I love how vampires pretend they're learning these tunes for the first time in 2021 when actually they were there when it was composed.
Literally, if only people knew the complexities of classical music and how simple and effortless you make it seem. You’re a living legend my man 🙏
the difference between a performer and a showman: the performer makes a hard piece look easy. a showman makes an easy piece look hard. a stagemaster makes a hard piece look both impossible and effortless at the same time. the performer is the most boring of the three to watch for an audience, a showman pumps you up and motivates you to keep going, a stagemaster humbles you and makes you learn. the trick is to become good enough to be all three as you choose when on stage.
after 15 years spent on stage, i enjoy being a showman the best, it's fun and i get to goof off. in private, i'm a performer, to get so good that the hardest thing i play becomes muscle memory. maybe in 30 years i'll finally get the knack and be all three

Awesome! I love that people are keeping this history alive
Starting my journey on classical guitar after years of rock inspired by you, gentle vampire man! Good video as always
You're going to have a great time! Best of luck and reach out anytime if you need advice.

Why is he a vampire again...
@@himate7572 Because he doesn't age.
@@himate7572 And he's beautiful!!!! lol
I think it's only fair to warn you that there is no going back.
Source: Haven't touched my Martin nor my LP in probably a year.
3:47 Brandon remembering what it was like meeting de Visee for the first time in 1696.
Yeah, I met him once. Kept picking his nose 🤢
I love this, because, it's in own way is a form of time travel.
My wish came true! Listening to you playing one whole long piece! Thank you Brandon, bravo 👏🏽👏🏽
Hey Brandon… I have played steel stringed fiddles all my life. But know that I’ve touched classical guitars everything has changed.
The nuance and subtlety is remarkable and the pay back in effort is beautiful. Thanks for your channel. Please keep doing these videos. You are my favorite classical guitar poster. You not only play beautifully (with a lot of heart felt practice I‘m sure)… But your teaching is priceless. Thank you again.
The whole suite!?! An amazing start to the day, I love the sound of gut strings, so soothing.
It’s awesome how you connect with the music, I can see it in your eyebrows!
🙂My sentiments exactly.
Thank you so much for this!
20 years ago, I was a music major in college and my performance class was classical guitar. I hurt my hand and stopped playing guitar for over a decade, and somewhat recently picked it back up. Instinctively I started playing one of my favorite pieces from my time in college, but I had lost the muscle memory and it all fell apart. Worst was that I couldn't for the life of me remember the composer or the name of the piece.
Few days back I watched another video of you performing de Visee, and I knew that was the name, but I couldn't find the piece.
It was the Bouree from this suite. I can't tell you how excited I was to hear those opening notes, immediately recognizing it.
Now to get to work re-learning how to play it!
What happened to your hand?
🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘🤘
@@FootballEric926 Hey sorry I missed this question. I hurt it playing ice hockey. Took a shot to the back of my hand and suffered minor nerve damage as a result. Fingers just couldn't keep up anymore.
I listened to you every morning of my senior year before covid hit. Now i'm a year into classical guitar. Cheers man
I remember the name of Robert de Visée fom my guitar lessons in the late 1970s. Really beautiful this!
This deserves way more views.. holy crap
My name is Amen and I am 17 .I really am moved of the way you play music Brandon! You are my inspiration to play classical guitar eventhough that I am beginner I am ameliorateing my skills by the help of your youtube channel. since I have started to follow your channel I turned zealous about baroque classical guitar music which encouraged me to from acoustic to classical. Thanks for posting these enthralling pieces Brandon
That is wonderful to hear, Amen! I wish you the best with your journey into the classical guitar. It is well worth the effort :)
-Brandon
@@brandonacker thank you sir!
Just wow.... dare I say that you are my favorite guitarist???
Seriously, when I listen to your guitar work, all I can imagine is being seated in the finest tavern in the village, eating flame grilled mutton and demanding mug after mug of ale. Across the room is the tavern bard, standing next to a warm fireplace, playing this exact song as the townsfolk are enjoying their food and drink.
You're awesome, dude.
This is the most compelling baroque guitar recording of this I've heard and life being put into the piece I haven't heard before! Fantastic recording, like, wow. I'm a huge critic and I'm just in love with this.
The bouree in this suite is one of my favorite pieces of music ever.
Brandon may have the best job in the world
That is a beautiful interpretation. Very authentic performance. It's amazing to see how much range can be achieved with 5 courses. I also noticed what appear to be two tastini/fretlets.
