  • where can I find the sheet music??

  • ... -.- yo que a esa edad jugaba todo el dia ps U.u mejor le hubiera dedicado mas tiempo a la guitarra :S (ahora que tengo 21 soy experto en musica clasica :S pero soy demasiado viejo como para ser especial :S)

  • He's a great wee guitarist - but he can't handle his bevvy - 6 slugs of Jack Daniels ans he's away...pity, cos he got all the making.

    Just joshing - a prodigy and no doubt!

    KK

  • what is that thing on his guitar tuner? looks like a digivice.

  • awesome - GOD BLESS

  • If you think you are good, there will always be an asian kid better than you.

  • this was in Iljimae right?!?!

  • It's Air on the A String played in the 3rd Fret, that means Cmaj..

  • outstanding job kid :)

  • just give him fucking electric guitar !!!!

  • With such impressive guitar skills, this lad will be seeing plenty of 'G'-strings in his time XD

  • Imagine this kid jamming out with Sebastian Bach himself sitting in a big reception room decorated with gold and mahagony. The patrons would be pleased. He plays so good it is simple to close my eyes and feel like I am enjoying the music in this very same room in 1723.

  • This kid is technically brilliant. To play such a complex classical guitar with ease shows immense talent. With age, I'm sure a certain feeling and subtly will develop. He's got lot's of time.

  • @Klinkerklunk you need to check out his latest vids. He has done just that.

  • where is your eye?

  • @ivandragom what kind of question is that? i love how people who always laugh at other people get their bad karma in the end. Wouldn't be surprised if you'd lose an eye or get blind or whatever just because you made fun of this kid's eyes... it's a shame people like you still exist in these modern "evolved" times Ivandragom

  • @PhongHuynh1981 be the good guy here on youtube is easy! I doubt that you are so good that he never spoke ill of anyone. we are all equal. there are some who are better but in the end make the same mistakes the difference is that they hide them from others. kkkkk smile life is beautiful. comments are comments! hugs. sorry my English is bad. google translator

  • @ivandragom lollll

    

  • ur awesome kid.. ur better than me when it comes to guitar.. .

  • Well, okay.

  • That was bloody awesome Sungha

  • very nice!! beatiful n.n

  • Go check out ander fardal, watch him play this!:)

  • I don't like Sugha Jung........ I LOVE SUNGHA JUNG !

  • He's the new me! :P

  • he is so awesome!!!

    

  • Bloody Asian kids and their talents...

  • asian's will always do everything better than all

  • Listening to this made my night better, before I went to bed!

  • Can't believe he's not Japanese...

  • @SadamYT why should he be a Japanese? I jist can´t understand this logic :)

  • @SadamYT he's still asian

  • @SadamYT damn stereotypes...

  • @SadamYT i believe you're an idiot

  • @SadamYT how the fuck did this comment get 13 likes

  • @soundofsirence 13 ppl understood it xD

  • Good job! My heart melts when I hear this

  • you can say what u want, but this little kid knows how to jam a guitar!!! In ten years from now, he's gona be the best guitarist in the world!!!

  • Incredible. What an exceptional talent.

  • El inicio de algo sorprendete........

  • gezz people you are overly critical about how he play this tune. Sungha is only 4 or so in this video.

  • @youaremysong098 four? four?? FOUR?!?!?!?!??!?!

  • Good song ! :) But I prefer the original version, from orchestra...

  • Play it with emotion sucker. Bach is crying in his grave.

  • @gcanozturk bach's not a pussy, and try telling that to millions of six year olds learning bach

  • @gcanozturk  just a kid yo chill

  • Rule for living as a person: Recognize that others are better than us in one or many areas; else live frustrated for the rest of the remaining life.

    Get over it people, geniuses are born. Seems unfair, but its the truth and it will be easier to recognize it.

  • Very nice playing. Keep it going!

  • He played better than when he grew up.

  • i love you kid. omg such a beautiful playing

  • My friend, you are a monster of the guitar...

  • he so gewd. he play wif eyes closed.

