I was lucky enough to study with Emily back in the mid-80s out in Brooklyn, found an ad she had run in (I think) the Village Voice. As much as playing, we'd have coffee and talk about music, players, random BS, etc. This was after I had gone to GIT (now MIT) out in Los Angeles. I played a more loose Texas blues mess of a thing and her influence really had an impact. As much as I loved her electric playing, it was amazing (that word gets overused I think, but not in this case) just sitting there with her and hear and see her play her Ovation, having some dopey flavored coffee :) Damn, a guy could get emotional thinking about that!
Maybe I'm biased but I think she was close to breaking out to a wider audience. In addition to her playing... she was an incredibly nice person. I recall more than once I'd play some cliched licks and she'd sort of laugh and say "That's the stuff people want to hear". I'd look at her half-embarrassed because she was just so good, obviously miles above me, I didn't initially get what she meant. It's great to see and hear her influence is still here. Thanks for this video!
What a great story. I’ve considered directing a fan documentary about Emily and I’d love to,get some extra insight you might have about Emily in the future.
@@iceWaterProductions1 If I could help, sure! It was an interesting time for me and she was incredibly nice as well.
Thank you for sharing your story of your time with Emily. I fell in love with her playing in the '80s too. Some days I loop her recordings over and over. She inspired a lot of us and sadly departed too soon. Thanks again!
@@ericschwartz9982 As good as her playing was, she was just such a down to earth person in my experience with her over that one summer. One of those good collection of memories.
Thanks for sharing.. Emily was and still is I believe, a gift to humanity 💓
I’m 68 and as a kid before getting ready for school I listen to his music. Why my passion for playing guitar is so deep. It was Wes who ignited it.
Love to see young people talking musicianship seriously it warms my heart so.
❤
This restores my faith in humankind.
A bit of a stretch. But she’s good!
@@LordGreystoke ....well, at least my faith in Lithuania.
I’ll give you a hundred bucks for that overstatement, it was a big one.
Yeah? A person playing good blues restores your faith? Agreed that's a stretch
@@ottomattix86 I see her as more than 'a person playing.....etc.' She's a young person who obviously eschews the current mindless trend. She isn't interested in the 'wooba wooba wooba' crowd...those who simply make juvenile rhymes and talk to a beat. She is disciplined and reveals a quality commitment to real music. It's disappointing to me that people missed the deliberate overstatement. You make a little joke, and it shoots right over their heads. It seems that some folks simply aren't very bright.
This came on randomly when I was in my wood shop and it kept me extremely focused while I was working. Love it.
No distortion no tricks finally somebody that treats the instrument with respect
And in turn, gains respect!
Wes Montgomery would love this Piece of jazz music
Absolutely wonderful
Thank you :)
Wow jazz is alive my compliments 😊
Thank you :)
That model Epiphone is the warmest I’ve experienced. Packed House. Loved it.
Nice. Keeping Wes alive. Not to many can walk that in chords anymore. I am a huge fan. Joe Pass, Carlton and now YOU!
It always great to see young people playing this great music, so perfectly.
It provides hope for the future of music.
Wow, that young lady will be on the next wave of Jazz artists! Such great talent and promise of things she’ll develop on her own.
Can’t wait to hear more about her in the future!
Excellent! Your drum fills were perfect. Perfect solos too. Well done.
Wonderful! Love Emily and this does justice to her music and memory
Wow! How smoothly she switches from using a pick and then palming it.. If you were not looking for it you might not even notice. To do that and make it look effortless and not disturb the rhythm or dynamics or timbre a hair, is certainly not easy! Off the charts talent and work ethic to accomplish so much at her age. I love Emily Remler, though we never met. I credit her VHS videos - a decade before getting the excellent Nelson Faria book, and after learning Charlie Byrd stuff by ear, with giving me a real introduction to chord melody playing in the Bossa Nova style. Her boyfriend (for a while) - Larry Coryell - had a huge influence on me as well. They both had a fresh sound. Cool that they appreciated each other on may levels.
As someone who deeply loves Wes Montgomery and plays with my thumb a lot as well let me say just how much I appreciate you and your dedication. I could hear the Band accompanying you in my mind, and your playing was flawlessly in time with them.
There are people who simply play notes, and there are people who tell the listener a story through the instrument. And I really liked this story)
Very tasteful lines, fantastic groove and chords. Wow!!
Excellent performance , Wes and Emily, great sounding Jazz Guitar
Wow, tone and technique
Palming the pic flawlessly
Great dynamic execution
I can't even look at my guitars now...
Wow! That’s talent. I bet we will see much more of this young lady. I hope so.
Incredible musicianship! Thanks for sharing your fantastic talent.
So good. Many lessons for any guitarist in this video. Great string muting. Nice tone.
Beautiful job. Very inspiring 👏
Pure class 💎
Thank you :)
That bass walk has always been a joy to the ears. Very well played. That right hand playing of yours using your index finger as a pick is something I love to do too, but my fingernail then goes kapput. Thanks for posting.
So very good. She has the “spirit”.
Thank you!
Amazing playing. It's unusual to see this kind of talent in someone so young. Great tone too
You would be surprised how it's not unusual. A lot of young players are going crazy
And it’s a friggin’ Epiphone! 😂
@@mikaelbiilmann6826 These particular Epiphones have a good reputation and are deemed to be well worth the money
Epiphones are great, I've got 3 😁
@@gminor6288 What particular models, also do you own any other guitar models .
