I disagree. The rap version of this clearly is the best one.

[gutobr10]

There are a lot of guitar-version of this song in the net, but for me this is the best one. Every time I want to listen this song, I always listen a lot of versions, but at the end I have to listen this version, because it is very, very good. Congratulations Lucarelli.

[doomsday1216]

great job, now time for the third movement :D

[RSorbyGuitars]

awesome!!!!!!!!!!

I'm quite new to fingerstyle guitar so if you guys could check out my channel I would really appreciate it :D

[OrganaiserXP]

[SteveStarcher]

Hi Michael. I happened upon this video some 6 months ago and decided to learn this song. I uploaded my version of it today. Thanks for the inspiration!

[MrMesaDude]

Niro is doing a fine job on this peice.......

[crackersXnXcheese]

Sounds beautiful in guitar. But we all know that nothing beats the piano in playing this wonderful sonata <3

[drdiegoguedes]

niiice!

[drdiegoguedes]

quem não curtiu tem inveja só pode... perfeito...

[2ni2808]

A PARODY ? I WOULD DO BETTER BY WHISTLING....

[Jo0ey1]

Great job! beautiful!

[TheSchmitzrunner]

this song is so hard on guitar

[zergling18]

Amazing work Michael. This song is so beautiful played on guitar.

[jason007denney]

Beautiful

[honey104b]

go here to listen to this on piano :)

/watch?v=XRnqe5PvH-s

[illegalguitarsolos]

sounds just so very nice and chilled

[0live0wire0]

thanks i was able to learn from it. Was trying to play it in B because i could use the low E as a bass instead of a D in the beginning, but i see it's better and easier playing it in A. And a great performance too.

[bebexoxo1000]

amazing! you're soo talented!

[PsychedelicFunkLover]

very sweeet  thank you *)

[LucasRacing2]

Increible! muy bueno :)

[GeorgeBezerra27]

Muito bonito.  :]

[ConFezsi0N]

Please take a listen to my classical guitar solo /watch?v=a9pp2knqntc :) thank you

[silveryt2]

240p sounds really horrible. Michael, you're doing yourself a disservice. The minimum acceptable quality for music is 480p.

[michaellucarelli]

Yes I agree, the CD sounds so much better. @silveryt2

[TheMeistereckhart]

@michaellucarelli In other words: BUY MY CD ! ! ! ! :P

Well, we all need our daily bread, don't we....

[miguelbaptista]

@michaellucarelli

Congratulations on your playing.

But the fact that the CD sounds better doenst go against having a nice quality video on youtube. It is, indeed, a disservice.

[TySpoonz]

@silveryt2 In 2006 youtube was restricted to 240p.

[2ni2808]

@silveryt2 Thanks for your comment. You spoke my mind.

[flyhi94]

@silveryt2

480p was not available in 2008

[MrPhatkent]

wow!!! sooooo beautiful!

[kssork]

1 op 14 is not a very hard song to play on the guitar

2 the beret, glasses and faux turtle neck arent fooling anybody.

[Angelus225]

@kssork its not about the difficulty its about the skill.

[kssork]

@Angelus225 true, but you have to admit it would have to be a little better to pull off the beret.

[JHall91]

haha 400 people were grossed out by his nails

[themonstera]

wow, first time the top two comments are both amazing, and relevant

[FOJCFWL]

Ohhhh ! I so want to learn this on the guitar now !!!!!!!

[Thientailapdi]

god said "used tu be Beethoven"

[zebulebu]

400 people need their ears syringed

[jchilford]

stunning, absolutely breath takingly beautiful

[melodygir1]

so beautiful

[1mattbusa]

I been looking for 2 extra fingers so I can play that fluid. No luck yet...

[iceburg008]

Awesome!!

[fisheyman42]

One day, I will be able to play this on my guitar. That I swear!

[ilovepinatas3179]

love the style of playing as a classical lute, instead of guitar as it is currently played

[MichaelAliasMrFloppy]

really nice played, wonderfull feeling!

[sandwich451]

cool

[ZombieVampireWolfman]

Bravissimo Maestro ;) very nicely played.

[MrChriss820]

now play the 3rd movement

[jakjakbarreda]

i guess 400 people cant play guitarXD

[AKIRTV9]

Read the tags! No Steve jobs or spelberg here at all I think :)

[TOMBSTONESTAN]

About 10 years ago there used to be a version of this on TV classic channel. A guy playing guitar and a spanish type girl dancer. It was fantastic, im sure i didnt dream it.Can anyone help?

