This deserves so much more attention. Well done sir.
As a great lover of Bach's music and this Chaconne, I congratulate you for this inspired performance. Maybe some purists out there will hate this, but I am so grateful that you have such deep respect for this monumental masterpiece. I am not ashamed to say that I actually started to get misty in some spots. Can't say enought about it. It's that good. THANK YOU :)
Dude that shift to major, gets me misty and tingly every time, no matter what version
I'm a "historicist" and I always like hearing a piece the way it would have probably been performed on its time. But man, I love this version! Gives me chills. The piece is awesome no matter how you perform it.
This is VERY good. I can't understand why people only say "very nice" or "cool" to this.
Most classical renditions on electric guitar use heavy metal as base. I like metal, but the electric guitar is a very eclectic instrument for such limitations. The sounds you chose fit perfectly and the biggest part when doing such adaptations is choosing the timbre and effects for that piece.
Congrats, man
I have always been listening to Bach and trying to focus and concentrate in the paths the various voices take. And this guy's voices are crystal clear. Love it or hate it, one thing is certain and it has been told a million times: Bach' music transends time. Even if you are a classical-purist you have to realise that there are so many reasons for someone to attempt to transcribe this solo violin piece for an electric guitar leading a pychedelic rock band, a mandolin, for eight saxophones, for an orchestra or for whatever instument you can play. It would be a shame and a crime for music if only the violin could cherish the beauty of playing the Chaconne.
Amen!
Why so much hate? This is incredible. He's not aiming to completely recreate the original. If that's what you expected, go somewhere else.
I came here expecting to hate it. I don't hate it, because Bach pretty much always sounds great, and it's a fresh take on his music, and a nice break from everyone trying to sound historically informed. Good job!
Bach would love it.
Fantastic🤘It must have taken hundreds of hours to put that backing together, nevermind the skills to play it too - a labour of love. Bravo!! ✨
I love what you've done to the last section (9:35) makes it even more psychedelic than it's been.
Bro this is fantastic. The choice of timbre with the different axes is a really great touch, and the technical execution is clean and tasteful. Incredible how well this works. My favorite thing about it is the even pulse of the rhythm section’s groove, which I think really “sells” the sense of it being an inexorable and relentless series of meditative variations. You don’t get that with the inevitable rubato of even the most down-the-middle professional interpretations. Just so, so great. Definitely my favorite transcription, by far.
Thanks! :)
This should be in the next Tarantino film. Bravo.
I don't do drugs. . . . But this makes me want to. Amazing rendition!
Bach is a psychedelic.
How fresh! I've listened to this piece played on about everything. In my opinion this chaconne is the most beautiful piece of music every written. There's a lesson in your approach about how to bring tradition into the 21st century, not just "classical" music, but classical philosophy, religion, etc. You maintain the heart of the piece while making it audible to folks who would never listen to Segovia or Parkening or Bream perform it. I love the use of the various Fenders (and one Les Paul) and associated effects. You are certainly an artist. By the way, I discovered your performance after listening on UA-cam to Chris Thiele's perform this chaconne on the Mandolin -- another wonderful approach.
God this rendition is so good. Hope to see more of these pieces!
I really like the interesting use of pedals and other techniques that bring out the uniqueness of this arrangement. It reminds me of how Busoni really modified the music greatly in his arrangement. In addition, the Chaconne is a dance, so the steady and quick tempo is not out of place.
the fact that it is played to a straight beat changes the character of the original completely
That's kinda the point though here
The guitar version is very good, I congratulate the interpreter. I would like this wonderful work to be on Spotify.
Well, as a friend of mine once said: Bach's music can withstand anything.
This recording makes me at once relaxed and mortally terrified.
Bach is genius,and so is this arrangement 👍🏼awesome
That moment from 2:54-3:27 is mind blowing! Seriously, the way you blend baroque and psych rock is creative and refreshing. Congratulations on this rendition 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
6:00 if this isn't played at my funeral I'm not dying
It's the Bach's acceptance of his wife's death.
Yeah I learned something really cool about how his description of the Chaconne: “Sei Soli” means both “6 solos” and “you are alone”
So sad but so beautiful
perfect theme for a sean connery era james bond villain. Mix of 60's/70's spirit with bach's distinctive mathematical elegance ! It's very flamboyant and well executed. Congratulations.
A wonderful interpretation. IMHO one of the best. Because it corresponds to Bach's worldview.
He was a Protestant, not a Catholic! This is obvious if we consider his works of the same period.
Most performers try to convey the abyss of despair without noticing hope and light ...
...and you did very well
thanks.
What a wonderful idea to mix these two ! And perfectly played as well. Bach and Leslie cabs go so well together. This is an instant favorite.
This proves that any instrument can be used in Classical Music. Well done!
I couldn't imagine the feelings of Bach when he listen to this.
At last! A Chaconne that sounds like the Spanish dance that it is. Playing so expressively at such a strict tempo is very difficult.
