If you ever get the chance to go to a Tommy Emmanuel concert .. PLEASE GO!!!! I listened to Tommy's recorded music for years, never realizing what a soul-wrenching experiencing it could be to hear him playing live. It was my dream to hear him play live, but I figured my wife and I (on a pension) could never afford it. Anyhow, she quietly saved and saved without me knowing anything about that and on my birthday presented me with two tickets for us to attend a live Tommy Emmanuel concert together. OMG!!!!!!!! I'll never forget the joy of hearing Tommy live and the overwhelming appreciation I felt for my beloved wife. I'll go to my grave remembering it.
As a fan of Wim den Herder (the guy on the left) and Tommy for a long time I love this! Wim is a prodigious and I love his sense of groove and creative phrasing. I don't really get the negative comments as this is a song to riff and play with and nothing was overdone IMO. And Tommy knows exactly what to add and when as always. More!
I just love the creative process. It takes some big cojones to share the stage with Tommy, and I’m sure we’d all want to impress. Time and experience are the teachers
The phrasing and rhythmic precision of both improvisational soloists is perfectly timed and adds each ones favorite playing style to the arrangement, this play through isn’t supposed to build up and climax as the original Steve wonder version this is a chill song with chill chords that these two impeccable guitarist are soloing over like it’s nothing and are having a great time. This isn’t a cover folks this is a solo ham session so treat it like one, they’re soloing and are giving eachother the chance to play evenly, hoe they play is up to them and no doubt better than many folks can pull off
I wish this video had better sound quality. "Isn't she lovely?" is one of my favorite songs. I always think about a woman with whom I am falling in love. Besides, both players let their guitars sing as if the players are singing. Really master-class guitarists. As a novice guitar learner, I hugely and wholeheartedly admire them.
it's okay. indeed that is the plan and training. enough we assume they play the guitar together to entertain everyone. and Tommy Emmanuel is an open-minded guitarist. he is happy to see guitarists especially those who are still young can play the guitar well. it shows they are trying their best. continuous effort, will surely bring results...
Tommy is one of best rhythm players in history. He is schooling us all here. Stop focusing on the solos kids....if you can't Comp changes and hold it down, work on that first.
Interesting opinions on the guy on the left. Awesome guitarist. I think his phrasing is cool too. He's pretty epic for someone who looks like he's been playing half the time tommy has! His name should be in title.
How come Tommy's guitar sounds better every time? The other guy is also playing a Maton, other model, but still. Tommy's guitar sounds so clear and natural everytime
I have read many comments that are critical. This wasn't done for the general public. This was at the Masterclass Guitar Academy so it is most likely the guy on the left is intentionally overplaying. We don't get to hear any comments afterwards where maybe he explained what he was doing and why. If someone was there live and could enlighten us, that would be great. Otherwise everyone is entitled to their opinion. Mine is that this was a wonderful performance by both Tommy and Wim.
A young gun who plays very well and knows many very fast licks and an elder gentleman who can play great melodies and make a solo a song in the song. That is the deal!
Who's the idiot that thought of putting these two on stage together. One on the stage is enough to make my mind melt. Two is just frightening and uncalled for.
I wonder when is tommy emmanuel do a cover of the song Faithful Love by Cesar Manalili? Just because there are more 80million people who want to watch and listen this song.
I’m a really good singer in real life and this just shows my love of music I’ve been on America’s got talent prince got talent and it was my dream of saying in this kind of stuff
Tommy is great as always and while I have huge respect for Wim's capabilities, I really wish he would use his obviously considerable knowledge to make things sound musical rather than technical. He's got all the stuff to be one of the Greats.
"The guy on the left" is Wim den Herder - the owner and founder of the Guitar Academy, which is by now the biggest guitar school in the Netherlands. On this video,Tommy Emmanual is a Guest teacher of the Guitar Academy, as he knows Wim den Herder and supported him in his projets from start. This a masterclass for the students of the conservatory and the Guitar Academy. Wim den Herder changed the guitar landscape in the Netherlands and has invented new way's to play the guitar. If you didn't have a chance yet to meet Wim den Herder in person to learn and respect his work, I strongly recommend you to come to Amsterdam and take a lesson with him , it will be live changing... and then you can share your opinion about it...
Once you get that technically competent you have learned step ONE in making music. Just like learning a language. First you learn the letters, the words, the grammar and how to pronounce things properly. THEN, Step TWO, you learn how to break all the rules in ways to make what you write or how you speak INTERESTING. Tommy has mastered both steps. George, only Step ONE.

You know you’ve arrived when you’ve got Tommy playing rhythm for you.
Tommy has the best job. Great satisfaction and friendship with the world. Que genial!
And has the best talent for me

I never get tired of listening to Tommy Emanuel
I just love the creative process. It takes some big cojones to share the stage with Tommy, and I’m sure we’d all want to impress. Time and experience are the teachers
Trust me on this. If you get to play with Tommy like this you probably already have it...alot of it. Passions goes further than anything.
Nothing to compare these two they are so different to each other but they have the same common goal to give us music to live.
Tommys rhythm playing is powerhouse in this one
The phrasing and rhythmic precision of both improvisational soloists is perfectly timed and adds each ones favorite playing style to the arrangement, this play through isn’t supposed to build up and climax as the original Steve wonder version this is a chill song with chill chords that these two impeccable guitarist are soloing over like it’s nothing and are having a great time.