  • Like Most Baroque music the Composer (Bach in this case) leaves a lot open for intrupretation. This is undoubtly the best Inturpretation of the Famous 'Air" not even originally intended for Guitar...BRILLIANT, COMPASSIONATE, INTUITIVE and played in a sumptuous TEMPO that I think Bach Would Love... Check out other performances of most older, more experienced musicians...Only Andre' Segovia would be this boy's equal and he is no long with us sadly

  • God D: there's something that asians cant do? D: but men, this kid is awesome :D

  • Robot kid

  • VERY nice. This young man has a great touch on the guitar. I most certainly will subscribe and keep watching! Great job Sungha Jung!!!!!!!!

  • Well done, bravo!

  • BIen ejecutado!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I really cant believe all these moronic comments. The only other classical Guitarist who can play Bach so Magnificantly and with feeling and Maturity would be ANdre Segovia. This Kid is a GENIUS by any standard. THIS IS ALSO HIS OWN ARRANGEMENT (doh) Air on a G String was not written for the Guitar. When I first heard it this i didn't see the video and was shocked when I realized his age. Unfortunately his is now in his teens and like a boy soprano has lost it playing crap rock sadly !

  • @nyentity I'm not sure "lost it" is the right words. Perhaps, "not using his classical skills right now" would be better.

  • johnn Sebastian would be proud

  • nice job, i love this song and you did a great job with it. keep it up.

  • what a beautiful boy ... keep up the impressive work ... flawless

  • he twain brerry hawd, he twain awl dayy and nite or he whil be beeten by niggah stick. No, but good job, kid.

  • Ive been playing for 13 years and i got to his technique is flawless. Beautiful job Sungha Jung!

  • mouais... bof

  • nice

  • Simply amazing! Curious combination of acoustic and classical guitar, both in shape and technique. Good idea, son, that you wear those disposable nails. Playing those steel strings with your own nails would slice them down merciless! LOL!

  • too bad he'll never drive as well as he plays guitar

  • Thumbs up if you thought that tampax ad was funny.

  • He looks younger than he is... I cannot belive he's the same age as me! he's awsome!!

  • @OXOXkawaiiisaanXOXO Well, this video is from 2008, so it's 3 years old. :)

  • this kid is good... and one day not too far is gonna be great.

  • this song is really slowly makes me feel sleepy but i don't know i always wanna hear it :D

  • this kid is the same age as me...jeez...what am i doing wrong? lol

  • All things considered....this was fantastic!  Very well done for a 30 year old....let alone someone of your age. Keep it up.

  • This kid really puts a damper on ones self esteem!!!! haha!

  • Wonderful. Fucking people who don't know talent would bash someone who actually learned something musical. If it's not perfect, that's fine. Imperfections make music and life more interesting any way. I didn't hear anything wrong with it.

  • Wow, brilliantly done!

  • your right hand is very good , your left is not so good you gotta cordenate your two hands , but nice job anyway that's a very hard song

  • Wow, I take my hat off to you Sungha, very nicely done.

  • He not only plays this with the maturity of someone 5 x his age with extensive trainning and experience but he also arranged this beautiful piece for the GUITAR. Bach didnt intend it for Guitar, it was originally a Chamber piece; his transcrpition is ASTOUNDING if you consider that. How can you dispute his "understanding" of the music; thats GENIUS! I prefer this to even Andre' Segovia's transcription and performance !

  • Good boy !

  • Magnificent!

  • He is a cold war era soviet robot sent to mind fuck us all man....I'm tellin ya how it is.

