Sergio Altamura - Mr Art Valnades

[ZOMBIELANDakaUSA]

this guy(Sergio) is great, love his passion...great inspiration

[Xbs12]

u look soo much like yanni O_o

[ChuckNorris5011]

Anyone have the tab for this? Is it hard?

[joeymcme]

@ChuckNorris5011 Dunno if they have it, but Candyrat often sells sheet music/tabs for their artists' music. You should check it out!

[IvanBorcin]

so this is really something... pure beauty, refined art. one of the masterpieces that remains in heart for the rest of life

[GarretsShadow]

Does anyone know for definate the tuning of this piece? I am considering purchasing the score, but don't want buy it and find that it's in too crazy a tuning :S

[JacoTheSkunk]

@GarretsShadow I honestly don't know, but it sounds like pretty straight up E-minor to me. I imagine it's just standard 12-string tuning: EeAaDdGgbbee.

[sofabed19]

i always read this as 'mr art vandelay'

[7Wolfmoon]

I do not find any words would to express this how I feel when I listening to this... this is amaziong...

[L7weinie]

this is my favourite song of all time. You kick some seriouse ass dude. People need to know who you are. Your music eases a sorry day.

[nancyl2]

@L7weinie I agree 100% with your comment. He is magnificent and having special Being share this gem with you makes it even more splendid. Yep. May your day be bright als L7weinie Sool S/n Love to know how you chose that. :-))) Namaste'

[Armyd00d]

Percussion has no room in this song

[TheAbbanddonn]

Now i would believe if the NASA tells me that why are no longer alone in the universe.

[HoreaPauna]

tuning is C#F#BF#BbB 

[GarretsShadow]

For an awesome listening experience, type into google "rainy mood" go on the first link and then put this song on

It's actually immense

[shaldana]

@GarretsShadow

Done. Tried it. Excellent suggestion.

[tasslebear82]

@GarretsShadow I've had that rainy mood window open since i saw ur comment, and it actually makes every tune more enjoyable to listen to... like it says; "rain makes everything better" :) thanks for suggesting it!!

[BigCanOfBeans]

@tasslebear82 I'm sorry to break it to you and anyone else who read that, but if you left a sandwich out in the rain...

[Dkibjs]

@BigCanOfBeans i left a cup of water out in the rain once...

[TomDodsonMusic]

@GarretsShadow So good!

[Teapartyla]

@GarretsShadow Yeah, that's cool, very cool. Going to bed now with the replay on.

[Ev1on]

This reminds me on the age of cresaders ! ! ! casstles ad that stuff . . . u got a new fan here sir . . .

[Armyd00d]

The 12-string really sets this song off... Beautiful composition my friend! Candyrat's whole channel is a guitarist's dream/inspiration.

[TomDodsonMusic]

Jesus christ, I cannot stop listening to this. Such a gorgeous and full sound! I think i need to handcuff my hands behind the chair or i'm going to be playing it again and again for eternity :/

[TomDodsonMusic]

Wish I'd found this guy years ago when i also discoved andy, antoine, craig and the like!

[Ev1on]

u sir got a new FAN > > >

[dorillo765]

Sergio Altamura is god.... and you guys haven't realized yet...

[slask25]

Candyrat, where all the guitar gods live.

[AGirlAndHerDreams]

Sergio is by far the BEST guitarist i've ever had the pleasure of listening to.

[Teapartyla]

I listen to this almost everyday. My only sanity in the world. LOL

[NolanAmon]

Sergio, your music is able to evoke new emotions in me each time I listen to it :) Thank you for sharing your amazing gift!

[CheIseaSmiIe]

Absolutely the best Musician on this channel (if you ask me) what amazing stuff he writes. I never get tired of his songs.

[moonunitenar]

damn, I hope they make a transcription for this soon!

[nocturchaos]

How is it possible?!

This is Impossible!

What´s this pressure?

IMPRESSIVE!!!

Incredible...

So great!

[alanofawesome]

.... I NEED A NEW SET OF STRING FOR MY MARTIN 12... I want to sound at least 1% as good.

[JulieStreet91]

Wow! Soul is just burning through!<3

[sachary]

if you hear this song with your run of the mill laptop speakers, the reverb sounds overpowering especially at certain buildup points--at least mine did. I'm glad i gave a listen with some good speakers.

[InvisiD01]

Why would someone dislike this? Maybe they dislike the fact that sergio isnt playing infront of them right now.

[supermanny73]

This song is so beautiful and tragic at the same time. Like a woman giving birth, or the loss of a loved one.

The mental images this song provokes are limitless. A song that can do that is simply magical.

[GabrielUnruh]

People who dislike this video does not know what music is

[ves4o92]

there's a pain..

[a2ndr8ctzn]

these songs like this just play out a scene in my head like a movie. this one paints a sad picture. full of hurt and sadness.

