[0945rafa]

muy buen sonido y buenisima interpretacion !! viva el talento !! si señor !!

[classical9034]

That is a Fleta guitar.

Very well played !

[marioalexisfer]

me gusta por que se mueve y de esa forma interpreta mejor

[rsp196607]

Hot.

Just add some Segovia-style body thumping, and you'll be set.

[harry811]

She plays very well. I am enjoying her playing and beauty at the sametime.

[arfurlife]

wow.what a version. Truly brilliant. I loved it.

[lionslair7]

Stunning or what?  Her playing's not bad either

[weskoki]

Is that a Kono??

[guitarpicka1]

What a beautiful...Visual and Audio...Treat...I just Love Her !!

[MrGuitarpete]

one of the greatest players in our days, chapeau

[MrGuitarpete]

one of the greatest players in our days - chapeau !

[elpergola]

I am from Spain and i am amazed how can a chinese woman fully catched the spirit of spaniards playing the way she does....My deepest admiration to this performer

[udnil]

Muito bom

[rawrgDX]

Awesome piece! The room trips me out too. First I think she's in a living room then it pans out into to like giant cool colored hall! Weird place to play Albeniz! XD

[mothman84]

For an Asian she plays with an incredible passion, there's not just the usual commitment to a polished technique and absolute precision, but an extraordinary amount of energy and musicality as well. Without a doubt one of the best performances I've ever heard!! Truly great!

[Hektor88]

@mothman84 For an Asian? Are you implying that Asians don't have passion as a general rule or something? I realize you probably don't have that kind of belief, but be careful how you phrase things.

[mothman84]

@Hektor88 I will always need to work on my English, but you might want to become a more careful reader yourself. "As a general rule", Asians are FIRST AND FOREMOST (!) infallible machines; that's certainly the MAIN - not the only - thing that they USUALLY - not always - convey: dedication to technical excellence. This particular artist seems to go beyond that. Now, I see no need to construe this as an attack on Asian people. Can you measure passion?! Let us all improve ourselves, shall we?

[archie831531]

amazing



[Theblueboykid]

Is to smooth!! Espanga isn't a marsh mellow. The whole temperament is missing

but she can play like a God.

[warlockig]

I can't think of a time I have listened to an interpretation of a piece, and thought it was just perfect. If i were to play this, I would want to do it exactly this way. This is pure genius.

[HongwareeChannel]

Damn, this woman screwed it again. She plays the best interpretation I've ever heard of Romance, however, she plays too fast this piece and also Asturias. I love this girl anyway...

[throwscats]

Oooo, very nice. Got goosebumps.

[dkgkmd4ever]

for me, the greatest performance of this piece

also an answer for those who believe that asian guitarists are playing like machins-very fast but without emosion.

her playing is full of colours and energy

[DriekvdStam]

5 stupid people have no eyes.

[D0ug91]

@DriekvdStam They haven't ears, eyes don't add nor detract from the perfection in her performances.

[DriekvdStam]

@D0ug91 Then just say 'they have no brain'

[D0ug91]

@DriekvdStam :D

[Horrocruxe90]

Very nice !!!! 

[ironmonger100]

Her tone is beautiful and the performance is brilliant. I love this interpretation, it has just the right amount of Spanish 'flair' I think, not too much or too little. Maybe this version will become the difinitive for advanced Classical guitar students now, I'd say it deserves to.

[Skinoirojo]

One of the greatest performance on record I´ve ever heard.

[basams]

She's gotta be one of the best classical guitarists alive today. Wow.

[bgoodwin91006]

@Soulfree2008

I have to disagree. This is, after all, a Spanish piece and Xuefei plays it with an an uncanny Spanish flare. There is a fire and love of life in her style.

[Benj888]

Love asian girls' love their classical style!

[datonaz]

Very nice!

[uchicha666]

I wat asian girfriend !!!

[VLombardi01]

Very nice! Very talented!

[kei19690113]

Very very nice!! This is a video of a very good feeling. (TS)

[arturockable]

La mejor version es la de John Williams

[scalabration]

@arturockable

True.

[ByteSchubser]

Thats not fair, why can't I play just 1/100 that good like her.

My congratulations

[Papeeloo01]

@ByteSchubser I understand your frustration and and share it.

[galinagitika]

She plays just great! Such talanted girl!

[MrGuitarpete]

what a great player she is - one of the best contemporary artists on the classical guitar. chapeau !

[chuck00999]

If you have nothing nice to say.... shhhhhhh. Some of us are just listneing... not nit-picking.

[s2p3r]

chinese killer pandas: xuefei yang, wang yameng, li jie, su meng, chen shanshan, with their master chen zhi

killer bear: ana vidovic "ana bear"

godzilla/gojira: kaori muraji

[yuepon13]

Segovia seems to give more feeling to the piece than she does but still a great interpetation

[Alpha7000]

Best rendering of Sevilla so far.

Can anyone write me the notes she plays at 1:06 - 1:10 please?

I have been playing it and something just doesn't sound right.

[ClassicalGas91]

My favourite version, although Bream's is excellent too.

[artistikidea]

non hai capito nulla della musica per vari motivi. primo fra tutti il video è artefatto!! CI hai registrato sopra

[summonshire]

Aye, I agree with the above, very smooth indeed. But, is this John Williams' version? Because I remember his version has many strums.

[carefreemusic]

this version is different from JW... she didn strum all the main melody chords...

[YamahaSLG120NW]

Superbe !

Je jette ma guitare...

[melomane49]

@YamahaSLG120NW

Je comprends parfaitement votre sentiment.

J'avais eu la meme réaction il y a longtemps après avoir entendu un organiste jouer...

[maxhiner699]

This is the smoothest version.

[johnandrewhall]

Great playing, great piece, so fluent and great dress!

[Ole6Fingers]

This is how you make classical cool. nice technique
