Brazilian Guitarist - 320BPM - Flight of the bumblebee

[homobarbie]

320BPM, the speed Rimsky intended it to be played.

[ifabbott]

It is Rachmaninov!

[dnz23]

bumblebee is written by Rimsky Korsakov not Beethoven...

[bosnaisgreat]

This is by rimsky not beethoven :)

[MauvaisAlex]

[aleadisc]

[TheLucasFMundim]

[ricardo84]

[gooogooog111]

[Jazzyteach65]

[Kimling86]

He's giving us the finger!

[geekypoo]

FAKE

[yscb1]

Its not fake, because its in Guinness Book of World Records. Theres a clock down the bottom left side which is hard to read in this video. But if you skip ahead about 2 minutes ahead. You will see the minute hand that it has moved.

@geekypoo just because it's something you cant do doesnt mean its fake...

I've heard Burning in Hell and they did indeed kick mondo ass.

While Jennifer Batten's version of this tune is more to my liking than this was, the pick and lefthand control it takes to play this piece like that is pretty fucking amazing. The only other guy I've seen who might have been able to do this like that was Shawn Lane.

That's just insane!
