    The Wroclaw Guitar Festival deserves to be called the most attractive event in the Polish guitar life and one of the most interesting events in the world. Its uniqueness stems from the fantastic diversity of the styles, repertoire and genres of the presented guitar music - from the classic of the guitar and even lute music, through the fascinating flamenco traditions, to the hot-tempered Latino music and bustling with freedom and energy jazz. Therefore the number of the lovers of the Wrocław event is very large.

      @guitarworks2546 5 років тому

      the first thing you have to accept as a musician is that there are NO rules...and anyone who tells you otherwise doesn't know what they are talking about! otherwise why would you create 7+ string guitars, 5+ string basses, sitars....or ANY instrument for that matter...someone has to give you one so you can sit with it and figure out what works for you.....if there were rules there would not have been players like Hendrix, the late great Jeff Healey, Django Reinhardt or any number of other players that didn't know or care where they were supposed to put their pinkys.

      How many /left hand/right hand zooms etc that don’t show exactly how his hands work in perfect harmony.Producers and editors need to think carefully about this cam switching away at crucial moments where we learn nothing because the shots are bouncing between five cams.

      @@RicksTastyLicks How are movies relevant, and what sort of (false) equivalence are you insinuating? Did it not occur to you that Stephen451 just might be a guitar player trying to figure out how Martin Taylor does what few others can? It may very well be that this music video (not movie) was shot with casual viewers/listeners in mind, but that possibility notwithstanding, it does seem a shame to me that diligent and attentive musicians have relatively little access in this cut-up video to important visual clues about how to execute precisely, expressively, and fluidly on this proficiency level. I think your comment was unhelpful, snarky, and perhaps not as clever or insightful as you may have thought. MacMic333 obviously understood the original comment; I'm not convinced you did, even though I see that your profile pic shows someone, presumably you, holding a...wait for it...guitar.

    he's always great but this song - for me - needs to go back to ballad / see Pat Metheny / Jools Holland version....

    Awful interpretation. He's neither neat in tempo nor in tone. A mess. Taylor has long earned his reputation for being fast, why showing off at the expense of butchering this lovely song? Don't know why" indeed.

    • @rktrkt-tw8nd

      Where he lost tempo , can you please tell ? This kind of music takes at least 4 to 5 times listening to appreciate specially if you are not habitual of such mastery.

      @@NickC769 How does your experience of seeing MT live possibly affect the quality of this here rendition or my knowledge or feeling about the work of jazz guitarists? MT is a very successful, great and especially fast finger style jazz guitarist with a long career, no doubt about it. And that's why I don't understand what he did there. His performance does not work technically, many many unclean notes, tempo not even, rhythm off etc etc. And on top of everything else: why speed up this particularly dreamy ballad like that? Pat Metheny did an interesting acoustic version (in some show with Jools Holland), made the song very much his own yet did it justice and he absolutely mastered the form he had chosen. In my humble opinion.
