creo que el capricho 24 de paganini en guitarra electrica no tiene ni la mitad de la dificultad que el mismo en guitarra clasica (acustica) asi que relajense y disfruten la pieza
What are you serious this is not Jason Becker I already saw the original video of that Asian Female guitarist who played this song exactly. Jason only played Paganini's 5th caprice. Get your shit together Tyrone.
Thanks for the ad, glad you're making a buck off of Jason Becker's name, using someone else's music. Let's see, Becker didn't play the Frankenstrat, and whilst Eddie and Jason could play classical guitar, this sounds exactly like Williams studio recording.
Get your facts straight, and, oh yea, stop trying to make money off people with talent, whether their name or their work, as you obviously have none. Unless the proceeds from your ad revenue are going to cure ALS, seriously, go die.
I want to tell you, by the most respectfull way possible, you are an asshole! It ain't Jason Becker playing, it's John Williams.... And in the photograph there is Eddie Van Hallen....
What the f@ck is going on here men?! Jason plays on this record! Who the f@ck cares about that picture?! Yeah, it's a classical guitar playing not electrical! And now what?
Are you on your minds? Jesus! Listen to Jason's music for God sake!
@GoodMetalFTW have you read my comment, idiot? This is CLASSICAL GUITAR, not electric guitar. THIS, and not the pic, is the matter because this isn't jason becker. This is a Paganini transcription for classical guitar, and ISN'T BECKER. The pic is a detail.
For all the retards, let's finalise. This is John Williams' recording.
Not Jason Becker, or Van Halen - these two couldn't hold a candle to John Williams in the '80s on the classical guitar, despite being great electric players.
End of story. Enjoy the recording.
PS: If you thumb this up, the slower kids will see it before any other comments.
@RandomMocker Yeah, and if you ever heard John Williams try to play electric you'd realize his limitation too. He couldn't hold a candle to Eddie or Jason. End of story.
@IYAMNI Ahhh heyy, you must be one of the slower kids I was referring to. At no point did I ever say John was a better electric guitarist - I SPECIFICALLY said "they couldn't hold a candle to him on the classical guitar". Keep working hard, learning to read is an important skill!
@RandomMocker PS: I don't even like John Williams' classical playing that much, I find it to be pretty unmusical. I like Van Halen, though, and as for Jason Becker: I used to like him, but now I think if I just wanted to hear lots of scales and arpeggios, I'd just go practise...
@RandomMocker No offense taken. Been called worse by better. But still smart enuff to know the implications of the unspoken. Every art is a discipline in and of itself. Williams sux on electric. I've heard it. Just pointing it out. Sorry to ruffle your feathers. You'll outgrow it.
@IYAMNI lol? Nothing I said was "unspoken". Any "implications" were all apparent. You still don't get it... I know Williams sucks on electric, I don't even like his classical playing that much. I'm sorry if you are actually retarded.
@RandomMocker 'Retarded' Eloquent. Let me retire now, unscathed, for how could I fare against so tepid a wit as thou? Excuse if I thought you an advocate for Williams since you seemed so offended by the candles others might hold to him... and when. I find him exemplary of classical technique. His Aranjuez is probably my favorite, next to Angel Romero's.... and De Luca's for it's raw sensuality. If you're going to disparage the intellect of others, you want to exhibit some of your own. Ciao.
@IYAMNI I'm sorry, I assumed you were aware of the medical terminology was "mentally retarded"; and "retarded" was simply acting a contracted version of the terminology. As for eloquence, neither of us have particularly went out of our way to display such technical literacy. I do appreciate what he has done for the guitar community - he has achieved more than most in history for the instrument. With regards to his playing though, his dry, unmusical style is not to my tastes.
@RandomMocker His earlier years were much better than his more recent years with regards to his interpretation, as they were more thought out, and basically, I think he cared much more back then. In the concert of his I attended recently he did not seem involved at all. I would agree with you on De Lucia's interpretation of the Aranjuez, it is my favourite.
My aim was never to disparage anyone's intellegence, you were just reading my comment so wrong I thought there must have been something...
@RandomMocker His classical technique is definitely masterful, I doubt anyone would ever disagree with that. As a classical guitarist myself I envy the ease of which he pulls off some of the things he does. Look for some other guitarists called: Pavel Steidl, and my friend Marek Pasieczny. I'd recommend them both highly.
@RandomMocker I have never been offended by anyone holding a candle to John Williams, what may irritate me is people stating "HE'S THE BEST EVER!!!!" ignorantly, but that's the most anyone on YouTube could affect me in a negative way.
@RandomMocker You may dress your replies up in whichever fancy manner you deem necessary, in perhaps a futile attempt of intellectually looming over me, but my friend, you should try to improve the content of your comment first as it seems, quite often, to be misguided, not thought out enough and lacking of any impact what so ever.
I agree, let's end it here, enough has been said on the subject.
