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.
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.
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.
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.
¡ 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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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!"
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.
....hermoso. Primero la conoci de Emerson, Lake & Palmer, posteriormente de su autor Mussorgsky....que excelente interpretación, Perú tiene que estar orgulloso.
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.
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*
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...
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 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...
the legend, his name is Segovia. No one plays the sweet tone.
That makes me happy!
Segovia tone will be still forever.
セゴビアの音色は凄すぎ❗️
can't give this enough likes, forty-five minutes of flawless guitar
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.

Truly at the height of his playing here, both technically and musically...extraordinary!! Thank you for the post.
I have loved the music of Segovia ever since I first heard him play on a recording in the early 60's.
季節を奏でているかのような
暖かさがある。
ほんと素晴らしいよな。
Utterly beautiful.
this is more relevant now, than ever before

Máximo respeito, mas pra mim o maior violonista da história foi Dilermando Reis, depois Segóvia e em terceiro Paco de Lucia.

Wonderful! Has a slight flanger effect, probably because of the old recording. Really nice touch.
Not for what, disclose Segovia is an honor beyond measure.
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
O que dizer das interpretações desses monstros da música clássica, erudita e popular?!
Só que gostaria de tocar como eles!
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.
