[AndreasKaesler]

@sleazebee Thanks for your comment, I' honored!

[yumeybaconcutout]

that was amazing! and the most significant thing in my opinion, was your clean tone! perfect

[AndreasKaesler]

@yumeybaconcutout Sorry for the late response and thanks for your comment!

[msutton2006]

what version are you playing? your fingerings look easier than most that I have seen. But then again, It could be your graceful playing. Really enjoyed it..very nice.

[naivhoerenundsehen]

Sehr schön! Tolle Arbeit.

gruß klaus

[toritotuti]

hey! good job!

[AhamBrahman]

Im trying to learn this and i cant figure out what to tune to...are you in standard tuning?

[AndreasKaesler]

@AhamBrahman It is standard tuning except of the lower E string which is tuned down to D.

[GlennValt]

Brilliant. Very good performance.

[AndreasKaesler]

@GlennValt Thank you Glenn!



[magaleecraveiro]

Andreas, linda execução!

Eu, acho o Bach uma maravilha! wonderful performance!

Você foi divino! Thank you!

Maga-Lee :-))

[AndreasKaesler]

Thank you Maga-Lee :)

[imbrial]

Wow. You nailed it. Thank you for sharing :)

[Jimmychris1989]

thanks for thah beauty man... that was awesome...

it was a challenge for you, but seems so easy when you played...

[pacodegarcia]

Beautifully played. I liked the ornamentation on the repeats! the tempo was perfect There was lots of 'aire' in this perfomance!

[gipcarp]

I have the Frank Koonce edition,but it´s tricky to hear how to emphasize,and it goes so fast.Anyway,it`s a solace to listen to,the notes come natural as nature itself .think i´ll try to learn Scarlatti´s "Allegro" instead,though no disciples can ever surpass Bach himself.

[TheSlurgi]

Really well done! Clean, clear, wonderful. Beautifully executed.

[AndreasKaesler]

Thank you! :)

[slash9217]

ive been playing metal and blues guitar for almost two years now, but im really excited about starting classical, great vid!

[AndreasKaesler]

Thank you! You will love it ;)

[jlbonneau]

most excellent playing and fingerings. if you dont mind me asking, do you happen to have the arrangement?

[AndreasKaesler]

Thank you for your comment! I started with a transcription from Heinz Teuchert, but I have changed a lot of details. Unfortunately, nothing is written down.

[caiocollalto]

Fantastico!!! May I ask you something? How did you tune it? It isn't E tuning, is it? I'm asking that considering that this piece was created for the lute.

Thank you.

[AndreasKaesler]

Thanks! It is standard tuning except of the lower E string which is tuned down to D. Originally the composition was written in E flat major.

[vulpecula999]

excellent performance

[AndreasKaesler]

Thanks for your comment!

[AndreasKaesler]

Thank you :)

[timread13]

This is soooo good! And your the sound of your guitar is fantastic!

[AndreasKaesler]

Thanks! It's a Sanchis Carpio, my best guitar :)

[diablolordz]

Wow, amazingly done!!! I must ask, how long have you been playing for?

[AndreasKaesler]

Thank you! I can't remember exactly, maybe 5 or 6 weeks, one or two hours daily.

[melopheas]

grande

[BluStrat22]

Beautifully played....I am attempting this piece, and i hope one day I can play it so smoothly like you! Bravissimo!!

[AndreasKaesler]

Thank you... don't give up! ;)

[randeb5567]

Beautiful!! Greetings from Ohio in the USA!! Tempo is perfect and each note rings out clearly. . .a challenging piece, in deed! Congratulations for mastering this gem!!

[AndreasKaesler]

Thanks a lot and greetings from Germany! :)

[sammu5]

Bravo! You nailed it! Best, sam :-)

[AndreasKaesler]

Thank you Samantha, I'm glad to hear this from such a marvelous guitar player like you!

[giorgiopicker]

Bello!

[sasgeza]

This is real ,,allegro"!!!

I feel happy hearing this, the only sadness is ,,why I can't play this piece"?

[Sklandarkal]

Bravo from Italy

[AndreasKaesler]

Thanks from Germany :)

[Paddymccormick]

Nice.

[pansdimensional]

A tour de force - thanks for upping this.