@RandomMocker I think you are understimating Jason's skills. He could play this stuff, of course, with a pick. Maybe you just cant understand how good he was... I personally prefer other kinds of music right now(like flamenco), but I was a huge Jason's fan in the past, and I can say: dont take him lightly, he was a DEMON.
FYI: this it the famous version by John Williams. I knew it the moment I heard the first pluck. He does a great job in making it sound almost thought it's a baroque piece. Perhaps for harpsichord.
It is good whoever is playing the ACOUSTIC GUITAR. It isn't Van Halen. And what was supposed to be the harmonic part was just played as notes. but I will listen to it sometimes. I like the Jei Lee version best of all. That is how it really should sound when played on a guitar. Party on.
This guy is not Jason Becker, ain't John Williams neither... the original performance is from Elliot Fisk. There is no one video in youtube of this exact studio version, but look the video and analyze the technic of Elliot, one of the best guitar players in the world.
Shut the fuck up all of you knowers !!! One says jason's version would be alot better, but just did'n realized that it's a classical guitar playing, other says electric guitar is shit. But stupiness is everywhere and music is not an exeption
We could argue all day about classical is harder than electric or vice versa. In the end, it doesn't matter. Do you have fun doing what you're doing? Do you enjoy playing guitar so much that it gives you a boner/makes your nipples hard? If so, then just keep playing, keep having fun, and never let anyone take that away from you. Talk to Jason Becker. Can't even move his body, but he is still creating music. He loves what he is doing. That's all that matters.
@metalliholic This is the studio version of John Williams playing the 24th Caprice. It's off of his classical compilation called "Warning Guitar". I know this because I learned playing the 24th, as well as many other songs, from that CD.
I am shure Jason could do it. But this is not his recording. I play both electric and classical guitars... so I play 5th caprice on electric and 24th on classical. Not an easy task but not impossible)
To juanmafull and the other 26 people who think Jason Becker's version would
have been better than this: That sounds like ignorance and you are probably making an evaluation on speed factors alone. SPEED has very little to do with great music making. Tempo is just one aspect. This classic John William's recording is an epitome of tone, phrasing, and cleanly articulated sound. There are very few who can play at this level.
@paultreselli Dude most shredding fans have no idea what music is. They say "is it fast/difficult? SWEET" They do not realize that ALL well trained musicians can play this shit. It its about the tone, phrasing, emotion, feeling. THAT is why they do not realize how embarrassing it is when shredders try to play classical music. They think that Jason Becker, a rock guitarist, could play it the way Williams plays, or any other classically trained guitarist. Ugh it pisses me off
@MikeyIV Well it all comes down to " is this pleasing to the ear?" or "does this influence me in some way?"
I mean I guess for some pure technical gymnastics provides a sense of euphoria. I can say for myself that nailing a difficult passage is a high...but it may have not been musical to the listener. So perhaps some of the shred heads would benefit from widening their listening scope and also rethink what they qualify as music.
@paultreselli What i was saying is many pure shredders see IF they can play it, and consider it a great achievement when they play a fast piece of music. They don't understand that anyone can do that. Musicians understand that a piece's speed is only one very, very small part of the playing. The true difficulty comes from the phrasing, the feeling, the emotion, and movement. It is very embarrassing when people think that Jason Becker could ever play this like John Williams, a concert guitarist.
@MikeyIV I Point taken and I agree for the most part. But I think we should also clarify that there's a major difference in the tools used regarding electric vs acoustic. Classical style picking versus plectrum ... completely differ in technical approaches. Although there are techniques in classical that employ -up-down
picking for speedy lines. But for the most part they require a different approach. So even at the highest levels of
@MikeyIV adaptable to either instrument. So an electric player could play with 'classical' precision...many do.
I would venture to say that we would see more of that caliber in jazz players, but in any case, it's a moot point.
We and other posters could go on and on about who could do what... but I agree with you in that Becker had electric guitar skills , not classical. But perhaps in an electrical guitar style Becker could have played this piece with a similar level of precision and smoothness
Classical guitar requires a level of control and accuracy that is not existent for the most part in shred. There are a few exceptions and Becker most likely had the kind of drive and capacity to be able to play high caliber classical works. But this , for the record, is not Jason Becker, it's the great Australian classical guitarist, John Williams.
Lol, biggest fail of ignorance and trying to deceive people, first this is John Williams playing, proof here: (/watch?v=39iSblezm1M) second and the biggest laughing matter, this is NOT!!!! an electric guitar you can really hear the difference... im not trying to tell Becker was not good, he was amazing and still composing today which is amazing.

