August Rush - Playing in the park "Ritual Dance by Kaki King"

[xJustynLx]

Dude, Michael Hedges wrote this song

[mariabidirinis]

This remembers me to MIYAVI (Selfish Love song)... he plays slapping like a machine!!

[dajiaoma77777]

The player in this is Kaki King, however the original piece is by Michael Hedges. Please correct this.

[FreshOrangeBlast]

Man! I love how the music just takes over the main character in this movie! It's so amazing how musicians just live for the music! I mean like music is their LIFE! It amazes me!

[carlojeffersonyu45]

[chydelvscsimpson]

What is this movie about

[BillyJoeVegas]

@userHuge

I agree...I surely enjoy and give kudos to Kaki... but just as there was one Jeff Buckley... there will only be one Michael Hedges (for his innovations IMHO, he still, stands alone)

Just two examples from the top of my list of musical ingenuous that sprung from one off molds)

I was blessed to have caught live shows from both, and I place both on pedestals far above other GREATS within their genres.

[BillyJoeVegas]

"Ritual Dance" was written by the late GREAT guitarist Michael Hedges

(very fine presentation by King)

[UserHuge]

@BillyJoeVegas Right, i read "Ritual Dance by Kaki King" and was like what the hell? Kaki King plays a slightly different version from the Michael Hedges' original, but I wouldn't wonder if she does because she can't play the original composition...

[JadenKuzelka]

It's not that difficult as long as you get the tuning right and your all right at tapping and have good rhythm.

[usernameq100]

@dara9837 it doesn't look like an easy song at all

[FredsterxX]

@MagicMichi11 and @danielatrinity Yes, he plays himself :) I have the DVD and there I watched the "B Rolls", which is something like a making of. And there you can actually see him playing himself! Also in a french interview Freddie Highmore (the actor) said that it was him with his own fingers ;). But on the OST this is performed by Kaki King.

[jeanluis73]

que hermoso sonido de guitarra he una gibson unos 4 mil dolares he asta mas

[mjrl1604]

i love this movie!!!! and also love the music.... the way he play the guitar is awesome... Kaki King plays awesome!!!!

[NarutoMajere]

Michael Hedges wrote Ritual Dance.

[DERRRREEERR]

this is not a song from kaki king

the original song is ritual dance from michael hedges

kaki king make a diferent version of michael hedges song

[MagicMichi11]

did the actor play this himself???

[danielatrinity]

@MagicMichi11 Nah! xD haha he can play but not this way. Is a doble actor and I think is a girl ^^

[panconquesoderretido]

@danielatrinity Is perfomed by Kaki King also in the movie as a double actor and she is just amazing.

[countrygirl4evr17]

@danielatrinity just read an article Freddie Highmore on "August Rush"

Q: Did you have to learn how to play guitar?

FREDDIE: About six months beforehand I had been practicing guitar. I concentrated mostly on the songs I had to play. I got those down pretty well so they could use me actually playing.

[ChuckNorris5011]

@danielatrinity Kaki King did sound.

[LordViper478]

@danielatrinity well, hey, if you can play, you can play. Still a great movie all together. Even better to know its based on a True Story!!!

[ChronoPhoenix]

@MagicMichi11 KAKI KING babe. Kaki KING. Playing with the pink noise man.

[guitarmanbadass]

@MagicMichi11 kaki king played this part or her hands at least :l

[dara9837]

@MagicMichi11 i think he does it's a pretty easy song

[josafodathekal]

@MagicMichi11 It was played by Khaki King, a brutally talented gal...

[Yanosh10111]

Dumbass bieber

[1xskaterguyx11]

[joanie2825]

[naczzang]

sungha jung!

[CloversXD]

ARTHUR'S JEALOUS~

[tomaf]

the music isn't really by Kaki King, it's by Michael Hedges, the greatest guitar player / composer ever (may he rest in peace). It's just performed by Kaki King here.

[sunmoonsect]

I don't play guitar, but i wanna see someone is really playing this music. Plz someone play it, tube it

[theacousticguitardud]

what tuning is used here?

[someperson1001]

@theacousticguitardud I believe it's - from lowest to highest - DADGCC. Both C's are the same pitch

[allengrant1]

the music itself and escpesially with the part in the movie u can hear the want and physical cry through the melody of the song but all in all this song is just simply beautiful =)

[RmNaNtCbScRrn]

lol when they shoot his whole body his hands look small but when they shot only "his" hands,,, they look big and different

[amolamusicacarajo]

Una de las mejores pelìculas que he visto.

[TheMYHAPPYMONSTER]

I love the expression of pure joy on Freddie's face. <3 I had a BIG crush on him when I was 12.

[devi23bala]

@TheMYHAPPYMONSTER ya me too

[jadahbre21]

[treeradioproductions]

I wish he was actually playing it. that would be really cool

[fhercentury]

what guitar is that?? what model is??

[danielatrinity]

@fhercentury  It´s a Gibson J-200 ^^

[Varogreenday]

@danielatrinity I have this guitar!!

[TheR8Driver1]

@danielatrinity It's actually a SJ 200 EC

[rachaelbear6]

i know ppl who get like this, they get into a type of trance when playing. they say theyre feeling the music.

[TheOjalaqueque]

@rachaelbear6 too bad music does not work the way this movie tries to make you believe. You don´t grab an instrument for the fist time in your life and play a finished studio recorded song. Too bad. Also the actor is not playing. I would like to believe that these things are so obvious everyone would notice, but seems not.

[sorbaelbuda]

@TheOjalaqueque no te diste cuenta..q la noche q coge la guitarra....

al dia siguiente..o al amanecer..recien ..la enchufa al parlante....

dando a entender.q. practico toda la noche...

....

[WaveBouncers]

Music is all around us, all you have to do is listen. Its true, I hear it, not always but still..

[danielatrinity]

@WaveBouncers

[WaveBouncers]

[danielatrinity]

@WaveBouncers
