  • Amazing, simply amazing..

  • wow.

  • I always look at like 50 different videos of people playing this online and end up coming back here and thinking "Now THIS is Scarborough Fair!" Great job man, 1,000,000% thumbs up.

  • Per-Olov,

    listening to you play this song inspired my day! Thank you!

  • my favourite musik is metal but, i like this too :-)

    Per-Olov

  • sweet as honey, 

  • I regret that i didn't know you sooner

  • :) Don't! You do now! That is what counts. Please keep listening to me.

    Kind regards,

    Per-Olov

  • For those of you who think the available tabs are different from what he's playing, please note the Capo. I purchased them today and they're spot on. The only difference is his gift and mine;) Endeavor to persevere.

  • you got any tabs for this? :)

  • Yes, If you go to my web shop. See link under the video.

    Thanks for listening,

    Per-Olov

  • NIce....I have one complaint ; I notice that with European tab you dont include the bar chords which make it easier to learn the piece........

  • Hi. Thanks. i don't think it is European as such. It is is more a matter if it is intended for classical guitar or acoustic... mine is for classical guitar...

  • splendid!!!

    

  • There is only one problem with this piece, it is too short!!! I could listen to this all day.

  • :-) Thanks a lot! Appreciated.

    per-olov

  • this is beatuful

  • It's not only the arrangements it's the feeling put into every single note.

    You can feel the precision in each one. Virtuoso.

    I play the piano myself but I really like the classical guitar; it's easier to carry around for one thing -) I have to say my favourites are always Bach's.

  • HI, I bought the tabs from your web site for this and it is very different to the arrangement you play, do you have the tabs for this arrangement anywhere?

  • fuck. great.

  • beautifully articulated sir your talents have changed my life. just unbelievable, bravo!!!

  • This was just beautiful. You are very talented and I feel blessed to have heard it

  • Time and again I come to this video and time and again I feel compelled to tell you this is the most beautiful "solo" version I've ever heard.

  • Very good . I hope i will play this song like you :)

  • Sir, you leave me speechless everytime your finger started to move. Haven't seen any guitar player can put more soul in their playing like you do. I'll put my video playing your beautiful pieces soon. I hope you will check it out. Thank you !

  • best guitar version I've heard

  • Thanks a lot! Glad you liked it!

    Per-Olov

  • Love it...... Cant say much more on the matter....... Compliments the origional fantastically!

  • Thank YOU. Appreciated.

    Per-olov

  • Hey, I'm 18 living in England. I have an an entire playlist of your songs which i use to relax too, or gain inspiration from. I am musician myself and i adore the classical guitar. I must say though Per-Olov, this rendition of this song is stunningly beautiful. I won't even waste words trying to describe it. It transports me back hundreds of years it's so haunting. I think the classical guitar is one of the best instruments around.

    Please continue to keep making videos, you are an inspiration.

  • hihi i need a man

  • Awesome!!!

  • As always the emotions that show through your way of playing touches ones soul. Amazingly beautiful.

  • Excellent work! Sounds great. Is there anywhere I can find the sheet music for this version? Thanks :)

  • perfect :DDD

  • i still love it , and i'm 15 years old :))

  • This is a very wonderful song. Thank you for putting this on YouTube. I love this song so much. -Adelle

  • my favorite version on youtube... powerfull silence!!

  • Per-Olav,

    Any chance you could record the tabbed version?

    Thanks again for all the inspiration (and the tabs!)

    Dave

  • Greetings from Australia... Sir, you are a genious.. Keep doing good stuff..

    -Tim

  • Beautiful. Thank you very much!

  • Wonderful version and played with much emotion.

    Thanks!

  • Love it. I want to learn songs like that. Congratulations, you play very good!

  • Bra spelat :D

  • I'm a 17 year old aspiring to be a classical guitarist. It's so hard without a teacher. But hearing this song renews my passion for every time I get discouraged. Now I'm going back to learning Classical Gas. One note string, one fret at a time. Next is Scarborough Fair. Thank you. :)

  • Your playing brought me to tears... Simply Outstanding. I try to play the original arrangement on my acoustic guitar but this one has more feeling. Your song reminded me of making breakfast with my parents on a cold winter's morning when I was a child-- Funny how songs can instantly evoke certain memories...

  • your playing is really touching and emotional

    how do you but such a silent emotion in this song?

  • I almost fell asleep. so peaceful.

  • Beautiful arrangement. Thank you

  • fuck me that was sweet , 

  • I'm 15 years old. This inspired me. Thank you very much

  • Could you advise on the the type of guitar to buy for a complete beginner to play this type of music. I am 58 years old, should I buy steel or nylon string, and what size body. Thanks for the beautiful music.

  • Maravilhosa apresentação!

