(Maurice Ravel) Bolero - Sungha Jung

[kleptoklepac]

Guitar playing lvl: Asian.

[lucasfmfeit]

This kid will get laid every single day when he grows up. Freacking asians

[DrJoshification]

This song reminds me cooking as a MAN!

[ymelfilm]

vaze, excellent!!!!

[TurKiiShhStyle]

IT'S PERFECT !!!!!!! <3

[ShiroiJime]

heey... so cool... OMG

[keilscave]

This is the new John Williams.fantastic little bud

[TheMarcosqui]

el niño seco.

[synxfirefox]

ahhhh... classical!

[gutaobm]

simplismente sensacional o talento desse rapaz, com certeza um desses foras de serie, ele faz parecer facil .

[fernandomullen]

Deus não dá asas a cobras...

[ohyeahbaby2u]

Ravel really didn't like this particular composition, and oh the irony, it became his most famous piece. If he'd heard Sungha play it, I bet he'd have loved it! Good Job, SJ!

[LesleeTussa]

Omg I think I'm in love with his music! *.*

[misdrevenous]

Wow. My jaw just dropped. I am so amazed O.O

[Xogroroth666]

People commenting this video in negative way are simply insane twatts. This is an amazing performance, very powerful. End.

[tahitibreeze1]

beautiful guitar, beautiful song.......

[anime4ever86]

i have the weirdest feeling that this was used in some digimon episodes

[SharonGuitar500]

@anime4ever86: You're right, it was!

[Frucade2703]

@anime4ever86 Ja, stimmt :-)

[REYIXXX]

@anime4ever86 Yes it was in the episode when TK goes to France to see his gramps, this was during chasing or fight with another digimon, its a mastepiece.

[MikeDMinceu]

@anime4ever86 yea, so much of digimon episodes use this song and that's great ^^

[kleptoklepac]

@anime4ever86 Indeed it was.

[Haiassai]

This is brilliant! The way Sungha manages to get many of the colors and voices in through one instrument is fantastic.

[zealotbr]

sunda! you are great!

[verdict1105]

:D very nice

[stevecthomas1]

Clapton, Segovia, Santana, I believe would love this clip !

[pokermen884]

The God of Gitarre

[luicitoxfull]

¡No hay palabras para este chico!

[jorgborb]

I bet sungha likes digimon xD

[moriluk]

really didn't think this would work on solo classical guitar. But it does. Very impressive!

[daniellehendrix1]

@QueenMoor999 lol really mama

[QueenMoor999]

I am without speech, just tears and smiles. Do that..............

[FelidaTheG33k]

Absolutely brilliant. I was sceptical at first, wondering how anyone could bring the steady rise up to the final into this piece with just a single guitar, while the original does it by adding more and more instruments, but Sungha Jung played this out perfectly. I'm amazed. This is true talent.

[muffystjohn86]

WOW!!!! Great Job :)

[DopeyCatfish]

to all the racists who say that his talent stems from him being asian, GTFO. yeah, he's korean and plays brilliantly. but so were the EUROPEAN composers of the classical songs.

[charliep3]

I bet I've posted half a dozen times on this video. An inspired arrangement, epic playing. There are more videos after this of Sunga playing this and he hasn't surpassed this performance.

[nordine98]

great!!!! you are the best that i have ever seen on you tube!!!congratulations you are very talented!!! bravo!!!!

[kaeliv10]

!qué talento y qué pureza de sonido!! Este descubrimiento del maestro Sungha Jung hizo mi semana más feliz!! :)

[namimi12]

Perfect ;)

[SuperShadypanda]

veryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy­yyyyyyyyyyy goooooooooooood

[Vesivian]

He should try paganini 24 carpice

[Dolmen254]

@Vesivian You should learn to spell.

[chemicalsweet13]

outstanding talent! that was awesomely done. bravo! btw Korean specifically. 

