Behind the scenes iphone footage of The Commander In Chief's own version of Toccata & Fugue, performed live on October 30th and 31st 2016, (+ a little surprise at the end). This was part of a secret project, in cooperation with a major record label, where The CIC made her very own versions of classical masterpieces.The arrangements were made by The CIC, in cooperation with producer John Haywood.
Shortly after these two performances she fell ill, when a vicious parasite infection wrecked havoc on her body for weeks. It would take her 16 months to recover, before she could get back to playing guitar again.
In March 2018 she announced that she was back in business, recording a double album with her own original music. For more about that project, including a sneak peak of the music, join her on:

These videos were filmed by The CIC's manager/mom. They were meant for practice purpose and were never meant to be released to the public. However, The Chief wants to share this with her fans, so they can see for themselves what she spent months working on, before her illness. She also worked on another classical masterpiece, and she might release videos of that later.

Respectfully Commander.
Don't let them tell you what to do. Your playing is just awesome, and you don't need more "stage presence" than being the Commander in Chief.
I'm grateful for watching you play this. It is 2018, you can produce your own record if you really want.
I'm working on my 3rd album now ;) Thanks!
I've never ever seen anyone play any song by Bach where they looked like they are having fun, well until now. I can't tell how enjoyable that was to watch. Quintuple awesome 😍
Commander that I mean THAT was absolutely sick. Very few people man or woman can get a feel for the guitar like you can. The notes, tone, verb the cleaning ness are amazing. I love the sound that you have set up. Takes me back to the 60's. It's a sound of yesterday and maybe more young guitarist should hear it. I've said it before it Commander in Chief. Don't stop at lease anytime soon.
Thank you so much for your support! :)
Well I'm not so sure about Johann Sebastian Bach living in 60's. But I agree with the rest. The amount of practice and patience. Such a commitment. Totally worth it.
@@thecommanderinchief1 i just discovered you today ..I'm a accomplished guitar player. But you are absolutely amazing.just wow....
Excellent performance. Thank you!
Awesome! I love it when classical pieces are rendered with modern technology and style.
What a breath taking version of this piece ! Artistry . J.S.Bach would be so proud honored......even excellent work !
That's why I love the electric guitar, it can sound sweet, relaxing, powerful, aggressive and so on. This masterpiece was played incredibly well. We can hear every single note. Congrats. You are a genius.
This just goes to prove that electric guitar is a truly universal instrument; it doesn’t matter what genre you play it can be used by the right person! And my word you have proved beyond any shadow of a doubt that Classical music is no obstacle for a guitarist who enjoys classical music!
You are so great. I didn't know about your illness, indeed it was strange that there were no news from you during those years. I am very sorry for that but also happy to know that you have fully recovered. Best wishes!
excellent really captured the style and power of the original very listenable. congrats.
You are already a guitar goddess, record label or not!
Awesome rendition! Not only Bach would be proud but this piece also does justice to the guitar you hold. You see several guitarists handling 7/8 stringers but very few truly take them through their paces in a meaningful manner, yours is a rare exception. Ibanez should be very proud of you too. Very well done.
Great style, performance and persona, you really have something. Love it and wish you well.
sweet amazing neo classical beautiful exquisite-real mad genius-very dope
wat-yr stage presence??-therye crazy-yr extraordinarily exceptional-wat an outfit-brilliant-u r the best

Wow, love this version. It's great to see you play like that without the fancy video. Show's how clean your playing really is. Fantastic technique and tone. Well done and very impressive.
Thank you so much!!!

