I do not believe that it is possible to create such rankings based on objective reasons - i.e. independent of personal preferences. All the guitarists mentioned belong or belonged to the top of their profession in their time, but so many are missing (e.g. Lagoya, Presti, P. Romero, Lislevand, Russel, the South Americans also have brilliant performers, etc.). All these world-class guitarists are so closely related in terms of their abilities and musical expressiveness that differences between them cannot be objectified.
I dont dispute your list but suggest the live ones must include David Russel.
Yepes plays Rumores de la Caleta by Albeniz
Barrueco plays Cataluna by Albeniz
Segovia plays Fandanguillo by Moreno Torroba
John Williams plays La Catedral by Barrios Mangoré
Bream plays Bagatella by Walton
I could argue with your choices, but why would I? I enjoyed watching, and I bet you had fun putting this together--ciao!
Thank you for that very thoughtful list. For me, Christopher Parkening is number 2 after Segovia. His musicality and interpretative nuance is unparalleled! Just listen to his performance of Weiss' Passacalia and you should see what I mean.
I agree wholeheartedly. But in terms of importance and contributions to the guitar, Bream and Williams miles ahead of Parkening.
Christopher Parkening was a huge influence on a generation of American Guitarists
I read all your comments and your rankings and I would like to thank everyone , Grazie Mille !
segovia..correct!
Most of our old generation may mostly agree your rating. I pick Perkening and Russel among top 7. But how about younger generation ? They may show us totally different rating.
Bream was one of my favorites along with parkening williams and Segovia . I was very saddened when i found out bream had passed away August 14 2020
Celil Refik Kaya playing "Valse Poeticos", is literally amazing.
Perhaps one more. Tal Hurwitz playing "Un sueno en la floresta". Classy classical.
Can’t go wrong with these names!
I love John Williams recorded version of La Catedral. I need to find that link of him playing it live! I think I would still have put Barrios on that list. He was a contemporary of Segovia and their seemed to be some sort of rivalry there. Still a good list and video! :)
John Williams Live plays Barrios Music ua-cam.com/video/mjuKhkkFoNA/v-deo.html
Actually there are recordings of Barrios and he is pretty impressive
@@ThibautKurt23 I've listened to at least one and it is great. However the version I've got doesn't have the Prelude which is one of my favourite parts. He added that later apparently.
@@jasongultjaeff9397 yes even the allegro solemne part evolved over the time. There are different manuscripts version with differences on some licks.
There are also recordings of Barrios playing Tárrega , Bach.
There is a compilation with these recordings featuring also Segovia, Nelly Ezcaray, Miguel Llobet or Atahualpa Yupanqi and others
I've seen Williams, Russell, and many others in concert, but for me the most impressive I've seen live is Pepe Romero. HIs playing is as technically proficient as any other player, but for me, he puts more soul into his interpretation than any other.Even in his 70's his playing is second-to-none. Of-course, your choice of music and musicians is always a personal one., so we all have our own list of the GOATs.
Kasuhito yamashita? yo need to view more.. hahaha
I would include Ida Presti in any list of top players of 1930 to date. I am not alone in this. I was fortunate to hear the top five on your list. I heard Barrueco when he was 15 and studying with another virtuoso in Miami, Juan Mercadal.Year later I "studied" with him, meaning that I performed one piece for him in a tiny "master class" at Belmont Univ. I think Barrueco is one of the top players ever. I spent about a day with Yepes. He was a great person and definitely a virtuoso. he volunteered to give a couple of hour long private lesson in a short time. I learned a lot. However I do not consider him to be one of the greatest of all time.
I agree about Ida Presti. I've heard that Segovia once said that there was nothing he could teach her, which he meant in the positive sense that her technique and musicality were complete.
To be honest I wouldn't dare to make a proper list and indeed: Do you have to include the temporarily
guitar players both male and female? I would have made the list even bigger without giving a ranking.
