Mesmerizing Classical guitar

[andantealamierda]

Haha very nice

[sunilnair01]

*YAWWWWWWNNNNNN* Did someone say mesmerizing???

[orlo1000]

how? 

[hermanify1]

I got bored in 4 seconds, & went back to listening to a real mesmerizing musician, Tommy Emanuel!! She can get back to me in 40 years!!

[astroboirap]

about as mesmerizing as taking a huge dump.

[drunvalo]

Sounds like Guilliani.

[sayakatom]

I found it truly mesmorising

John W

[rudyyy911]

SHES GOOD, BUT the title is misleading

[CuttingEdgeMetal]

Nope, not mesmerized....

[UFOIST]

Well played but, 'Practicing Classical Guitar' would have been a more honest title........

[ZiotheZero]

nope, this is just not working for me as I am still totally flaccid.

[narhem123]

Memorizing! Really?

[squarbman21]

how many pain pills did i take

[ShingThing]

yawn

[Knocktua]

Which part of this was mesmerizing?

[WanderleiSilva29]

i love all the youtube jimmy page players..... this girl moves the neck very well and is clearly not a beginner or intermediate player.

[papa62old]

It's clear that she is still learning but then arent we all. We are just at different stages of learning.. I think she is doing fine and she shouldn't stop. She's getting it.

[azkeyz]

No , get more control over the strings

Little more agressive approach , but back off if things get buzzy !

All single note phrases should get special attention on entro and exit.

Practicing long leggato phrases with some staccato and vibrato in them is a quick and dirty way to get the job done of gaining greater control.

[laserdudeman]

This is played very delicately with sweet emotion and nice tone. I like it. Thanks for posting.

[jpjdo1212]

the title said mesmerizing classical guitar i think they meant mesmerizingly terrible classical guitar

[danbs07]

hmmmm.....

[62rome]

it was good not mesmerizing.

[redherring2007]

Very nice, but doesn't flow smoothly enough to mesmerize me! Not that I am a pro at classical guitar lol!!

[Ibanezx123]

Time to sleep, yawn!

[xmdgl]

Martha Masters is an amazing teacher. I have had several chances to work with her and she is Wonderwoman. Usually when she is showing technique it tends to get robotic, but she isn't emphasizing the musicality of the piece, just the physical details that go into playing guitar. When she loses herself in her music, it can be easily seen in my experience.

[dnvlgm1]

hmm ok?

[adams77ify]

Great Job!

[haviskam]

She sounds like a newby but is flawless and full of senesation.

[drewerd15]

@daveed793

She is playing a classical guitar, they are much wider than acoustic guitars to allow for more percise fingering.

[Ergodyne187]

I think that fret board is far too wide for her hand

[seth3556r]

i'd do her

[doug35711]

Beautiful!

[Iluvbuckethead1]

How many guitarist does it take to screw in a lightbulb? 5. One to do it and the other four to say how much better they could do it.

[avyanez]

Too much tension. she needs to release with each finger motion. She has not built the relaxation into her playing. this is why it sound mechanical.

[pitasoublaki]

Women Can't play the guitar...its a fact...no feeling at all...She's actually giving others

guitar lessons!!! Unbeleivable !

[guitarsoulbrotha]

@pitasoublaki there's no need to be sexist :( it was played beautifully, slightly mechanical but beautiful you don't need to be so mean :(

[fishfrizbee]

I can't remember which side of her brain is missing lol

[THR33JC]

no feeling very clean

[basenjiguitar]

Es un estudio de carcassi,

It`s a study from Carcassi

[441842]

@basenjiguitar

sabes el nombre del estudio?

[basenjiguitar]

@441842 permiteme, tengo que ir a sacarlo del baùl de los recuerdos....son estudios sencillos, no tienen nombre, en la portada dice, 25 estudios para guitarra opus 60 M. Carcassi Ese estudio en particular que toca, es el No. 24...

[MrArthurd22]

NAME OF THE PIECE PLEASE

[dvmagic]

Wow, such negativity! Remember, this is a "workshop" video. It's intended to teach, not showcase the performer.