[nubenta1]

Beautiful, you are great!!!! Congratulations

[ralphilonia]

Where is the 'Adore' botton?

[ElevenDestinys]

Ho. Lee. Crap. That was sooooooo amazing. This kid totally exceeded my expectations of how this piece could be played on a single guitar. Bravo.

[CoffeeJunkDeLuxe]

Dickheads should STFU and listen to the music, they won't find greater talent on YouTube.

[solispauwels]

You are my hero!

[Idontsing]

Excellent !

[DeathLordFhyeg]

Great :)

[chokedachicken]

Outstanding! ! ! Great job kid!

[gigimoss]

it sounds like orchestra... beautiful.

[Ceesaurus]

53 dipheads who don't recognise talent, epic play from this boy :)

[TwooMax]

Really good

[zobly]

i hate you :| ;D

[NFL9475]

Brilliant! thanks for those 5 minutes of real pleasure! ;-)

[Angieamster]

Genius!



[Angieamster]

Genius!



[DUMYMAIDEN96]

53 people leave me speechless. How, on Earth, could you dislike this video?

[Pocafiamma]

I proud of you are Korean.

[laughtolive1]

Fantastic, you are really talented, hope you take it with humility.

[bizzweed]

And how on earth did he do that with just one guitar, when ravel used an orchestra of 79 people!

[bizzweed]

JESUS CHRIST!

I'm shocked, what a talent!

He should be on britains got talent instead of stupid people with none ie stavros flatly!

[serlobo1]

Divino...

[plaviprozor]

friggin incredible!!!!

[gffermari]

i don't know who plays better. The one who plays guitar or the other playing the bass.

[hariprasada]

acaso hay algo que los asiaticos hagan mal?????

el mundo es de ellos.

[procspec]

Офигенно, что еще сказать. Это талант от Б-га, а не от азиатов, русских, англиских, итд, конечно. И вообще, хватит завидовать таланту, ребята. Нужно в себе талант развивать.)

[roosje48]

Amazing!!! I just can believe that this kid can play Ravel's Bolero!!

Wow goose bumps all over me!!!

Your wonderfull!!!

[jp622100]

OMG ! Wonderful !

[Sk8ForAllMyLife]

I think it's very important where it came from. It would be intresting thinking on how art and passion for music is created in a society where children are pushed to do things like these! It's incredible how a strict society like japanese, korean and chinese work on children. I don't think it's something positive. In those societies are other elements missing. Sorry for my bad english

[sparkeye67]

@Sk8ForAllMyLife

I find it ironic that you would apologize for your bad English but not your sterotypical, racist view that all Pacific Asian parents push their children to play music. You not only show your ignorance but your prejudices as well. Unless you have proof that Sungha's parents "pushed" him to do music, you should keep your racist views to yourself. Hmm...on the other hand, maybe you're just jealous that he's talented and you're...well...NOT.

[Sk8ForAllMyLife]

@sparkeye67 It's not racism. Asian culture has actually a diferent way to raise children. Check out the book Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother.

As I'm saying, i'm not racist, it's just what it is. The writer of the book raised their children without tv or computer, insulting them when they made mistakes and forcing, yes, pushing them to play violin and piano 4 hs every day

[fairlane900]

Thank you Sungha...I liked it very much...your a good boy and I'm sure your mother and Father are very proud of you too. keep up the good work

[gmgaleazzi]

He's not just Asian, he's Korean!

[DorienDiamond]

A star is born!!

[AlbieStarr]

In Israel this music is famous for being in a series of chocolate-milk commercials.. Nice to see some culture around here, too.

[nicksgift]

@foxygranpa6 I understand you, and you are obviously a good soul. Wishing you long and happy life . The world would be a better place if more people were like you.

[garciadetejada]

No me gustan los guitarristas que necesitan púas para tocar.

Jamás vi a Paco de Lucía ni a Andrés Segovia con semejante artificio.

