    I've worked with Ana Vidovic. I started in classical coughing after switching from cello aged 13. I've been coughing professionally now for over 30 years and have worked with some of the worlds finest audiences and on many famous recordings. In this particular work the challenge, as always, is to cough between the beats when least expected and to work with the sound engineers to choose the best part of the auditorium to achieve the correct reverberation for the genre. Believe it or not we did this in one take. Ana is great to work with, she actually prefers the Cadenza coughing fit over her work and very much leaves it up to me as the artist.

      Yes, I'm a bit of a pro myself, but my speciality is more baritone, you know, downstairs.
      I had to give up playing piano accordion because of a medical issue, the problem being that people within ear shot of my playing kept attacking me, my new instrument is more organic, and indeed can at times, take the breath away.

      I mastered coughing in my late 20's and moved on to bigger things. I've been working on causing others to cough, and with the right combination of baked beans and sprouts I can have the whole auditorium choking with just one massive fart!

    Hands down the best version of Asturias out there.
    No galloping, string attack is smooth and then aggressive at just the right moments, and her volume control over the tremolo is perfect.
    I’ve listened to this dozens of times and it still holds up. Well done Ana!

Ana's rendition brings an ebb and flow of dynamic build and release that creates tension, anticipation and emotion. She brings us on a journey that transports and elevates the listener to a place beyond. This is what music is meant to do for the soul.👋

    We Spaniards have a special bond with the guitar, it is an essential instrument in our culture. And we are lucky that many people here know how to play it. We are paralyzed when we hear someone playing it well, anywhere, in any situation, it electrifies our skin. It's our kryptonite. And this piece by maestro Albéniz in particular makes me breathe so slowly..., because I'm afraid to interfere with each note. I close my eyes and listen to a mountain stream, with clear waters, jumping from rock to rock. And I love how this Ana Vidovic interprets it.

You can hear each individual note so clearly and distinctly when she plays vibrato, and the timing is so perfectly even as well. By far though the most STUNNING part of this performance is her excellent use of dynamics. Absolutely pristine.

    I was born in Portugal (west of Spain) in 1984. To be honest, I never cared much about the guitar as an instrument, but of course it's hugely popular here and everywhere between the classical and modern elements. Don't quite remember how I got to this video, but this performance just captured my soul: it brought to life all the feelings that haven always been there growing up in Portugal and Iberia - the tunes, the history, the cultural connection, the connection to the arabic world from like 800+ years ago when arabic peoples invaded and left a lot of their culture. All together, it just feel it enriches so much my life just hearing a perfect rendition of this, which stirs my soul.
    I wish everyone experienced this - we wouldn't have fighting or terrorism.

      I m Syrian, I learned the guitar when I was 12 and Asturians was one of the first pieces I fell in love with. I have always been a big fan of the guitar, and Spanish music, and later on Spain when I visited. I also heard lots of amazing things about Portugal from my friends who visited it, especially Portuguese tarts and the fish.
      I felt at home when I was in Spain, I connected to it much more than the UK who I've been living in for 3 years now. The culture, the history, the architecture, the food, the people, the lifestyles. I can all connect with cz of how similar it is to my culture and background. What made me even more connected is when I did an ancestry DNA test and found that I have a substantial percentage of Iberian in me. The Levant particularly and Iberia have been connected since the Phoenicians 4000 years ago, even before the MENA invasion of Iberia. Love to all Iberians everywhere!!

      If looks could kill…
      But all that is gone now. I really don’t hear any of those coughs now. The state Ana puts me in with her music just has no room for distractions.

    That's just gorgeous music making. I love those in the older style, like Pepe Romero, but she actually phrases for the music, not the guitar effects. If you listen to Romero playing this piece (as "Leyenda"), He stops for each full chord strum, stopping the forward momentum of the melody. She phrases classically, with rubato, but more like a more contemporary opera singer. That's not relative ability, that's style. I love her style. It's about the music, not about the instrument, not about showing off.

      Truth! I was at a piano performance for a radio recording (pre cellphone). The audience was told to be VERY quiet. An old lady got out a candy. She tried to unwrap the candy slowly... crinkle, CRinkle, crINKle, crinKLE, CRINK. About as subtle as a barking dog.
      After the performance the pianist gave the if-looks-could-kill glare at the aulde bitch.

    I have huge respect for Segovia, Williams and Bream, really huge. But for me this is the most impresive all-around version of Asutiras I ever heard (so far).
    The level of Expression, Dynamics and technique is amazing. She have probably practiced this soo much that she looks concentrated and relaxed at the same time.
    Another one that played this piece really, really well is Pino Feola and Maestro Pepe Romero.

      I do not get it how her tremolo is heard even when she lifts her hand away from the guitar. Amazing and love her dinamics, the sound of her guitar and how she emphasizes the piece itself playing it clearly and flowingly...but that is just my humble opinion.

    • @pepitoperez1638
      @pepitoperez1638 5 років тому

      @@natasamladenovic1765 That is a very valid and correct opinion. It gives soul to the pieces it touches, others play very fast, with precision but mechanically, like a robot, they lack soul, and Ana Vidovic prints that precisely, soul, in its tremolos, lowering the volume and speed when it is due, giving soul and life to everything he interprets... That is the denomination of MASTER, and Ana is.

    Enjoyed this rendition. Probably my favorite of all guitarists. I like the speed and the positioning of the notes. Some play on the first position whereas she plays the bass notes which is the way I'm learning it and glad to use her performance to learn from. Finally got all the notes down after one month of playing. But now the perfection of it all continues.
