  • Absolutely superb!

  • Wonderful!!

  • You have heart and passion and your art is there...a wonderful young musician...you will grow in your technical prowess and artistic expression as sure as summer follows spring. A pleasure to listen to your sweet music.

  • Asian father:

    "Good job, daughter."

  • very good

  • Eres dasiado buena!!!

  • Who's the fucking guitarist?

  • *insert asian joke here*

  • Brilhante !!! A música de Paganini é simplesmente fantástica. Impecavél tambem a interpretação e dinâmica desta virtuose.

  • I like the position of her hands and particularly of the right one.

  • @SuzukiGuitar57 Agreed. I browsed this video while comparing the right mid-arm position between Bream and Vidovic. My tendency is to secure the guitar with a fair amount of pressure, as Vidovic does. Bream appears to have a freely floating position. This artist seems to be steady, yet maintains freedom of movement.

    I guess you can't start at your goal; it's a journey.

  • This is as beautiful as much the 23rd sonata sucks..

  • meravigliosa

  • Bravo!

  • Simplesmente divino Su Meng interpretando A Grande Sonata, 1º movimento de Paganini.!!!

  • you wouldn't happen to have the sheet music, would you?

  • Superb. Signor Paganini will give you his blessing.

  • Fine playing.

  • que bien,,, qeu guitarrista tan virtuosa!!!!

  • beautiful

  • Comment removed

  • Love it!

  • okie so i see all this talk of guitars the only thing that is realy importatn is to get a guitar that first of all feels good in your hands and also that sounds good to YOU not to whoever is with you because no guitar sounds the same buy something to your likeing. if you dont youll most likely not want to play it and lose intrest

  • You should have seen the peice of crap a started with lol

  • So much care for each and every note. Great tone production. Lyrical. Musical. No useless speed obsession here. Just great sound and playing. Just wonderful all around.

  • Bravo!!!

  • It's especially difficult to learn guitar in China because guitars are too expensive. A spruce top Spanish guitar will cost 4000 to 30000 dollars, and when changed to Chinese money "Yuan", $4000 would be close to ¥30000. That's more than a whole year's income of a family for more than half of the Chinese population. Sad

  • that doesnt mean LEARNING to play is more difficult, that just means acquiring a guitar is more difficult, HUGE difference.

  • Yeah, huge difference, maybe. But to somebody else, maybe it's not that huge. I agree with what you said, but to me, while playing a bad guitar, I lost all my desire to continue. It's my problem, which might be shared by some other lazy people like me. In principle, @@@@@, but in reality, ######.

  • If we are talking "To Learn Guitar",it certainly not about the guitar's price

    we do not need to buy a 4000~30000 dollars guitar TO LEARN GUITAR.Many experts also not using the 30000 dollars so called top guitar.For beginners,some cheap and nice guitar like Yamaha C/CG series which in range of 200 to 1000 dollars.Myself as a part time street-performer using an old guitar which i bought around 2000 dollars from 2ndhand shop

    Don't let money as an excuse to stop you going on your way of music.

  • Well,I know exactly how poor a $500 guitar sounds. And if no one buys $4000 guitars, where to find second hand ones.. After all, meaningless topic. One can argue that people who REALLY want to learn guitar can use just a $5 rubbish to practice finger work and I totally agree . But I'm not that kind of avid player, I need the beautiful sounds coming out from my fingers to keep me go on. Maybe my understanding of music is wrong, lol~ But I can not appreciate a complex finger work with poor sound.

  • I posted this because I believe that if she was using a better piece, the result would be very different. I have an impression, which may be very wrong, that the sound of this guitar damaged this performance. Suddenly I remembered the very poor guitar my friend and I played when we were undergrads who were as poor as the guitar. Sweet memory.

    However, really hardworking kids can create miracles. I'm not one of them~ I need a good guitar to "seduce" me to practice, ^_^~

  • @greatgibson0

    Hi:

    The guitar that she is not a beater but a high end concert guitar - the top model - the Spezial --- made by German luthiers Armin and Mario Gropp. It is a top notch guitar that sells for $7500. All of the students of Dr. Chen (Lie Ji, Wang Yameng and Su Meng, etc use that model.

