So many great players! And not to mention the Guitars! This is such a great resource. Makes me wish I was still playing. Parkinson's Disease had other plans for me. I am grateful that I am over the anger (well most of it, and most of the time!) and can be touched on this level by these great players, playing these great instruments, by some of the best composers. Thanks for your wonderful contribution to our lives!
I'm so sorry to hear this. I guess you can still enjoy music which is a great part, and the reason we are all here for this performance. I wish you and your family the best.
That's sad. My teacher was one of the greats and had a stroke and lost his left hand dexterity. He started playing base because he could still move his left arm well enough and music was his everything.
Sorry to hear that man. Good that you are still able to enjoy all that fantastic music that is out there. Although I am a guitarist myself, I am also just here as a listener.
@@antoncigur3727 i understand. I had a neck injury that damaged my spinal cord. I can still type but slowly. Fast movements arent there. It does take time to get used to.
I remember mastering this piece. Extremely difficult, many position shifts, many hours of practice...I always felt I never actually played it perfectly, always thought I needed to practice it more. Very well played here sir.
irmasil3 i'm at it. I've practiced it so much that i don't know too if i'm playing it as it should be. I don't see nowhere near the day I say i've mastered it. cheers
+Andrew Bradford I have not practiced classical for more than 5 years. I mainly play flamenco now every now and then. I am more focused on electric the last 10 years. I was practicing this piece almost 10-12 years ago. Although I still remember parts of it I am far from playing it decently now. This was my show off piece for my classical guitar diploma. I do not understand what makes you skeptical. Yes you should "master" a piece when its your show off piece for the most important examination in your classical practice. As you master all the rest for the exams as well.
irmasil3 I remember flying to mars and meeting aliens. Must have been 10-12 years ago now. But who cares, we’re here to celebrate another master musician not wax our own ego’s
Barrios was an incredible guitarist/composer massively underrated in his lifetime. Segovia got all the credit, Barrios should have toured more in Europe and I'm sure he would have been more famous. IMHO
Tony Smith If I'm not mistaken, Segovia respected Barrios. He said and I quote "didn't like his folk elements in his compositions." He most likely would've played his works if he got his hands on them.
kgunitkeese17 my guitar teacher one told me Segovia was envious towards Barrios, as he had success while not following the same philosophy as Segovia himself, who is said to have banned Barrio's pieces at his school
Outstanding guitarist - Federico Sheppard Morant - playing a superb, beautiful, exquisite instrument. Bravo, Maestro! Thank you Guitar Salon Internation!

Gracias por tocar de manera esplendida esta maravillosa pieza del Mozart de la Guitarra Clásica mi compatriota Agustín Barrios, desde La Unión -Murcia.
Excellent melody of Barrios and played brilliantly especially the 3rd movement. What a technic. What a clarity of notes. What a nuance, Bravo. Thanks for uploading..
It is a thrill to listen to this perfect rendition of a fantastic Barrios Mangore piece, on an exquisite guitar that has a powerful and sweet voice. Congratulations maestro Espinas!
¿Qué habrá tenido Barrios en la mente? ¿Habrá él escuchado esto previamente, o lo habrá imaginado? De las dos maneras, Barrios es insuperable. Ha marcado el techo de la guitarra. Ya no puede ser superado, porque su genialidad es genialidad entre los genios, y sus obras son obras de las obras. Ha marcado todos los límites. Ya es inalcanzable.
Que Dios te tenga en su gloria Señor Barrios. Naciste en tu querido Paraguay y el resto del mundo te ama y admira. Lo que no conseguiste en vida lo tenés ahora. Sos grande Barrios.
Звёзды сошлись. Замечательное сочинение ,исполнение,звучание инструмента,звукозапись. Если меня спросить ,за что я люблю гитару ,я просто посоветую посмотреть этот ролик. А если это слушать в живую , находясь рядом с гитаристом,то это не передать словами.
terrific audio quality. It sounds like a superb guitar, and a top-notch artist. This is the piece I would most look forward to playing if I were to learn classical guitar.
Bravo Manuel, beautiful, I used to think that Berta Rojas's version was the definitive but this is truly amazing to hear your version as well. Both versions are different but perfect in their own rights :)
I love how this piece was incorporated into the song " Bodhisattva Cathedral " for the Original version of the anime 'Hellsing'. Such a beautiful song, glad I could hear the original composition 💗
Everytime i hear this i just get sad, when i was 17 i almost learned the whole piece but then i started studying and i never fully finished it, now ive gotten worse and started to play the piano more, i just wish I'd be able to play this
This song is my favorite of all guitar pieces. I have heard it play many ways and the technical players have a hard time bring this piece to life. I enjoyed the life you have brought to the piece, it was so good that even the few "technical" flaws in the 3rd movement were completely forgivable. Thank you.
Very well played. The allegro was really quite pacey and I wasn't sure at first that you'd be able to keep it going but you did. You certainly did. Very fine job, indeed.
La perfection pour l'interprétation .j'ai longtemps travaillé ce morceau mais la maladie europhatie ma démolie et je me contente de quelques accords. Bràvos
0:04 - Preludio "Saudade"
2:40 - Andante Religioso
4:53 - Allegro Solemne
¡Gracias amigo!
Gracias men
I love how he sits there all chill and unflinching yet still puts so much passion and precision into it.
Impenetrable focus. So impressive.

