    Stephanie Jones is an international treasure. She welcomed us to her "little home recital" but instead treated us to a master class. She begins with selections from the standard repertoire of college student grade material. But from Bach through Sor and Tárrega, Ms. Jones showed us all how to play these pieces with precision and verve. Do you ever hear the sounds of her fingers sliding from one fret position to another? Not even once. Nothing but exquisitely sustained melody with solid intonation. Without fail, Ms. Jones gets her fingers in position for the next series of notes with ample time to spare with grace and authority. And then she progressively revealed her virtuosity from Maria Linnemann's lyrical gem through Brouwer and Charlton's epic pieces. She concludes with two movements of an Astor Piazzolla composition arranged by Sergio Assad requiring virtuoso technique on her part every step of the way. And she delivers generously. We're privileged hear and see all this professionally produced and available for replay with a click of the button. These are the best of times, these are the worst of times.

      If you're being nitpicky, you could hear finger sliding, at least in lagrima since that was one of the ones I really listened in to.

    • @Guppusmaximus
      @Guppusmaximus 2 роки тому +7

      I think she is a fantastic guitarist but her style doesn't emit the tones that Andre Segovia or Christopher Parkening could produce. Those fret noises don't occur because of inferior playing. They happen when the musician is completely responsible for producing the tones & volume without relying on a mic. Especially, when you have a powerful & precise style like the aforementioned guitarists. You just don't hear that nowadays because of the innovation of recording tools being used. Honestly, I miss those Human characteristics. Just my .02

      @@Guppusmaximus She's playing acoustically without amplification. There are microphones recording what she is playing in order to transmit her music to us. If she were squeaking as she played the microphone would pick it up. It does take extra technique to avoid those sounds which she does consistently. Her tone sounds full and sustained to me. I'm pretty sure they didn't modify the original recording. What you hear is what she played.
      There are other contemporary guitarists of similar caliber. It is certainly not the case that after Segovia and Parkening everyone else is just a side note to their glory.

      @@markmitchell6179 Funny---I actually love hearing string squeak in some classical pieces. It's part of the character of this unique musical instrument. That said, I'm dumbfounded by Stephanie's playing. Everything from her tone to her phrasing is just out if this world. Call me crazy but she sounds like John Williams, only with more soul.

    58 years ago I heard Larry Adler play the Bach gavotte on his harmonica in Arkwright road public library (closed long, long ago). Stephanie's interpretation takes me back to those childhood mists and evokes a sweet, gentleness. I never knew the name of that piece until today. Thank you for the evocation.
