- Not very often in your life do you get the opportunity to be taught by, arguably one of the greatest guitarist in the world now alive. Lucas J. Carballeira, a senior at the Bolton Guitar Studies at the University of Arizona, had the privilege of having a master class in guitar with David Russell.
Thanks for the courage to learn publicly. It is a gift to all of us who learn along side you.
David Russell seems like such a gracious person. What an honor to have him as a teacher! You seemed so calm next to him. I would be geeking out LOL.
Yes, he is a great maestro, but looks humble
I realize it's quite off topic but does anybody know of a good site to watch newly released tv shows online?
@Phoenix Trent try FlixZone. Just google for it =)
@Deacon Warren Yea, have been watching on FlixZone for months myself :D
@Deacon Warren Thanks, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :D I appreciate it !
Unbelievable how a legendary player of Russell's caliber acts so kind and humble to his students. This man certainly will be remembered as one of the most influential figures in the world of classical guitar.
D Russell is so right about arching the right-hand, it Really needs to be elevated to get more tone.
he doesn't say anything about that. Look at Russell's own hand. Not arched. The only point he makes about the student's hand is where he is playing. He says he is playing too near the bridge and gets him to move and in the 2nd variation he wants him to use the thumb as an anchor and lock the _m_ _a_ fingers together to play simultaneously. When the student tries to adapt to this he flattens his hand and Russell moves it up again but that is not his default position.
Ahhh...the Slonaker fireplace. Where's the FPT, lol?
They call this a masterclass but it's more like just a guitar lesson. Russell seems oblivious of the audience.
Good right hand study
@@zu0832 It is indeed. My hands would be like putty though, playing in front of such a legend.
@@allan2098 absolutely I'd be lucky to execute the first note much less the rest of the piece!
they cut out the part when David stands up...grabs dudes guitar...smashes it...then slaps him...lol jk
...Russell doesn't have a MUSIC STAND!!! This dude wears jeans? C'mon man!!
1:15 why that guy in the blue shirt putting his guitar like that treat your guitar with love bro :'(
You surely don't play guitar this is the correct way to put on your leg when not using lol
Zakaria Guitouni
I thought the same, kinda seems disrespectful for such a fragile instrument.
@@pleasepermitmetospeakohgre1504Fragile?
Thanks for posting, very interesting! No music stands in University Arizona? 😜
What do you really think?
@@carballeira007 i think, yes they have but that day not
Hey that’s me
Entrevista al grande David Russell ua-cam.com/video/OGBo8VPHG8o/v-deo.html
This musical piece is called "Theme and Variation on La Folia de Espagna". Segovia' s rendition of piece of guitar is arguably the best.
Would love to meet David. He is not just a great guitarist but also appears to be such a wonderful person.
booboo My typo... I meant to say 'not JUST'. Editted the comnent. Thank you.
Xuan Hung Le I met him while he performed in the small Michigan town of Fennville, a number of years ago when he was still playing a John Gilbert guitar. He was not only very approachable, but a true gentleman; not full of himself, at all. He played a lot of difficult pieces and I never heard a bad note. I consider him one of the best classical guitarists alive today.
When they play the same 2-3 bars alternately the missing subtleties stand out so clearly.

Thnks you, very good, la guitarr and proffesor
just one simple advise and voila!! night and day difference 6:30
David Russell trying to be polite when telling the student his sound is poor because he knows that thats a very delicate topic.
Yes, a lot of people tell me that. i'm very much into classical guitar and music in general so i'm sure you will keep seeing me around here hahah
A good student appreciates the teacher being honest more than polite . David just happens to be both . Lucky Lucas.
I thought the tuning up was part of the piece. "Stop there. I think you need to use a rest stroke on that bit"
Thanks for posting this
It's variations on "La Folia"
Que bueno tener la oportunidad de una clase con este genio de la guitarra ,,,,,
Bella lezione al caminetto. Grazie!
"arguably" LOLOLOLOL!!!
Interesting, thanks for sharing! Having played this piece myself I do agree that the ending to the theme and variations doesn't sound too conclusive. I suppose your score may not have had it, but this work also comes with a menuet in the same key, although it's rather supplementary. Anyway, I hope all goes well in your guitar studies :)
The score i downloaded from pennywise also has the minuet but it isn't in the same key; it's in E major
has anyone got the exact title of this piece by Sor?
It's not by Sor but by M. Llobet: variations on a theme of Sor, Op. 15
He didn't play the 10 variations though...
You can find it here: classicguitare.com/partitions/llobet/Variaciones%20Folia%20Op.15.pdf
Eric Bilange Thanks, I wondered why I couldn't find it!
Amigo creo que estas equivocado, ese joven toca la versión original que escribió el propio Frenando Sor, la que tú conoces es la versión de Miguel Llobet la cual obviamente vino mucho después. Acá te dejo la versión original.

thanks.
It's Sor Op. 15 (I believe 'c') because there are 4 Opus fifteens by Sor dude, this is NOT the Llobet variations on Sor, this is Sor's variations on La Folia.
Great video!
+VCguitar1 Hello. Please, what he say about the collection of pieces? What webs are that? Sorry for bad english.

What else ? Una Master class con el gran MAESTRO ? Cuando lo veremos tocar en Sudamérica? Gracias
Couldn't afford a music stand?
Hehahahahahaha......
He's Scottish, what you gonna choose?
Whiskey or a music stand?
Why couldn't you hold the camera without moving? Nice video but unwatchable without getting sick
Not really ready; not even far....
Höpö höpö.
Flat inflexible wrist...
So solution is...? Wrist streching exercises and more arch I think.
wrist is fine, it needs to be in a 'normal' position not arched unaturally which will lead to injury.
The wrist assumes this posture because of being excessively tense . This a common
cause of strain injury . It also remains an impediment to natural technical growth and is
usually the cause of students abandoning the guitar . The solution is to revisit elementary
studies and recondition the tactile memory with a relaxed awareness .
This is slow and requires intelligence and a submission of the ego to cope with the
frustration and time involved .
The worst thing is that the student is usually not corrected in their early years when wrist
tension is common . This is often caused by advancement of repertoire at the expense of
natural (esp ) right hand technique . If the younger students teacher has not been educated
with this in mind ( most common scenario ) well , It's the visually impaired leading the even
more visually impaired .TIP , observe John williams' or David R 's right hand , play some simple
right hand patterns on open strings and focus on totally relaxing the rh wrist . Incorporate this
into all your playing without exception.
The tragedy is that you can usually scrape through an entry level teaching diploma without
fixing this problem and obliviously continue to pass the problem on to your young students .
Anyway that's plan A . Plan B is choose another instrument . The musicians injuries clinics
are already over represented by guitarists .
You may or may not agree with my suggestions , I respect that and wish you well .
He is filmed to learn from David Russel, not you. Why are you critiquing his technique when he will gain nothing from you? People like this annoy me. You are only putting on a show, flaunting your level of knowledge.
MrJaykay660 I can certainly agree and say that tension in the hands can be devastating. I lost two years of guitar playing because of wrist injuries and in fact never returned to classical guitar. I now play fingerstyle within the context of songs and play with a straight wrist that is relaxed. It took me ages to gain that relaxation. I suspect that the likes of David Russell are playing with supreme relaxation.