[nicksgift]

@garciadetejada Su comentario me ofende. El joven juega muy bien y tu comentario negativo sólo se les dice a todos que tiene un complejo de inferioridad. Lo siento por la gente como tú que sólo puede ver las cosas de una manera negativa. Mi deseo es que cambie su actitud ante la vida o terminar con su vida. Vete a la mierda

[vraszka]

What are names of these 53 men, that don't like it? Kim oni są się pytam?

[dnyaneshwar17]

hey nice...!!!!! pick it up!!!!!!!

[whytemonk007]

Speechless!  That was wonderful! Thank you.

[penny1906]

waaahhhhhh.......awesome!!!!!!­!!!! n_n

[junkdeal]

Boy, I never heard a guitar sound so good! Never would'a considered Bolero as a guitar piece...

[BerlinerinKaninchen]

*o*

[337lee1]

beautiful

[merkaba02]

nothing compares to Edgar Cruz...

the only thing is, he's just a kid that's why everybody is amazed...

but the truth is...Edgar Cruz's version still incomparable...

[damonlaw]

Brilliant work - the end is recorded a bit hot - but brilliant work nonetheless shines through.

[whythewar1]

Wow, I was just tabbing out and doing random interwebz stuff and listening, but around the first half I look at the video and I couldn't take my eyes off, this kid if amazing, next vladmir horowitz for the guitar.

[joacka]

Asians: The master race

[Mirjam091]

Wow, you're so good! Thanks for posting!

[CelineDevil]

Amazing ! Bravo !!!

[carlospianist]

que canteo LOOOOOL

[olivachumbo]

Lindo!

[deanrichardnewton]

So beautifully done! Keep an eye on this young man!

[TheGuidley]

The tuning is clever There is virtually no bass fingering for the left hand. This young man is wonderful. What power and emotion from one so young. A little more vibrato? Who knows?

The way he handles the rasgueado section at the end despite the picks is masterful

[TheGuidley]

The tuning is clever There is virtually no bass fingering for the left hand. This young man is wonderful. What power and emotion from one so young. A little more vibrato? Who knows?

[TheGuidley]

[bakermedia]

amazing

[jfranax]

Asian, russian, spanish, who cares? Music is universal. Great interpretation of a beautiful song. 

[locolz]

The best guitar player in the world..... the top of mind

[balticvid]

The "kid" did a great job. Nuff said!

[TaoPiet]

Brilliant, fantastic. I think the last few notes can be made some more dramatic, Sungha should experiment with that.

[kingkenfu]

Ah, blatant racism hiding behind stupid jokes. It never gets old.

Sungha, you're the man.

[lexi2263]

damn asians, always doin stuff better than the rest of us. smh

[BungleJerry]

The most depressing thing about watching Sungha Jung's videos is that every single one is filled with snide comments about his being Asian. Inevitably the top ranked comment is 'why are Asians better than everyone else?' Why do people insist on seeing this kid in terms of his country of origin? Can't people get a new theme?

[catch2370]

@BungleJerry well said.

[Karlee142]

Why is there always an Asian guy or girl?

Because Asian boys and girls work their ass of to get what they want.

[TheDjPanto]

GODLIKE!



[TheChakachaka16]

just staring at him and my mouth WIDE OPEN!!! ahhhh..

[lemietz]

hammer!!!



[teeheezies]

He's Asian. No surprise there.

[BigAlum]

@teeheezies No surprise? No kidding! He even looks Asian, no? What ht e hell do you mean. no surprise/

[Vesivian]

[barakobama]

Ladies and Gentlemen...Another great American!

[caveman85635]

Maurice would be proud!

[Trebuchet1066]

A-MAY-ZING, absolutely amazing!!! Bravisimo...

[JordanClunn]

This really isn't that hard to do.

[chestermcduffy]

@JordanClunn

Yes it's a fairly easy piece. But he plays it damn well. Excellent pacing AND tone for someone so young. 