THIS IS NOT JASON BECKER - I'm pretty sure that this is John Williams version (and a very beautiful slow and clean version I might add). Becker played parts of the 5th caprice like yngwie.
WTF! this is John Williams, preforming on classical guitar. Jason becker doesnt even play classical guitar. And btw that is obviously Van Halen on the picture.
@juanmafull i believe you are correct it sounds to me like john williams who is a master classical guitarist. I don't see what could be improved on though it sounds pretty dam good to me.
Yep its definately John Williams playing i have this version on cd.
This is not jason becker, it is some classical guitar player . Jason BEcker is a very good electric gutar player but he does not play classical guitar, that is fucking hard
@danrockstar93 if you can play electric you can play an acoustic?! its the same concept. and by you saying that its really hard is like saying its going to hurt when a pregnant woman gives birth (it happens no matter what)
Really amazing. He has a very good musicality, palys the capriccio rather slowly but guitar version probably requires a different speed than the violin one. However, he has a wonderful touch, really good taste for rubatos and accelerandos, crescendo and diminuendo, and also is very clean
No, he was not. Becker was a metal guitarist, not a classical musician. To play this requires years of studying and immense dedication, not to mention technical abilities beyond that of most rock musicians.
Becker worshipping is really getting sillier and sillier by the hour...
@AnnaAnnaYes Where did I mention Morse or MacAlpine, or any of the other guys? No, they do not possess the abilities required to play this piece at this level. I mean, Joe Satriani? He plays classical guitar now? C'mon. Becker was great at what he did, but he was not a classical guitarist.
And since when did Eliot Fisk opine that Jason Becker was a classical guitarist capable of playing Paganini pieces on John Williams' level? Do you have any single smidgen of evidence to back up these claims?
@AnnaAnnaYes No, Fisk's bio says nothing of the sort. No, a musical degree does not automatically make you a classical musician on John Williams' level. And no, Wikipedia is not a consistently reliable source of information.
You are simply making a whole bunch of claims that you can't back up with any evidence. You say that Jason Becker was capable Paganini's 24th Caprice on John Williams' level, yet Becker was not a classical guitarist to begin with.

