Virtuoso's back with a short and sweet lesson where theory in the art of card flourishing is concerned.
"It's not what you do. It's how you do it."
What is style?
This is style.
Trivia:
A visual lesson in style was about to be put together by Virtuoso, and this coincided with an ongoing competition where the art of card flourishing was to be fused with the art of filmmaking.
Virtuoso submitted this video, and we're proud to announce that it emerged champion.
Enjoy.

Virtuoso [vur-choo-oh-soh]
(vûr'choo-o'so, -zo)
n. pl. vir·tu·o·sos or vir·tu·o·si (-se)
Adjective
1. Having or revealing supreme mastery or skill.
Noun
1. A person with masterly ability, technique, or personal style in the arts.
The art of playing card flourishing is expression through the manipulation of cards utilizing a deck's ability to split into 52 parts.
It is an extension of the flourisher's personality, where through this expression he finds a sense of freedom.
In 2004, four artists in Singapore formed the card flourishing team, Virtuoso, and took the world by storm.
They took a break from the public scene in 2006 to reconceptualize their team.
The year is 2007, and here Virtuoso pushes the limits of the art again like never before.
Welcome to the tip of the iceberg of what's to come.
The Virts...are back.
