I Giorni on Acoustic Guitar by Ludovico Einaudi

[poqwieur]

this works. surprisingly works :) when something written on a piano for a piano is transferred to a different instrument it tends to lose a lot of its character - but gotta say you've captured those 88 keys onto your six strings pretty bloody well!

thanks for making this a genuine pleasure to listen to.

[hunteruh]

wow most covers are nowhere near as good as the original, but this is so surprisingly good!

[jaggysnake3]

Awesome! Learning this beautiful piece- so much easier thanks to your videos :)

[yokeef]

dude, ever think about acoustifying Bach's cantata no. 140? That would be insane



[Richter132435]

@yokeef Christ its funny you should say that cos its one I perform :)... I'll dig out the cam corder ;)

[marlou169]

einaudi's music is beautiful...... but even more so on guitar:)

[Richter132435]

@marlou169 Thanks alot, i'm happy you enjoyed it, kind of you to say

[harrirogers]

Any chance you could post some tabs for this man? Such an amazing version!

[Richter132435]

[yapira3d]

Banging, thumbs up.

[Richter132435]

@yapira3d :) thanks kindly

[menonism]

I heard this tune recently in an advert here in India and fell in love with it. My friend what you've done is simply magical. I've seen your instructional videos for the song. I can't read music sheets and can't follow videos all that well! So would really appreciate if you could share the tabs for this song. Once again, great work!

[Richter132435]

@menonism Hi there, check out the tutorial on it on my channel :)

[TheBeastmode111]

[Richter132435]

@j05h885 Happy you've enjoyed it... thanks for listening! :)

[JoeyG1996]

Is your guitar tuned half a step down? Cause i tried it capo 5 along with you and it wasnt right, so i went down to five and it was!

[Richter132435]

@JoeyG1996 that'll be the one dude... that guitar was being used gig after gig at the time that vid was made :)

[telhacerta]

What would you consider it: intermediate, difficult or advanced??

[Richter132435]

@telhacerta hmm.... I'm not too sure.. I thinks its not too bad under the finger but like everything, it can go wrong at the drop of a hat if your not focused on it :)

[krithi256]

Absolutely stunning - Bravo!

[Richter132435]

@krithi256 many thanks... glad you enjoyed it :)

[bubbastylin]

[Richter132435]

@bubbastylin Happy you've enjoyed it... thanks!

[OnlineMagicTV]

Brilliant playing!! I'm gonna have to try and learn this! How long did it take you to learn it all? :)

[Richter132435]

@OnlineMagicTV Thanks, glad you enjoyed and yep, give it a good go! It took 1 and a half years to arrange and about a year of playing to get it to settle under hand :) thanks

[lauraaVd]

[Richter132435]

@lauraaVd well, i hope you get one, and sit making a whole lotta noise :) its alot of fun... happy you've enjoyed this! thanks

[TheSilasblack]

Very good. nice finger work

[Richter132435]

@TheSilasblack Thanks, glad you enjoyed it

[fervanheel]

very good. looking for taps, can you help?

[Richter132435]

@fervanheel Hi there, sorry but i have none, this is my own work from the piano sheet music... there are some dudes selling it in a book at the moment if you try with that thanks.

[kevluvzchips]

I used to play this piece a lot of the piano back when I had access to one. Sadly, I haven't been able to play one for some years now, but watching this video brought back a lot of good memories.

Very well played on the guitar, especially for a piece originally written for a piano. Thanks for the brilliant video.

[Richter132435]

@kevluvzchips Really nice of you to say that dude, thanks kindly! Sorry to hear you can't get access to one at the moment.. Have you tried the electronic piano's? Cj

[nautaYT]

Very good work! do you have the guitar tab? could you send it to me please? Greetings

[Richter132435]

@nautaYT Hi there, sorry but i have none, this is my own work from the piano sheet music... there are some dudes selling it in a book at the moment if you try with that thanks.

[gijszaalberg]

amazing, simply stunning..Do you happen to have a tab?:)

[Richter132435]

@gijszaalberg Hi there, thanks and i'm happy you've enjoyed it... I think there are some guys doing sheet music for this if you have a look around... all the best!

[Richter132435]

@TheRoyalPython He he i know the feeling... I've alot to thank this music for :) glad you enjoyed it too thanks

[JanMischa]

i think it sounds better played deeper...but nice..im on the way to cover einaudi too..so im searching for inspirations



[Richter132435]

@JanMischa Go for it, best wishes!

[destinyJoeliva]

capturing !

[Richter132435]

@destinyJoeliva :) sweet of you to say, thanks

[fabiopea]

what is the name of the first song, you starting to play?

[Richter132435]

@fabiopea hey there, its Pavane op. 50 by Gabriel Fauré, its a stunning work, on the guitar i usually tune string to it cos my transcription is in E so you can tell pretty quick if the things out of tune :)

[fabiopea]

@Richter132435 thank you :D

[Richter132435]

@KeoghPlease kind you think that... thanks :)

[babybinladen123]

can you message me the tabs please

[Richter132435]

@babybinladen123 sorry there, there are none... 

[libeirut1]

very good, sound quality not great, but fine quality of playing fella!

[Richter132435]

@libeirut1 happy you enjoyed it

[HybridGuitars]

This was such beautiful playing. Thank you for sharing it with everyone. It's such a soft, warm sound you create, so really really well done with this :) It's lovely.

[Richter132435]

@HybridGuitars Thats really kind of you, thanks alot and i'm happy you' ve enjoyed it

[Nlla546]

This is so amazing =P I could listen to you play this on guitar all day long :) x

[Richter132435]

@Nlla546 Really sweet of you to say :)

[SanjPram]

Hey! It was great :) I'm actually trying to learn this on the guitar with a bit of improv. Please do listen to my piano cover of I giorni! Btw, the capo's on the 5th fret right?