  • Amazing performance, thank you for posting!

  • What is her name? I mean the pretty girl.

  • ilove :D

  • good

  • Its a shame because i take lessons and although there are quite a few girls, I can tell only a few actually enjoy classical music, or playing the guitar for that matter. I would enjoy seeing many more girls interested in this. Why they do not I'm not quite sure?

  • I know what you mean. I'm a girl, and I love playing the classical guitar (as well as electric, but I tend to enjoy classical more). It IS a shame that more girls don't play.

  • very good,

    but when ever i see an Asia girl playing classical guitar,.. all i think is that her parents made her play and take lessons that she did not want to take.

    am i right ? either way she plays very well :)

  • I'm not sure. Paganini himself was.... well you know his Tune in life. As for this Woman, Fuck!. Looks like they did force her to play, until she Fell inlove with such euphony Ahhhhhhh. She won.....she won.

  • wrong

  • that's exactly what i think! they probably were forced to play as a kid but whether they enjoyed the music or not i can never tell...

  • very nice, the lighting is a bit distracting from a great performance. that guitar sounds amazing, what's the maker and model if you don't mind me asking?

  • fukamiganai,music

    eko-tukenaide!!

  • I love this piece and this is a fantastic rendition. Well Done !

  • Wonderful!!

  • Very nice. I love that piece. I have heard Filomena Moretti and Julian Bream do it too. Excellent job. Where can I find the sheet music? Is it available? Cheers.

  • not the original one!!! this is a transcription with violin part embedded...

  • I have only the original one, it would be very nice if you could guide me where to download or purchase the transcription with violin part embedded...

  • forget the email I sent you

    I misanderstood!!!!

    I dont't have the embedded violin version, neither I will...I don't like strange experiments!!

  • holy sh*t she's only 16...

  • Asian girls have more delicate characters, they can sense very subtle change of emotions. Maybe not only for girls but in general. That's why now the world famous Asian guitarists they are playing mostly classical and romantic music, rarely contemporary music, because that's their personality, really different from European people. If don't believe me then find your self an Asian girlfriend and experience it by yourself.

  • Do not ever find an Asian girlfriend just to experience something......any girl, not just asian......

  • whoa

  • Simply amazing!!!

  • it must be a required learning for paganini music in china's music school..

  • Great!! You should give Ana Vidovic some pointers on how to get good sound and phrasing. You play this piece the way its meant to be played. BRAVO!!!!

  • u r cute with it

    hope to play like you someday

  • Es genial, una excelente guitarristas... Mis saludos desde Argentina (Del otro lado del mundo)

  • Her name is "Gong Zhe",sound like "Gon Tse".19 years old.

  • beautifull Playing

  • Wondrous performance. Guitar music is the language of all humankind!

  • What is the name of the CUTE CUB playing the guitar? Excellent technique, tone for such a young cub:)

  • when i see such great technique and expression i feel like a rookie

    i guess i should go practice my guitar now

  • You are not the only one!!!!

  • anyone know where I could find the sheet music to this version?

  • how old is he?

  • one example of the racists here is lebouski... plain and simple

  • amazing!

  • Una de las más maravillosas y PRECISAS interpretaciones que he escuchado en mi vida... No tiene errores, ni vacilaciones...

    BRAVO. "MAESTRA"!!!!!!

  • nice

  • good job! :D keep up the amazing work

  • nice music! Tianjin is a good place, now a lot of young artist is from there!

  • well done

  • 談的很棒! 不過身體左傾, 會影響以後的發展!

  • Young Asian Girls are my heroes. Who is she, what's her name?

    They say when the student is ready, the master (mistress?) will appear...

  • Very nicely played by this young lady.Guitar has lovely tone and accoustics are A1.This piece has everything and must be very testing for the players dexterity etc etc...

  • SO?????and so also are the origins of this lovely instrument..