  • I would have to agree with people comparing him to the older players who are masters. I mean, if this kid is so damn talented as to be playing J.S. MOTHERFUCKING BACH at his age, I think it would actually be disrespectful to even begin to compare him to other players his age (or mine, for that matter). Of course he isn't emotionally mature enough to comprehend this music; he doesn't have enough life experience. But that aside, this blew my mind and quite frankly, I'm damn jealous. Keep it up! :)

  • Air is a beautiful song... this kid plays better than i ever have... kudos sungha dont pay attention to them... you have a gift

  • People that dislike are insecure little maggots. There not secure enough to say well done you did a great job. They think giving someone a complement will take away from there own little world pathetic. Can't stand it when people have to step on someone jsut to make themselves feel like a big man. PATHETIC!!! I like this kid and am enjoying his videos. Thanks Sungha your an excellent guitarist keep it up!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • I don't mean to interrupt your opportunity to put down Asians you assholes, but come on and leave this kid and his race alone. As if the jerks who comment can judge where technique and emotion's sidewalk starts and ends or would know what nuanced creativity is with their tiny blunt instruments (minds as it were). The same jerks who criticize him might flip if he were using metal instead of nylon strings or played harmonic too.

  • It's comments like these that stifle talent and creativity. He's sharing his gift with all of us. Does it matter if it's not the way you would play it? He's not you... enjoy or gtfo :)

  • how can some morons deny the talent of this Kid?!?! and why am i reading RACE in the comments... this video is made for MUSIC and not your own insecurities!!!!!!! just Shuddup and enjoy the beautiful music.

  • weird how people are calling this empty and sort. I mean he is a small boy, expect him to have already somekind of mastery? emotions through his guitar? its impressive enough he goes through the whole song with precision. you call all these kids who can barely play notes on piano talented and cute, but now that this kid comes along playing a guitar in the same level as , perhaps, a high school a Music major bound for berkeley, he suddenly is treated as if he is their competition

  • @ryanch11

    Yes, but that doesn't makes a difference in the third world :/ A high educated generation doesn't lead to food for milions of starving africans

  • yo kid...good job.. =)

  • If all kids were like this one in 18 years we would´nt have hunger and poverty in word anymore

  • @TheCanadaspike

    That doesn't even make sense ? What makes you think that?

  • Maybe you are empty. I was moved.

  • good technic. but the music is empty......there are no feelings...

    compare:

    watch?v=FUPx42UmSng&feature=re­lated

  • @TheKomando007 the diference you notice is in the guitar.. Nylon vs metal strings

    for classical music.. Nylon sounds more soft and smother . in case you have doubts of his skills that boy have been in concert live duos with the best of the best . watch youtube * sungha jung emmanuel * he can play as good as the best ones and is only in the early teens.. he could play classical music since he was 6 years old.

  • @Vann7

    You are right. The guitar is here important point. And I don’t have doubts of his technique but I think he is a little boy and emotionally not mature, and you can hear this in his (technically great) interpretations. He has a big potential but that is (technique) not enough to make really good music.

  • @TheKomando007 & probably @Vann7 - If this were your child, you'd be so proud you'd have a stroke. You say he's "emotionally not mature"? I'd hope not !! If he were, it would mean he had some advanced aging illness. @TheKomando007 - Why do you show a video of some guy who's been playing 20 times as long as this child? Appreciating things in context is not a sign of weakness, it's a sign of maturity, so I suggest you grow up and give this musician some appreciation. He's an amazing talent!

  • @nypoint

    I'm his age, play classical guitar much like this, and my parents don't give a shit about my ambitions.

  • @nypoint This kid is already better than I am and I've been playing for 6 years.

  • @nypoint well said i thought it was great

  • @TheKomando007

    this kid's technique isn't even really that good. pay attention to his fingering, if he sticks to playing like that he will have arthritis by the time he's 16. his pinky and ring finger just want to not be playing at all and he is extremely tense. (not saying he's bad, just needs to practice better form badly)

    but he's definetitly playing well, and playing with some style and adding some emotion to it...

  • @TheKomando007 Oh, shut up. You're obviously just completely jealous of his skills. 

  • @TheKomando007 Speaking of empty and no feelings, check your head and your heart. Oh, and ask mommy where the shift is located, how to spell 'technique', and how to use an ellipsis.

  • @TheKomando007 that guy is like 40 years older than this kid.......give the kid some time to develop.....

  • are you kidding? he is only 15!

