  • OMG why are you guys so rough on her!!!!?? SHE HAS A BEAUTIFUL VOICE AND SINGS EXCEEDINGLY WELL WITHOUT EVEN THINKING ABOUT THE FACT SHE IS ALSO PLAYING THE GUITAR AT THE SAME TIME! She has done a beautiful job!

    PLEASE TELL HER FROM ME :) :)

  • No mean feat singing and playing that at the same time. Well done. (Better on your own - sorry.)

  • Excelent very nicely done.

  • awesome!!! hahaha! it seems like everyone but me uses a capo for that song......=D

    -Kunai

  • Well done !

  • Lol I personally would not like my guitar teacher making me perform in front of a camera and then have it posted on youtube,

    but overall she did good.

  • Nice job :)

    

  • Beautiful.

  • Excellent job,great playing and singing.

  • nice song and a beautiful singer too.

  • wow, Barney is singing at the background!!!

  • Jack, Your method of uploading students videos is a great idea.

    Bob

  • Yeah, in some ways it's even better than playing before a live audience in terms of honing your skills, because the camera won't lie and doesn't forget!

  • That was just too beautiful! It may have not been flawless, you may not be professional singers but that was what made it so amazingly beautiful, enjoyed it and loved it so much. Really nice work Jack, I like you're voice a lot singing the Canticle, and very well done teaching that girl to play so well, say hi to her from me.

  • And now for something more honest...

    Very nice playing and voice... but, on a constructive note... it seems about a half step or so too high... try moving you capo down towards the nut a little more. - It makes your otherwise beautiful voice slightly sqeaky. Also, your teacher's voice has to go to an unnatural, forced falsetto in order to try to reach the latter parts of the canticle.

    Those aside, very very nice presentation.

  • Points well taken, though we were both having difficulties with allergies at the time, and this was mainly a guitar recital rather than a vocal one. She was still a fairly new guitarist, having only been playing for a few months at the time, so it's forgivable that her tempo dragged just a bit as the picking pattern was a little tricky. I think you are right about the capo, at least in terms of my voice, but I think the key was good for her. We appreciate your constructive critique.

  • @JacksGuitarStudents

    sorry, but as someone who has been playing for decades, this girl had not only been playing for a "few months" at the time of this video. are you trying to prop up your business, or what? Allergies? Give us a break...she did fine, however, your voice was horrific and I doubt sliding the capo down will help.

  • @dirtpoe I have no argument with your opinion of my voice in this video, but I can assure you she had only been playing for, at best. six to eight months when we made this video. She is an exceptionally good student. She was indeed suffering from allergies at the time, and was not particularly happy with the way her voice was sounding, though, like you, I think she sounds fine.

  • @aguyatthebeach u r WRONG!!!!! she did AWSOMELY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! u go critisize somebody ELSE (like someone who needs it!!!) X(

    -Kunai

  • Thumbs up!!!!

  • very nice,keep up the good work,

  • wonderful job

  • pleasant voice u have

  • excellent!

  • beautiful voice!

  • fake...

  • perfect ....

  • Sounds great!

  • Very beautiful!

  • awesome guitar playing and wonderful voice

  • das Spiel ist gut aber der gesang ist aufjedenfall ausbaufähig . Atemtechnik lernen und den kopf nach oben halten dann ist es wesentlich einfacher . der mann und die frau ruig etwas tiefer singen aber es ist ansonsten gut

  • NIce soprano voice. Good guitar finger picking style.

    This is difficult to do, but if you can look into the camera and smile while playing the guitar at the same time, it will give you a more dramatic performance. You get 5 stars. Good job!

  • This is very nice. She has lots of potential.

  • This is a real nice version. Pay my channel a visit for a diferent version.

    peter.

  • Great! 5 stars!

  • Wow that was incredible! And this is one of my favorite Simon/Garfunkle songs.

  • great voice!

  • wow!

  • This R O C K S !!!! Thanks for sharing it...5*

  • Awesome.

  • that is good but she should concentrate on the vocals and let someone else do the guitar. Not that she isn't doing a kick ass job, but that singing is hard and it's a lot deeper than what i realized before I went for my music education degree.

  • Well the reason I am not concentrating on the vocals is because this is for my guitar lesson. I worked for a long time to be able to play this, so that I could record it. I am singing while playing because it is not supposed to be a guitar solo. It would not make for me to sing for my guitar lesson, letting someone else play, but I see where you're coming from.

  • This girl is better every time I hear her. I am really impressed. I wish I could play a guitar that good.