Incredible. And very artistic. Applause!
Perfect work! Taking the electric guitar to high levels.Good for you!!!
Stunning artist/ guitar performance
Thank you!
One of my favorite Bach pieces. While I usually listen to it being played on a pipe organ, I absolutely love your guitar version (s)! To me, your tone is awesome & it sounds superb. Thanks for that & you definitely "picked" up a new subscriber😍
i ASSUME U NAILED THAT AUDITION!!!!!! U GOT TALENT!!!!!
clean and flawless performance 👍👍👍 ... this is for sure the result of some heavy steadily practicing.
Well controled. I like that in your style of playing.
Just superb,,, fantastic job,,, awesome job ,, the re are no words to describe this!!,, please play this piece with some distortion 👍😎
Wow that's amazing beautiful
on the seven string at the beginning it's great sound like a piano, overall great stuff, RESPECT
you're a fucking good player, playing this monument without distortion, cool
it take's month years to play toccata and fugue well and this is the case
like your look too
Thank you very much!
You are fantastic musician. I love your playing.
I love this girl
God like discipline, bot- timing. Super cool. Beautiful to watch. Style. Class. Elegance. Thank you!
Thanks a lot!!!
Superb! The ONLY thing more awesome than the performance is knowing that, except for the parts she improvised, Bach had to write down each one of those notes. Must have taken forever. . . .
Awesome playing.. I loved it.
Love it. I play it hybrid picked and and how it was written, But on acoustic. Think you did a great job, Lots of creativity.
Thanks! It was a lot of work over several months!
@@thecommanderinchief1 i bet it was! Very impressive. youre welcome !
so extraordinarily talented-sensitive-and beauttiful too-i enjoyed
Excellente adaptation à la guitare de la toccata et surtout un jeu d'une extrême propreté !
Merci

