[Qpidon]

@FreeMediaWorldwide thanks! Subscribe and ALL doors will open! ;-D

[FreeMediaWorldwide]

@Qpidon I subscribed now. Plz plz plz put some tutorials or tabs up for this song.... You would be the first on youtube and my guess is your subscriptions and views would soar through the ceiling. Nobody on youtube gives a tutorial or tabs for this song. Plz plz be the first

[Harky1951]

The way you have expressed this piece is so tender. I am in awe. I think this one has to go to my favorites.

Pamela

[PermanentNovice]

Any chance of getting tabs to this? It took me a couple of course to figure it out from this and another video by sight and I think it'd be more efficient if I have tabs.

Oh, and of course, beautifully done :)

[jon92xxx]

great playing!! Masa Sumide is a great composer... Keep up the good work! ;)

[stickybun68]

If I were able to play acoustic (metal strings) even a little, I'd like to play it like you.

[plus24seven]

wow ur fantastic!!.. 5 stars!

[BassMullink]

It's great to hear Masa Sumidé's work is also loved by others :) Nice playing as well!

[Pintoguitar1]

your so good :)

Love this composition

[5fingerstyle]

Your playing is super smooth. Your tone is some of the best I've heard on youtube. Really really impressed:-)

[Qpidon]

well thank you just so much...!

[mkscott333]

Very nicely played, with real feeling. Well done

[derekroolz]

hey i just wanted to know the tuning, i was thinking open D, but somone else said it was Standard?

[Qpidon]

Well, curioussly enough, this is standard tuning...but the guitar is tuned an entire step down.

[mmggppmgp]

hahah i wanna buy the tabs... the problem is the website is in japanese.. can u help me a lil?

[jnclassicalguitarist]

So sweet...

[bigkaboomtheory88]

nice cover :)

i went to masasumide's website but couldnt find the tabs, which section is it in?

[houndheadhenry]

Hi there, have been looking at some of your videos, some great playing and beautiful tunes. I love YouTube, I;ve come across some really inspirational players and you're right up there, lots of new tunes for me to learn - keep posting ! :-)

[Heronymusic]

Hi Pascal ! Great tune! I looked Franco Morone's Summertime up and it's greta yeah! Yeah we're flirting with the same song hehe (flowers of ayeko) I haven't played it yet but I want to learn it. I have the tabs (if you don't already have it)

New videos coming up BTW?

Groeten uit Holland

[Qpidon]

I've been playing "Flowers of Ayeko" all day today. Its not difficult, but rhythmically its a hard nut to crack. As a matter of fact, I am having a real hard time trying to get it right...But Jeroen, I know you will love playing it... I can't stop!

My wife and kids are going to Paris on a vacation to their parents in a few days and I plan to spend ALL that time recording.... I have around 8 or 9 new tunes ready ;-)

7 Bensusan's tough, sorry for that ;)

[Heronymusic]

Great ! Love to see your new work!

[Qpidon]

Hey Jeroen, heb je ooit die tabs van Summertime (morone) bemachtigd? ;))

[Heronymusic]

@Qpidon He, Pascal, nee die heb ik niet. Erg mooie bewerking! Groeten Jeroen

[lilmark816]

Great great job

[dani5nc]

I enjoyed this song, beautiful:). Very nicely played.

Kindly,

Dani

[Qpidon]

well thank you, Dani, surely appreciated!

[sonnyboie]

Beautiful! Thanks for this, it made my day.

[Kappadanielson]

Pretty....

kappa

[railoves11]

hey, may i know the tuning for this song?

thx. great playing by the way, similar to the original :D

[Paladin20]

the "official" YouTube video says Standard Tuning, but I've been messing around with it figuring it out and it's actually Half Step Down for all the strings =)

[112358miau]

Has tocado alguna vez la guitarra clasica en serio? Deberías probar si no lo has hecho, es apasionante. Muy bonita la pieza. Un cordial saludo.

[Qpidon]

gracias!

No, nunca, no se leeer musica (solo tablatures) aunque la musica classia me gusta mucho...

Si te gusta este, escuchas " Salut d'amour" que tengo subido aqui. La pieza es de un compositor Neo-classica y es muy bonita...

Un saludo,

Pascal

[Ziziline]

Wonderlijk,

een prima nummer voor een goede (her)Start.

Lieve groeten Angeline;

en vooral vele vele schitterende sterren......

[ElizaGabriel]

It's a good thing you have such long fingers... lol ;-)

Well played!

[Qpidon]

;-)))

[BluegrassForte]

I haven't heard this song before but I see you have listed a website for the tab. I'll check it out. Very beautiful guitar playing there! 5*

Gretsch'n

[BOBBYRIGP]

Absolutely wonderful playing ! The sound is superb, and the composition is beautiful. Thank you

[rogeriopequeno]

I liked a lot! I found soft! Beautiful song!