[pingaface2689]

Im actually transcribing the exact piano piece into a playable version for the guitar however it is still for advanced players since some of the chord changes are quite challenging, drop me an email if youd like a copy as a guitar pro 4 or 5 file or just standard notation with the tabs... Warr.nerve@yahoo.com

[manmademan1983]

@pingaface2689

in GP 6 its in the examples [full ver]

[MultiLucky43]

Intelligent + Wicked, awesome guitar skills = Steve jobs.

[:

[beartune]

Oh wow. Spectacularly done! So very beautifully performed.. The art in your hands is gracious!

[SammehEatWorld]

STFU AND ENJOY THE MUSIC WHILE IT LASTS! THIS PURE EPICNESS WILL BE GONE BEFORE YOU KNOW IT! And it will be replaced by people who dont even sing...

[33COOLMAN33]

btw ppl i made guitar pro tab of this i can send if wanna learn it

[Aeroreido]

@33COOLMAN33 yes please, coul you send it to me?? (E-mail: artur-tumenev@gmx.net)

[jessilovesyou1000]

[deworld17]

lunnaya sonnata na gitare.. vpervie usliwala! i ponravilos.. =) prostonejnost etoy melodii cuvstvuetsa bolwe na pianine, nejeli na gitare..

[simplestencils]

"Quasi una fantasia"

[UKBMBG]

I play this but the version which is one octave lower, but only to about page 2 ish. Which one would be better to play, and should I learn this one instead, this one makes use of the whole fretboard I think. Thanks for any replies/ responses. :)

[loonitoonz1]

love it



[iamnotaterrorist]

Can I buy the sheet music of this transcription? I don't find it available on your web site anywhere.

[toxicapathy]

@iamnotaterrorist dude you can find this online. Just google the tabs for it.

[Vitorolla]

foi ótimo mas a guitarra q é bom nada

[IDahomz]

sonata or elantra HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[RenSuper]

Me gusta, gracias senor .

[sexiibabie11]

People don't respect art now and days i'm 13 and i love this song so much <3 Its a classic

[SR061065]

Wspaniale!!!

[YuvalIsHere]

im learning it now (in guitar) and this version is nice but i cant feel the emotion in it. it kinda ruins most of the meaning of the song.

its like he is playing it just to show he is talented.

[thejojoshabadoo]

@YuvalIsHere If you want to hear Beethoven playing it, listen to Beethoven xD

[kevenman5]

can it be play on 12 strings guitar?

[swanski100]

@kevenman5 its more difficult to fingerpick on a 12 string but it can be done

[clubkevin11]

and god said "let their be sonata" and it was good

[lLlamamaNl]

@clubkevin11 Twas not God who said let there be sonata, but Beethoven 

[MrShnizzle69]

@lLlamamaNl Is there a difference?

[fp1234]

@lLlamamaNl, but God created Beethoven ;P

[iceburg008]

@lLlamamaNl Don't forget to thank him for music xD.

[Angryification]

@lLlamamaNl Beethoven IS God!

[zaklanosrceVEVO]

@lLlamamaNl

Mr obvious

[mdelair420]

@lLlamamaNl True but these men were men of god..peace

[DojiStyle]

@lLlamamaNl But it was God who said "let there be Beethoven" and he was great

[aigorzap23]

@lLlamamaNl So he was right ;)

[ClassicRockMan95]

@clubkevin11 god doesn't exist... only beethoven

[Muffinzeshlongun]

@ClassicRockMan95

Beethoven has been dead for ages...he doesn't exist anymore.

[KainzMusic]

Pure brilliance!

[floxnu]

just simply Amazing..

[MrStupid93dream]

really great thing .. can't find words to express this !!!

[frenzyme99]

Brilliant!

[rups334]

Great performance.

[DrFrankensteam]

Brilliant!

[poozank]

terrible quality like listening to a fucking gramophone

[0pteryx]

You should re-upload this now that YouTube offers much higher quality audio/video.

[cswagner2]

beautiful!

[tekkulubab]

soo good!

[Thientailapdi]

I paly guitar badly but I played on piano

[kime30stm]

Beautiful sounds, thanks...

[10020023]

I never know this sonata can be played on guitar, amazing

I wish I had his skill

[pknnmd]

i played this song in piano, and recently found this maestro playing the song very smoothly, i think he is a legend

[SimulatorOfRinzler]

What can I say? Maestro :3

[MarthaStout0202]

This is one of my favorite pieces to play on the piano. It doesn't sound difficult, but it is! I think I like it even better on guitar. I'm glad I discovered you sir!