[milanw]

call it everyday training call it parent's push the childeren too the max but this boy can play the guitar as nobody ever could

[sac66064]

i watched 5 seconds of this and concluded that this kid is absolutely amazing and probably a genius. this is definitely a future rock star if he can write his own music.

[tokee1234567]

@sac66064 he has his own compositions, nearly 20. check his youtube channel

[HELL6RACIEL]

people like this should be live forever

be inmortals .. :D

[babasmomma]

this was amazing to listen to! I enjoyed it very much. You have such a great talent!

[buddahass]

If aliens from a planet, far more evolved,and technically superior to our own happened to crash land, and consequently hear this kid playing, they'd concede the music playing to us.

[blendasr]

OMG!!!!!

[TheKamatarie]

49 people are jealous, the 3 346 others know we're just lazy and not as pooooowerfull as these fucking excellents asians !!!

[Jules11630]

Because most Americans are lazy and don't wish to put the kind of effort it takes to be the best ......shame on us.

[911fever]

No Way ...

[exerhlp]

Well done, boy!!

[dlp63]

SENZA PAROLE, BRAVISSIMO E ANCHE DI PIU'

[52Migdalia]

this kid is awesome and totally impressed me!

[rooiehans]

this is realy great. WOW. An orchestra song on one guitar. I can't close my mouth. I have no words for it and I will replay it over and over.

[xapuri11]

PQP ! Também!  Impressionante !!!

[moasucesso]

PQP! Demais! Amazing!!!

[moasucesso]

PQP! Demais! Amazing!

[rocker2051]

cuando eres bueno en algo recuerda que un niño asiatico es mejor que tu

[joserailway]

fantastic boy , greetz from belgium europe

[Gheorgyi]

@joserailway It's to be hoped he won't spoil. Many a child prodigy flopped out in the long run.

[jussilahtinen]

que bien!!

[Fr1g1der]

I applaud your brilliance. Well done!

[Patrick01012010]

Maravilha!!!

[Gregorsamsa07]

[juicystunts]

[BateSola]

excelent :)

[TheRoxiiee]

perfect!

[69zenos1]

why does thislook ANIME????

[funkgerat]

@69zenos1 Because all asians look exactly like they came out of an anime. Come on, you know that!

[nicksgift]

@funkgerat Your comment offends me. The young man plays very well and your negative comment only tells everyone that you have an inferiority complex. I feel sorry for people like you that can only look at things in a negative way. My wish is that you change your outlook on life or end your life. Piss off

[funkgerat]

@nicksgift Where did I make a negative comment about the child, and how does it tell everyone I have an inferiority complex?

Until you explain yourself I will neither change my outlook on life, end it, or piss off.

[hopeforamerika]

Truly remarkable!

[bloodblitz0]

why are you playing this on a steel string noob

[1980Longjohn]

Wahnsinn!!!!!!!!!!!!! Unglaublich was dieser Junge für Leistungen bringt. Hut ab!

[Soshalist]

exceptional music, exceptional little boy.



[DANATENS]

BELLO NIÑO GENIO !!!!!

[veryslyfox]

Finally, a Korean who does something besides play World of Warcraft

[sodasirap]

@veryslyfox So Korean loves to play World of Worldcraft? Lol I never knew. I thought Korean only know cheesy romance, robot-dancing, lipsync and plastic surgery. Sorry, I got too much k-pop

[XxMathi1993xX]

incroyable !!!!!!!

[jabez36]

KID you are a beast. im totally jealous and proud of you hahaha

[InfraSensei]

TABS PLEASE!  kidding

[Slade10200]

[TheIsasonconsabor]

LOS NIÑOS SON LOS INTELECTUALES PUROS DEL UNIVERSO

[Cantebras]

Why is there always an Asian guy/girl who does things 1000x times better than the rest of the mortals?
