Were it not for this man, we would not have Ana Vidovic, Denis azabagic and a plethora of fantastic players that we have now, the technique and the equipment may have improved dramatically (thank god) but to be a true innovator makes you special, you go down in history - forever. i used to listen to this man on a sunday night in the bath (me not him) on a radio show (can't remember the name of the show) and my love of the classical guitar stems from this. This man was a legend. Is, Is a legend.
I love to listen to classic guitar. The way Segovia interpretes, valorizes and put sentiment in the phrases is a thing that I have not seen in any other player, Bream included.
Maestro de maestros, no solo virtuosismo, también talento y pasión. De eso se trata la música, no sólo de tocar una guitarra, si no de trasmitir lo que esa música quiere decirnos.
Y aqui ya tiene una edad algo avanzada. Falleció con 94 años en el sofá de su casa y aquel año todavía daba conciertos. No es nada fácil llegar a los 94 años y con esa edad ser capaz de subirse a un escenario con una guitarra en la mano.
Segovia's playing here in this video is perfect. It is my favourite of all of his videos posted on youtube. Segovia plays each note with so much love. Each has its own sound, carefully assigned by the master, whether it be a vibrato, sull ponticello, a portamento, a glissando, an staccato, a pizzicato,.... placing the right hand in the three different places (near the bridge, beside the sound hole or beside the end of the fingerboard), varying the timbre. I don't hear or see such extreme care of note-playing in any other guitarist of any time. Certainly there are a plenty of guitarists with much more dexterity, such as Williams, for example, but none, none, none gives that attention to each note as Segovia did. He is unique. He has no pair. Barrios was a brilliant composer and performer, but I don't hear the quality of sound that Segovia had. Any one can compare that by listening to the early recordings of both musicians. Barrios plays pretty fast his own compositions. That doesn't convince me. I will always be sorrow that Segovia didn't play Barrios music. It would have been a superb contribution to music of all times, just as he did with Ponce's music. Eventhough he didn't play Barrios music, in my mind, in my imagination, I can hear the master playing it with the lovely care he played every piece on the guitar.

Un documento excepcional para los que amamos la guitarra....... Gracias por compartirlo Carlos.
El sonido de Segovia no lo tiene ni lo ha tenido nunca nadie.Por más que algunos detractores digan lo contrario.Tenía un temperamento fuerte que no era distinto de otras celebridades musicales pero no por eso vamos a restarle mérito a su grandeza.Y nunca he visto un guitarrista más relajado para tocar que él.He visto muchas veces a Carlevaro que según muchos de sus alumnos revolucionó la técnica de la guitarra aún siendo alumno de Segovia y por más que lo escucho no me dice nada su interpretación.Segovia será siempre grande.Y si tienen alguna duda vean el video donde Narciso Yepes da un concierto en homenaje a él y antes de tocar pronuncia unas emotivas palabras hacia el maestro.Saludos de un guitarrista chileno...
Son escuelas y épocas distintas la de Carlevaro y Segovia, no se compara. Uno va mas por perfeccionar la técnica, el otro por lo estilístico. Segovia recurre a la guitarra romántica, la tradicional Española, Carlevaro tiene un enfoque mas contemporáneo.
El Maestro.. Brilliant. I saw that it's 43 minutes so I planned to watch the first few minutes, but I just couldn't stop watching.. watched it all!! thank you for uploading this
¡ Qué lastima que el sonido de la grabación no tenga la calidad que el Maestro Segovia merece!. Ha sido el más grande artista que la guitarra ha tenido .Hay (hoy en dia) multitud de guitarristas tocando con una técnica perfecta pero nada más que oimos a Segovia sabemos que es él. Tiene una personalidad artística y una capacidad de comunicarse con el oyente a través de su sonido y su fraseo que es sencillamente única.