[alldiar]

389 people have no respect for classical music :P

Sir, you play very well and from experience this is a very difficult song to master.

[cacachui]

amazing! gives me the chills!

[sloppiexx]

My Ochem study just got a bit more exciting

[helckler]

I'd like to listen to you performing this music in a portuguese guitar, it'd be very nice !

[lavoiepanaro]

The passage from 2:30 to 2:55 was played with the wrong rhythm. There are tuplets, so it's neccessary to be careful with on-beats. You've played this as if there were duplets, so the accentuation got displaced.

[djmotivationclipsy]

It's what I was looking for from a guitar tonight

[Shanna216]

I love this song...  It's even more beautiful on guitar. It has more depth and emotion. Love it!

[rockwitchdrunk]

mysterious

[djazz90]

Steve Jobs plays guitar:)

[solidus311]

@djazz90 Zombie steve jobs.

[Sumbohdee512]

@djazz90 *played

[getawayred]

@djazz90 Played*

[TheDevineBeing]

@djazz90 Forget Steve Jobs, its Steven Spielberg more like. :)

[SeriousSam2111]

@djazz90 Played guitar :D

[FeR453CA]

@djazz90 fuck steve jobs

[jihadsuitcase]

@djazz90 No he doesnt. Hes dead. Just sayin.

[biggreenblob]

@djazz90 not anymore he doesnt.

[keeker99]

This song is really pretty by itself, and it sounded even better on the guitar.

[Jura3326]

очень красиво!!!

[woodsnext15]

@Jura3326 how do i do make these letters on my keyboard?

[Hitmanz21]

This man is the man who proved all orchestra pianist who would put the guitar to Shame by stating it wasn't possible to play concertos or piano solo songs like this one on guitar and look who's laughing now , thanks to this man he proved the guitar can even compete with the piano and proved once and for all that it was possible

[byrd5d]

bravo

[TinNz0731]

I quited smoking weed by listening to this instead.

[Mrxiiijojjo]

@TinNz0731 you make it sound like it's bad ?

[xciniqk]

@Mrxiiijojjo are you dumb? he means that the music is so good it makes him high

[Mrxiiijojjo]

@xciniqk chill dude i get it now

[caitlynkorin]

@TinNz0731 why not smoke weed and listen to it at the same time.

[TTomeRR223]

could you make a video which I will be able to learn it with ?

[arco25verizon]

my eyes were watering while listening to this, this is so splendid

[timone1002]

guitar tabs any one?????

[tikhung01]

389 dislike? Nice try Justin Bieber

[SuperGaleford]

389 Lady Gaga fans stumbled their incoherent butts in here and pressed the dislike button.

[nobodylikesnaggers]

standard tuning? drop d?

[quazusss]

@nobodylikesnaggers standard tuning :) I know, because i can play about 1/4 of this ;) here you have quite accurate tabs: azchords.com/b/beethoven-tabs-­420/moonlightsonata-tabs-4340.­html On my profile you can watch me playing 1:40 of Moonlight Sonata from those tabs ;) Already working on rest of it :p

[BurningNeons]

How dare the people don't respect how this song sounds.

[13anita2009]

389 People don't respect how beautiful it sounds

[zzubuzz]

Very good rendition, evan if I couldn't master it like you I'd like to pick up some of this from tablature. Would like to play it clean on electric guitar and I'm sure it's been done much so, but I wonder why there are not many famous versions of it. We live in a "Jack and Diane" world on mainstream radio, you know music meant to numb and dumb, not enlighten and inspire like classical piano/guitar.

[arghydoodles]

How many BPM is this?

[Jura3326]

очень красиво ребят!

[backroadsandmoonligh]

Absolutely amazing!

[Oliy92466]

Great music!!!

BRAVO!!!

Olga/

[Mskarenjina]

Isn't this acoustic guitar? o.O

[JoeYampolsky]

@Mskarenjina Of course, it is.

[JPGallagher18]

As a guitar piece, what grade would you say this is? (If played as well as Lucarelli of course).

[michaellucarelli]

it is challenging. But i learned it when i had only been playing classical guitar for about three years. 30 plus years ago. @JPGallagher18

[JPGallagher18]

@michaellucarelli Ah right, was just wondering, thanks. Really great performance by the way, was the reason I learnt this!

[Daniafterdeath]

@JPGallagher18 It's quite easy
