Dear music lovers! Please check out the recording of my new piece for gut string guitar and string quartet: ua-cam.com/video/_45ZpfbKCt8/v-deo.html Thank you for your big support 😊
No other instrument has this sheer beauty of sound. I know nothing of guitar playing, but knowing these works on keyboard I imagine it's a serious technical challenge to cover all of the voices, as they can't possibly be idiomatic for guitar figuration. Yet nothing is lost here. Bach's solo works are so abstract, so universal, so ironclad in construction, that they seem to be able to survive transcription to practically any instrument, with the right player.
Simply watching Mr. Sudikowicz play is a clinic in the essentials of classical guitar technique. He has such quiet hands as no excessive movement or wasted energy is seen in his playing. Each finger seems to have a separate brain guiding it independent of the other digits but this ability comes with many years of disciplined practice. Fernando Sor an early 19th Century guitarist said, "Of all the compliments I like the one I like best is He appears to be doing nothing." This wonderful playing equally fits that description, great playing, of a great piece of music, rendered by a great artist, Thank you Blazej
Superb. No theatrics, just a high level of musical artistry that allows the work to leap off the manuscript and just live. The guitar itself is a masterpiece by a Canadian guitar maker. Here we have two masters who have been hiding but quietly executing their craft. Now, here the two meet under the umbrella of music by Bach. Wonderful.
I'm glad I found this. Bach sounds gorgeous on any instrument. But this arrangement and interpretation of the Bach's Op.1 No.1 is brilliant, beautiful, and wonderful. I hope Mr. Sudnikowicz has done or will do more Bach partitas and suites. Would love to hear some of the French Suites, which I am sure in his hands will be just as wonderful as this.
Mr. Sudnikowicz you've nailed one of Bach's many 'Six-Packs' with six strings! Absolutely brilliant! The counter point, smooth bass lines etc., With this you've opened up possibilities. I doff my hat to you Sir. Thank you for making the key board music of my favourite composer accessible to guitarists. Harry, India
Wow - your performance nails the Bach feeling. The counterpoint is so strong, the tone so bassy and full, everything is in balance. Also it just has something special to it. You've set the bar high for modern guitar playing, thank you!
This Błażej is brilliant, no other word for it. Agree w/ many comments that he brings to Back a concept fresh, clear & strong, intellectually & emotionally. He gives a sense of having a relaxed & responsive conversation w/ a treasured friend in this partita. His transcription, not least, shows a mastery we might expect of a much older artist. We have a blessing in recent years of the heavens raining down upon us incredible new musicians, spiritual & sensory manna, call it - & their unique interpretations of masterpieces, that do complete justice to those works & to the greatness of the composers. Guitar-centric that I am, it is a point of special gratitude that I feel we owe to these guitarists particularly, & to whomever is responsible in each case for these UA-cam productions. Could one possibly arrange to travel to all the venues of these recitals, for a live experience?
This the best playing and tone I've ever heard, just flawless and he makes those seven fret stretches so effortless, so relaxed, with perfect timbre,his hand remind me of Allan holdsworth, he was born to play this instrument, I mean just alien like fingers, that seem to play impossible contrapuntal lines. I'm blown away. the interpretation makes you forget he is playing a guitar. You've raised the bar to an impossible height.
I keep coming back to this recording… it is such a tour de force🤯 the way you can do those positively impossible fingerings while still keeping such a lightness of touch and sweetness of tone… it’s just mind blowing.
Wow! I have loved JSBach forever, but this is something extra special. I don’t know whether I fell in love more with the performer, the instrument, or the composition... All three together are irresistible! Thanks so much for uploading and sharing your gift. ❤️😍🎼🎵🎶👏🇮🇪☘️
Magnifique prestation de Bach de l'interprète. Je dois reconnaître que le travail de jeux de la caméra contribuent à mettre en exergue la dextérité du musicien ce qui accompagne la douceur de ce moment délicieux. Je l'écoute souvent et le plaisir est toujours présent. L'Art est couplé à l'Europe et à ses population .
One of my favourite interpretations on UA-cam. Great phrasing, great sound, great understanging od Bach's music whom I love deeply. Congratulations my friend.
I've already commented on this recording - but it's so outstanding - here we go once more ;) . The peace, the breathing in the phrasing, the singing of the melodies, the technique brilliantly clear and extremely sensitive ....not to mention that Bach has a divine spirit of his own that reduces me to tears anyway. Of the quarter million replays of this recording, around half a percent must definitely be on my account.....A dream would be to hear an interpretation of all Bach works available for lute or transcribable to guitar by Blazej !
When someone makes a difficult piece look so easy, that a clear sign of virtuosity. Fabulous, you nailed the mood. I can't express how much I enjoyed it. All the best for the coming future.
He didn't say it was easy - actually the opposite. He commented that the player made it look easy because it was so natural, so apparently effortless, and that this was a clear sign of just how good he is. Have to agree.
@@Queenmania2007 Yes being a great player is a clear sign that you - 1 - is/are - a Virtuoso good. Fancy that ! Its like Menachem Begin, or something like that, said, "If they refuse to live as we dictate that is a sign of rebellion" Yes, water is wet !
I raise a glass to: JS Bach, Blaséj, the sound engineer, the videographer. I’ve heard many versions of this, but this is a profoundly beautiful performance of profoundly beautiful music.
This is exquisite, flawless, I was transported. Beautiful technique, dynamic rendering/rubato, and that guitar sounds magical in your hands. Bravo Maestro.
My absolute favourite performance! I keep coming back and am always in awe of this incredible performance. Kudos also to the audio and video team. Brilliant!
While I'm expecting to be hearing more Bach being played by this promising young talent one day, I've been listening to this piece about a thousand times in the last few years. Thank you so much!!
a superlative performance with astonishing details technically as well we musically. In the end though I always ask myself with transcriptions such as this one, if I'd want to hear this composition (a favorite Partita) in this version again... I'd have to say that from the Sarabande on, this one and the remaining movements all would fit that criterion. The Allemande and Courante really are too "key-boardish" to carry the day - notwithstanding a best-of-class performance.
Waouh! Quelle perfection! Je travaille cette partita .... j’ai écouté Gould Pires Perahia Scott Ross Lipatti Andreas Schiff Sokolov Zimmerman Arrau Lewis Lang Lang Argerich... mais je pense que la plus belle inspiration je la trouve en écoutant cette version à la guitare si claire si délicate... À gréât gréât job! Bravissimo !
The awesome transcription of a piece rarely played on guitar , like the Busoni 's chacone or the Marcello 's concerto on keybord, it's a masterpiece , Bravissimo Blazej
dude...if i look away from the video, i swear someone is playing the lute harpsichord just because your counterpoint is so sharp, i gotta look again to make sure its a guitar!