    He was born at 1996

  • @TheKomando007 That is untrue. There are feelings in every bit of music, albeit they aren't always the correct ones that the music was intended for. But you are right, he is emotionally immature simply because he doesn't have the life experience required for this type of music. And I think you were right in saying so because if he is going to play this caliber of music, he should be prepared to be compared by really talented musicians.

  • 73 idiots don't like that he is asian. lol pathetic. I just can't think of any other reason i'm sorry.

  • Not bad ...far away from perfection but outstanding for a boy at this age.

    he is Not Segovia,Julian Bream or Williams ;) but he is cute and talented!

  • So awesome! You have inspired me to commit to playing everyday (period). Its got to feel so go to imitate such a master so perfectly.

  • Great performance!

  • Paulinho Nogueira's version is better (:

  • Oh this kid is so cute :D

  • awsome kid

  • Bravo!

  • You hang in there, you got a lot of ability kid!

  • @Marubache are you kidding this kid is a genius!!!

  • @kvo370 dood, he said arranged, not performed.

  • very bad arranged(((

  • Sungha is so cute looking in this. <3

  • i thought one had to reach puberty to rape :'(

  • well done my man well done

  • 1:07 X_X mind fuck

  • Excellent job!! Sungha !

  • DONDE CONSEGUISTEE ESAS UÑAAAS????

    quierooo d esas xq a mi m cuesta q m crezcan =D

  • i love this song <3 your cute !

  • wtfffff how can he play that song at that age?

  • @LiivingMyLife thats called a natural!

  • Vou quebrar meu violão... esse piá é demais!

  • what the...

  • Im jealous. Flipin awesome 

  • 70 people need to respect the music, and the effort that this kid put into learning this piece. And, Sungha Jung, well done. You should be very proud of yourself. You did an excellent job. =)

  • can he plays something else than classical piece or arrangment ? he is incredible but a guitar player NEED to be versatile these days

  • @math1st He's hardly a one trick pony! He plays all genre of music, like a pro and with ease.

  • You have the classical sauce.

  • Chuck Norris could of played this on his beard

  • WINNING! =D

  • with a good imagination u could think, his left hand is hiding behind an others man hand, which is actually playing the song :]

    but nooo asians dont cheat, right? :)

  • Comment removed

  • with a good imagination u could think, his left hand is hiding behind an others man hand :]

  • snakes have ears dude

  • how can you be so good Y_Y Life's unfair!! I want to be that awesome!!

  • My only regret is that I did not take the initiative and learn the guitar at as young of an age as this boy. Maybe if I did I would be half as talented as him.

  • When I saw the label, I thought this was going to suck because I assumed that Air on G would have only worked on a violin. This kid proved me VERY wrong. And I congratulate him for proving me wrong!

  • cool kid

  • beautiful soul

  • 70 dislikes??? you guys are just fucking jealous!!!

  • q chevere toca este niño q hermosa musica

  • Such tiny fingers; such great music!!

  • You are a young Segovia B R A V O

  • id be this good too if my parents forced guitar on me at a young age and were rich enough to provide all the high-end guitars and accesories

  • His talent has nothing to do with his race, people...he could have been born Hispanic, Caucasian...or anything else. And still, his beautiful soul would shine through.

  • GREAT JOB 70 PEOPLE CAN SUCK MY BUTT

  • Beautiful!

  • Jeez crazy Asians! What is their secret?!

  • ok a little human, very good sound, but not can understand the roots and the reason

    but go on !

  • amazing just amazing

  • Yes!

  • how could someone dislike this? i think he's doing an amazing job.. so much talent at such a young age!! <3

  • You just got sunghaed !

  • You go Sungha....Very impressive

  • I can't say anything amazing !

  • wow..this is amazing

  • 68 dislikes? you people deaf or just fiucking stupid!!

  • Thank you Sungha for the inspiration , because of you i learned this beautiful piece !!

  • Practice.... We talkin about practice ? Yes, Mr. Iverson, we are.

    ubung macht den meister

  • The kids awesome... keep it up little man

  • This kid is the next Segovia.

  • qlio tierno

  • I love how he takes his time with the comp and just lets it flow through his fingers.