This is simply beautiful. Lost for words. Thankyou
Thank you Brandon. I was at work today during a normal stressful day and put my feet up and listened to this.
Back in the Stone Age when I studied Classical Guitar, this was one of my favorite pieces. Hearing it on a period instrument gives me an even greater appreciation for it. Thanks for sharing this beautiful music with us.
Allemande movement is rocking!💥
I like how bright this guitar is
It's so relaxing listening to this vampire man 🤌💖
My guitar teacher shows us all of your videos so now I love your videos lol
The perfect cover to listen to while relaxing
Awesome video! In an hour I'm heading to guitar center for my first classical Guitar!
Good luck! I have a video on choosing a guitar you might checkout for some tips.
@@brandonacker And maybe a set of good strings!
@@brandonacker Thank you! Already watched them. :)
Makes me try and imagine a day in the late 1600s. A nice day maybe
I've always played rock music and I'm learning classical partially thanks to your channel. Got myself a baroque songbook and am working through them slowly. The toughest bit for me is practicing sight reading- something rock guitarists aren't especially known for excelling at!
I was also a rock guitarist and fell in love with classical guitar and then Baroque music. Welcome to my channel! I think it's really important you get fluent at reading music. Try 10 minutes a day of sight reading.
What an amazing piece Sir. Thank you for projecting your kind hearted talent to the world. Many of us need to appreciate all your kindness in sharing this piece to the world. Thank you Sir
I love these so much, thank you!
Beautiful. I am fascinated by your fingertip journey. I love the mellow sound.
I bet that the transcriptions of D. Scarlatti's harpsichord sonatas would sound right at home on that instrument.
Very beautiful, Brandon. Thank you for your precision and dedication to the craft. UA-cam, guitar, and music are better for this upload. Thanks.
This sounds so Amazing!!! I should just listen to this all day while I do my Art!!! Thank you for posting!!!
Such a beautiful instrument! I'm green with envy over how effortlessly you make those strings sing.
Lovely playing! That guitar has such a wonderful and intimate sound.
Really gorgeous Brandon. Thank you🙌🙌
Oh, how I love this D minor suite by Visée ❤️🌹
I am playing this and I Love it. Thank you for the beautiful Performance.
You're a remarkable guitarist and teacher. I'll keep practising!
That is gorgeous! You are such an inspiration, Brandon! I've learned to go with the flow... with nails or without! Also, I've recently been so engrossed with early music for lute and guitar... I even went so far as ordering a German lute, which thrills me to pieces! Thank you, Brandon, for rekindling a spark!
This was so great, really love the rare and exotic guitar and lute relatives
Just wonderful!!♥️
Absolutely beautiful Thank you for this!
I absolutely love the clarity and vibrancy of a ukulele.
Its a baroque guitar
Brandon I would love to hear some original compositions from you!
I also.
Perhaps there are some from his electric guitar days?
Sweet! Very well played!
//Tobias
Absolutely magnificent
Beautiful playing!
i can feel every each tone that is awesome. i am start learning classical guitar inspired by you
Well played, Brandon! Your efforts to produce historically authentic performances are commendable 👏. Hope we can hear gut strings on that baroque guitar sometime too!
Thanks for the nice comment, Josh! I appreciate it.
Also, the strings are all gut except for two. They were all gut but unfortunately two were false and unusable.
Perfect!
Brandon I love your videos
Music for thinking to😁👍 Thank you for this 🙏 it was just what I needed just now 😊 love from over the hedge and sitting in the Lane 👋
Bravo maestro
Amazing!
" Very Special Sounds on Baroque Guitar and Great Composer R. V. ". .. So' Good ... ☺😊😀/💙💙💙/👍👌👏👋
Awesome!
This suite is beautifully formed. And the little guitar has a lovely sound. Perhaps someone with short thin fingers could become a competent player? Delusions spring eternal...
hard to imagine they actually did this many trills and flourishes especially on the main melody points
Luckily we don't have to imagine. We know. Most of the ornaments I'm doing are explicitly notated in the manuscript. In the beginning of his book he teaches us what the symbols mean.
Perhaps you are used to modern anachronistic recordings by guitarists like Segovia. He didn't understand the notation or style and left out all the good stuff that makes it sound baroque.
When you read the sources from the time, it is clear they ornamented all the time and often on every bar. What is written is just short hand. They assumed anyone playing with good taste would heavily ornament the music. It's more like jazz than classical music :) that's why I love it.
Mesmerizing...
And thus my F. Noad Baroque book is un broken. Trop difficile!