Therefore I missed Roland Dyens, Abel Carlevaro and Augustin Barrios and by going outside the
boundaries I made, I certainly would not forget Celil Refik Kaya who brought technique together with
musicality to another level. But you're right in a sense that every next generation will have their profits
from what pioniers of the last century already did on their instruments.
Parkening, David Martinez, Marcus Tardelli, Lorenzo Micheli, Bream
David Martinez.. What a treat!
John Williams is the Goat. Nobody sounds like John. Russell, Shuefei Yang and Petrit Çeku are great.
True!
I couldn’t name the number one. To me they are all equally amazing. 😊
Pavil Stiedl maybe should get #6, Buty but butt Marcin Dylla is very special, he plays with the speed and accuracy of John Williams, the zest of Bream and the voicing and phrasing of Segovia. Bream said he was cursed with slow hands. I am blessed with ten turtle toes.
Marcin Dylla's playing is so expressive! In that field he is maybe one of the best at the moment.
I più grandi - una gran parte dei più rinomati - li ho ascoltati dal vivo, a cominciare da Andres Segovia, già, però, avanti negli anni.
Difficile scegliere fior da fiore, ma, se proprio fossi costretto a fare un solo nome, direi: David Russell.
Grazie mille Daniele. Sono d'accordo con te..
Grazie Stephi !
Vera Danilina plays "Tarantella".
I like the old vintage recordings and vintage videos that you shared with us, thank you. However your ranking order has a lot to be considered..
In my days of studying the classical guitar late 1960’s into 1970’s, there were Big Four iconic figures ie. Segovia, Bream, Parkening, and Williams. Easy has his own uniqueness in their classical guitar achievements. No other present day guitarist can measure up to the Big Four!
Magnífico escuchar a los más grandes.
So Parkening does not make the top five? He often sounds more like Segovia than Segovia.
Same thing I was thinking.parkening should have made the top five. Bream, parkening, and Williams all are great guitarists Williams and parkening were students of Segovia. Segovia said that Parkening was his best student .
@@revellhorton9002 There are some CP recordings where he plays better than Segovia. There are several guitarists on the list that I can’t bear to listen to much less consider them among the best players. And where is David Russell?
Top 2 best: Andrés Segovia and Manuel López Ramos
Of course, I do think that maestro Manuel Lopez Ramos should be mention among them and on top of most of them
Great video. Loved the Barrios "gut" joke 😂
Yazuito Yamashita, debe estar entre los primeros el màs virtuoso de tofos.
bellissimo. per favore, son tornato alla classica da poco, puoi ricordarmi che pezzo è quello di Segovia, voglio impararlo subito
trovato, Fandanguillo. grazie . Daniele Magli sei un grande.
Grazie mille ! L'interpretazione di Segovia è insuperabile ma a questo link puoi ascoltare anche la mia se ti va ua-cam.com/video/PO_04o8LSp8/v-deo.html
maestro incredibly I have the same opinion as you ....though Pepe is amongst my 5 ...but the ladies are closer nowdays...Ms Park ...Ms Yang and Vidovic are some of them ....greets from brazil
Julián Bream, #1
1.Julian Bream 2. John Williams 3. Marcin Dylla 4. Manuel Barrueco 5. Christopher Parkening/ Andres Segovia tied for 5th. Honorable mention: Pepe Romero, David Russell. I appreciate what Segovia did for the instrument but the other gentlemen where better players. Julian Bream is untouchable so far. Dylla is a projection pick -he will one day be ranked among the greatest.
Quali sono i titoli dei brani suonati da questi chitarristi? 😍
Barrueco, Cataluna by Albeniz
Yepes, Rumores de la Caleta by Albeniz
John Williams, La catedral by Barrios
Bream, Bagatelles by Walton
Segovia, Fandanguillo by Moreno Torroba
No order :
Alexandre Lagoya
Ida Presti
Julian Bream
David Russel
Manuel Barrueco
But special mention to Segovia, Emilio Poujol,Miguel Llobet and of course Agustin Barrios
For sheer Guitar peformer interpreter greatness........Barrueco for me is far ahead Number 1 ....Sergio and Odair Assad would definitely be in the 2 of the other 4 remaining places, the other remaining 2 slots..well,..... is contestable.
