Netflix's Wednesday has taken the world by storm and many have been buzzing about the iconic Rolling Stones cover of Paint it Black performed by Jenna Ortega's character on cello. This scene prompted many cellists online to attempt the difficult arrangement, with one arpeggio section in particular being deemed "impossible to play." Although she doesn't play the cello, Boston violinist Mia Asano has cello strings on her 7 string electric violin, allowing her to take on the challenge of learning the piece. She has since posted a cover of the viral arrangement online - garnering over 300k views on her youtube channel.