[AndreasKaesler]

Thank you! To be honest, at first it was a tour de cramp xD

[MaulDicker]

Voices are perfectly balanced. Bravo!

You made it look easy.

[AndreasKaesler]

Thank you, appreciate your comment!

[RicardoV1980]

[senunkan]

Wow. I'm very impressed with the playing. Thanks for sharing!

[60moo]

Andreas, I really enjoyed that - a warm sound that was also very clean.

[akrobandit]

woot, fucking nice played

[Cyrloud]

yes, a difficult piece, but a very good interpretation-congratulation

[julianbream3690]

Excelent

[countfelix]

Nice and clear playing! I also like the ending you tagged on up an octave.Good work in the field.

[palolilo]

Extraordinario. Limpio y bello. Felicitaciones humildemente. Bach Rules!

[AndreasKaesler]

¡muchas gracias!

[FlamencoEstudio]

Smooth chord shifts and beautiful performance! May I inquire about your recording gear?

[AndreasKaesler]

Thank you! I'm using a Tube MP preamp, a Rode NT1-A microphone and a Phase 22 interface. My guitar is a Sanchis Carpio 1F.

[makoemin]

C'est un peu cruel pour les guitaristes peu talentueux tel que moi-même ne trouvez vous pas? ;)

[canonmj]

It is amazing you are not a professional guitarist and play so well. This is one my favorite guitar pieces by Bach. Hopefully one day I can play it.

[Vabejas]

Andreas, this is Bach at it's very best. Respect for your music making!

All the best,

Jasper

[AndreasKaesler]

thanks for watching and for your comment!

[Ritschi2]

Hi Andreas,

wunderbar diese superschwere Stück gespielt. Habe das selbst mal vor 20 Jahren gespielt und ich weiß welche Arbeit das ist dies einzuüben. Ich würde das nicht mehr hinbekommen. Also Respekt und hoffentlich kommt jetzt demnächst auch noch die Fuge :-)

Gruß Jürgen

[AndreasKaesler]

Hallo Jürgen,

danke für deinen Kommentar! Mit der Fuge gehts mir wie dir mit dem Allegro, da muss ich auch erst mal die zwanzig Jahre alte Staubschicht abkratzen ;)

[Vreci]

Mein lieber Schwan, hast du das genial eingespielt !!

Ich übe an dem Stück schon lange, aber jetzt habe ich meinen Meister gehört !

Standing Ovations aus Geboltskirchen und "Hut ab" mein Freund !

liebe Grüße,

wolfgang

[AndreasKaesler]

vielen Dank Wolfgang, dein Kommentar ist mir eine Ehre! Das war aber auch ne harte Nuss, so ein schweres Stück ist mir bislang noch nicht untergekommen.

[mohflamenco]

perfect play i love the music of J.S.bach 5*trars^^

[AndreasKaesler]

Thanks! I love it, too.

[skadborg]

Sounds great and a very fine video

cheers,

Anders

[AndreasKaesler]

thanks! :)

[humbucker5643]

fantastic!!

[AndreasKaesler]

thanks!

[sguitar]

Hi! Super gespielt!! Du spielst professionell oder? 5 Sterne versteht sich ja von selbst!

Liebe Grüße Sarah :-)

[AndreasKaesler]

Hallo Sarah,

herzlichen Dank für deinen Kommentar! Gitarre spielen ist mein Hobby - aber eines, mit dem ich mich schon um die dreißig Jahre auseinander gesetzt habe, und ein Ende ist noch nicht in Sicht :)

Ich habe inzwischen bei dir reingehört, und du spielst wirklich sehr schön! Besonders gefallen mir deine Interpretationen von Peo Kindgrens Stücken.

lg Andreas

[sguitar]

Hi Andreas!! Kein Problem! Danke fürs schöne spielen ;-)

Ui...30 Jahre was für eine Zahl! Hoffentlich, wir möchten noch schöne viele Videos von dir sehn! Ok...nur Hobby aber sag bescheid, wenn du mal ein Konzert gibst! ;-)

Danke fürs vorbei schauen. Freu mich, dass du es magst!

Liebe Grüße Sarah :-)

[AndreasKaesler]

ich werd mein Bestes geben ;)