I love it! Honestly I think people that are saying that the list is wrong need to realize that any list like this is subjective. It’s always based in part on people’s opinion. I might personally have put some difference in there (would have put Pepe and Christopher Parkening in ) but that doesn’t mean it right or wrong. Thank you for the video sir ! I very much enjoyed it. Your drum roll thing is entertaining.
Thank you very much, I had a lot of fun making my guitarists ranking video but without the drum roll I wouldn't have done it!
very conservative and traditional ranking!! this ranking doesnt stand nowadays IMHO. Williams and Bream the only ones who merit top 5.
I fully agree!
What is your list? Barrueco is top 5 of course. Segovia too
Adam Del Monte playing "Granada..
Ai piedi del podio che è inattaccabile (Andrès guarda tutti dall'alto ben distanziato) aggiungerei al quarto posto ex aequo Parkening, Yamashita, Diaz, Russell. Tra gli italiani menzionerei Gangi, Chiglia, Desiderio, Micheli.
Cristiano Porqueddu should be on the top 5!
I'd go with Segovia on top, 2nd would be Bream, in the middle Barrueco, followed by Yepes and Williams as the last of them 5, just as personal list bcs all of them are just great musicians and guitarrist. Anyway, good selection!
What place deserves Aniello Desiderio in your opinión
ALL MEN? How about Ida Presti, Berta Rojas, Sharon Isbin, to name a few of the GREATEST
Here best woman and guitarists, playlist by Magli : ua-cam.com/video/LHPPDUOZ_dA/v-deo.html
There is a Magli playlist "Great women and guitarists" , check it out
agreed strongly....thank you and please add Nicola Hall high on the list
Have you seen Alexey Zimakov plays Flik-Flack ( 1987 ) these guys are good but that one can show them off..
Good to see you again 🙌 😊 ☺️
奥古斯汀巴里奥斯曼哥雷是我心中的吉他之神，也是我心中古典吉他创作的天花板，可惜赛戈维亚看不起他，当然我也就不喜欢赛戈维亚了，老赛虽然改编了不少古典名曲，但我更喜欢泰雷伽的改编，它会将吉他的特点发挥的淋漓尽致！佩佩罗梅罗的演奏的作品从录音质量到演奏水准是我心中的第一，约翰威廉姆斯现场的水准还是打了点折扣的，可能是现在的录音技术好了，当代的很多吉他演奏者水准都挺高的！但也仅限几首作品而已，综合实力和作品演绎方面还得是大师级的！
塞戈维亚并不鄙视巴里奥斯·曼戈雷，但他一生都在追逐非吉他作曲家，如坦斯曼和卡特诺沃·特德斯科、庞塞和维拉·洛博斯，以说服他们为吉他作曲。 塞戈维亚通过扩大吉他曲目并给我们所有吉他手一份伟大的礼物来实现他的梦想
@@DanieleMagli 谢谢您的回复！可能我在理解塞戈维亚上有偏差！
You forgot Christopher Parkening. Listen to his recordings. He puts more ‘soul’ into his music then any of these and was Segovia’s top student. Just listen..
All the presented guitarists are fantastic. However, the young man MARCIN PATRZALEK from Poland can easily play any of those pieces as great as they did, or better! Please check on him. Marcin plays classical, Spanish, metal, rock and pop, anything!
Finally, a guitar ranking list I agree with!
They are not only super technical guitarists but also inventors of a personal style... great musicians! Thank you
1John Williams.................................................. 2 Segovia.............................................. 3 Bream
May I present one more. Try "Torre Bermeja" played by Micheal Ernie." He can play that in his sleep.
Without Marcin Dylla it is.. no comments
Parenting? Either Assad brother?
Try Gohar Vardanyan playing "La Vita Breve".