[Usgmusteret]

this is the saddest melody I've ever heard!

she is so beautiful

[MetallicaInMyHead]

Why is this video only showing my views ?

[whouston33wh]

Sergio, your latest CD is one of the best fingerstyle albums I've heard in a long long time. Can't wait to buy it!

[shmoolikp]

two people are - no... it must be some kind of a bug.

[anyazzzzz]

to make every note sound distinctive and pure.

[KofC666]

two people like eminem...

[arishegg]

Not even the artistic genius of Sergio Altamura can purify the Youtube Dislike Trolls... Favorite Candyrat Artist. He writest stuff I can't even comprehend

[Xacutara147]

where can i download the mp3 version, so beautiful <3

[mungogubbins]

Altamura's pieces stand apart from so many of the other candyrat guitarists as they are true works of art, rather than flashy shows of virtuosity. This composition is particularly beautiful.

[TheLegendaryLoboSolo]

As soon as anyone says anything about no dislikes, someone always goes and ruins it by disliking the video. Solution? Stop talking about likes and dislikes people.

[LukasVideosify]

That sounds absolutely great and it's even not so difficult that I couldn't try playing it myself... (:

5/5!

[DevilishKeiko]

This gives me Shivers everytime I hear it.

[IlCavaliereIrlandese]

che meraviglia

[Rickardius]

Amazing!

Candyrat is by far the best channel I've subscribed to.

[terranborn56]

@Rickardius I feel the same way.

[terranborn56]

I like this album enough to pay for it. What else can I say. Wonderful. 

[4stringenius]

Did anyone else read this as "Mr. Art Vandeles". I thought Sergio here was a huge Seinfeld fan.

[papernicolas3]

@4stringenius the seinfeld one was called vandelay.

[fluffyrofl]

One of those rare songs that could make a grown man cry in it's beauty.

[TheJuliusJT]

Wonder if he works by scales etc. or if it's all by ear. nevertheless, i'm in awe. Beautiful!

[EvCrock]

Should work it's way into Mass Effect 3 somehow...

[TehKixu]

Somehow it sounds like sci-fi medieval music. Great sounds.

[diarsse]

Visit the channel of MrDarkadia, he make nice videos ;D ( And huh your video too is full nice )

[Phipification]

some kind of sensible the way you play this piece. makes me think about solving all my problems i got in my everyday life ! :D

[FastWieJesus]

I will def. have to buy the tab...

[davidkurka1]

great

[toptreeman]

yeeees been waitin 4 a new tune from this guy!!

[WhiteOuttFails]

This + Rainymood = Awesome.

[AllthatRemains311]

Mel Gibson plays a mean 12 string

[ElectricTurkey1]

What the...I don't even...

[TheBeTrax]

it doesn´t matter if theres 1000 likes or 1000 dislikes ! he is an artist with heart and soul and i love his music and how he plays

[MrFranciscoFidalgo]

Is this standard tuning ?

[xanthofficial]

@MrFranciscoFidalgo no, it's C# something trying to figure it out but its a bitch

[Xacutara147]

to the disliker: u jelly?

[suthorlando]

This is an immaculately conceived composition. The range, volume, depth, rhythm is just incredible.

[Spencerianism]

The album is $9.95 on CandyRat's site, but $8.99 on Amazon.com.

[raoooody]

that's what i could a Spirit Music .. <3

[guit4rdreams]

1 people tried to change the strings of a 12strings guitar

[lalablablaification]

the dislike was probably on accident seriously guys there pretty close

[Chri22i]

Who's the little Kiddy, who thought it's funny to give one dislike just because their isn't one.

[HerreraAudio]

One dislike...the world no longer makes sense.

[Richgoddamnit]

@HerreraAudio Please stop making comments like this. This motivates people to dislike videos, cause they get people like you to react to it.

[HerreraAudio]

@Richgoddamnit Understood my friend, though I did intend for this comment to be humorous, but perhaps that wasn't clear enough. Even so, let's not expand on the issue, this is a beautiful piece of music regardless, I think we can all agree on that =)

[LarryLynx]

@HerreraAudio Every hero has an arch enemy!

[jcz1996]

@HerreraAudio Three dislikes... Seems like it's just some mindless Cerberus, nothing to worry about.

[sommervilleTRS117]

@HerreraAudio there is now four...the universe imploded from opinionated people D:

[bounceeer]

@HerreraAudio 5 deaf dudes from mountains watched this and were like, WTF he does with that wooden tennis bat??!

[musicprodigymac1]

Really? One dislike? Eff them. This is unbelievably gorgeous.

[4514rockstar]

amazing man its goin in my favorets 

[meshuggahstringer]

absolutely beautiful

[MildonLanhorn]

This is the most powerful, emotional song I have ever heard.. And I'm taking in to consideration ALL types of music... Unbelievable piece

[Jajja3]

This is so beutiful that no one can dislike it

[Akhin]

This guy is fucking great

[twizzlers86]

Simply outstanding...



