Svetoslav Costoff - Classical Guitarist
E-mail: intouch@costoff-music.com
website: www.costoff-music.com/
Svetoslav Costoff is born in a family of musicians in Sofia. His grandmother, Lilia Costoff, is the first bulgarian violinist, which has performed in one evening „the three B” (concerts for solo violin by Bach, Beethoven and Brahms) with the Sofia philharmonic orchestra. His father has played the cello in several famous orchestras in Europe and has performed also as a soloist. Growing and thriving in the embrace of music, Svetoslav Costoff goes already four years old in his father’s footsteps and begins to play the cello. Later he chooses his instrument to be the guitar. His first teacher Emil Petrov inspires his musical development until starting his bachelor studies.
After an outstanding graduation of the Academy of Music in Sofia under the leadership of his main teacher - Rossen Balkanski- he expanded his education at the Academy of Music in Berlin with the famous pupil of Karl Scheidt - Prof. Eugenia Kanthou. Master classes with Gerhard Reichenbach, Alvaro Pierri, Zoran Dukic, József Eötvös and others strongly influenced his musical development as a guitarist and interpreter. But Svetoslav Costoff points as a crown of his musical education the regular visiting of rehearsals of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, at the time he was still a student in Berlin, with the scores of the current played works.
During and after his studies he became laureate of several international competitions for guitar in Europe. After that starts his active concert career. At first he performs mainly for the Live Music Now-Foundation von Yehudi Menuhin in Berlin, where he is the first accepted solo-guitarist. He gives active concerts for five years for the foundation in Berlin and Brandenburg. Since 2011 works Svetoslav Costoff as a freelance artist in Berlin- there he resides with his wife and his son until today.

Piano scales with two fingers, HILARIOUS!!! Great lesson, thank you!!
Awesome tutorial indeed, it gave the push I needed to implement this scale-playing technique
Thanks, now I can play 15 notes per second!
Sacrilegious boi!
@@kpobrien1134 Yes, a man of culture as well. :D Now go back to practise please. I'll do so, too.
If you can play first 7 notes per second , then ( in theory at least) you will be able to play 14 notes per second.I'm not sure this will help your music making.
If you can play slowly, you can play it quickly.....
Btfo tsv fans, you all ruined the jokes
i have been so use to using the thumb for the lower notes I feel this playstyle is good for unique instances where chords are not present
this video got me motivated and excited to practice my speed now
Thank you! I will be practicing this tomorrow.
You are incredible! WOW! I will try this now!
Fascinating--I can't wait to try this out. Thanks.
I am not even a classical player, I just dont like picks, but this gives me something to try. Thanks for sharing this!
You should check out Steve Gilson, who has adopted some classical techniques (like this 3 notes per string pattern) to the e-guitar.
So makes sense. Thank you! Will liberate my scales!❤
Fantastic. Thank you so much.
Terrific video, thanks for sharing!
I've been doing exactly this since 2000 when I first started playing nylon strings, and I've never seen another guitarist take this approach. I clicked on this video thinking it would be tips for speeding up your picado, which I'm now trying to do because I decided I don't want to be relying on a 'cope,' and knowing more techniques can only be a good thing. Imagine my surprise. Nice to see a professional give my old approach a little validation. Would be cool to see this catch on, because I think it's useful in its own right, even if you're a picado master. Great video!
wow I can hardly wait to try it.
Thank you!!
Thank you!
thank you thank you thank you!!!!
Great stuff. I also found doing p,i in rapid succession yields a similar result.
Love this video and the personality!!! Thank you
you are welcome!
Excellent technique
Thank you Bro a great Technic 👍
Very Special Lesson on Classicol Guitar Technic. .. Nice One. .. Thank' s so Much ... ☺😊😀/💙💙💙/👍👌👏
Wow amazing thanks
Since when E major scale includes D natural?
Thanks so much. I'm reviewing this again after working on Matt Palmer's approach which sometimes requires substantial refingering of passages. My question, however, is how do you approach 'turnarounds' during a fast passage? Thanks again for this enlightening tutorial!
I like this guy
I definitely feel that playing tirando helps me play much faster☺️
Muchas gracias maestro
Ahora tengo un truco mas bajo la manga
I liked this lesson but I think it is much easier to play fast scales with only two fingers ( usually i & m) simply because the coordination of both hands is easier.You can also play with alternating p and i, which is much like playing with a pick - downstroke with p and upstroke with i.All things considered, the key word here is coordination.
This guy looks like great musicians 😅 looking at him I see mozart or beethoven but alive programmed software... With respect 💝
Yes 😂
Ah yes. Comparing a guitar player to two of the greatest composers of all time who have over 1500 compositions combined. Hmmm no sir.
@@mortraven626 Think you missed the point there...
Oh. Yes. Kkkkk... thanks! A lot!!! I'll try this.
Definitely a very cool technique that can be used in many instances. However, for the pure, fast and explosive scale runs, I prefer rest strokes because the volume and power simply can't be produced without them. That said, it seems pretty tedious to build that picado fire. I'm in the process of transitioning now and it's a bit frustrating ;)
Yes, the thumb!
