Once Upon a Time in the West (Ennio Morricone)

[manitou2010]

Simply gorgeous! Your interpretation of this song gives me the inspiration to practice more - a LOT more!!!

[cybertronelectronics]

You belong to play music in heaven.

[carrackter]

You are truly an inspiration Sir, keep adding the clips please.

[bloodnokian]

Beautiful.

[d12dozz]

Tony

What mic did you use on this? 

Dave

[troubleclef]

@d12dozz

an AT3035...the current mic i'm using

[realpaimei]

this is the most emotional arrangement for this masterpiece of master Morricone.

As being a guitarist, could you tell me if any tabs are available?

[mam787]

xd listening the police 1:25

[AmmyNoUzume]

Coming from someone who grew up with Ennio and came to love and appreciate him, your cover was incredible and captivating. You honour him beautifully.

[Batumani]

Impressionante. Som limpíssimo ;)

Não teria a partitura ou tabs (preferencialmente), para dividir com a gente?

Um Abraço e bom trabalho!

[TheViralSBK]

Really great. You reach for the most impossible chords! hitting those harmonics to play the melody is really hard. I am trying to arrange it in C with standard tuning, and I play the high melody mostly tapping it with my right hand index finger, but it is tough to get sustain.

[guylevin2000]

Bravo!

[gutobr10]

Wonderful, I have listened it so many times. Your performance is perfect. Please tell me how can I get the tab???

[N4bpp1]

Frankly, wonderful, great all words just not good enough, thank you!

[topolottto]

bravissimo



[georgio2]

I'm a big fan of yours but this must be my favourite . . . amazingly moody.

[darkabelvhench]

Your performance is so clean and clear.I appreciate it so very much....

[trebla7]

magic fingers......great play!

[feeliciano]

I get insane goose-bumps from this, continue with this talent of yours. You are great!

[RamBeuk]

Hello,

this is really a great arrangement for guitar.

Do you have a transcription of the song?

If you did the arrangement, can you write the transcription?

Thank you

[steveg8r1]

Great, great performance of the most astounding piece of music anywhere...the first time i heard it in the mid seventies i couldnt help but weep, and i was just a macho 20 yr old druggie dropout! But even then I couldn't help but appreciate the genius it takes to make a spirit soar. And the way you play makes it even better! Thank you.

[tsuxia1]

[gilallen3]

This is absolutely one of the most beautiful arrangements I have ever heard anyone do on the guitar. I am a huge fan....and totally in awe. You have taken one of my favorite movie soundtracks and adapted it beautifully to the guitar. Thank you for doing this.

[troubleclef]

@gilallen3

thanks for the kind words.

[matthewme23]

[Blackmoa1993]

[michalo2]

absolutely beautifully done!

[caddis]

ever thought of doing a tour? say somewhere in the uk?

[troubleclef]

@caddis

no, not really. but that would be cool touring the UK, for sure.

[49Eleonora]

Amazing, I often listen to this brilliant piece of music. So well played. This makes me quiet .

[MrFlyingPanda]

[thedecagon]

[matiasthomsen]

Great, just great!

[crazykaraoke]

Man, you're a true artist. Bravo.

[troubleclef]

@crazykaraoke

thanks, buddy

[dschonsie]

ennio is smiling

[Talisman09]

Aaaaah, great film taste aswell. You make me smile. : )

[igehring]

BRAVISSIMO

[morrissanford]

Very nice. One minor quibble that has nothing to do with your playing; I've managed to learn several of your arrangements by watching and listening. With the new mic/ camera angle its difficult to see what's going on with the right hand... I'm afraid my ear is not as gifted as yours!... Thanks for all the inspiring work you've posted.

[twinsmm1]

I could just play this over and over. I just did. It just puts me away. BTW, I've watched this vid several times. I just noticed the cop's siren at one point. I thought it was outside of my house at first. Any other memorable event that evening you can share?

[troubleclef]

not that i recollect. :D thanks!

[twinsmm1]

Just to clarify, the siren happens ~1:26. I never heard it using speakers but listening with headphones, I pick it up.

[samuelshepard]

@twinsmm1 ditto about the cop

[robinandthe7hoods]

Super!

[pottypants2112]

Man, you touch me, no I'm not kidding you really do. I was seriously in tears by the end. Bravo!

[changchishih2009]

wonderful play and one of the best recording on youtube ! I learnt another simple arrangement, can you send me the tab?  Love this....

[gerald470]

very touching.....great..*****

[DrFABH]

absolutely marvellous

[claret1970]

Just played this 4 times in a row Tony, the opening just hooks you for the rest of the song, very emotional version. So glad i subscribed to you m8, as i said before, you make the world a better place to live in bravo

[Blacklamass]

Just so nice, thats all.

[5inthehole]

Treble, by any chance, are you a priest?

