I remember playing this song and another song by Bach for NYSSMA (music festival in New York) and the Friday before the festival i played this song for my senior choir class and at the part where you do the sweep and end on the B1:48 , I could literally feel the silence in the room. None of them heard me ever play any Classical Guitar before and when i finish the song the were freaking out and thought it was so good. But I am always humble and tried to tell them it was nothing hehe
the timbre works better when the first E is played on the D string, and that is the one and only critique i have. Very beautiful, wide dynamics, world class interpretation. I give it 5 stars
I came across your channel, and I listened to a couple of your recordings and was absolutely stunned. I wanted to ask you if you could play and record the 4th prelude of Villa-Lobos, because that is one of my favourite pieces for guitar. But I decided to search for it first. And here it is: one of only two Villa-Lobos pieces on your channel. And what a great performance it is, thank you!
i disliked the fact that you started playing TOO fast after playing TOO slow... either speed up the 1st part or slow down the 2nd. its a beautiful music, and i am disappointed.
nevertheless, your other performances are outstanding, and I do consider you a great musician.
its a lovely interpretation. V-L is great to play although i havent got very far with him. the music makes me feel like im doing something very challenging i also find i can put alot of expression into it.
I admire you for playing this so well "without" the sheet music! All notes were correct, the only thing you didn't conform to are the speed-specifications, but I like your personal specifications ;-) . I personally don't like the cantabile-part being played too fast, but you managed to play it very clean and musical!
Mr. Kindgren, I had no idea you had a video of this piece! I'll never forget the day I memorized this one. I enjoyed playing it for some time. I totally forget the whole song now...lol maybe some day, I'll take it out again. I love Villa-Lobos!!!!! Scott
I remember playing this Christmas Eve for my fiancés family when I was 20 years. They all looked like: WHAT!? Is that music? :-) I tell you thay didn't like it! They never asked me to play again. I guess I ruined their Christmas totally that year! LOL
I have a frustrating relationship with V-L. I hate and love him at the same time... Have to talk to my shrink about that... and other things too
Ha ha ....that's a funny story! I thought I saw you in the waiting room...to see the same shrink!! I too have a funny relationship with Villa-Lobos. When I first learned No.4 Gavotta from Suite Populaire, measure 27, there's an A# and a B natural. People always thought I made a mistake! so, I would eliminate the A# for people who don't know Villa-Lobos music!! lol
Great musicality- and amazing harmonics. If you do a bit of checking, you will find that this is probably the best played video of this piece available on youtube. You play the fast section with GREAT musicality-speedy but still nice to listen to. Also, you have a great feel for the piece.
You are wrong, greekjorda35. This man is a wizard on the guitar and if you haven't played longer than 8 years this video is a good tutorial on how to carefully execute a contemplative piece in a masterful way. It takes a gentleman.
Dude. Seriously. Some people actually take this stuff for real. If you think his performance of it is so bad, you play it. And pp, or pianissimo, that's supposed to be quiet. You don't "edit" classical music. If you do, it means you're not good enough.
hi mr kindgren, its been a year now that im listening to your music, i must tell you how fantastic it is to see how dedicated you are to your art. your music helped me in some hard moments that ive gone trough, youre a great source of inspiration for me, as i play guitar and piano, arent anyways i could buy your album?
An absolutely amazing performance. I am in the process of deciding my guitar examination pieces, and I thought that following the music with your recording would be my best bet. Your performances are always technically and musically perfect. I concluded that I absolutely wanted to do this piece for my guitar exam.
I then read the video description. You played it perfectly, note for note. These videos are of an elite on youtube, of true quality and musicianship.
Sensacional... tenho orgulho de Villa-Lobos ser Brasileiro e mostrar o valor da nossa música para o mundo todo. Você representou de maneira magnífica! Parabéns!
I love especially how you play the first part of the song, it has definitely a lot of feeling and emotion. By the way, in my sheets the first note is picked from the ninth fret on g-string :) But let's get real it doesn't matter, it's just how the player's style is.
I am happy you like my playing. I play a Philippe Jean-Mairet from Switzerland. I ordered it in 1987. I hve heard 5-6 of his instruments and I am sure I got the best!! :-) But I have to add that I work a lot with my nails and how I hit the strings...
Greetings again from chilly NY, Peo. I was introduced to this work last night by my instructor and I thought, who better to get some good fingerings from but you. Wonderful job and I hope I do this work the justice you have.
Hi there! And we thought of going to NYC during New Years Eve just to be on Times Square at 00:00 But I think we will stay in a warmer place then. :-)
I am honored you l"use me" as a guidance! Please keep doing that.
Impecavel. Da para perceber, com o meu pouco conhecimento de musica comparado ao dele, que e um otimo violonista. Perfeito, tanto na tecnica quanto na interpretacao.
