the white hair dude looks so proud of his playing while kazuhito is like 10 times better but seems so objective. like he's playing for himself to enjoy.
from Jose' Sepulveda, the Brazilian....El Hermeterec.......to everybody out there who heard and watched this video......you have just witnessed the greatest classical guitarist in the world, Kazuhito Yamashita! Larry coryell notwithstanding, this performance is amazing and there is nobody on planet EARTH who can surpass the great Kazuhito. Yes, even I think he sometimes plays things too fast , but it is simply a testament to his amazing technique! All hail Kazuhito, the leitmotif.
from Jose' Sepulveda, the Kid From Brazil........Kazuhito Yamashita is so good that I almost feel that I don't need to ever watch any other classical guitarist play. Nobody living today can surpass what he can do.....he is touched by God.
I do not understand one thing: what is the second guitar for? If this is enough, I wanna then play something together with (let's say) Angello Debarre or Biréli Lagréne. I hope I could chatch few notes if it was not too fast..LOL
Larry looks at the sheet music each time he realizes he is ruining the piece, and I think he can´t read it, he just turns his eyes to the paper and imagines he is reading a tab trying to forget all his problems and shame =[
PEOPLE!!! PLEASE PROVIDE ACTUAL TABS FOR THIS PERFORMANCE!!
There's a deal of various tabs for guitar pro, but they are all suggesin' to do this with FIVE guitars at the same time, whereas it sounds best with two like in this video!!

It's not that the white guy in this video is bad... he's not. He's shredding up Vivaldi with some mistakes. It's that the Asian guy makes him look like shit. They should've found a better partner for the Asian.
What is this, a joke? The moron with the electric guitar shouldn't even have bothered trying. Maybe he should have spent more time rehearsing and less on his perm.
@Dongdot123 Doubt it. Musicians tend to make strange faces when playing. This is especially observable in string instruments. Just look at the great cellists--watch Yo Yo Ma play for five minutes and count the facial expressions he cycles through.
I think the man with glasses was splendid! Perhaps out of his element, but still good indeed. For everyone slandering him; why don't you try and do better?
I thought I knew what guitar playing was after 39 years of a love relationship with the instrument.... until I saw Kazuhito play ... play is not the appropriate word ... more like ... until I saw Kazuhito envelope himself in the guitar, becoming one with it, pour gas all over himself, strike a match and set himself, his very soul on fire, do I now truly know what guitar playing is. Hands down... Master of Masters
Esta visto que la especialidad de Larry Coriel es el jazz y no lo clasico. Hay que ser valiente y sinverguenza para lanzarse a hacer el ridiculo junto a un virtuoso como yamashita. De otro planeta realmente
i dont understand why the yamashita choose this guy to play with him. he seems to really suck comparing both, yamashita kicks that guy's ass, and he's playing a classical guitar with his fingers...
@faipas49 well whats the big deal bout playing classical guitar with fingers?its the way it should be done, not with plectrums. and you have to understand that larry, playing acoustic guitar, must use a plectrum so he cant hit notes that fast...
@InbictaProductionzZ dude, i know that classical guitar should be played with fingers, i play classical guitar for 9 years -.- i just said yamashita kicks larrys ass with no plectrum, and that's amazing, "whats the big deal"?
this is fuckin awesome!!!! but I have to say I'd like it even more if it were John Mclaughlin, he's got a fluidity on steel that would really complement kazuhiti
@ahhhhhhhhdude i think it's been done on purpose... to show the difference of playing using a pick and without it... and of course to show how without is "better"
@ahhhhhhhhdude I'm not sure if he's actually doing that on purpose or if his finger's aren't fast enough because classical players will often do that to give lead to the lead guitarist.
@TheEpicGuitarist so classical players will play like shit on purpose in order make the lead seem better? never heard that before. i can understand playing softly, but not playing like someone just handed you the composition.
@ahhhhhhhhdude he uses a steel-string guitar, which needs much more pressure on the strings than the plastic-string, so it's bit harder to play this kind of music on the steel-stringed one.
he's using a electric guitarr, it's not the same effect in a acoustic you have to scratch the string and pus the note, in electric only within pushing the note is enough...
well, the asian kid was good. the other lad couldnt really keep up. im sure he could have if it were slower! however i dont think it should have been played i think it belongs up at this pace
@Geisttanzer I'm sorry but Larry is completely out of his league in this context. And you saying that Kazuhito "just plays" is beyond ignorant. He broke new ground numerous times with his transciptions of works never before played on guitar. He invented new techniques on the classical guitar. He plays with passion, expression, technical brilliance. He's used his stature to promote new composers, premiering over 60 new works for classical guitar. etc. etc. etc.
@mcj3691 He's a great guitar player, yes, but he takes away the art from playing and stays only with the technique, I don't really see what's so great about a guy who can reproduce a whole orchestra using only 6 strings, his version of Pictures at an Exhibition is completely boring. To me, Kazuhito is a mere display of virtuosity, and if I want to listen to virtuosos I'd rather listen to Joe Satriani or Steve Vai, I don't want a guy imitating the london philarmonic orchestra with a guitar
@Geisttanzer well that's one of the great things about the classical guitar, like the piano, can produce the sounds of an orchestra but in smaller sound.
