amazing

Hey Marcos,

I am with you all the way, man. It's a great piece and you're on the way. It's a sleigh ride on the roller coaster of guitar repertoire and fun as well.

I may get brave and post my attempt as well, though I think the laughter starts (maniacally I may add) at about 45 secs into my rendition.

This is Youtube, maybe the world is ready?

Thanks, Francis

are you still working on this piece?

[mom17565]

No. I'm working in other pieces. I have too much music to work, but I'll work on it for sure!

Thanks!

Marcos

that's extremely slow

[zupercookie]

i really liked how you slowed down on the part in C major like on 1:00 :)

[slash0924]

U gotta calm down alittle. U will never learn how to play it if u are impatient. U have to feel what the song means. So, calm down, and u'll nail it one day...

[soniameh]

That is one hard piece to play !! good Job

Thank you Himanshu!

In effect it's very difficult. In fact it is over my possibilities. But I am determined to touch it correctly in a future.

Hey, man you're very good. Being able to play this piece is one of my dreams. But unfortunately it's hard as hell. Anyway - keep playing and you will overcome all of these mistakes about 2:30min and later. I'm sure that you can play it much better, but making a repetition of a 358-bars piece is more than frustrating. Greetings from Poland :-)

[mom17565]

Thank you for your words, and yes, you have the reason. It's a too big bit for me. Maybe one day... I think I'm on the way!, but not still.

Greetings form Spain

What else can I say - even attempting this song is a great challenge. But it's definitely worth the pain of the fingers :-)

El es magnífico y puede ser mas bien.

(Sorry for my terrible Spanish :) )

[mom17565]

THank you for your time.

Marcos

[rob8624]

Well done. It's a very hard piece too play, but you keep going and with more practise it will get better.

[mom17565]

Thank you rob!

Yes, it's a hard piece and for my guitar level it's not appropriate, but I like it very much!!

As i said, keep working on it and it will get better, look forward to more videos.

Hola Marcos no sabia que ya habias subido este primer intento del Usher Waltz, para ser el primero me parece que esta muy bien estoy seguro que con el tiempo lograras mejorarla bastante, solo espero que no pierdas tu sentido del humor que tambien me parece muy bueno te mando un abrazo.

[YoJolina]

Oh my God, Marcos, when I heard those first harmonics and looked at the title I almost couldn't believe it! You are playing the Usher Waltz!!!

This is a piece people play on their exams after having studied on the conservatory for 6 years!

I think if you just keep playing it, it will get much better! Very brave attempt, indeed!

Best,

Jo

[mom17565]

Hey Jo!

Thank you very much for your support!! When some months ago I've listened first time this piece, I've fall in love of Koshkin. This is a part of the result!

Hugs for you and Otto.

Marcos

[mom17565]

[YoJolina]

Ooohh I'm looking forward to that!! A bit kiss for Rosita.