Very cool. I love seeing younger people keeping this music alive.
Great job, Dominyka!! Those octaves were spot on!! Great feel and timing! I bet Wes is smilling in Heaven!
Real nice swing feel here! It's not easy to play solo like this and make it swing. You rock!
There is hope for planet earth.
Absolutely BRILLIANT playing! Wes and Emily would be proud! 👍👍👍👍👍
wow nice. I was fortunate to see/hear Emily at The Clearwater Jazz Festival just after I moved to Florida. She did a guest shot on stage with John Schofield. It was magical.
Really phenomanal playing. Everything is super clean and the neck of that epiphone sounds really good.
the neck sounds good?
@@swmathus8176 neck pickup. Sorry should have been more clear.
Now, I wanna buy an Epiphone Les Paul. 😂
@@mikaelbiilmann6826I've got one and I love it more than any Gibson I've played but I could be biased
it's really nice to her a young female guitarist actually playing music and not only fast
I wouldn't despise it, no. Unfortunately I didn't say so (to keep my statement short) but i meant to compare her performance with that of other female guitarists, not with all guitarists in general. Actually, when I come to think of it, only to those female guitarists who upload youtube videos of their playing and which i happened to watch so far. So, sorry for the confusion and that i hurt your or anybody's feelings.
Great work. It’s so nice and reassuring that there’s hope for the world when you see the youth paying respect to the masters like Mr. Montgomery. Side note I know Wes would have loved your strap.
Emily’s interpretation stands on its own as well.👍🏽
Nicely done! I love hearing this kind of jazz… thanks for posting!
What a swing she has!
This is so clean it kills 99.999% of bacteria
amazing ! you play so cleanly it is a pleasure to listen to
Thank you!!!
Fantastic rendition of a classic tune. You absolutely nailed the Wes Montgomery feel!
As a guitar player, I can tell you that that walking bassline on the bottom strings with the chord melody on the top strings at the same time (from about 1:08 to 1:20) is unbelievably difficult. Excellent job.
Thank you so much!
Wow! Absolutely stunning playing! 👍
Thanks!
O my my my...HOW BEAUTIFUL! Wes will always be deep in my heart, and Dominyka, you have truly laid down his tune very well.
Thank you :)
Excellent Dominyika!
Thank you!!
Восхитительная!
Šaunuolė,puikus atlikimas❤️
So good! I love that Epiphone Les Paul custom too.
Thank you!
Fantastic job on this West Montgomery song. I just read the life of West Montgomery and he died young but his contribution to music and jazz was exceptional. I think you are the resurrected West Montgomery. Thanks for the video and keep playing.
Thank you so much!!
Understated, subtle swing, smooth, with a cool ease. 😎 like butter
bravo! emily and wes live. fantastico
obrigado
I think this guitarist has more than earned her own Gibson. Great feel and vibe. It's great to see the younger generation paying homage to such an iconic musician and his music. Well done.
If anything she proved Epiphone are awesome!
Really really great playing and thought the tone sounded excellent, fantastic job!!
Love that you got that great Wes thumb strumbing sound, very well done.
Now I want say something right off the bat. I've been playing for 25 years and let me tell you sitting up in front of a large audience like that playing unaccompanied Wes tunes with no band behind you takes a lot of courage and conviction. I respect that sh*t. There are a million other styles of music this guitarist could be performing here, such as original jazz, classical guitar pieces...none of that would be as difficult or impressive as what they've chosen to do.
Thank you :)
Well played guys, loved it!👍❤️
Very very ....good ....Keep it
Beautifully played 👏👏👏👏
Absolutely outstanding. I hope you go far in your career, wherever you want.
A very talented young lady and as a guitarist myself i tip my hat to her
Very, very good Dominyka!!! Go On!!!
Nice!
Bravo!!!!! Wonderfully done. 🤩
Great job!
Somewhere out there, Wes and Emily are both smiling when they hear this. 😊
Greetings from Helsinki!

Truly amazing!! LOve the tone...Love also the Epiphone Custom LP>
Great recording , playing and TONE ! I am sure that hardwood floor wakes things up ! And some natural reverb in that room .
Thank you :)
Those octaves with her middle finger on the low E were very cool!
Loved and subbed - you have it my dear, inside your heart you have it. It's about making music not fretboard gymnastics. Shalom.
Wow - I’m giving you a standing ovation right now! I was lucky to see and hear Emily Remler give a performance/lecture at my music school (NTSU) less than a year (I believe) before she died. I bet she would be really proud of you carrying on with her inspiration.
Unbelievably good! I just discovered your channel and I’m hooked!
Thank you :)
Nice job - you are keeping some great music alive; keep it up!
Great job!!
More Emily!!!
wow such a sweet head bopping grove. I love music that works well with standalone guitar, and this piece has incredible proficiency.
Thank you!
Nice going ,girl. Sweet interplay of chord and note. Dont stop now.....😍 loved it.

What a gift to share with others. You are young and already so accomplished. Good grasp of how to use your right hand to produce different sounds. Wow just keep doing it. Nothing compares to the feeling of connection to others through playing music.
Old guy in Midwest USA listening to talented young Lithuanian girl playing awesome Wes Montgomery jazz cover. Spanning half the world , most of a century, and a few different cultures.
Isn't the internet great? 😃
Thank you so much! I love old music!