The best performance that i saw in my life ! Thank you Tommy and Wim !
Wim this is mental !!!
I think Tommy's kick-ass guest, deserves his name in the title.
c6rocks wim den herder
People who really love music and jazz would enjoy instead of hate.
I wish this video had better sound quality. "Isn't she lovely?" is one of my favorite songs. I always think about a woman with whom I am falling in love. Besides, both players let their guitars sing as if the players are singing. Really master-class guitarists. As a novice guitar learner, I hugely and wholeheartedly admire them.
DOOOPE rendition. Tommy Emmanuel kills damn near everytime.
Every musician has a freedom to express their music style, no blame need it if you dont like, give some apreciation if you like. Simple
That performance is a real thing of beauty
I love this so much, thank you lads.
Tommy can really make the guitar sing!
What did I just watch? I know..... what my 2019 will be like. These guys are AMAZING! HNYE!!!!!
Wim is a really impressive player but it feels like he just wants to get SO many notes in there. Tommy's solo is so musical, he's just freaking great
it's okay. indeed that is the plan and training. enough we assume they play the guitar together to entertain everyone. and Tommy Emmanuel is an open-minded guitarist. he is happy to see guitarists especially those who are still young can play the guitar well. it shows they are trying their best. continuous effort, will surely bring results...
exactly bro, tommy's experience on guitar alone is as old as this young guy lol how can you compare
tommys tone for the higher strings is just fantastic. not too twangy
First guy played every note in existence and then created some that didn’t exist yet!
this song makes me smile and tear dropping together
I think one of the most interesting guitar duet ever
nice when tommy got back to melody 2:16-2:30..beautiful sound
tweed guitar - yeah there's something about that melody that just sings underneath that chord progression. Stevie Wonder is a genius.
2:00
@@sebastiangruszczynski1610 i definitely agree with you
Marty is really rocking acoustic!
Mater Emmanuel is always plays with enthusiasm
Tommy is one of best rhythm players in history. He is schooling us all here.
Stop focusing on the solos kids....if you can't Comp changes and hold it down, work on that first.
His right hand is a masterclass. Same with all chord changes and walking notes.
Learn all your scales and arpeggios so then, you don't have to play them. Beautifully played guys LEGENDS!!
Magnifique!
Best solo ever!!!
I like when Tommy playing not too fast. I like such tempo.
isn't she lovely what a nice song..keep it up..!!cheerio
my goodness that was amazing
Interesting opinions on the guy on the left. Awesome guitarist. I think his phrasing is cool too. He's pretty epic for someone who looks like he's been playing half the time tommy has! His name should be in title.
How come Tommy's guitar sounds better every time? The other guy is also playing a Maton, other model, but still. Tommy's guitar sounds so clear and natural everytime
big ol smile on my face.... great job you both
Tommy is the EPITOME of Cool!
Nice. Best thing I have heard this week. Tight and easy to follow. Love to see the new up & coming. They are amazing too.

Tommy Emmanuel is the best of word
No, Biréli Lagrene is the best in the world. Check out his different versions of "Isn't she lovely". It really is another world altogether.
A young gun who plays very well and knows many very fast licks and an
elder gentleman who can play great melodies and make a solo a song in
the song. That is the deal!
True masters!
*know how to not overplay..
Wow, who's that guy next to Tommy Emmanuel? He's so gorgious and genius!
In the final analysis, music is a joyous noise. If it's genuine then it's good.
Who's the idiot that thought of putting these two on stage together. One on the stage is enough to make my mind melt. Two is just frightening and uncalled for.
1 WORD: PERFECT !!!
Incredible improvisation!!!
amazing !
I wonder when is tommy emmanuel do a cover of the song Faithful Love by Cesar Manalili? Just because there are more 80million people who want to watch and listen this song.
Great Picking!🎸
When the rhythm sounds better than the melody. best fingerstyle guitarist
I've literally going in and out of fullscreen more than 10 times. Just to check if I've liked this video. So damn crazily good omg!
just splendid.
This is more like "Isn't she crazy"
lol
this comment made my day lol
Lmao yes too aggressive... This song isn't supposed to be played like this
That double pick guard is pretty cool
Mike Z defens the sound pretty bad though acoustically
looks ugly as hell
its very nice, melodic and cool
I’m a really good singer in real life and this just shows my love of music I’ve been on America’s got talent prince got talent and it was my dream of saying in this kind of stuff
Magnifico!
Amazing talent!!!
Tommy, браво! Как обычно, гениально!!!
That was great. Nice lines..
A great musician knows when to sit down
MASTER!TOMMY
Outstanding!
Wow! Super enjoyed this!
Está sendo meu vídeo favorito no youtube
Complimenti! 👏👏👏
Wow.....so good
When ever Tommy is around it had to be an awesome display. Great performer T
Tommy is great as always and while I have huge respect for Wim's capabilities, I really wish he would use his obviously considerable knowledge to make things sound musical rather than technical. He's got all the stuff to be one of the Greats.
Nice jam!
Lovely...
God Bless You!
legends
Nice vibes!
Браво!!!!!