Nice love it already in been 10 sec since u posted it 😑
Hey Brandon! Excellent job and I love your work. I purchased a nice Cordoba a few months back and I'm looking for some good beginner classical guitar songs to try to learn!
Cool!
He is fortunate that to have such big hands.
I come here regularly for the beautiful music but also as inspiration since I've recently picked up the guitar again after many years of not playing. One thing I notice here which troubles me is all those tremolos with the little finger / pinky. The middle joint of my little finger has always had a tendency to lock, (at least since childhood when my big brother accidentally slammed a car door on it). This is a disability which is totally irrelevant for every other activity except when it comes to playing tremolos with it.... Just thought I'd share that...
Thanks for this. Did you mention in another video that this guitar uses re-entrant tuning.
You're welcome. Yes, in my "introducing the baroque guitar" video
Nice live it
Is that 9 strings in 5 courses? This was awesome as usual ❤️
This suite, played by you at the St. James Chapel, was originally what got me into de Visée, Brandon. This studio version is magnificent! By the way, just out of curiosity, is it easier to play bars on baroque guitar?
♥♥♥
Beautiful played as always 🥰 Is there any way to get the full manuscript from this suite? Im searching for those 2 Menuets for a long time but the new tabulatur arround is not complete
Great playing. Would you ever consider playing and uploading Marionas by Gaspar Sanz? It’s a wonderful piece for baroque guitar and is one of Sanz’s most developed pieces.
I adore that allemande
🙏❤️
@Brandon Acker You need to talk to Jeremy Soule for certain if you haven't already!
Could you please do a little tutorial on the topic "How to read that sheet 0:01" it would be really cool to be honest. 👉👈
Lovely playing. Curious about the missing peg. Are you running a single high string, rather than a course, due to the amount of trills/appoggiatura in this work?
Thanks! It's a commonly accepted fact that guitarists and lutenists in the baroque period kept the first string single.
@@brandonacker Thanks for the reply. Any scholarly indication as to why this was the practice? I have some hunches, but they're just that: My first guess would be that it's easier to play ornaments cleanly on a single string. My second guess is that the thinner gut strings were difficult to keep in perfect unison, which could be very problematic, given that the high strings typically carry most melodic lines.
Sounds nice. Just for a random idea, would it be possible to do an "Introducing: The _______ Bagpipes" video collab with a bagpipe player? There are many types and some might be considered classical depending on the country of origin or culture.
👍
Love your videos, you’ve really got me into this type of music. But I have a question. What’s the most affordable price I could hope for a cheaper/lower range but not bad baroque guitar. I only see them available for north of £1,000. Any ideas on where else I could proceed with my search? Maybe any sites where i could find one second hand? Or any other options. Cheers , keep it up
Check out his vídeo about the lute, he said there is a brand making lutes at good prices so it may make baroque guitars as well
@@lezael4126 they were wayyyy out of my price range
F :(
@@lezael4126 suppose would be an idea to look into renting one and if I like it enough, save up for a few months and make big boy purchase
Why’s everyone saying his guitar is broke? It sounded really beautiful to me...
👏🙏🌹👏
🥰
Very nice! Nerdy question: why is there a tuning peg missing? Is that because the chanterelle is only single course whereas the others are double course?
Correct!
Thanks @@brandonacker! Love the channel.
Question: is there supposed to be a tuning peg in the empty hole on the headstock?
This music is quite complex.
The headstock is missing a tuning peg. Is there a missing string or is this something unique to the instrument?
The highest string (chantarelle) is usually a single string on these instruments. The rest are doubles (courses) - so even though this is technically a 10 string guitar, there are usually only 9.
Why 10 peg holes for 9 strings? For symmetry's sake? Or is the highest string sometimes doubled?
The highest string is not doubled. That is historical. They called the first string the chanterelle(singing string) and often kept it single.
I think the replica includes 10 pegs simply because the originals also do.
Sauguad👍
Play the "El Carnaval de Venecia" By Francisco Tarrega I hope you notice me
Now I got you Flynn Rider...
Amazon on had vocal duets so I tried to buy cd from arpegiato but download was invalid. It downloaded but will not play.
Strange. Can you please send me an email at arpeggiatomusicschool@gmail.com with the details and we will make sure it gets worked out

Baroque guitar is the one that was brought by the Portuguese to Hawaii and eventually evolved into the Ukulele, right?
I believe that was the Renaissance guitar, actually.
@@brandonacker Ah my mistake. Thanks!
ever thought about doing something with a bow? could be interesting