  • Who gives a shit!!! they're gonna kill that poor women

  • i give a shit. who are goin to kill who ? your english is not clear friend.

  • will you just.....take it easy man?

  • sure i'll take it easy and be a happier person when rascist comments are kept of comments about music and musicians too Irish Ill take it easy....

  • sure ill take it easy man..! Please read my latest comment thanks and good morning..

  • The Origins of the guitar aren't Asian, at least not in the sense you're talking about. The Guitar comes from a long line of plucked instruments including the Lyre, Vilhuella, Lute etc. which are all native to Europe.

    You could argue that it is a descendant of say; the Setar or Hittiti, but there is no evidence to prove that the guitar comes from them and may just be coincidence that they are similar and originated thousands of miles apart.

  • I'm not sure, but I think that all stringed instruments were brought to Spain(and then to the rest of the europe) by Islamic people in early middle ages

  • Withdraw the second comment friend.this comment is racist,and lacking in taste..Are you a Supremacist...???

  • paganini was a racist. and an alchohalic

    SO how was your Christmas blistew?

  • 2 wrongs dont make a right.xmas brilliant but could have been better..you failed to answer my previous question. Are you a Supremacist?

  • No, I have friends of all races. But the fact of the matter is that asains don't have souls man. But they're talented people.

  • How could you manage to have such friends with such an arrogant and patronising attitude?

  • fuck you lebouski, how can you say we have no soul? i will tell one with soul who is not an asian ADOLF HITLER who killed many people for pleasure, that's a man with a soul for you? if not, who has a soul? what race? Fuck you!

  • i agree, but the man responsible for the final solution to the Jewish question was Reinhard Heydrich, super intelligent, very athletic, very competitive, an excellent fencer, super cruel and a virtuoso violinist!! with a lot of soul! even mass murders can be very talented, his father had written many pieces Bruno Heydrich {had a music conservatory in Hamburg}

  • So superlative !!!. Cheers, ~Sergio, Patagonia, Argentina.

  • You're a great artist.

  • how come you get gong zhe's video?

  • well done!

  • awesome, amazing, animated, alive, artistic and aspiring! and those are just the a's

  • this young lady really plays quite masterfully!!! don't know why anybody would be critical of her. she just played the hell out of that piece!!! mo' powuh sistuh!!!

    keep on pluckin'

  • I've never heard a more ignorant review of a classical piece. "Mo powuh sistuh keep on pluckin"

    ...Wow

  • Se non lo fossi giá potrei innamorarmi subito di una donna che suona Paganini cosí ! Grazie. In einer Frau die so schön Paganini spielt, könnte ich mich ab sofort verlieren! Danke!

    Musicfro

  • Nada mal para ser una principiante. To be an amateur, you are good.

  • nice, but little passion, a little bit slow, no joy.

  • very nice!

  • can I have the notation/partitur of this song?I've been searching for it..thx

  • if you don't have the notation for this yet i just found it on line for free. let me know and i'll send you the link.

  • Nice performance and nice guitar....

  • wow, shes good

  • I think this must be Xue-Fei Yang,correct me if I am wrong.Really wonderful playing though,she puts everything shes got into it and really knows how to make the dynamics work.

  • No, She is not Xue-Fei Yang. But she may be able to catch up Xue-Fei Yang someday.

  • She plays this beautifully, all things considered. A few technical brush-up's required and perhaps a tad more emotion but that is basically nitpicking her performance. Its a beautiful rendition. GoldenMirc, I dont know what you mean by a strange variant? This is almost identical to John Williams performance on his Essential Classic's disc. Fantastic.

  • Brava. Molto brava

  • Listen to Julian Bream's version, and John Williams' version are probably the best, this Canadian player named Norbert Kraft probably has the best version but no one knows because he hasn't released it publicly, my teacher was taught by him so he had an old tape lol

  • I'm sure the second movement, Romanze, is written by Paganini too.