[happyman35]

HAPPYMAN35 <----- (mouth wide open)

[LPSGRGES]

I think my favoutie thing about Sergio is the way he portrays his passion and soul for his music. There aren't any silly antics, you just see the emotion on his face. The way he feels it. It's beatiful to watch. :)

[maciekwlkp]

For the first time music touched me so deep inside..

[vgls1981]

I agree...It kinda sounds like Metallica...

Great Melody

[bigdawgandrewm]

this could easily be turned into a metallica-esque metal song, and it would sound AMAZING!

[AdeptAlbatross]

Wow!

[McGrottomaster]

I like this! I mean I REALLY like it!

[homelessken]

When the craftsman creates the extension of the musical geniouse...the effect is spiritual...OMG I'm in love!

[lazarushf]

I love it!

I don't have a problem with that, but it also reminds me of Metallica - Nothing Else Matters, am I the only one?

[homelessken]

@lazarushf Sir no diss respect intended but...Metallica? Really....I may not spell well but I heard nothing resembling Metallica in this piece...

[maesrtk]

@homelessken

I guarantee its just because of the twelve string's harmonies

[xmalanicx]

@lazarushf I thought the same

[GarretsShadow]

That final chord was so powerful....

[GarretsShadow]

Does anyone know if the title is an allusion to something or someone?...

[kinexia]

can´t stop

[unibomber111]

you spelt Art Vandelay wrong

[Ryoku1989]

@unibomber111 Nice. lol

[stopiccot111]

Я тащусь! =))

[shinshikamaru]

This guy is my Hero!

[Tarasepp]

Sergio is a phenomenal guitar player. I really love the songs I've heard from him.

This is no exception. Thanks for the wonderful music Sergio and Candyrat records

[masicklazik]

[Stealthbwear56]

[masicklazik]

@Stealthbwear56 maybe exilir 0.12 or 0.13, but dont put too much stress on your guitar! :o heavier guage, more chances of breaking strings! ;) i use 0.11 ! they last me about 100 tunings, like i un tune it and re tune it 10 times a day, they dont break ! (on my cheaper guitar)

[Stealthbwear56]

[xjamesxreedx]

This makes me wanna get a Baritone 12 string so much!

[GayForJC]

aka Mel Gibson



[jabrookesq]

I love when this man puts down his bows, CDs, e-bows, copper rings, heavy effects processing and pre-recorded sound events and just holds his guitar and plays. Like Dancing Trees, this song is the musical expression of the human soul, and has instantly joined the ranks of my favorite acoustic pieces. His melodies are haunting yet charming, and dig right to the heart of me. Bravo!

[ColdGrass87]

@jabrookesq cant really put it better :)

[lesterpolfusrocka]

definetly my favourit acousticguitarist.

im driftung into another world



[K1LL14N]

I love how the lighting is done in this video.. it really captures the mood of the fantastic music

[TomDodsonMusic]

Incredible, another beautiful piece of music from the candyrat artists.

[moqo]

beautiful song...will have to come back to it

[tomorrowsmusicblog]

there should be more solo acoustic guitar albums, I love this.

[TomoTheGuitarMan]

The 12 string guitar <3

[redmtlwolf]

This song made me think on many things, and one was: what means rpoland?

[Gitarroxiss]

@redmtlwolf Rob Poland, you can find an interview if you type in his name in Google. He's the founder of CandyRat!

[ColdGrass87]

Sergio! i need a new keyboard... during the song I just kept drooling on it ...thx alot. btw your playing is mezmerizing

[CheIseaSmiIe]

Amazing as usual. Favourite artist on Candyrat.

[LedZeppelinPage]

Favorited within the first 5 seconds

[Paulcanplayguitar]

soulful song. but what does the name mean?

[ncastle4]

I imagined a metal version of this in my head........just as emotionally engaging.

[jawajack002]

@DouglasRCC you fail at hearing also

[K1LL14N]

He makes a twelve string sound so mesmerizing... when usually I find 12 string just sound like plain folk kinda music (no offence)

[Spyder8477]

once again another truly gifted piece from Sergio

[thedaver8]

this totally belongs in Dracula's castle

[felipecei]

please look, is the soul playing the guitar...

[runeskypex]

@felipecei please look, is the sissy fagot typing the comment

[wehavebecome1]

@runeskypex i believed that people like you wouldn't even bother listening to pieces like this, let alone commenting their ignorant bullshit

[merrycenci]

@runeskypex ... pauvre petit con euh! pardon, GROS con!

[merrycenci]

@merrycenci con = asshole (for translation)

[openmy3rdeye]

No dislikes. Let's keep it that way.

[jdeerfixer]

Wow ! just damn beautiful !!

[maaiir]

His music always make me think about my life and all around me.

[TheLolthazun]

Another absolutely amazing song....

[Th3D4v1d]