Amazing video! Thank you.
That is some serious right hand technique that is basically suggesting me to relearn the guitar...
Cool technique though i prefer the sound of reststrokes for playing fast scales speedbursts
If somebody wont's to play at the same time (scale and base) how?
If the base is every second note, then you can't use this technique; but if it is every fourth note, like most of the time, then you play for example i-a-p-m where i plays together with the thumb. The idea is: use all fingers for less presure and more Lightness and if you have to repeat some finger more than the others, then take the thumb
Does anyone know what Giuliani piece he mentioned and played examples from?
Louis Thijssen
Gran Sonata Eroica
@@paneurythmieberlin1068 thanks!
Matt Palmer uses it, in a way higher level of precision and control of sound, and he wrote about it in his book about virtuosity... And he is not the only one...some other like Katona uses as well a, m, i.. . Check it out :) but thanx for making this technique more known :)
What's the name of this technique, please?
@@mohamedibrahem5972 Matt palmer has a book dedicated to AMI fast scales using three notes per string on the LH and AMI on the RH. The book is The Virtuoso Guitarist Vol One. Thanks👍
@@edenic7328 thanks
@@mohamedibrahem5972 pleasure, brother
@@mohamedibrahem5972 and all the very best learning the AMI scales👍
You need only one finger to play one tone on the piano. On the guitar you need two. This is a far more difficult to coordinate. This is a fundmental difference. You can't compare playing scales on the guitar with doing the same on the piano.
Subtitulo en castellanos, por favor!!!
Good idea, but:
_The thumb usually makes a different sound.
_You will not be able to play some specific runs other than scales.
As he said, most people cannot play fast scales but they are whining about how it sounds.
This is very good and his fast scales are impressive. However, it is a false analogy to say playing with two right-hand fingers is like playing a piano scale using only two fingers. The right hand is not fingering the notes but striking the strings - therefore, it's more like tapping out the rhythm of the passage using only two fingers. Which you can actually do pretty fast. Watch a good flamenco player play picado and you'll see how fast you can play with two alternating right-hand fingers.
Okay how did you know we're trying to play etude 7? hahaha cheers
This man is live in 1800s
Will he teach his Beethoven cosplay?

Фраучи вроде это практиковал pmi
I think with free stroke you lose a lot of tone quality. To my ears rest stroke sounds better for most fast scalar passages. That obviously would be a problem with the Thumb because it is a down stroke where as the I & M are up strokes. That said it great to have all techniques in your arsenal. Thank you for video.
Absolutely. I can play pretty fast alternating with thumb and middle, but the tone is thin and tin-like. The tone of picado rest strokes from, say, Carlos Montoya or Paco de Lucia, is simply unbeatable... super powerful and explosive, and simply can't be replicated without the rest stroke.
I wouldn't say you lose tone quality. You get a different timbre. As you do by rotating the wrist or moving towards the bridge or the neck. Surely you would never want to always use the same type of tone as the classical guitars greatest strength is its possibly its variety of tone colours.
Btw Abel Carlevaro teaches that there are more strokes than simply tirando or apoyando.
And yes those Flamenco guys also use "alzapua" basically the nail of the thumb. We have so many options to shape the tone.
don't think it work for most people, it seems asking you play scale while right hand play like a tremelo, use more fingers, but you know how hard to controll and sound like same .....
that's why you practice.
I didn't know that Beethoven was a guitar player top
Sono l'unico a pensare che la scala gli sia venuta malissimo??
Ha anche cambiato l'andamento delle semicrome che vengono dopo
Che dire.. un errore ad ogni battuta e sono solo le prime 3..
No. La penso così anche io. Davvero pessimo.
he breathes through his tongue...
flamenco technique sounds way cleaner
Matteo Renzi's sosia :D
Es una técnica rápida , pero sucia... en el perfeccionismo clásico no sirve.
pues si lo escuchas tocar (piezas, no este video) para nada se oye sucio
Noone cares what you think go eat paellas.
Es increíble que esta manera de tocar me La Haya inventado yo para tocar algunas veces sin saber que ya existía o se le había ocurrido a alguien mas, ahora se que mi cabeza y mi creatividad tan mal no funcionan
I'm called slothful tecnich😂😂😂
It may be fast, but the sound/tone leaves a lot to be desired.
he looks like a combination of beethoven and Gru’s gay french villain-wannabe brother in Despicable me 3
I think I should sell my guitar
...
Schales on piano are easier than on guitar
Sounds bad.
For me too. Nothing clear...
Horrible tone, too stacatto, terrible. Not even a single note played legatto with the next
Hmmmmm i do not agree at all, using the thumb will produce a very unbalanced sound, plus the accent will be steady only with triplets. The examples he play are not so accurate, i mean there are a few fingernails noise and probably the reason it's because of using this technique. I'm not god so i am not saying this is wrong, only, in my opinion if you want to play fast and accurate scales i and m are still the better way to go.
Bad quality of sound with this fingering on scales. Better to practise with i-m or m-i-a....
Bad sound.. wrong scales.. different volumes between fingers.. I've tried, but I can't enjoy a content like this
Excelent. Thank you so much.