    Plus I think you should take care of stopping the notes when you see a pause on the score, or before another note begins. ;)

  • She plays a really, really strange variant. I play it too. Personally, I don't like this. It should be full of joy and life. She plays it more like a technical exercise.

  • She plays a really, really strange variant. I play it too. Personally, I don't like this. It should be full of joy and life. She plays it more like a technical exercise.

    GoldenMirc, dying to see your version.

  • I actually agree, I was reading the music while listening and there are quite a few differences, and yes I was using a reliable score before somebody asks. I also wasn't moved at all by this performance.

  • Don't get me wrong it was good technical playing though - good job. I would work on the alternating 3rd's a bit more though.

  • I'm wondering if this is Su Meng when she was younger. Not being too familiar with Paganinni could someone tell me if the second section was his or not? To me it sounded very much like Guiliani.

  • Paganini wrote the entire thing as far as I know .. I've played all three movements of the Sonata .. if I'm wrong then that makes me a bafoon

  • wo0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o­w

  • amazing!

  • I feel seasick.

  • Show us some skin.

  • Vay çan çin çon vay

  • Hey folks - not sure if Im missing this in the post, but who is this gal, please?

  • wow. This is beyond words. I shudder to think how unappreciated classical music is in so many places and to so many people. If only they wouldn't not listen to a certain brand of music no matter how soul altering it is. :( today so many are as artistically sensitive as a brick wal. If only people didn't insult genious because it is old genious

  • Damn, she's only 16.

  • It´s really terrific... she is swinging! This feelings.... oh god. ^^

  • * where I can find this partition in web.* Please.

  • Did you find the partition? If you did, let me know.

  • Hmm I heard from a Chinese friend that it is only recently that Classical music is allowed in China...During the "strict" communist rule about 50 years ago Chinese were forbidden to play western music in China. I guess they have a good concentration and a devotion to learn if they really want to. Americans are spoilt have too many distractions, I guess.

  • It´s a really good reply to these bastards that are blaming the parents of these asian girls that they are so terrifics! :D It´s for them on. ^^

  • it's steriods!

  • Asian Parents can get very strict with their children. Thus the result.

  • It must be something to do with their great ancient philosophies cause most Asian girls on this site that play guitar are mind blowing

  • Beautiful and the music was flawless too. I wish I had a girl that could play like that.

  • I agree with you. I dont have a child but, If I have oneday, I will have her to take serious classical guitar lessons.I have started to save money the courses :)

  • Asian girls are going to save to world

  • *clap clap*

  • She's a rare bird indeed . Unlike the other girls I've watched on YouTube , she didn't make the bad tradeoff : get the speed at all cost , including the music itself .

    My hat off to her teacher :-D

  • haha, well if your parents would beat u sensless unless you were awesome at playing the guitar, then i think youd be pretty good at it too. lets give a round of applause for abuse!..it really does move mountains it seems

  • 50% true :-) My Mom would whip me if I got stubbornly lazy doing my homework but very few Asian parents would consider musicianship as a serious career . Hope that has been changed . Regards .

  • Well, at my look she don´t give a sign of don´t liking playing such a music.

    Man, you don´t know what is to play music! The feelings that we get on it... AND she is passing me this feelings when she plays. It´s a hard work to pass the feelings of the music when you play it. Generaly it just happens when you are playing whit "your heart".

  • hey, that's true that asian girls are the best for classical guitar, don't know really why (if someone can explain), but it's a fact...

  • She's asian, what's so supprising about it. Any asian can do that... They can also kick your ass at any videogame, kick your ass literally with crazy martial arts, and draw/paint/write ten thousand times than you ever will be able to. Asians are like the starbucks of humans. Monopoly/owns all.

  • she just had to be asian T_T

    How come i can't do that

  • WTF GREAT

  • woww! wonderful! i've never seen something like this! i fell in love with u without doubt! really!

    how long have u been tranning it for this perfection??

    well, no words.. congratulations!

  • What is playing this?

  • a human

  • Fantastic. Amazing what you are doing here, particularly with such small fingers. That neck looks huge! Really enjoyed this performance. Thank you.