... incrivelmente, única! Estudei violão clássico no Conservatório Brasileiro de música no RJ até o sexto ano. Dei alguns recitais, na época, violão Do Souto. Ouvi e vi muitos violonistas, mas p/ mim, até hoje, Segóvia é o mestre dos mestres ! Um ser e um artista perfeito na sua identidade cm o instrumento, algo, realmente, q está e continua ainda bem acima dos humanos! Um intérprete das notas e acordes da pauta do universo q esteve entre nós! ❤
This takes me back to when I saw Segovia at Chicago Music Hall around 1970. Then, I knew nothing about the classical guitar but I knew I was witnessing a great artist of the guitar. Listen to how he goes beyond technique and makes the guitar sing! Segovia achieved such artistry that it is truly difficult to separate the man from the instrument...They are one! His technique and artistry here is unmatched...State of The Art! Wonderful!
Come on. Every high level professional guitarist makes the guitar “sing” snd goes beyond the technique. I know Andrea Segovia was super good but he was an arrogant guy. Bashed all guitar players and composers before him, and his contemporaries.
Ha tenido varias lagunas(no recordar como seguía ) durante éste concierto y ha corregido sin problemas es un fenómeno el mejor de todos Segovia por siempre.
Remembering all that is just way beyond utterly amazing! Playing was 100% perfect. The audio was a little bit distorted, but it was filmed a long time ago, so what can you except.
I saw him play in Chicago in one of his last concerts just a few months before his death. His playing had a strange, "failing" kind of quality, like a kind of senility. He played all the notes, but they were strangely elongated, as if he were playing under water. But in the middle of each set, he played pieces by Haydn I have never heard him play anywhere else. Unlike the rest of the program, the Haydn pieces were played with complete mastery. Deft, perfect and profound.
....hermoso. Primero la conoci de Emerson, Lake & Palmer, posteriormente de su autor Mussorgsky....que excelente interpretación, Perú tiene que estar orgulloso.
Wow, I want to reafirm my quotation after listening Bach @ 23``. There are many robot-like interpreters that are very proud for themselves about "playing by the rule" they have not reach the level, of "Playing by the soul!"
At 1:57 the theme is an early 17thC Irish march. It was the tune for the anti-Jacobite satirical song 'Lillibullero' - Purcell included it in a compilation published in 1689, the year after the Williamite Glorious Revolution of 1688. The tune is also well-known as the children's lullaby 'Rock a bye baby' and as the signature tune of the BBC World Service.
Estava morreu em 1987 rs, maior violonista do século passado, viveu 94 anos... Mudou a história, a maneira como tocar o violão bem... por causa dele madeiras de violão foram melhoradas; triplas foram substituídas por nylon etc...
Magnificent and inspiring! Makes me wish I had the time and patients to sit down and learn the guitar rather than it sitting in a box in the garage. *sigh*
I agree that these are wonderful recordings in spite of the shortcomings of the old technology used to record Segovia. However JW has certain critiques about Segovia's teaching methods. I think we should read the book before we react to a journalist's taking certain statements out of context. Anyway, I would to defer comment until I had a chance to read the whole book. Thank you for uploading this to YT.
Guitar maestro . Father of classic guitar . High guitar technique. compares to low technique in blue and metal guitar music. Slave and peasant music / guitar technique compare to royal music
I love the way he expresses the music... it seems to me that he tries to emphasize every note so that you get a certain emotion. I also noticed that he prefers to play right below the sound hole which changes the dynamics of his playing, making the pieces seem sharper than if he were to play over or right above the sound hole.
Starlight slumber Thats called rhythmical playing. We tend to see the guitar as an absolutely lyrical instrument. But we forget that the guitat like any other instrument needs percussive touch, which is where the "note enphatizer" comes.
A great player of the past! Personally I preferred the playing of Bream and Diaz and Gonzalez (two of whom were students of Segovia) but there's no denying he was fine musician.
It is a huge shame that the BBC gentleman who directed this failed to grasp the essential need to witness a full left hand performance in a guitar concert.
Fabuloso Carlos Edu!!! Un millón de gracias por compartir este documento invalorable de el verdadero "Rey" de España. La música agradecida también por ser interpretada con tanta belleza! Alguna idea de la fecha de este show en la BBC? Un abrazo desde Argentina.
