[TRG177]

There came a time when the heavens parted, and the righteous hand of god cast over the earth to find a man to play guitar.

I cannot stress how mad your skills are.

[Luthval]

@TRG177

Many players are much better than I am.

And I guess god may better try to end wars than to spend time about guitar...

Anyway, thanks for the kind words !

Val

[IAmMediocreAtBest]

nice even playing it on a guitar from the right era

[november191968]

you're amazing!you made the sound come so naturally and seemingly easy.But I know that what you do is of great difficulty.

[Luthval]

@november191968

No this is not so difficult. I only play easy pieces on the guitar (but much more difficult on the lute)

[Blackmore1987]

Bravo

[Luthval]

@Blackmore1987

Thank you ;-)

Val

[Ukucafe]

C'était très joli. C'est quand même la classe de jouer sur cet instrument.. Tu as beaucoup de chance!

[Luthval]

@Ukucafe

Oui je reconnais que j'ai de la chance... surtout d'en avoir une deuxième aussi jolie ;-) (voir dernière vidéo)

[99999999999999994041]

Est-ce que Carulli jouait sur le même modèle que le votre?

[Luthval]

@99999999999999994041

Peut être une guitare très proche, celle ci est exactement de la période de Carulli.

;-)

Val

[ofirariel]

That's awesome. awesome playing, awesome guitar and awesome piece.

thanks for this video =)

[Luthval]

@ofirariel

Thanks a lot ;(-)

Val

[DavetheIV]

Hi Val, I have posted a previous message saying I was learning this piece. Having now developed it a little am now wondering do you conciously make bass note stops throughout? The score indicates, in most cases, a one note beat, should stops be used to hold this true to value? Cheers...Dave.

[Luthval]

On a modern guitar, with high tension strings and nail playing, you should stop as notes rings loud and long, but here with an old guitar, low tension strings and no nails I don't do it.

;-)

Val

[DavetheIV]

Appreciate your comment, thanks.

[jpfloridense]

Excelenteee, muy buena ejecucion!

[Luthval]

Thanks ;-)

Val

[minhthangub]

Many guitarist play with the p finger outside the hand. but this guitarist play with the p finger inside the hand. what's the difference?

[Luthval]

I'm first a lutenist, and the right hand technic I'm using is lute technic, sometimes I'm playing a little bit of guitar for my pleasure, but I didn't change my technic. That's all.

My opinion : music is important, technic is only a tool. ;-)

Val

[metalbloodshed]

That guitar is beautiful, great playing too man.

[Luthval]

Thanks a lot

[Predator158]

Very nice play.I play guitar.i Play this for exam.;-]

[Luthval]

Best whishes !

[kelborgui]

Congratulations.

[Luthval]

Thanks a lot !

Val

[Predator158]

Good game

[UkeVal]

Thanks a lot ;-)

Val

[myguitarbuzz]

Is it harder to play a lute or a guitar?

I would like to play lute but learning guitar at the moment

[Luthval]

Lute is a little bit harder because of double strings. But if you play guitar you can also play lute.

V.

[Supercoolguy1251]

Hey man bein watching your stuff for a School project.... love it all. Your great musician :D

[Luthval]

Thanks ;-)

Val

[robicool]

Does that guitar have nylon or gut strings? Lovely performance!

[Luthval]

Thanks !

strings are Aquila Nylgut (nylon sounding as gut...)

V.

[AnJT91]

ich kenns bisschen anders...kanns aber auch;)

[Luthval]

thanks

V.

[opsgd]

es macht viel spass dieses lied zu spielen

[Luthval]

Ya ;-)

V.

[offordjen]

This is really lovely. You have an interesting right-hand technique - it's almost as if you pluck the strings from underneath - is this a more period/authentic way playing?

[Luthval]

My technic is lute technic (as I'm first a lutenist...) Playing guitar is just for fun...

But perhaps some people at the pre romantic period could have play like this, who knows...

Val

[DavetheIV]

Nice playing luthval, I'm just working this piece myself and now have a target example to aim at. Thanks!

[Luthval]

Thanks ;-) Have fun with it !

Regards

val

[violettesmile]

[richardcpotvin]

Vraiment très beau

Merci Ferdinando

[Luthval]

Oui Ferdinando Carulli était un grand compositeur, hélas dédaigné de nos jours.

Valéry

[wildcatdry]

Bonjour!

Je ne connaissais pas cette pièce, c'est très beau et la guitare sonne merveilleusement bien! Le son est très doux. Utilisez-vous des cordes de guitare classique "standard" ?

[Luthval]

Bonjour, merci du commentaire.

Les cordes basses sont des Savarez carte blanche (faible tension) et les aigues des Nylgut Aquila (imitation du boyau). Comme je joue sans ongles je préfère les basses tension.

Cordialement

Valéry

[luteguitar]

I studied this piece in the carulli's method

#1 , 2 years ago .......I hated the 0:48 - 0:56 part

[Luthval]

Hi,

why do you hate this section ? difficult to play ?

The tune is nice anyway ;-)

Regards,

Val

[luteguitar]

yes because in the fingering was i-m-i-m-i-m-i-m on the same string while the other fingers work, My master wanted that fingering ,but m-m-m-m-m-m or i-i-i-i-i-i was easier for me.

I like the tune ,only the fingering was bad :)

[skadborg]

Hi Val

Another great Carulli, thank for sharing

Regards,

Anders

[Luthval]

Thanks Anders !

Best thougth and good lute (and guitar) playing !

Val

[Roselyne18]

Merci beaucoup Valéry pour ce superbe "rondo" tout ensoleillé que j'aime beaucoup !

Bien amicalement, Rosy.

[Luthval]

Bonsoir Rosy, merci de passer m'écouter ;-)

Amitiés,

Valéry

[cjwaywell]

Such a joy to listen to 5 Stars

[Luthval]

Thanks a lot ;-)

Val (joyful to play too...)

Rondo, Rondeau : principe structurel basé sur une alternance de couplets (ou reprises) - dont la musique diffère à chaque fois - et de refrains généralement invariés (dits rondeau) selon le schéma abacada.

Abracadabra ! Encore une superbe interprétation de ta part de ce beau "Rondo", cher Valéry ! Merci beaucoup,

Roger

[Luthval]

Et l'on finit par faire des ronds dans l'eau ?

Amicalement,

Valéry

[DuoContinuo]

Hi Valéry,

an exemplary interpretation again...

remembers the famous Capriccio C-Major ;-))) ...

cordial greatings - Siegfried

[Luthval]

Hello Siegfried !