It its about the tone, phrasing, emotion, feeling. THAT is why they do not realize how embarrassing it is when shredders try to play classical music. They think that Jason Becker, a rock guitarist, could play it the way Williams plays, or any other classically trained guitarist. Ugh it pisses me off

@MikeyIV Well it all comes down to " is this pleasing to the ear?" or "does this influence me in some way?"
I mean I guess for some pure technical gymnastics provides a sense of euphoria. I can say for myself that nailing a difficult passage is a high...but it may have not been musical to the listener. So perhaps some of the shred heads would benefit from widening their listening scope and also rethink what they qualify as music.
I've had to do that many,many times.

@paultreselli What i was saying is many pure shredders see IF they can play it, and consider it a great achievement when they play a fast piece of music. They don't understand that anyone can do that. Musicians understand that a piece's speed is only one very, very small part of the playing. The true difficulty comes from the phrasing, the feeling, the emotion, and movement. It is very embarrassing when people think that Jason Becker could ever play this like John Williams, a concert guitarist.

@MikeyIV I Point taken and I agree for the most part. But I think we should also clarify that there's a major difference in the tools used regarding electric vs acoustic. Classical style picking versus plectrum ... completely differ in technical approaches. Although there are techniques in classical that employ -up-down
picking for speedy lines. But for the most part they require a different approach. So even at the highest levels of
skill, there are things that will be more...

@MikeyIV adaptable to either instrument. So an electric player could play with 'classical' precision...many do.
I would venture to say that we would see more of that caliber in jazz players, but in any case, it's a moot point.
We and other posters could go on and on about who could do what... but I agree with you in that Becker had electric guitar skills , not classical. But perhaps in an electrical guitar style Becker could have played this piece with a similar level of precision and smoothness
paultreselli 1 year ago
Classical guitar requires a level of control and accuracy that is not existent for the most part in shred. There are a few exceptions and Becker most likely had the kind of drive and capacity to be able to play high caliber classical works. But this , for the record, is not Jason Becker, it's the great Australian classical guitarist, John Williams.

I felt compelled to say this: Jason Becker was an amazing electric guitarist but
one could never compare shredding with the rigor of classical study.

THIS IS NOT JASON BECKER - I'm pretty sure that this is John Williams version (and a very beautiful slow and clean version I might add). Becker played parts of the 5th caprice like yngwie.

Really amazing. He has a very good musicality, palys the capriccio rather slowly but guitar version probably requires a different speed than the violin one. However, he has a wonderful touch, really good taste for rubatos and accelerandos, crescendo and diminuendo, and also is very clean

@AnnaAnnaYes *sigh*
No, he was not. Becker was a metal guitarist, not a classical musician. To play this requires years of studying and immense dedication, not to mention technical abilities beyond that of most rock musicians.
Becker worshipping is really getting sillier and sillier by the hour...
YngtchieMusic 1 year ago
@YngtchieMusic You are entitled to your opinion. I was a Jason Becker fan
long before his unfortunate demise. Are you saying that guys like MacAlpine
Morse,Vai,Gilbert,Satriani.among others,did'nt study and don't posses dedication
and technical ability?. Classical virtuosos like Eliot Fisk and Manuel Barueco
don't share your view,and are friends with those "ordinary" rockers that i mentioned
However,i do respect your view on this matter.Take Care!
AnnaAnnaYes 1 year ago
@AnnaAnnaYes Where did I mention Morse or MacAlpine, or any of the other guys? No, they do not possess the abilities required to play this piece at this level. I mean, Joe Satriani? He plays classical guitar now? C'mon. Becker was great at what he did, but he was not a classical guitarist.
And since when did Eliot Fisk opine that Jason Becker was a classical guitarist capable of playing Paganini pieces on John Williams' level? Do you have any single smidgen of evidence to back up these claims?
YngtchieMusic 1 year ago
@YngtchieMusic I mentioned them because they are ALL trained musicians
Morse and MacAlpine do posses musical degrees.Belive Wikipedia if you don't
belive me. And check Eliot Fisk's bio while you're at it,he has many friends in
the rock world.Every musician i mentioned has posted thier bios online,they
speak for themselves.
AnnaAnnaYes 1 year ago
@AnnaAnnaYes No, Fisk's bio says nothing of the sort. No, a musical degree does not automatically make you a classical musician on John Williams' level. And no, Wikipedia is not a consistently reliable source of information.
You are simply making a whole bunch of claims that you can't back up with any evidence. You say that Jason Becker was capable Paganini's 24th Caprice on John Williams' level, yet Becker was not a classical guitarist to begin with.
Saying something doesn't make it true.