  • BEAUTIFULLLL<3

  • epic play... =")

    i need to practice hard

  • Similar quiet but mighty style , like chet atkins ! Love it :-*

  • you can send tabs for me ..please....ybx11@yahoo.com.vn­....thank very much

  • i love you

    

  • I have to say i have never liked this song, but i have watched your version of this and i have watched it over and over again. Thank you so much for sharing this with youtubers. I really enjoy your Stairway to Heaven and Nothing Else Matters arrangements. There is a song that i would really like to hear you make a version of which was composed by (Paddy Sun) called (Sunflower). Would you consider making a version of this song. :0

  • Excellent! 

  • i'm 18 and dream of playing things like this as i progress in the future love the style

  • You have an awesome talent!!!! Thanks for sharing!!

  • Hello Great Per-Olov

    This is a great version of this song I love it!

    If you want listen my version !

    Giuseppe Corso

  • How can you downvote this?

  • they're retarded . such easy question to answer

  • what is wrong with people who disliked this ???

  • Interesting arrangement. Lovely resonance on your playing. Is that natural or are you amped up in any way?

  • I used to play like 6 hours a day 4 days a week next by school when i was 15-18, i loved it. Then less and less and less...... life has took it away. I'm 35 five now, watching your videos, the way you play....made me remember what I have loved so much and made me blow the dust away from my faithful guitar.

    Thank You Per

  • Could you play Lord of the Rings?

  • Superb :) Bri

  • Wonderful playing. Nothing nicer than classical guitar well played. What do you think of the great Chet Atkins music?

  • Ich ermüde mich nicht.

  • One of the most beautiful executions of this song. Really splendid!

    Great arrangement!

  • Beautiful, thank you.

  • Great arrangement. I think I might want to learn this version.

  • A gorgeous, subtle and evocative performance!

  • amazing

  • very beautiful....it think there are no words to describe how well you played...literally bought tears to my eyes

  • Very nice Per-Olov! - CARY

  • too bad there aren't more young people searching out stuff like this, thanks for the video, your playing is wonderful!

  • :-)Thanks!

    Per-Olov

  • @AndanteLargo im 15, and i love songs like this, good job!

  • @destructovision trust me, some of us are here :)

  • @destructovision Not true!  We studied this in my Theory class and I like it

  • @destructovision I'm only 13 :D

  • @destructovision im 19, is that young enough?

  • @destructovision

    im young, dont lose hope.

  • @destructovision I'm a young guy who loves guitar so much. And I searched for this song like mad on youtube and other forums...

  • @destructovision I'm 19 and i find this music fantastic!

  • @destructovision what do u mean there arent more young ppl searching out this stuff?...im 18 yrs old, if im not young then i dont know who is :D

  • @destructovision, I beg to differ, As a 16 year old i have immersed myself in the beautiful classical music and finger style guitar genres. To me there is just such a satisfaction from them that other music just can not come close to. 2 years electric before making the transition to classical and finger style, for 5 years i haven't regretted it. This is a dying art, I want to keep it alive.

  • @destructovision you are wrong ... im 23 years old and i have seen a lot of videos from mr. Per olov ... and i also play classical gutiar too ... there is a lot of young people who are listening to classic ..

  • @destructovision yes, guys, this was a VERY ignorant comment. but give this person a break. He / she probably just found out about youtube and is just so excited! be sure to fwd fwd fwd fwd fwd this to all your friends destructo!

  • @destructovision well i'm 15 and i was so happy to have found this....it's one of my favorite songs...so mwuahahaha :P

  • hi there... i'm from argentina, south america. (sorry for my english, is not that good.)

    i've listen to your version of scarborough fair and you really make me cry.

    you really make me fly away of my body, i was THERE... in the XII century.. watching the sea, sitting on a bench, in scarborough.

    thanks for all. really. greetings from argentina.

  • Hola! Muchas gracias!

    Thank you for your kind words.

    Salu2 desde Suecia.

    Per-Olov

  • outstanding work Per, i am i violinist of 15 years and love your work, it is good to see someone else who really enjoys and is passionate about music, out of intrest how long have u been playing?

    tom

  • Hi there. Thanks for your comment.

    I have played all my life since I was 7 years old. I knew I was going to make a living from playing already then.

    Please keep playing you too... it's the best after love...

    Per-Olov

  • What I appreciate most at you it's not your technic (you have a very good one indeed) it's the way you play with calm and love, and I think you are like that also in the real life, responding to all comments in such a nice way.

    I'll try to be the same even as a teenager!

    Mihai

  • Dear Mihai,

    Thank you for your kind words.I am honored. I try to be a loving person just as my music. Sometimes it is hard though...:-)

    I hope that you will try too. (I can see you already succeeded.)

    All the best,

    Per-Olov

  • @AndanteLargo I will try, I have a friend that will help me a lot, my classic guitar;)

    Only good,

    Mihai

  • A very beautiful cover piece. what key did you play in sir?

  • Thank you. It is in c-minor.

    Kindly,

    Per-Olov

  • You, Per-Olov, made me get myself an acoustic guitar after years of playing the electric guitar! :) Amazing video!