[troubleclef]

nope. Why do you ask? I can play guitar for your wedding, but I'm not authorized to officiate. :D

[5inthehole]

@troubleclef - I myself play the keyboard so I know how devoted one has to be, especially to play at the level your playing at. I guest a priest because a priest would have a lot of time on his hands to practise....and with your talent I'm surprised your not doing something in the music industry.

[apeng62]

great!! 5*s

[aihoschema]

Fantastic!!!! That is - if I'm not mistaken- Jill McBain's Theme from Once Upon.... (one of my fav movies ever). Please consider making a DVD - just you playing those wonderful songs as you do here on YouTube, so incredibly well transcribed for classical guitar - and played with so much skill and emotion. I admit that I have a weak spot for Genesis tunes played by yourself, but not only. Morricone (and others) are just at the same level IMHO. I would be one of the first to buy that DVD!

[apol7lo]

@aihoschema

Indeed, this was such a great movie. My favorite Western of all time. and the theme here is just so amazing. Original sountrack is so moving. Morricone was and is so great. Love many of his works for Leone Movies. And what a Movie mistro Leone was.

[1865GeneralLee]

Très beau.

Félicitations.

[llanbradach]

Tut.....now I have heard this I'm going yo have to borrow this version from you, I suppose I mean steal it ;-) Brilliant playing Tony, sounds great and everything is there, well worked out, the voice in the film gives me goose bumps.

[Mana90]

AWESOME.

Nothin' else to say.

[000Judge000]

great job..thank you

[Kosowskij]

amazing !

[cavedweller1996]

how many frets does that give access to?

22? 21?

[troubleclef]

20 really with fret #21 not being quite playable

[scottstanton1]

sweet !!

[troubleclef]

thanks for all the comments

[rachelbd]

beautiful. so evocative of the film. looking forward to seeing more from you.

[hanseatus]

Great song well played ,fine ,superbe,deep emotion

[vokildir]

[dylancaine18]

What a moving rendition of this classic. Is there any way you could put together a tab of this for the rest of us?? Would be much appreciated. Thanks,

[maxtoute]

Very nice! Always an inspiration. Thank you.

[pmiura]

Magnífico!! Hope you play more Morricone's songs

[Gospel1]

Bravo, mi hai emozionato

[gallito1010]

I think this is the 30th time I watch this video ! it has a really Mexican Feeling ! but it is from the other West ! haha Greetings !

Jose Garcia

[bbertram3]

Trouble is that a new microphone? The sound quality seems excellent, better than usual, but I'm not sure because it may just be that the song and performance are excellent

[tec498]

I just want to say I've been watching your videos for a long time and this one is my favorite. I've never heard the original and I don't want to because after hearing your version I don't think the original will be able to impress me nearly as much. Thank you for this great song.

[0hmish]

@tec498 Both this and the original theme is beautiful in it's own. You have to hear the theme too.. > watch?v=5j_MT9AcfAc

[prantare]

Awesome feeling and playing... have you hear Shawn Lanes version? Check it out if you haven't.. it's so much feeling in that version it makes you cry every time.

[tedax777]

Nice job :)

[Delmontedel]

This is my favourite melody and you have made it even more magical and special. Thanks - you are a truly gifted artist.

Mike

[fmaggio30]

Merci pour cette découverte.

[baboxe]

Splendide, délicieux, une incitation au voyage !: merci de poster et continuez !!!

Good job Tony

[karch139]

I'm so entertained by all of your music, and as an amateur, i feel like i learn a lot just by watching you play. Thanks.

[kordillera101]

Nice work, I love this song and the movie too.

[Veralucy]

Yes, my friend: 40 graus de calor! sem falar no "apagão" (blackout) que houve aqui no último dia 10 e atingiu 18 Estados brasileiros durante 4 horas! But your precious music sempre "salva, acende e clareia os nossos corações por este mundão de Deus! Bjo!

[mapaste]

molto toccante...bravo

[ToninInTheSubway]

superb ! wonderful ! great emotion !

you're realy the best, as NAUDOPRD in a different way...

[FellunB]

Nice work. One of my very favorite films!

thanks Ennio!

[GuitarMafia94]

Amazing man Good Job <3

[Crampaudio]

Well done, Tony, it's amazing.

Ennio Morricone will surely like it.

A great touch of class how you inserted two harmonics in the melody line

[troubleclef]

thanks.  yeah, i figured that was the only way to get the leap up in the melody right while still keeping the g playing in the bass.

[euth]

another class performance! I do wish that you would put this stuff on disc. I would love to be able to listen to this in my car or wherever

[troubleclef]

thanks. maybe some time.

[Bitomolo]

thank you so much.

wonderful.

[jamhojoe]

another amazing rendition of a classic, bravo troubleclef!!

[troubleclef]
