Looks very comfortable. NOTTTTTT!!!!!!!!

However, he does a fantastic job
Maybe rewrite the book on how to play the violin.

It is a violin though. He might as well take off the chin-rest though. It adds weight and serves no purpose, unless this is only a gimmick and he plays both ways.

Do you think he is blind as well?

From what I could glean online about this player, he's a self-taught blind man.

great playing !! makes it his own

Bach : As the greatest expert and judge of harmony, he liked best to play the viola, with appropriate loudness and softness