You expressed beautiful, I’m studying Bach on guitar now, and each part of it is an adventure
Very difficult very gratifying
Keeps coming back to this.

Thx for this beautiful performance and clear sound of this music of Bach it made my day starting happy.
that guitar looks like a dream to play
I loved Courante played by this guy. I could listen it many times
Remarkable- I will keep coming back to this. The clarity of the voices is incredibly clear.
This is the finest example of Bach on guitar that I know of. I've tried to arrange this suite for 10 years now.
An Amazing Performance!!! ..
How sweet it sound
It sounds so authentic as if Bach meant it for guitar. Great arrangement and performance.
Speechless. You brought classical guitar to a another dimension
This young man has done an excellent job of playing the guitar. Wish that I had learned to play the guitar at his age.
Superb. No theatrics, just a high level of musical artistry that allows the work to leap off the manuscript and just live. The guitar itself is a masterpiece by a Canadian guitar maker.

Bach played beautifully on the most beautiful of all instruments, the classical guitar. Excellent performance!
BEAUTIFUL playing of a masterwork--elegant, refined, clean and pure and mesmerizing. Bravissimo.
Sprezzatura!
By hearing this I think that the classical guitar future is guaranteed. Thank for sharing...

I love this because I just don´t hear great guitar playing , but really hear the spirit of the music !!!!Bravo Blazej !!
it's great guitar playing as well!
This is one of the most natural performances I have ever witnessed, wow. Think a lot of people would like to hear your play.
The clarity of the voices is amazing. Beautiful arrangement and performance.
Extraordinary demonstration of musicality. Maximum relaxation achieved by a perfect posture. A great master.
Wonderful playing of my favourite composer who dedicated all his work to the glory of God. Thankyou so much.
Thank you for this comment. This piece and this performance do indeed glorify God in a wonderful way.
the best version i've ever heard on guitar. thank you so much
Sometimes a performance just stands out from the rest, and this one certainly does, wonderful!
The Corrente ... Unbelievable... a totally new vision of this... blown away.
EXCELLENT ARTIST.....EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE.....BRAVO.....!
Wow, this guy sounds really really great. what a great tone and mastery of the guitar and the piece. Great player and musician.
A great performance, flawless in any respect.
Wow - your performance nails the Bach feeling. The counterpoint is so strong, the tone so bassy and full, everything is in balance. Also it just has something special to it. You've set the bar high for modern guitar playing, thank you!
Bardzo Dobrze mogę słuchać tą muzykę przez cały dzień!
awesome rendition! bravo, so much sensitivity, clear voices, phrasing....
Good music, good performance!

