    Edson, you are, by far my favorite guitarist. I've been playing for a quarter of a century. You're interpretation of the variations is my "happy place." Just wanted to let you know. When I'm having a bad day, I listen to this song, and it makes me smile. Be well, my friend.

    What would Mozart think about that? To my mind, he would probably be fascinated with the guitar and If he could, he would compose for this instrument... I can imagine all of this... unfortunately this will not happen soon ahahaah. However, I can thank you for posting this and for having such a great performance. I loved your interpretation, it is very colorful! Thanks again!

    • @EyeShotFirst

      I think the problem during Mozart's life was there just wasn't a demand for music for the guitar, at least not in Vienna that I know of. Had Mozart been in Spain, I could imagine he might've written a lot of great works for the guitar. Most of the works Mozart wrote were either in a style that was popular at the time, or to showcase a solo musicians talents. It's quite interesting that no works exist for the guitar, I don't even think Mozart wrote anything for the lute either, which was a little more common in Baroque repertoire, but by Mozart's time might've been considered old fashioned. Then there's the issue of sound, Mozart wrote pieces of music meant for smaller gatherings, but these were often pieces written for the clavichord or other instruments that weren't as loud as a horn might've been. Perhaps in an alternate universe, Mozart lived to be 80, and met someone like Sor and became quite fascinated with the instrument.

      @@EyeShotFirst Yes Mozart wrote a piece for Ben Franklin's Glass Harmonica which Ben invented. I has a wonderful sound but can get at some people especially as it great a sounding eerie if one wishes. Mozart's piece is great. Mozart did write four works for Lute. From reading at Mozart time guitar was considered a lower class instrument. As Mozart wrote a ton of his stuff on commision no request for guitar no works for it. Also seams like no great guitar works had been made or great players had rose to prominence. And Guitar yet another sting instrument not this new never anything like it Glass Harmonica by the known super genius Frankland who was known to all of upper class.

    Mais uma excepcional interpretação do maestro Edson Lopes, que através de sua técnica apuradíssima, sem demonstrações de virtuosismo exagerado e desnecessário, devota um total respeito pelo violão e pelos autores. Como é bom para nós, amantes do violão, escutá-lo. BRAVO !!!

    There is something about this man that’s different than all the other great players. I realize he has his PhD and is a professor of classical guitar. There’s more to him than that, as if that were not enough. I believe many, including me, can hit a note. Sometimes we hide an individual note for whatever reason. Dr. Lopes makes every note seem personal and distinct. I hear everything he’s playing. He has something that can not be taught or practiced. It’s within him and I believe that’s why he’s so good. If you add in his education, years of practice and a complete mastery of every song he plays, you end up with a great guitarist. Without his instinct and feel for every note I believe he would simply be just another guitarist like the rest of us. Yes, I’m aware of the 1,000’s of hours he’s played is his solid foundation. Regardless, he is encouragement and I appreciate every note he plays. I can not say that about all guitarist.