[majav15mg]

This sounds soooooooo LAZY. They should play this in a welfare line.

[teamdude6]

seemed like she was just reading sheet music and didnt take the time to actually remember the whole song

[rexasul]

The audio may as well be fucking MIDI. Not saying that's a bad thing, I've heard MIDI files with more expression than this...

[spinner1208]

beep bop boop. I AM A ROBOT.

[yiblon]

robot taking a first lesson

[VincentBrooke1]

No. Emotion. Whatsoever.

[wickedwizardofspeed]

i like it.. and her playing is great too. but not mesmerizing.

[laserdudeman]

This is very sweet sounding and expressive. Thanks for posting. I like it!

[sw3210]

what is this piece? sounds like Bach

[MrSamTheFlowerMan]

She sounds like one of those robot asian kids that... However robot asian kids can be very impressive :)

[flyinmikerian]

i like it,so that means its really good because i am like god when it comes to guitar.i mean it,dont fuck with me or my opinion,shes good.go fuck yourselves

[mrwprod]

It's a beautiful piece... I didn't enjoy the actual playing though. Wouldn't go as far as calling it mesmerizing. But it's a matter of taste I guess.

[JOHNNYG99X]

ok but not mesmerizing I'm afraid.. lacks spirit and looks like she is reading too

[kimiekun1]

tab please

[esgimasd]

This is too static. Good for info regarding hand placement etc but you need to give it passion!

[allmusicpro]

very unmusical

[TheGreatBritishAlex]

@allmusicpro if your saying its atonal its not mr all music pro?

[dezrax]

she can probably play my dick better

[TtEkSoF]

@dezrax lololol!!

[mojoefly]

@dezrax LOL :-)

[mandrilbellaco]

AWESOME!!!! Miss Masters I saw her live in october she plays fucking awesome!!!!! love her!!!! hope to some day take a few classes with her!!!

[dljc1979]

it's boring, sorry, it has nothing in it, if see played like that with a diminished 8-tone scale or some kind of chromaticised augmented scale then she might have something but that is just boring..

[lighteningboy]

Beautiful woman with this kind of talent, and people are bashing her? Please! I'm in love!

[CAZTG]

Looks like she might be sight reading?

[Brainyy297]

Use a guitar properly bitch, this music is shit.

[Forseti6288]

I like the look and sound of this guitar.. What make is it?

[ViperFallenAngel]

well played but it sounded robotic like... Needs more feeling. But still well played.

[vinnothelizard]

no feeling!!

[DarkGuido]

Great!

[Alexpirin]

I think its great. Well done.

[TJU1776]

Some people on here are real assholes. It's a workshop. It's not intended to be a performance. A little decency and respect might carry you a little further in life.

[Ricoshr3d]

It seems as if she's just sight-reading. I do imagine that it'd be more mesmerizing with a more full sound, as if with a bass or just another instrument, but otherwise, it just seems empty. She did a rather good job regardless. Play on!

[WanderingChild999]

BOOOO!

[08freekshow]

yep not mesmerizing but... played as written.

[IamMehooRU]

hahaha so many horny fools defending shitty guitar playing here. we can establish that whenever a girl plays guitar sausagefest ensues.

[iskim86]

that wasn't very mesmerizing. A for effort though.

[Hmnmn]

Come on guys, be nice. The piece may not be everyone's favorite, but I thought she played it very well. I only wish I could play that well.

[stormfox1]

so many jaded retards

[Dzimini]

I don't like music school just because of things like this....

[Greatscott0420]

honestly this is sick, great job, some people dont know music

[MadnessOfMarmots]

mediocre. Not what it's played up to be.

[hatake1993]

I like it....so...it seems to be a not-very-difficult piece for beginners like me =)

[janecroft]

I would fall asleep if I had to practise this piece.

[TigertailzBezerk]

I am sure she is an amazing player BUT this certain piece is absolutely terrible

[RyanvanderSteen]

Fail

[1shin123]

wtf? theres no expression in this piece -.- no feeling of the musik

[GPLguitar]

@1shin123 i know this is why some people that are 100% formally trained are just awful

[kakinoki55]

gggaarrrbbbaaggggeeeeee

[barkmouth]

She ain't no Steve Novachek

[zekeLindgren]

i think this would be beautiful if it was played by someone with better classical dynamics. it sounds like a robot plucking the strings.