Provo! Excellent comments...
as someone else said before me, the clarity of the voices is amazing
Gratulacje Błażeju za rozszerzenie repertuaru bachowskiego na gitarę i piękne wykonanie!

Well said. Allan Holdsworth! What an incredible unique genius artist and Masters Master of guitar.
Well said Sal
wonderful transcription and really mature playing of this genius piece!
I keep coming back to this recording… it is such a tour de force🤯 the way you can do those positively impossible fingerings while still keeping such a lightness of touch and sweetness of tone… it’s just mind blowing.
Quelle performance extraordinaire dans l interprétation de Bach bravo mille fois bravo
Beautiful, very clean. Virtuoso guitar!
So beautiful and a natural fit on the guitar. Just wonderful thankyou thankyou!
Wow! I have loved JSBach forever, but this is something extra special. I don’t know whether I fell in love more with the performer, the instrument, or the composition... All three together are irresistible! Thanks so much for uploading and sharing your gift. ❤️😍🎼🎵🎶👏🇮🇪☘️
Sarabande and minuet beautifully played...thanks for this lovely interpretation....just found what I was looking for..

What a brilliant guitarist. I must have listened to this Bach piece a hundred times. Can't fault the guitar playing, just totally amazing.
One of my favourite interpretations on UA-cam. Great phrasing, great sound, great understanging od Bach's music whom I love deeply. Congratulations my friend.
Incredible, tone and separation of voices
Please publish this masterful transcription.
A huge contribution to the classical guitar world.
Bravo!
I would definitely buy the score!
Magnifique!
I am very jealous it doesn't sound so well on my steinway!
Bravissimo for the transcription and for your interpretation as well!!!

why you think that is easy??? You have never played guitar

@@Queenmania2007 People just don't bother to really read comments very well. Nice post:)

Got this one on ‘favourites’, fantastic and no sticky finger sounds like Julian Bream or Segovia
Listening to you makes me so happy about the future of CGuitar!!
This some of the best Bach I've heard in a long time, regardless of the instrument.
superbly played. One of the best Bach interpretations I've ever listened. David Russell level of baroque play. thumbs up
Indeed
This is exquisite, flawless, I was transported. Beautiful technique, dynamic rendering/rubato, and that guitar sounds magical in your hands. Bravo Maestro.
Excellent!!
I first saw you as part of the Sedina Duo. Both of you play guitar so wonderfully! Nice to hear you solo. I wish you all the best! God bless ~ Jerry
Best photography- always precision focus, many viewpoints and steady camera...
My absolute favourite performance! I keep coming back and am always in awe of this incredible performance. Kudos also to the audio and video team. Brilliant!
Simply amazing.
Thank you for these moments of great joy and delight !
Best guitar playing I have heard! Very fluent and musically expressive. Genuine artistry and masterful technique!
While I'm expecting to be hearing more Bach being played by this promising young talent one day, I've been listening to this piece about a thousand times in the last few years. Thank you so much!!

I don't understand the professional detail and so i do this. It sounds amazing. Divine. Tnks.
Naprawde piekna interpretacja w spanailym wykonaniu!
Every time i hear this i am blown away by his sheer musicality and virtuosity. Waiting for the CD.
Great transscription and performance, thank you !
Amazing! Very well-played and good transcription! Bravo!
Wspaniałe wykonanie Błażej doskonałej transkrypcji.
I'm learning the Corente BWV 825. I will only dream of playing it as well as this guy. Absolutely jaw dropping. Stunning player. Such esance 🙏🏻👍
Wonderful arrangement and gorgeous playing! I´m duly impressed.

Thanks a bunch!
Hermosa obra y muy linda interpretación. Felicidades
Genialne.
Wydaje mi się, że to pierwsza transkrypcja partity na gitarę, na którą się natknąłęm.
(Clavier-Übung I)
Simply superb...
Intelligent, masterful playing.
Blessed performance....
dude...if i look away from the video, i swear someone is playing the lute harpsichord just because your counterpoint is so sharp, i gotta look again to make sure its a guitar!
Beautiful! Congratulations
Beautiful interpretation ….Thank you!
Wow masterly!