I dunno, ChiefofBuddha - maybe he should back off on the gain a little. That full sound is overwhelming the electronics. And it is a beautiful, full sound. Wow.
You gotta fix your right hand ... It's like, sooooo annoying. It moves from the right to the left and arghhh ... I just can't watch it. Where do they teach that sort of thing?!
Lol joking of course. Sure, people are entitled to their opinions, but this is just ... Oh well.
How dare you critizice me!? Ugga!!! Or is it bugga? Anyways, you only have to listen, not looking. But on the other hand I know it's hard not to look at such a handsome man... welll that's my destiny...:-)
I am looking very much forward to critizice your version of this (easy) piece.
Well, ok, not ALWAYS. Only when I'm saying nasty things, I mean the exact opposite. I need to get back to studying and eating chocolate donuts now ...
Oh by the way; I had my last guitar lesson before the holidays last week, and I got 15 (!!) pieces to study in 10 weeks. Yay!!!
Sure you will see them on YT! But after I've gone through them with my teacher. It always goes like that; I think it's good enough, post it, and then my teacher tells me I should change this, and this, and that ... So I'm gonna wait for a while this time.
When I first heard this one....I felt emotionally exhausted!! (that's a good thing). It's soooo dramatic...but I love playing this one. Always a treat to watch your videos...Scott
All guitarists - Prof. Kindgren is one of the best exponents of understanding what John Williams meant when he said 'The magic of the guitar lies in the dying away of the note'.
He also respects the Segovian observation that the guitar is the most polyphonic of the stringed instruments.
Two simple, but profound, realities. Yet I'm finding even some 'concert' guitarists ignoring these truths.
Are audiences being let down? You bet. And it's time to speak up.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
u really need to work on keeping right hand centralized...quit the rock star block chords. i couldnt finish the video cause your right hand was so annoying
I think I have one of the best mics there is actually. They have been used for many CD recordings (my own too) that has won awards for best sound. So I really think you are on the wrong track here. Maybe you just don't like my sound. That is OK, but the mics are the best! :-)
I often get bored when I am watching a video that I have seen many times before. BUT NOT WHIT THIS ONE! I find myself sitting for four minutes and listening and enjoying the music as if it was the first time I ever heard music! This is perhaps the most beautiful piece ever written for guitar, and you really play it well! Now I just wonder, where can I get the music sheet? I have been looking for it fore a while. Thanks a lot fore sharing this whit us!
Thank you. I am happy you can listen to this so many times. I like this piece too but it's very modern so it's not many people that can appreciate it.
I tihnk you have to buy this from the publisher (Max Echsig)
One of the finest versions of this piece I have ever heard, and one of the most unique because you don't follow the music too strictly. The guy who said you were too interpretive is wrong; I think your fingerings sound better than the written ones. I'd love to hear the way you play the other four preludes.
This piece is so atmospheric and you played it well and although I am a gentleman of metal I am always impressed with classical. I also just started learning this and it helped, thanks!!!
Terrific! When I hear this piece I think of the quiet of the forest. An event disturbs a flock of birds and they fly away. After they are gone the forest is quiet again. Beautiful!
Though technically sound, you are too interpretive: We must remember that villa lobos was a guitarist who played a modern guitar, so he knew what he was doing wen he made those fingerings (it was intentional). Also remember that the preludes are homage to the natives of his brazil, and the bass melody is supposed to represent the booming indigenous pipes of that culture and harmonic rhythms represent the a distant group of drums, so they should be much more pianissmo then you are playing them.
i have just discovered you!!! what I like most about your interpretations are the contrasting tempo dynamics. so many other posters consider music to be a speed competition. The room acoustics you record in are beautiful. The slower sections have a somnolent warmth and atmosphere. the fast sections are brittle and percussive. both are perfectly phrased and judged. Very wonderful. Add me to your list of admirers. elton ritchie
just greatful!!!I love you interpretation in every pieces you play!!very good....Have you ever played the second moviment of the aranjuez's concert?I'd be very curious to listen how you could interpret it.
I spent a few hours last weekend watching and listening to practically all of your videos. Since I can't comment everywhere, I will just do it here - my favorite: great stuff, great interpretations. You are now my second most favorite guitarist - the first being my son (ok, he is not as good technically, being only 13) :-)
Any chance you will record the Bach (violin) Chaconne - you seem to like Bach... (so do I)?
I am honored by your kind words. This was even a surprise to me. I haven't played it for 15 years or more and one evening I just remembered it like that... strange...
Hi Peo, I'm brazilian and I feel happy to know that you appreciate the music of the best composer in all American continent of the 20th century, I really like your work and attention with music. Keep making this beautiful work. Thank you.
I must ask, how do you get such clear recording? Is the audio recorded at the same time as the video? (either way, it is still amazing!)

