Every instrument in the music world today was invented because of someone who fiddled with a thing for a few minutes longer than anyone else
-
pulls out a drill "you know, I'm something of a musical carpenter myself"
-
Natalia's guitar playing really sells the idea of a wild western feeling. Just a few people hanging out by the campfire, bored, until someone comes out with a guitar and a saw.
-
Wow, she plays SO in tune! Amazing! Like a acoustic theremin!
-
The saw is eerily vocal, it almost sounds like a wailing sound. Its so pretty and haunting.
-
I like how she's a virtuoso on such an unusual and uncommon instrument but an ordinary acoustic guitar is alien to her :D
-
i love that it only resonates when creating the "S" curve and essentially has the timbre of a sine wave
-
There’s a lot of joy in this video. I love how they both enjoy playing each other’s instruments and are both natural musicians
-
I'm really impressed by how precisely she can control the pitch of the saw!
-
the whole idea of common objects being used as instruments has always fascinated me. I remember the moment I found out that my computer CPU cooler could play all the notes from A5 to D7 by twanging the fins, I spent hours every day trying to play songs on it which completely destroyed my fingernails
-
Her energy is infectious!
-
"Drill doesn't make for a good instrument" sounds like you're issuing a personal challenge to Venjent 😂
-
Its sounds like an old record of a woman singing, its trippy… the closest to human voice from an instrument i’ve heard.
-
When Rob plays, it sounds like a drunk theremin. When she plays, it’s art.
-
It's just so satisfying to watch two people REALLY passionate about music in a room together
-
Glad to see someone doing this properly. I love weirding people out on site when they ask to borrow a saw and I ask them what key they want it in before I stat "tuning" it with the handle of a mallet. Terrible for the saw, but great for laughs.
-
This is the cutting-edge musical technology I've been wanting
-
Things Rob will try to do on everything instrument he encounters: 1° Tapping 2° Slapping
-
My grandfather played the saws as well as many other instruments. Any time I hear the saw it brings back so many fond memories.
-
Thanks to Ms. Paruz for devoting so much of her time and effort to mastering this quite difficult and demanding instrument. Without her, and others like her, the skill -- even the idea -- of playing music on a handsaw would disappear.