Y es inmenso a pesar del tal Segovia.

bravo Manuel, alma latino-americana, tu interpretación és un monumento majestuoso grande como una catedral.
Caro Albert, qué gusto saber de ti. Gracias por tus comentarios. Ojalá nos veamos pronto. Un abrazo desde México.
Outstanding guitarist - Federico Sheppard Morant - playing a superb, beautiful, exquisite instrument. Bravo, Maestro! Thank you Guitar Salon Internation!
It was a silly error. I embarassed myself. Thanks for letting me off lightly, Ricky.

Beautiful and daunting. How he plays the Allegro at his speed is, well, beyond amazing.
I thought the ana vidovic performance was the best I'd heard but this was truly mind blowing-bravo!
Lovely performance! Barrios was a true genius of the guitar, and Mr Espinas plays this piece so beautifully.
De todas las versiones que he escuchado de esta pieza, esta es mi favorita. Sonido muy limpio, excelente interpretación. AMAZING!
Excellent melody of Barrios and played brilliantly especially the 3rd movement. What a technic. What a clarity of notes. What a nuance, Bravo. Thanks for uploading..

un genio, casi hasta la locura...
lo que el sentia o pensaba....lo traducia en sus obras... llenas de emocion
Barrios, el gran Genio de la guitarra.
I think this is the best performance of this piece I've heard. Bravo!!!
Que Dios te tenga en su gloria Señor Barrios. Naciste en tu querido Paraguay y el resto del mundo te ama y admira. Lo que no conseguiste en vida lo tenés ahora. Sos grande Barrios.
A great interpretation from Manuel Espinas here...clean and so musical!
That is some gorgeous playing and solid technique! Well done.
he played it so clean
Ikram Maududi its because he has a clean heart
..he played like a machine without any emotion!!!
@@parishadnz.6048 he would have played the exact same way while making a ton of unnecessary mouvement and weird faces and suddenly WOW EMOOOTION
@@zacharylagace-s.7086 jeez you got me
Lol classical folk
Bedankt
A campfire, friends discussing legends, that cool evening breeze, the stars peeking through and this music..ah perfect..
그대의 연주는 나를 쉬게합니다
Thank you veay much
I have been listening to this piece for years. Amazing every time, awesome work.
I love Manuel's rendition of 'La Catedral' the best! Kick ass guitar player!
Fabulosa interpretación, Manuel un abrazo. Excelente guitarra.
This is the most accurate interpretation of La Catedral in UA-cam I've seen so far.
Gracias por tan Grande y Humilde Interpretación del mensaje del Maestro.
Awesome! Love the sound of that guitar too! Super bright! No room for mistakes on that bad boy.
Wunderschön gespielt, Sauber und genau, Hut ab. Mein Großen Respekt.