Thank you
Shows the amazing versatility of Bach that so many musicians of so many different styles have done so many settings of that chaconne contrary to some of those stick in the mud purists
You deserve MORE views, Sir! Thanks for this beautiful performance. Bach feels right at home on the electric guitar!
Great job! Doing the amazing rock vibrato of the 50s with Bach. Love it.
Have been listening to this for many years now. When I think of the Chaconne these days, there's a 50% chance it's this rendition.
You have poor taste.
Dude knows the piece, and well. The accompaniment and all the different guitar setups is super well thought out and creative.
Lol it's in my Pink Floyd playlist. It's a miracle
So much haters, people that can even play four bars of this piece. Man you rock! Keep working. Love the 998 too. You have very sensitive ears.
Molto bello e ben suonato! Sembra un brano scritto negli anni '70 e non di qualche secolo fa.. Complimenti per il tuo lavoro!!
Magnifique arrangement d'une des plus grandes compositions de l'histoire de la musique. Nailed it!
Absolutely beautiful
Marci! Kérünk mééég ilyet!!! Csodás, ízléses továbbgondolás ez is.
Amazing performance!!! 👍🏻❤️🤘
Beautifully played
Wow, what a rare gem of an arrangement 👌
I really enjoyed this. Congratulations and thank you.
What a beautiful vision of this fantastic piece of music!
26K views? Should be 26 M!
👏👏👏fantastic interpretation 👏👏👏
BRAVO. You, sir, are a genius and no mistake. Bach would be proud. BRAVO.
certified genius move
The Nitro really captured the essence of it for me. Nice job.
S-tier
This is fantastic, thanks for uploading.
Wow! It works really well, eye opening, thanks for sharing.
Your interpretation is a masterpiece! Very inspired and inspiring.
muy muy bueno viejo, hermoso viaje!
2:28 is my favorite part
О, это прекраснейшее исполнение Чаконны на электронной гитаре. Рок музыка в своих лучших гармоничных формах имеет истоки в бессмертных творениях великого Иоганна Баха. Браво!!!
A nice mellow interpretation. Your technique looks very relaxed. Fun registrations!
Wow, this is a banger!
This was surprisingly good
OMG this is unbelievably cool 😎
Beautiful guitars. And really good rendition of a truly deeply affecting piece.
I'd lose the backing track and just have that beautiful twang and reverb. But a unique and excellent job , nice one.
Really beautiful change of perspective you gave me there! :D thanks a lot
Excelent ! congratulations Sir, to provide us with a such experience from Bach!
I run a radio program called Blue note from the blue boat. It's a jazz show but we define jazz very broad. I would love to play this in my show. Can you give me more information (real name for instance?) It's great how you redefine this masterwork
Hi Bert! Can I PM you? You find my email in my account details (under "about").
beautiful interpretation - thanks4sharing!
Well done. Loved it!
My opinion: It was pretty good. I think I'd have preferred a more straight ahead rendition, but I've also heard this piece dozens if not hundreds of times on many instruments, so it's nice to hear something new and different.
Is this by chance available on Spotify?
What a joy! thank you
nice way to arrange this! thx for sharing
Fantastic job, bravo!
Merveilleux !
Nice Performance !
Very cool. Respectful of the music, nor do you attempt to ham it up or burlesque it. And renders unto electric guitars that which is in their purview. I also dig how you used the bass and drums in an understated chamber music manner, not all that different from how John Lewis and the Modern Jazz Quartet might have approached it.
I like your funny words magic man
Yes Shadows (their sounds) meets Bach like this very many.
Very interesting, it makes wonder how it would sound played live with more instruments (synths, another guitar etc) and with better drum arrangement, the result could be amazing.
To quote Jeff Goldblum, “You Did It. The Crazy Son of a Bitch, You Did It!”
It is one very nice interpretation.
Super unique take, I love it though!
Muito bom....parabens 😉👍👏👏👏👏👏
Excellent. Très bon jeu. Et bon choix du style.
The drum groove is cool, I'd love to hear it on real drums. The guitar tones on this are awesome.
Really nice cover man!
damn those 32nd note runs sound much better with a straight beat
Is this Segovia version?
Один вопрос. Зачем здесь барабаны? Хоть кто-нибудь ответит на вопрос, какую смысловую нагрузку они несут?
Great !!!! .... very imaginative ! Congrats .... 👍
Awesome!
Very cool from Japan
замечательно!!!!!!!
TOO GOOD
its so good
I love your experimentation very much in this video. If possible it would be really cool to see you explore the psychedelic rock genre more with some other covers. Please sir if you can? Anyway, love where your going with this. Thank you for sharing.
This is very good but hearing Perlman on his Strad is astounding.
Nice Fenderization of Bach!
Love it! Bravo :)
Awesome! Great arrangement!
Cool!
This is great!
Great!!
