some were simply recorded with handheld video cameras in the audience and some were done more professionally with closeups and good camera work. Stage lighting of  the concerts makes some of them hard to make out  details of the musicians such as what amplifiers, etc. are being used. Please feel free to view to several to get a flavor of the range of sounds possible. If you want a broader selection of better sounding samples, let me suggest visiting the Sound Files page for studio recordings. There is quite a bit of variation based on the artist's playing styles, individual violins with different woods and transducer bridges, and amplifiers or signal processing equipment used in the recordings.

JAZZ
Watch a Cathy Morris Video! Not a high-res video but the sound quality is good for being captured live outdoors. Cathy has a lot of fun playing and you can see that in the video.
Watch a Jazz in India Video! Nicely produced video of Holger Jetter and band playing jazz standards with nicely recorded  live sound.
Watch a Michael Ward Video! Not a high-res video and the sound is just captured live in the room, lots of stage banter in the beginning, but some nice playing at the end.

CELTIC FIDDLING
Watch a Tempest Video! Nicely shot video and the sound quality is good making me think it's a mix from the PA. Nice closeups of a tight band of seasoned pros.

WORLD MUSIC
Watch an Ahimsa Video! Nicely produced video featuring S. Radhakrishna on a one of a kind Jordan Double violin in Indian/world fusion band with nicely recorded live sound.
Watch a Saharadja Video! Not a high-res video but the sound quality is good making me think it's a mix from the PA. A good global blend of gifted instrumenalists.

PROGRESSIVE ROCK/FUSION
Watch an Azigza Video! Not a high-res video and the sound is just captured live in the room, but it does have some close-ups and Azigza was an innovative progressive/trance/world fusion band.

ACOUSTIC ROCK
Watch a Downtown Possum Video! Not a high-res video and the violinist is not well lit but the sound quality is good for being captured live. Lots of effects on the violin with nice fills and solos
Watch a Semyon Kobialka Video! I know he's not playing an electric cello in this professionally produced video that accompanies the studio album track, but if you watch the whole video you'll see why I'm glad he's playing a cheap acoustic cello this time! Some really innovative cello pizzicato work and clever songwriting.

ROCK
Watch an Alice Russel Video! Not a high-res video and the sound is just captured live in the room, but the band rocks.
Watch a Robin Tower Video with Glenn Letsch on Bass!  Not a high-res video and the sound is just captured live in the room, but the band rocks on Trower classics.