I remember when I once fought with someone, who said that Maestro Segovia was a petulant who mistreated Ponce and other nonsense and that the version of Sor's studies (from his edition) were outdated that now the best was the edition of Tecla publisher, I got it and nothing to do with it, it is true that the one from Segovia is an old edition, it contributed a lot to the world of classical guitar, in my opinion, I don't know why that person got so much hate for Segovia
It has always been like this, there are guitarists who love Segovia's style and others who don't. In my opinion those who don't like him sometimes exaggerate in their criticism... but the positive side is that they still love the classical guitar!
@@DanieleMagli Regardless of the criticism, Segovia was a great Master and left strong columns in the Classical guitar
@@Selford I completely agree !
A buon intenditore poche parole
Marco Tamayo is the best
Great but I think top 5 is a little bit unfair...maybe top 10 it would have been better... In my opinion you should have to consider Mr Tarrega, David Russel, Ana Vidovic, Barrios and someone by your choice...😊
Los dos más grandes guitarristas que ha visto el mundo, por mucho, son Julian Bream y John Williams.
Después de ellos hay muchos excelentes guitarristas.
Segovia fue importante por haber inspirado a varios compositores a escribir para la guitarra y por consiguiente tuvo el gran mérito de hacer crecer la guitarra como instrumento de concierto, pero como intérprete, aunque brilló en su tiempo, hay varias decenas de guitarristas que lo superan. No debemos confundirnos.
I have a great deal more.
I do believe Julian Bream has taken the pride of first place for me amongst giants
Hello Daniele, my Italian brother. I don't dispute that they are all great technicians, but somewhat tainted by the over refined European musical mentality of superiority of classical/academic music. My list of the greatest musicians on the guitar would be...Juanjo Domínguez, ua-cam.com/video/WaDm04lQLMw/v-deo.html Agustín Barrios Mangoré... ua-cam.com/video/gXEn_XYY3vY/v-deo.html In the hands of a passionate common man... ua-cam.com/video/ar8O1RxPyvQ/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/gOS8JGQ1gFU/v-deo.html. Other Argentine guitarists... ua-cam.com/video/CmX9r20x2M0/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/WwNb_GjdXkU/v-deo.html
Eduardo Falú... ua-cam.com/video/sVcgml0u6-4/v-deo.html. Cacho Tirao... Over to Brazil.... ua-cam.com/video/8Zr3pdSq7Us/v-deo.html Carlos montoya... ua-cam.com/video/IArpuiXWnuY/v-deo.html. Django Reinhardt... ua-cam.com/video/aZ308aOOX04/v-deo.html and many more. Hope you enjoy the list. I used to love all the guitarists you mentioned, but since I saw this documentary on Greek blues music... ua-cam.com/video/GDUua2g8_yk/v-deo.html it changed my musical path forever. I no longer play classical guitar repertoire or listen to anything remotely close to classical European tradition. For me, music is for the people. I now love the guitar again.
Arrivederci e grazie.
Matt Palmer
surely john williams is far ahead of the rest
Where are all the superb lady players - for example: Thu Le, Sharon Isbin, Filomena Moretti? I'm not trying to be woke here, I do believe these women deserve consideration in such a list.
There is a Magli playlist "Great women and guitarists" , check it out
@@fabiocamareno5117 Thank you, I shall do so. I do believe, however, that this is not a competitive sport.
Oiga un poco a don Rafael Aguirre. Y repase después su clasificación que es válida por cierto.
Mira, las opiniones de este tipo más o menos se limitan a los guitarristas de su generación. Él necesita ponerse al día.
Hay tres damas entre los grandes: Anabel Montesinos, Ana Vidovic, Vera Danilina.
Ana Vidovic....Are you joking?
Julian bream could be the best guitarist. Wrong video
no wrong video: Daniele Magli grandissimo. grazie mille a lui per tutto quello che fa per i chitarristi
i agree with 1, 2 and 3. yepes does not deserve to be in top 5..also please learn to pronounce the word guitarists...and comb your hair.
Just that one word? He makes
Segovia sound like the late
Queen Elizabeth II. Great site
though. Wonderful videos.
Randy Rhodes ? Lol jk