  • WOW! That is great to know! I am happy for you. I wish you lots of fun!

    Per-Olov

  • honestly.. how could someone dislike this video?..

  • Helt briljant.

  • You playing is briliant and the Capo adds a massive majestic tonality to the piece.

  • I am trying to learn your version by watching you play, and I see you have a capo on, but I need to know if you are in standard tuning. If not is there a special way to tune the guitar?

    By the way, your rendition is hauntingly beautiful. It made me cry.

  • Great! Yes, it is in standard tuning.

    Good luck.

    Per-Olov

  • @AndanteLargo Thank you.

  • I cannot stop listening to this beautiful piece, WOW is all I can say.

  • what a great name - WalkingSlowly

  • Hi Peo, I must have browsed through your channel and listened to your renditions a thousand times but somehow this piece managed to slip through. I´m glad I found it. Just great! Thank you for your sharing your music. Health and peace. Paul

  • Hi Paul. Thank you very much for your kind words and for listening to me. I am happy you 'found' this in the end... :-)

    Have a great day.

    Per-Olov

  • Beautiful! Thank you so much!

    Kind regards,

    Per-Olov

  • Thank you neillian!

    Kind regards,

    Per-Olov

  • Hello Mr Kindgren

    This is a gorgeous video!

    I brought your version but it's hard for me to learn it. Would you mind making another video where you play the version which is buyable on your site for the better learning?

    I'm sure many will thank you!

    Sincerely,

    Alex

  • Mesmerizing, thankyou! 

  • The ones who disliked this, are deaf or what? Its great as always

  • Dear Sir, whenever I am not happy then I listen to your music. It makes me feel better. All the best to you!

    Tran

  • Hi tran,

    sorry for the late reply...

    I am happy you like my music and are listening to me.

    Kind regards,

    Per-Olov

  • Brilliant and breathtaking! Love the dynamics.

  • Very cool? I don't know this song.. What is?

  • hÎhi_Áný_güýs_wÁNt_tö_chàt_wÌt­h_mÉ

  • The most soothing piece I've heard in ages.

  • Hi Per-Olov,

    I just purchased the music for Scarborough Fair last night on your website. I am so inspired by your work and your guitar. Both are filled with beauty and grace unlike anything I have witnessed on the web.

    Sincerely

    John

  • OK, so now I set my guitar on fire and am tying a noose with the strings. I always thought that song had to have been written by virgin lace makers in the highest abbey in the Swiss Alps. Maybe I dreamt that...I dunno. Is there a more tragically beautiful song anywhere? Huh, is there? I know, you're gonna say The Theme from Shaft. Oh yes, I didn't forgot about that one. That's a real tear jerker. But "Borrowed Scabs and Hair" is much more delicate and quixotic. Don't you agree? Of course you do.

  • i'll learn it now in my guitarschool. i hope i can play as good as you soon !

  • Love it! I thank you for the post.

  • brilliant!!. Congratz from Barcelona.

  • Tout simplement magnifique!:p

    

  • Thank you you're doing Just great thanks ........ I come from Germany Sorry my Englich is not as good

  • Nice work as usual. One of the best solo guitarists on YouTube.

  • Most beautiful song ever... Full of emotion and your version is awesome ! -you can also listen to mine just by clicking my name-

  • Nobody plays as clean as you.

    You play with the dynamics of pure Love.

    God Bless!

  • Like, Offcourse there's alot of ways you can play Scarborough Fair, I myself, need to know a much easyer version for my guitar lessons.

    Yet this, is also very beautiful.

  • verry goods. can you send to me tabs of this song ? email rubirose25@yahoo.com thannks you

  • Very well done

  • Hi, could you explain your finger picking? I.e. are you playing mainly rest strokes or free strokes? The fingers of your right hand look so relaxed, yet they're giving the solid sound of rest strokes. Thanks for the Tab, I'm learning your version right now.

  • i could cry hearing you!

    i have always wished to play guitar like this!

    i've taught myself, but eventhough i am brtter than a lot of my friends

    i don't think i can teach myself to play as gracefully and beautifule as you do.

    maybe one day i'll have enough money to take the lessons.....

    thanks alot!

  • beautiful. A lesson would be great

  • It sounds so.. Full. Like every guitar should be. Respect.

  • I love it a lot!

    From Spain, all my support

  • wonderful. nothing else to say

  • hey! i really like your covers, but i'm just wondering, what should i search for in ultimate-guitar to get the tabs for this verison?

  • Absolutely beautiful!

    Now, if Nana Mouskouri was singing this to Per-Olov and his impeccable guitar play, life might be complete.

  • Wow this is truly amazing!

  • hi can u please send me the tabs, thanks

  • hi can u please send me the tabs for this song, thanks

  • Magnifique! I've got goosebumps hearing you play.

  • waaahhh.... Fantastic song, incredible player....