Play this : play everything.
It's that difficult plus that musically instructive plus that beautiful.
This is played so fast! Astonishing.
A very demanding piece masterly played! I particularly liked the steadiness of the tempo in the allegro.
!!! Manuel Espinás !!! Brillante ejecución. Le hace Honor a la Guitarra Clásica un placer verlo tocar. Grandísimoo
terrific audio quality. It sounds like a superb guitar, and a top-notch artist. This is the piece I would most look forward to playing if I were to learn classical guitar.
Amazing! So beautiful sound and perfect clear, speed 😍
One very graceful and perfect execution of an extremely delicate and yet complex composition (including bar 20 ! ) I salute you sir !!
Bien hecho! ¡El fuego del timbre puesto en el instrumento del laúd arde cuando el Maestro de Música Ingeniosa interpreta al Maestro Barrios!
Bravo Manuel, beautiful, I used to think that Berta Rojas's version was the definitive but this is truly amazing to hear your version as well. Both versions are different but perfect in their own rights :)
Try Demis Azabahic's. My fav.
Simply beautiful performance thank you for this
One of the best performance of this great composition!!!!
Sooooooooo Beautiful - the music, guitar and performance. BRAVI
Beautiful sound, masterful play.
Enhorabuena Manuel, increíble interpretación.
Definitivamente talento Hispanoamericano!!!!
Uma das melhores interpretações
La mejor interpretación de la pieza por mucho! Excelente !
Qué linda obra y una fantástica interpretación, ¡felicidades! Gracias por compartir.
Killer! Great performance and tone. What a lovely guitar.
Very well played. I really liked the way you've made vibratos during the first initial chords. A breathtaking atmosphere listening to you. Congrats!
I love how this piece was incorporated into the song " Bodhisattva Cathedral " for the Original version of the anime 'Hellsing'. Such a beautiful song, glad I could hear the original composition 💗
Started relearning this piece and... wow I don't think I'll ever play any of this as good as he does.
Grand guitariste à la hauteur d'une grande guitare! Bravissimo!
Guau! Manuel, exelente la interpretacion, el sonido de la guitarra. Da gusto escuchar.
i feel chills
it means it's awesome.
Best version i have seen so far on youtube, my respects maestro!
I guess I've never really watched anyone play this before. Wow! Well done.
Magnifico bien ejecutada y como siempre la música es fabulosa
What a great tonal quality. Thanks
Everytime i hear this i just get sad, when i was 17 i almost learned the whole piece but then i started studying and i never fully finished it, now ive gotten worse and started to play the piano more, i just wish I'd be able to play this
If You try the Best You can it would be enough, don't give up, You can do it.
A GIANT GUITARIST WITH SUPER NUANCES AND FEELINGS...I WISH YOU HEALTH AND MUCH MORE SUCCESS...!
Fabulous. Fantastic. GREAT. Really like this.
Truly great guitar. Great execution from a virtuoso. I was about to say too pizzicato but then you got smooth and presto. I was wrong.
Le son de cette guitare est incroyable !
This song is my favorite of all guitar pieces. I have heard it play many ways and the technical players have a hard time bring this piece to life. I enjoyed the life you have brought to the piece, it was so good that even the few "technical" flaws in the 3rd movement were completely forgivable. Thank you.

un chef d œuvre de barrios le génie de la composition bien interprété j adooooore barrios ce grand compositeur mort dans la

Superb! I mean, there's a lot of string noise from the left hand slides, but even Barrueco produces them. Congratulations.
Guitar and performance are beautiful...in all respects. Wow.
Simply amazing
une trés belle interprétation!!!
félicitations pour le Maître
Su maravillosa interpretación me encanta.
Amazing. You play perfectly.
despite those confusing last notes, I can say it's a perfect performance
So beautiful
Very well played. The allegro was really quite pacey and I wasn't sure at first that you'd be able to keep it going but you did. You certainly did. Very fine job, indeed.
Very enjoyable, nice. Guitar sounds good.
i am yet to see a better performance of La Catedral than this work of genius.
Very good stuff.