Segovia sabía bien lo que hacía cuando elegia siempre las mismas piezas a la hora de tocar en videos en los que se presenta la guitarra al público. La primera impresión que las personas necesitan debe ser intensa, lo cual se consigue tocando piezas fáciles de oir con una primera y rápida escucha. Es el ejemplo de la gavotta de Bach o el primer movimiento de la sonatina de Torroba, la cual fue probablemente la pieza que más interpretó.
This needs to be run through a filter and take out that low hum....they have some great audio tools these days, if you have a decent source, this would clean up VERY well. nice vid regardless of all that...
Le maître incontesté de la guitare classique...La différence avec les autres n'est pas dans la technique mais dans la qualité, la densité des notes qui sortent de ses doigts. Cet enregistrement n'en rend pas vraiment compte. Ecoutez plutôt un de ses disques vous comprendrez aisément...Le seul classique qui m'ait scotché à part lui est Roberto Aussel, des notes incroyables sortent de sa guitare, en toute simplicité.
Both great players but neither is a 'scratch' on Julian Bream who knocked back offers to study under Segovia and develop his own style; all credit to Bream!
This sound of the guitar is so weird, but i'm enjoying this music like this actually. There were really big problems to fully record the sound of the guitar, so i really think he altered the sound derivelately with some sound effects from that time. I don't think the recorders were so "bad" as to record the sound of the guitar this way. Segovia had the intention of putting this sound for the guitar, which is a success, as i'm really enjoying this music this way, with this sound. With another sound i would probably enjoy this in a different way or not at all. Anyway, as i always say the guitar is an instrument to be close to you at the moment is being played. Very appropiate to play it for the girl you love. Actually this can also be done imaginarily, which is a big consolation.
After listening to Segovia play it's a nonsense to try to play another instrument. I will play this instrument no matter i play it as it should be played or not. This depends on my intelligence and capacities, which does not depend on my own will. I don't mind, i will play this instrument in the name of Andres Segovia trying to make my own name.
I see a lot of comments about his "sharp tone." I think it is being over looked that the quality of this recording "sharpens" his tone. Modern players benefit from excellent mics, knowledge of proper mic placement(which was learned from decades of pioneers artists lending themselves to experimentation: note the mic placement of Segovia's "the Song of the Guitar" video and realize many modern artists have copied that and that Segovia did not benefit from it until he was 84 years old) not to mention modern pre-amps, all of which work together to create a recording that is a closer representation of the "original," actual, sound quality. And, Segovia was still using gut strings at this time, which also have a different sound quality when pushed than the nylons of today. He was past his peak in the "The Song of the Guitar" video but that video provides the closest representation of his actual tone; ignore his playing(which is still better than most at 84!) and listen to his amazing tone there. Otherwise, find a crappy mic and a 40s soundboard and cut a recording of Manuel Barrueco or Ana Vidovic with that equipment and see if they fare any better. And I don't care about who has better technique (and all three names are probably better than anyone who takes time to comment here anyway so that is a mute point to discuss) I am only referring to the tone quality produced on the recording itself.
I agree 100%. I'm also aware of the sound that he produced in "The Song of the Guitar", which is absolutely beautiful. But you should know that he is playing his Ramirez in that video, which had a warmer tone. Segovia's tone was mutant, there are so many recordings of his playing and you never listen the same sound quality, tone twice. He had three guitars after all...but i dont think it has everything to do with his guitars, but also with his touch. Microphone placement is VERY important if you are going to record the guitar, as well as the place and the acoustics of that place. Most of the problems come when you put the microphone too close to your guitar because as a result the machine will only catch the pluck sound of the strings and not so much all the overtones which are being produced and are involved in the final result of the real tone.
He is also playing his Ramirez in this video. It's not all that clear in this video but you can see it pretty well around 10:20 when the guitar head is more or less visible.
the legend, his name is Segovia. No one plays the sweet tone.
That makes me happy!
Segovia tone will be still forever.

Were it not for this man, we would not have Ana Vidovic, Denis azabagic and a plethora of fantastic players that we have now, the technique and the equipment may have improved dramatically (thank god) but to be a true innovator makes you special, you go down in history - forever.