He/she would like to know which the software that you use to edit his/her video.

Excuses, use a translator to comment on.

[quesapa]

You play so many beautiful melodies that i haven't heard before. Very good!

[pickingwolle]

Hi, Pascal!

Today I'm in the mood for voting!

I wonder how you could learn so fast new songs! I need time and time and time...You'r a genius in comparison with me.

Never mind: You're great!

GBY

Wolle

[Qpidon]

:-))

Well this one took me several days, believe me! but a good trick is to stick with ONE TUNE untill you finnish it. When I learn a new song, I dont play ANYTHING else untill I "nailed it"....-as suggested by Tommy Emmanule. Now, when I return to the previous song I learned, oh boy , I forgot it all! :-(

It takes a day or 5 to get it from printing to this "level"...2 or 3 hours a day playing. If I can do it: everybody can!!!So you as well, for sure!

[winterelaxation]

just stopping by to hear the marvellous sound of mr pascal!!

[Tadek59]

Great Video !!!! Amazing music and amazing sound !!! 5*****

[Jazzguts]

Beautifully played Pascal and like you said ,not easy with those stretching of the left hand positions, very inventive piece of Music, great transparent sound in that guitar man,greets Victor.

[AndanteLargo]

Hey again Pascal! Even though I don't play steel stringed guitar, that doesn't mean I can't appreciate the sound of it and a very good player!! I love this and you play it so beautiful!!

5 stars and a hug!

Per-Olov

[kyotozodiac]

Good play! Good sounds! Perfect!

and Please teach your use guitar if you like.

[ephixius]

is that an alhambra?

[Qpidon]

It certainly is! All info on my equipment on my main page ;)

Regards,

Pascal.

[ephixius]

You're the first I've seen play a steel string of their's.... wow, just as good as their classicals. very nice

[THESONARIAN]

I think this might be my favorite so far ... great piece ... and the playing is vintage Pascal ... thank you ...

Don ...

[Qpidon]

Thank you so much Don. I Love this tune and love playing it. Its entirely different from anything else I know. Glad you enjoyed!

[silentff]

Pascal, you have done what I haven't yet.

What an amazing playing!

[Qpidon]

Btw, this video was dedicated TO YOU! ;))

Many thanks my friend!

[silentff]

Yes, I know ; )

No problem!

[AnchoriteProductions]

Very well done! You weren't kidding about the chord stretches! Strong jazz flavor here. I have never heard of Masa Sumidé; but, I'm sure that doesn't surprise you! :-) Thanks for posting this Pascal. I will check out his website, and the other link. - Derek

[jnclassicalguitarist]

This makes me smile, Pascal! Thanks a lot!

[Qpidon]

Thanks Dave! Its ineed a wonderfull composition. I just love it and now love playing it... its a biot a pain to downtune the strings that low...but worth it all the way!

In any case, glad you liked the musik;)))

Big kisses for you!

[fariethesun]

It means your playing is awesome. Carry on.

Heidi

[tarkineWild]

By the way, I presume that tuning is just Drop D?

[Qpidon]

Thats what I taught when I first heard it. But it is in normal tuning, but at 438hz, which is very very low...

[M0RENA007]

wow...so beautiful...great playing...

loved it!

[Qpidon]

Well thank you!

[tarkineWild]

Love masa's compositions and although Ive not heard this one before it has his a very nostalgic and romanatic feel.

Superbly felt and played as usual pascal....You never disappoint us.

Looking forward to your upcoming Masaaki piece.

[Qpidon]

I am recording it as we speak;)

[Gougouchan]

If I had to select one word to describe you, it would be GENIOUS!! Honto ni sugoi desu!! I always enjoy listening to your beautiful guitar play. I wish I could play like you.

[Qpidon]

Thats a strong comment, I would prefer you to call Masa Sumidé the Genious, he's the one that composed it, after all. But hey: my wife had a good laugh when I read her this comment ;-))

[conwint]

very nice! very well playied...

[Qpidon]

So glad you liked it, realy.

Warm regards my friend,

Psacal

[gskarogiannis]

Hey Pascal, Sumide is a master of the melody. Beautiful piece executed perfectly and with lots of feeling.

[Qpidon]

I agree George, I love Masa, shame those guys never tour in Spain...let alone in Europe!

Warm regards,

Pascal.

[gskarogiannis]

Same happens in Greece, that is nothing happens here about fingerstyle guitar. Sometimes I feel very lonely. Fortunately there is the internet.

[Qpidon]

I could not agree more!

Take care my friend, looking foreward to your next piece, they are marvelous!!

Pascal

[sguitar]

[Qpidon]

Hmmm, I realy get sloppy here at times, but the left hand endures some serious stretches that are nearly impossible. Amazing how Masa (who seems to have small hands) put this together!

thanks for your support!

[slystinks109842]

very nice!

[Qpidon]

Man you are fast!!!! ;-) thanks!