[bophead2003]

@zekeLindgren i guess you're just being honest about it all but...do you play guitar? Do you know how much mastery it can take to play? I don't see your fucking video.

[bophead2003]

@zekeLindgren i guess you're just being honest about it all but...do you play guitar? Do you know how much mastery it can take to play? I don't see your f**king video.

[zekeLindgren]

@bophead2003 yes i know how hard mastering an instrument can be. i never said she didnt play it properly, this is just unemotional, emotions goes far beyond the melody. Classical music is beautiful because it doesnt follow a metronome, it doesnt stay at a moderate volume, it slows down and speeds up, screams and whispers. classical musicians put all of their emotion into their instruments, melody plays only a small part. thats the only part she got right. and ya i have videos, check next time?

[opiansage]

@zekeLindgren agreed

[VerlagSpringer]

@zekeLindgren

If I'm not mistaken, the player is Martha Master, winner of GFA competition 2000.

[zekeLindgren]

@VerlagSpringer i dont care. i still dont like this

[salvatorefortu]

che palle!!!!!!!!!!!!

[donottawaguitar]

so nice

[dantheguitarman88]

Its not mesmerizing by any means. jody fisher is mesmerizing and magical. not bad but cmon. lets just be realistic now. play some virtuosic Peganini then title it like that

[Kwakisurpeneku]

...ha, yeah, okay.

[moneyquickeasy]

bee boo bop

[Uvve123]

Robot.

[bgroovy2]

very nice

[JimmyBshaw]

its stoner soothing.

reading the comments, alot of people seem to hate it.

but im stoned off my ass, im really loving this.

great job madam

[MyNameIsErr]

@JimmyBshaw haha me too :D

[VoodooEule]

I like it. :)

[xXTHEDOUCHEBAGXx]

Just goes to show, women ruin everything.

[kakinoki55]

this is shit

[XxDisciple666xX]

i dont get it, when does it get mesmerizing??

[jonathantc08]

whats mesmerizing is how she holds her mouth open

[HBKphiyen]

the thing i like is the guitar!! :))

[BurnElectric]

a lot of videos have misleading titles, nothing new here

[PersianPrince66]

im sorry but this is badly performed

[putzmitt3l]

sounds to me a little chopped. still it's very soothing

[campb91]

Check out Tom Ward - Balalaika....that is mesmerizing classical guitar!

[STINKBUG3]

thats not mesmerizing

[Shubbidubba]

sounds like a japanese robot playing haha... my 12 yr old guitar student can do better haha

[AbeFreshwater]

oh god!!! i must listen to some broderick to get my faith back into the classical guitar!!!!

[sdunsmb]

I didn't know they'd built a robor that plays guitar??

[Zeon11111]

This is mesmerizing?

[iatemylittlepony]

@Zeon11111 im hoping they mean the guitar it self not the song being played. hahaha. 

[juglis]

Try listening to Koyunbaba by carlo domeniconi. That's mesmerizing!

[124sabretooth]

tht looks really easy and ive only been playin for 2 years play soemthig like caprice

[Ohfuckimstupid]

Shes good, but the song isn't really cool at all..

[Cornbreadddd]

no groove. I feel like women get over-credited for playing guitar just cause they're women.

[1blackone]

This song is, quite simply not worthy of her immense talent

[sk1llzftw]

this sucks wtf it made me want to pull my own geetar out and pwn this hoe

[pogi09282805724]

what the hell!! fuck you all haters!! i think shes good!!

[ThisIsCleverUsername]

no offense but after watching flamenco videos for 2 hours this is seems to be boring as hell, and has 0 emotion ;p

[jivananda]

haha just to say this women won the GFA competition in 2000

[guijam94]

well if she is a good guitarist, and her fingering suggests MAYBE... this is a bad way to demonstrate it

[Emmalala123]

Guys, don't be so foolish, she is actually a good guitarist. Her tone is excellent, her notes are all clear and her whole technique is very good. It's silly to call it "mesmerizing" though....

