“Rhapsody in Blue” has long been one of my favorite compositions. I could never have imagined how incredible it could sound on guitars. Hats of to this talented duo.
I’ve listened to some solos of this song on guitar. But this duet truly did the song justice because all the lines that need to be sustained COULD BE AND WERE SUSTAINED. 🙌 Bravo! Well done!
I only wish he had not worn cuff links, right hand one clinked a few times. I can’t think of anything more challenging than arranging this a then flawlessly playing it. Rhapsody in Blue is one of those iconic pieces that just envelopes the listener. 👏👏👏
Fabulous job! As a pianist, I was really impressed with how you captured some of the very pianistic passages, yet made them seem very at home on guitar. Brilliant!
Went searching for Rhapsody in Blue played on guitar. Listened to several halfway thru, then this collasal transcription played out in front of me with such molecular energy and between two beautiful humans by the end I was crashing into every note. What an engrossing performance.
Anytime I see somebody playing through this piece by memory I'm just astonished. What a piece of music. What a terrific job these two guitarists have done. Bravo.
Simply gorgeous. What a versatile pair of guitarists. I'd forgotten how this melody went. I soon recalled after the first ten seconds. Gershwin just never gets old - period!
Amazing !! I'm speechless !! What a good performance !! What an arrangement and that coordination between them they're magnificents. I want more music from them !!
Got chills multiple times throughout. That was incredible. And the arrangement is incredible as well... captured the essence of the piano and orchestra very well.
You two literally have me in tears. Beautiful! I found this video reminiscing about my HS band years. 5:15 to 5:45 was part of my alto sax audition for all state and it's been one of my favorite pieces since. I wouldn't have thought there would so many guitar covers of it. I'm only a self taught guitarist (a lot of help and progress has come from random UA-camrs in recent years) I'm off to try and find a solo tutorial for this!
i can say without exaggeration that this particular song is my most favorite. i thank you very much for this wonderful and exquisite rendition of this on guitar.
I was able to have a lesson with Ewa at GFA. She had some great insights and was very helpful during our lesson together. Her and her husband are amazing guitarists! It was so fun to hear their transcription of this piece live!
Simply outstanding. I did a search to see if there was a guitar arrangement for Chopin's waltz in C# minor and of course this duo had one which was also brilliant. I will be checking out other pieces by this very talented duo. Bravo.
Absolutely and utterly brilliant - both the transcription and the execution of this American standard by these two great Polish players. They even had their own version of the cadenza which suited both the piece and the instruments perfectly. Added to my favourites.
C'est superbe de transcrire cette œuvre orchestrale jazzy de façon si éclatante avec uniquement deux guitares classiques. C'est prodigieux Quelle virtuosité .c'est un régal .
Genios, me encanto su Interpretación, el arreglo es Maravilloso,. prácticamente no tiene nada que envidiarle a la versión original... Como Dijo Berlioz "La Guitarra es una pequeña Orquesta" y la verdad viéndolos a ustedes es así !!!. Saludos de Argentina
Stars, stars.....how can give them 5 stars? What a team! I can envision them putting the guitars down after this and doing an awesome Tango together!!!
Outstanding.....this is such a great find! I imagine you two in an airport calming nerves and bringing smiles to weary travels......(maybe the United airlines safety video is in my head). You two are outstanding. That is the only word for it...........I love all things Gershwin
This sounds amazing. An absolutely gorgeous rendition of a song that i have loved since i was a kid, played on my favorite instrument to play. Thank you for this!
Absolutamente perfeito. Esta interpretação comprova a riqueza polifônica da guitarra. Gershwin ao estrear sua eterna Rhapsody in Blue junto com a orquestra de Paul Whitemann, mostrou ao público uma nova proposta harmônica que exigia uma eximia técnica do pianista. O duo Kupinski prestou esse tributo a George Gershwin com todos os ingredientes que este grande compositor usou em sua obra. Bravíssimo !!!!

Just two instruments, but I can hear the entire orchestra. They are brilliant. Thank you for posting this.

I have spent 50 years listening to Classical Guitar. This is the greatest performance in history.
I never thought I'd agree with such a statement, but they certainly have a shot at it with this. My jaw is on the floor.
I have spent 63 years playing and listening, and I agree!

Words will not describe this - if you love music, you can't help but be spellbound by this performance!
This is so beautiful, makes me wanna get down on my knees and thank the universe
It's hard to stay mad when there's so much beauty- Lester Burnham in American Beauty
What transcendent virtuosity. George would be utterly gob-smacked to hear this were he alive today. And the piece is nearly a hundred years old.
Out of this world!!!!! Magnifico!
Ewa's little head shake when she plays the blue note at 4:22 is precious...
I cannot comprehend that amount of genius ! Thank you both.
This took away my breath!--------------I would love to hear your arrangement of "An American in Paris".
Love and peace from New York City.
Anytime I see somebody playing through this piece by memory I'm just astonished. What a piece of music. What a terrific job these two guitarists have done. Bravo.
This is the most brilliant thing I’ve ever heard
Gershwin never sounded so good! What a fascinating and beautiful guitar transcription of this work. Thank you for making this available.
Simply gorgeous. What a versatile pair of guitarists. I'd forgotten how this melody went. I soon recalled after the first ten seconds. Gershwin just never gets old - period!
Yes, Gershwin never gets old. Many of my musical memories are stored in Gershwin to be revisited and enjoyed time and time again.
I'm speachless. How have I not seen this before. Fantastic!
Stunning!...an orchestra in two guitars...Gershwin’s iconic music adapts perfectly to your guitars, passion and skills. Thank you.
I just saw them live. Absolutely astounding!
Absolutely wonderful
The interplay of this arrangement is wonderful to behold
Great interpretation with 2 guitars.
So impressive.
Thank you all
It´s the best performance I have ever heard.George Gershwin would be proud of such a terrific arrangement.
Amazing !! I'm speechless !! What a good performance !! What an arrangement and that coordination between them they're magnificents. I want more music from them !!
Wonderful !!! I just can not imagine the effort involved in transcription of this masterpiece? Well done!

Perfection. 2 maestros of the instrument.
An incredible accomplishment! I am in your debt for sharing such beauty and musical perfection with me!
Got chills multiple times throughout. That was incredible. And the arrangement is incredible as well... captured the essence of the piano and orchestra very well.
Masterful, wonderful, brilliant talent. I love how both artist share the passages, fantastic musical expression.
So grateful these are young artists who will give us wonderful music for years to come.
The sheer scale and majesty of this arrangement is truly breathtaking.
If that doesn't give you chills, you're not breathin'
A virtuosic performance of a great composition arranged beautifully for guitars, perfect to my ears. I love it.
You two literally have me in tears. Beautiful!

Mesmerising ! I haven’t heard such precision and musicality since the Presti Lagoya famous duo
Amazing piece of music, performed flawlessly. Thank you1
Bravo, thanx for sharing this.
God, the timbre of Ewa's guitar sounds so much like a harp. That's the timbre I'm always trying to extract from my guitar. Wonderful!
They play guitars built by Phillip Woodfield who's out of London!
Austin Keller he's got some great guitars

Vibrant performance!!!
That is absolutely perfect music!

Wolfgang

Hard to believe that two guitars can seemingly reproduce the full orchestral piece. An absolutely incredible arrangement and performance!