If you care about the tone of your guitar...you should find a better mic. its pointless on this video as it is flat.

Hi ther! Thanks for your comment!
I think I have one of the best mics there is actually. They have been used for many CD recordings (my own too) that has won awards for best sound. So I really think you are on the wrong track here. Maybe you just don't like my sound. That is OK, but the mics are the best! :-)

I often get bored when I am watching a video that I have seen many times before. BUT NOT WHIT THIS ONE! I find myself sitting for four minutes and listening and enjoying the music as if it was the first time I ever heard music! This is perhaps the most beautiful piece ever written for guitar, and you really play it well! Now I just wonder, where can I get the music sheet? I have been looking for it fore a while. Thanks a lot fore sharing this whit us!

One of the finest versions of this piece I have ever heard, and one of the most unique because you don't follow the music too strictly. The guy who said you were too interpretive is wrong; I think your fingerings sound better than the written ones. I'd love to hear the way you play the other four preludes.

I am very happy you like my version. I always look for fingerigs that are "musical" and not always the easiest and obvious.

Terrific! When I hear this piece I think of the quiet of the forest. An event disturbs a flock of birds and they fly away. After they are gone the forest is quiet again. Beautiful!

Though technically sound, you are too interpretive: We must remember that villa lobos was a guitarist who played a modern guitar, so he knew what he was doing wen he made those fingerings (it was intentional). Also remember that the preludes are homage to the natives of his brazil, and the bass melody is supposed to represent the booming indigenous pipes of that culture and harmonic rhythms represent the a distant group of drums, so they should be much more pianissmo then you are playing them.

i have just discovered you!!! what I like most about your interpretations are the contrasting tempo dynamics. so many other posters consider music to be a speed competition. The room acoustics you record in are beautiful. The slower sections have a somnolent warmth and atmosphere. the fast sections are brittle and percussive. both are perfectly phrased and judged. Very wonderful. Add me to your list of admirers. elton ritchie

just greatful!!!I love you interpretation in every pieces you play!!very good....Have you ever played the second moviment of the aranjuez's concert?I'd be very curious to listen how you could interpret it.

I spent a few hours last weekend watching and listening to practically all of your videos. Since I can't comment everywhere, I will just do it here - my favorite: great stuff, great interpretations. You are now my second most favorite guitarist - the first being my son (ok, he is not as good technically, being only 13) :-)
Any chance you will record the Bach (violin) Chaconne - you seem to like Bach... (so do I)?

You and me are better than Mr John Williams (when it comes to Villa-Lobos), his renditions are fricking boring!