Magic of hands and soul! It's great when a beautiful girl plays beautiful music! 🥀🌸🏵️
what an inspiration to technique training. Fantastic performance.
She's back, yeahh
She's bach
Wow, all I can say is wow!
That was a fascinatingly clean take at Toccata and Fugue. Also showmanship that reminds me of Roy Clark.
wow! I love how you play those classical pieces on your seven-string... :)
Like a boss!!! love it.
What an amazing guitarist you are.
Thank you!
You are amazing! Keep rocking!!!
Wow you have turned a masterpiece into your own. love it! Keep at it!
Thanks!!!
I like her style..of playing..superb
I LIKE YOUR GUITAR TONE AND SOUND ! ! FROM JAPAN
You need to be famous!
Hermosa, genia y fantástica guitar player!!! interpretar al gigante y extraordinario J.S. Bach, en guitarra es un enorme desafío. Tuve un trío de música clásica, e interpreté en guitarra eléctrica algunos temas de Bach, sinceramente no es nada fácil!! Estoy asombrado al ver como interpretó Tocatta y Fuga,muy dificil tocar en guitarra!! The Commander in chief : You are beautiful angel of the six strings with a great voice!!!
Great stuff, I hope you keep going, you're so talented!
Brave to do it with a pure, clean tone. Great picking and timing. A small amount of overdrive could have made the tone stronger, but I am sure you thought of that!
Thanks! \m/
You have such a distinct style! A wonderful way to start my day. Best wishes!
oooh!!!!!!Love this interpretation
Piece is beautiful, skills are beutiful, you are beautiful.
Sounds Great !! Glad you are back !
Loved it.
Can't stop watching that left hand! Must be scary being one of the world's best guitar players huh?
Thank you very much for saying that. It's scary being a guitarist if you get injured and you don't know how long it will last, or if you'll need surgery, or if you'll never be able to play again, etc; It can also be pretty scary to play unusual material if you are a perfectionist and you are well aware of the difficulty level, the same can be said of expectations, which I've had to deal with since I was in my late teens, 1st in heavy metal and then in classical. There is a lot of work that goes into what I do & there will always be those who don't understand that!
Have to stop making it look so easy !
Thrilled with reply by the way!
Wish you best of health.
Don't take any c#@p from record companies either!
You can't play at 200 bpm and freakin dance at the same time !
Leonard Cohen did ok!
C.i.C is back whoop-whoop !
it's amazing.. omg ! ! ! ! ! !
Chapeau Madame!!!
Amazing showcasing JS Bach's music on electric guitar..
Amazing Human in thee world..😍😍😍😍
Thank you for the great performance. There are many videos on UA-cam where guitar players just try to shred this melody like Paul Gilbert. Those videos are the same, mostly. Your harmonious video contains unique and distinctive style, it's pleasant to listen.
I love her, but you can make your point withou shiting on someone else, in this case, Paul Gilbert.
That being said, I love your music #TCIC.
That was incredible.
I actually liked it before the beat came and could listen to you all day just play the piece on its own. But still.. Amazing..
I always admire your play. Praises for the clean and accurate performance. Can I buy TAB sheet music?
You've always stayed true to yourself, playing clean and with no fancy gimmicks (effects)
Hi. Can you do another version of this with fast thrash drums? You are amazing.
so beatiful... great job =)
Can't put my finger on it, but there is something highly explosive in her style which was greatly present in the rock covers on "I Am". I hope this spirit will continue and grow. I became a fan with the youtube video "Zigeunerweisen", and I was blown away by the guitar technique. That combination is just screaming for a new chapter of some rock music.
Very talented!
Thank you! 😊
@@thecommanderinchief1 I really meant it, it was not just being polite! I saw you a few years ago, but you disappeared. I'm pretty sure I'll hear more of and about you in the near future. Wish you all the best!
Excellente interprétation... Merci de ce beau partage.
Wow! You're amazing, and super Talented, and you sing and play piano as well 🤘
Take care of you, we want more awesome guitar playing like that
Thank you for this moment, Commander. One of my favorite pieces. I hear this being played THIS WAY,
way, way, way, way, way, way, way, back in the days of 'old!
Yet somehow you connect it to the now, creating a mystical blend, of the past
and the present, from which I hear the future.
(1685-2018 and beyond)
Wonderful Artistry, CIC.
Sorry to hear about the bug. On the bright side, now you know what people went through back in Bach's day.
That "long dark teatime of the soul" must of been a test. Hope all is well with you now.
I wish you forever success in your musical career.
Be Well, be You,
and forever aim True.
Play on..... Commander.
Thanks a lot!
All Hail, and mighty cheers to you, thecommanderinchief1.
You are welcome,
I speak truth.
This video just popped up on UA-cam, I hadn't heard of you before.
I subscribed and went to your channel and....wow!
I am right. You are the future of fusion.
If I may be so bold, your sounds vibrate the musical atoms, creating a new form of art. I know others have played like this, yet You have that essence, the quality that can't be taught.
It is the spark of God.
Your music is like a tapestry, the way you weave traditional, classical thoughts together with modern progressive ideas, creates a musical mosaic of wonder.
Saw the video where you interview your Mom.
What a remarkable woman. I see where you got your sense and sensibility from.
Like any new art form it takes a while for others to hear the light.
You have to remember you are the Commander in Chief. Some may not understand where you are leading us musically, being the Leader it can be a lonely experience.
You are exploring new territory. Remember the old sailing maps that say, for places no one has gone before,
"Here be monsters".
People are hesitant, even scared, of going to new places musically in their hearts and minds.
Thanks for coming back from your musical adventures and showing us it's all good, the unknown is now known.
This is what great Leadership is all about.
Your artistic Odyssey may seem daunting so remember those who
led people out of the wilderness of ignorance.
Your musical light may be blinding at first but people will adapt to a new way of seeing your musical playing in a whole new light.
Shine on, you're not crazy, you're a Diamond.
Increíble, una guitarrista única. Muy buena interpretación.
She is showing the diversity of that guitar.
Versatility. Yes.
beautiful clean sound!
Very cool. Yes i can see what they mean by stage presence.
superb playing
Thanks!
Fabulous!
Bien heureux de vous savoir rétablie, Berit!
Wonderfully clean playing!
Wow! That was impressive. Really liked it.
It's really nice, I didn't think that would sound so nice with an electric guitarre :o Maybe, one day I'll play it on the harp :')
Very impressive.
i like these way better then the other ones
Beautiful......❤️
Thank you!
Fine! Fine! Fine!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Cannot stop watching this! So inspiring !
I hope one day I get to play this amazing piece of art as sharp and as natural as you do! At least that's the plan XD
Amazing passion you've put in your work, and it shows big time! \m/
Thank you so much!
amazing
You are the best electric guitar player I even heared.....You diserve a decor in a cathedral by a great organ.....it will be better...
It's a pitty that your environment is not at the hight of your performance.
Thank you for sharing ♥
Greetings from Belgium
Arthur
It´s very interesting how you move your thumb and index to attack the string with the plectrum. To my viewing, it seems to be different from many guitarists, well at least it's different from how I play. Very nice piece! Thanks for your performances I enjoy a lot your videos. Regards!
Glad you're feeling better, I'm sure you'll be back at full POWER soon! \m/
HERMOSO, BEAUTIFULL!
to much awesomeness!!