[rish000]

hm it feels like she's playing like a robot..seems like somethings missing.

[Fruscianteistheman]

your slipping in and out of rhythm, I don't know if its intentional or not, just thought i provide some fodder for critiquing.

[jivananda]

@Fruscianteistheman her name is martha masters, shes a fantastic guitarist, check out other videos of her

[jgxcmonkey]

she is a beginner.

[SBW2000]

Great clean expression, it's much harder than it sounds, a tad mechanical but beautiful nonetheless

[deylite2]

hey you idiots lol! it's a she (He's don't wear wedding rings you blind bats!Lol!btw..even without the ring you can clearly SEE it's a woman...just look...stupid lol!!!

[melanieisclever]

He' do wear wedding rings.. but they sure don't wear engagement rings!

[aarongtr180]

Sounds like a beginner playing. No offense.

[RoyElvisBand]

well I gave her 5* stars I thought it was really good

[Dreamdek]

what's the name of this piece?

[elliotboy1233]

im glad this isnt just full of flames, just because a peice is slow or easy dosn't make it easy to play well! good job

[xXPredraGXx]

Its excelent.

Both her technique and the guitar just sounds wonderfull =)

[davidserban]

she is a good guitarist ! well played.

if you think you are superior keep it for yourself don't rub it in their face (: pls . peace.

[F3ARMUFFS]

Why is his left hand's thumb's nail so long? Do you actually use your left thumb for picking? If you do, I did not know this.

[CLASSICBOB4200]

Pretty sure its a she, not a he.

[Overture2152]

no most guitarists don't really care about that nail since it doesn't need to be long or short to play.

[Tonyboy451]

why is his left hand's thumb's nail so long? Well for starters its a she not he

[RK831]

It's beautiful, yes, but not as thrilling as when Yngwie plays it!

[zusp123]

this isn't mesmerizing, it's boring at best

[Magnumscoffeefreek]

i was totally mesmerized... i duno what the hell you guys are talkin about

[Ameretat010]

Nice playing - and I like the tone. But "mesmerizing"? Let's not get ahead of ourselves...

[desotronics]

Yeah look at her hands.. the guy said well the hands look like they are not relaxed at all...... its sturdy. and unmoveable.. dude....

[noir0222]

i wouldn't call it mesmerizing but it was a really good tune

[MrPwuk]

What the heck was wrong with it? I found it pleasant enough.

[sacredplanet1]

The title of this video is incorrect.

But, if you people observe that hand position, it shows someone who can truly play.

It looks like she's demonstrating a lesson to beginners that's all.

Now, can I have her phone number? :)

[deepakagnel]

wats so mezmerisin in this.?

[martin3xx]

sračka

[andreweffinstout]

Haha, mesmerizing? She looks half distraught and like she just gave herself a hemerrhoid.

[Ianguitarsolo]

Open your fucking mind to emotion you motherfucking retard

[Harrysmit3]

You are great man ! I agree with you completely: he's an idiot telling a load of bullshit ! ;-)

[DerVagabundli]

well, that comment sounds pretty emotional^^

[Ianguitarsolo]

yeah its called frustration with stupid comments

[phoenikiss]

Argh!!! Um comentário inapropriado e desrespeitoso!!

[Ballmeyer]

umm whow yeah I am so mesmerized right now.

[DJMedinaz]

It was good but it wasn't anything that would appeal as mezmorizing or amazingly unique an skilled with passion and soul, somewhat generic.

Around 6-7 months of playing guitar when i first started I was about at this level I soppose...but whatever nothing about this was terrible at all, 3 stars.

[backdoorman29]

that was so sweet..

[proudamerican807]

man dont listen to that jimbo fuck , great job !

[soldier3941]

Very well played, jimbobananafan knows nothing.

[jimbobanalbeats]

Nothing special. Check out Koyunbaba.

[thejugglenaut91]

i go to conservatory for classical guitar and this was just freaking boring. Listen to david russell or julian bream for mesmerizing. Masters is crap.

[pochankitty]

Mesmerizing? More like hypnotizing into a sleep, hiyoooo.