[Richter132435]

@SanjPram Many thanks, I had a look on your vis and some lovely playing over there, alot of heart, well done.... yes the capo is on the 5th and its standard tuning... although the guitar might not actually have been in E that day, i'll need to check that one incase the tones don't match :)

[SanjPram]

@Richter132435 Aah ok :) Hope i'll be able to do it on the guitar some day :D Thanks!!

[defmaa]

I like so much!!

Open tuning or standard tuning?

Goood work!

[Richter132435]

@defmaa thanks alot, yep its just standard tuning, capo on the 5th fret... :)

[defmaa]

@Richter132435

Thanks so much!!

[Richter132435]

@defmaa totally welcome, although its on the 5th fret i'm not too sure the guitar was perfectly on EADGBE that day, i'll need to check that... :)

[Angelus12308]

Just,simply wonderful mate.

Keep on the beautiful work ;)

[Richter132435]

@Angelus12308 Many thanks, happy you've enjoyed listening to it :)

[killedbyAP]

[Richter132435]

@killedbyAP as i've said, that wave, took months to get right :) thanks and glad you enjoyed it

[BrikSwoony]

BEAUTIFUL mate ! Early morning here in NewZealand and a nice way to start the day hearing this !

[Richter132435]

@BrikSwoony Good one, glad its set the vibe for the day :) Cj

[sanidhya123]

[Richter132435]

@KeoghPlease I hope you do and my best wishes for you to do this... share the joy :)

[iifoundher]

- How would I get this music in guitar format 'Richter132435?-:) lol-

Everytime I play this vid- it goes through me...!!

My lady said- 'I'm to learn this' -lol-

...any help would be appreciated...!!

She's only watched it, like maybe a hundred times...!!

[Richter132435]

@iifoundher hmmm... now that seems like your in a bit of guitar trouble... you might need to buy some time for a lil till you get it, there are tutorials on the channel too so have a look through em, go chord by chord then add the picking in there and bang!!! you'll get it, unfortunately there are (to my knowledge) no tabs (unless the lil dude that said he'd tabbed it from my tutorial) has posted it :) or, you could er "guitaraoke" it with a tape playing it in the background ? :)

[iifoundher]

Lol:) taking the hat off to ya!!!

[Richter132435]

@iifoundher thankyou

[iifoundher]

Awesome lol- where'd you get the music on guitar for I giorni??:))

[Richter132435]

@iifoundher transcription from the piano music... I had to add and leave out so much from this cos the guitar tangles up the fingers :)

[SiddhartaMcCandless]

yeah, YOU are a guitarist!

[Richter132435]

@SiddhartaMcCandless thanks kindly, thank you

[iifoundher]

Wow...!!

Tell me, do you wanna teach soneone? Hahaha:))

Flawless style...!!

Literally Amazing

[Richter132435]

[dhextall1]

Good to see a brit doing some cool fingerstyle arrangements. good work man.

[Richter132435]

@dhextall1 Glad you've enjoyed listening to it, thanks

[muehler]

[Richter132435]

@muehler :) really happy your enjoying it so much... thanks and absolutely help yourself to listening as many times as you want.. thanks Cj

[gurdevahluwalia1]

one of the best pieces i've heard in a long time..i jus love the piano but have to admit that the guitar does complete justice to the song. u r good man.

[Richter132435]

@gurdevahluwalia1 many thanks dude, really happy to hear that. that guitar right there is a yamaha, it got such a lovely bright sound and when you play something like this on it... wow... glad you've enjoyed listening, Cj

[ThorThunderGod14]

Ahhh man this is so so beautiful, I've already commented a few months back I think, but just re-lived this piece, I love it, thanks again

[Richter132435]

@ThorThunderGod14 again, very very welcome :)

[SillyMeeMoo]

I added this to my favourites

Truly amazing and beautiful, keep it up! (Y) x

[Richter132435]

@SillyMeeMoo many thanks for that :) thats kind of you

[jeconomides]

You're a genius. Fantastic - great work. Thanks for your instructional videos too on how to play this.

[Richter132435]

@jeconomides really welcome :)

[Hallyyx]

So beautiful..i just sit down and close my eyes. You are so amazingly talented, i hope you realise how many hearts you're touching..I love listening to your work. Unreal.

[Nitrokid2345]

Brilliant sounds just as good as piano in my opinion!!!!! :-) What is the song called at the begining just before you start to play i giorni???

[Richter132435]

@Nitrokid2345 :) thankyou, kind of you to say.. that lil part is part of the Gabriel Fauré Pavane Op.50 , thanks again

[singawatude]

Love this very much. Love the song, but as I love guitar more than life, this touches my heart. Amazing.

[Richter132435]

@singawatude really kind of you to say, really happy its touched you in this way... thank you

[kc7020]

Fantastic!

For me I'd say the acoustic encaptures the songs softer undertones much better than the electric, although both are still incredibly beautiful.

[Richter132435]

@kc7020 definately agree there, I did an elecrtic as an experiment and also the poor lil cam i had at the time could hardly pick it up :) thanks alot for listening ! :)

[powerlifer]

Mate these are brilliant this the electric version the le onde, i must have listened to these 100 times in a week.

Please do more ASAP if your taking requests then - In un'altra vita if possible or giorni dispari.

Take care and keep up the good work

[Richter132435]

@powerlifer thanks alot and really nice you've enjoyed these! there's an interperitation of giorni dispari on my chanel if you have a little dig through the vids, I've alot of vids just about to post over the next few weeks so i'll keep you posted :)
