Hello Tavi and greets from Ireland.This is a great piece and very well played by you...I notice now that John Feeley one of our classical guitarists from Ireland has now recorded this piece for youtube.I wonder what you think of his performance.

i saw John Williams play this piece back in the 80's at Roy Thompson Hall in Toronto.Its a very powerful piece in a live setting.I would love to see you live.Thanks for taking me back friend beautiful playing.

Very nice, couple of mistakes but well recovered.

I really like the way you did bars 89-120, you got a real tremelo feel & nailed it.

I'm interested that at 9:44 on the descending motif (bar 182 I think) you play a C# on the G string (with the A on the E string), I've always played that as a C natural ( natural carried from the C natural 2 notes before) - sounded like you meant to play the C# which is why I question it.

I really enjoyed your performance, thanks for posting.

@lbk3918 You are correct, dear friend, there should be a C natural instead of C# (at least, I think so not having the music in front of me). Such things happen in live performances :) Thank you for watching it so carefully. Best wishes and I hope you continue to enjoy making music!

Amazing playing. could never do this piece in my life. Bach at his best.Performed by the best

Bravo¡ Beautiful¡ I was listening Bach all the time. I was fully concentrated listening to your concert from the beginning to the end. Although Chaconne was written for violin, in my opinion it is the top piece for guitar. Thanks.

Hey I was just wondering...I watch a lot of these videos of classical guitarist and I see they all have rather long and nimble fingers. I am an aspiring guitarist and I just wanted to know if this is just a genetic thing or can your hands really change from years of practice? I only ask this because I have smaller hands.

[TaviJinariuGuitarist]

@Manzie1000

I think the shape and muscle structure of your fingers can change after years of playing; my left hand fingers are longer and straighter than my right hand fingers and the muscles are better developed in my right hand. Nevertheless, finger shapes do not dictate ability. Segovia had huge sausage-like fingers, Scott Tennant has shorter fingers, while Parkening has long and straight fingers; regardless of their finger shapes they are all great players. Cheers and good luck!

@TaviJinariuGuitarist Thanks for getting back to me so quickly, really appreciate it. I look foward to more of these awesome videos. Peace!

My honor to be the first poster. I love it. For a long, long time, this piece was considered the grand daddy of them all when it comes to classical guitar. It creates a standard for classical guitarists to go by. Tavi plays quite well and look forward to more postings. Thanks.
