Que maravilla, genial ejecusión, te conosco a través del doctot Heber Matinez del Perú soy su paciente de muchos años.

[NeolardoPwn]

Such a beautiful piece and hands down the best guitarist i've seen to play Chopin

[HectorAndresMayoral]

Though I was expecting the repetition of the tempo giusto after the second piu mosso, she still played it heavenly!

[ernestomscn]

I want the score of this version...!!!

Quiero la partitura!!!

[mayooshXP]

Wow...

I started playing guitar when i was 12. now i'm almost 17, and i will receive this piece's sheet tomorrow. I can't wait!

I couldn't find a better version of this valse than yours. your interpretation is absolutely outstanding. I wish I will be able with a lot of effort to play as beautiful as you play.

When did you start playing classical guitar?

I wish I could have started earlier! But i guess working hard is the solution :) I practice everyday as much is I can !

Thank you!!!

[chechacaceres]

@mayooshXP Could you please give me the sheet somehow or a link ?? I'm dying to learn this beautiful piece but the version I play is way too simplistic and rubbish. Please !

[mayooshXP]

@chechacaceres

I don't mind giving you the sheet!

even though it's funny, my teacher wrote all the notes down, she couldn't find Virginia's arrangement so she sat and wrote everything down by ear. No mistakes it's unbelievable! but I'm waiting for her to give me her final version so it will be organized cause right now it's pretty messy. so I'll let you know! all the credit to this amazing teacher- Orly Lavan

She has a channel by the way.

[chechacaceres]

@mayooshXP By ear ? :O that is amazing. Thanks for replying ! add me on facebook Cesar Caceres thanks and please send it :) or chechacaceres@hotmail.com

[mayooshXP]

@chechacaceres

can you just tell me what your profile picture looks like, cause I mistakenly added someone else! lol

and I will soon receive the piece :)

[chechacaceres]

@mayooshXP haha yea its me with a girl smiling, my shirt has a little star. Cesar Caceres only, no weird signs or anything. I tried putting the link but youtube doesnt allow me

[ebaychatter0]

at some point, i was seeing Ms Luque briefly using the right pinky to either mute the ring or as support for other fingers. Not being a classical guitarist, I wonder if this is a widely used technique.

[ebaychatter0]

this is probably as closest as someone can get to a piano interpretation. Love it.

[Zingoleb]

I've been listening to various versions of this piece on youtube for the last few hours. This is, by far, my favourite version. Literally brought tears to my eyes, which is the first time that's happened in a long time. Thank you.

[Bluetooth6483]

Impressive! But a little bit too sentimental to my taste.

[joeyrockplayer]

@Bluetooth6483 its chopin what do you expected??

[VandendoolStudio]

incredible. Virginia is this your arrangement, and if so are you selling it?

[RangRing68]

Best guitar version of this ever!

[guarama14]

Virginia I like your arrangement, did you wrote it, and where can I get it?

[Liantotjahjoputro]

Really great Chopin in Guitar....Super..... Bravo

Lianto tjahjoputro

[Jorge426Malmborg]

Bien, y, seria mejor con un poquito mas de consideracion a las pausas.

[leepokman]

this is insane

[furknee06]

I need this score

[PianoZros]

Chopin!!

[nemothan]

who's arr this piece?

[pecas771]

Holla. Felicitaciones por esta magnifica interpretacion, por este arreglo inpecable y por el sentimiento tan profundo que transmite al tocar la pieça. He visto poca gente con latecnica que ustede tiene. Dios la bendiga

[hpentimalli]

WOW. Impresionante. Una de las mejores piezas de la historia en un arreglo e interpretación brillantes.

[JaimeMano91]

Vaya pasada! Muy lograda, en serio! enhorabuena!.

[danghungtran]

wow super good.

[capocamilo]

deberias hacer algo para que al version tuya aparesca primera cuando se busca 'chopin valse 2 guitarra', porque estuve un buen rato buscandola y por cierto opino que tuya es la mejor, al menos de las que hay en youtube

[bushinarin]

Very good! This is just about the most impressive thing I've ever seen in my life!

[Kyrios79]

Simplemente hermoso...

[guyincognito84]

Holy shit woman....

[csguy12]

OH MY FUCKING GOD!

Amazing....

[polcamara]

Excelente performance.

Felicitaciones!

[delameu]

Best guitar rendition

[Armyswat1]

Por cierto, para poder escucharlo, sería fantástico que lo grabara en video y lo subiera a su canal, si no es mucho pedir, muchas gracias.

[Armyswat1]

Disculpe, virtuosa mujer, soy músico aficionado y acabo de hacer un arreglo del nocturno en C# menor opus postumas de Chopin, y desearía que me diera el honor de escuchar ese arreglo ejecutado por usted. Lo siento demasiado complicado, y a pesar de mis estudios de guitarra clásica, no he podido ejecutarlo yo. Gracias por una posible respuesta.

[Princessaluque7]

Muy bonito! Tenemos el mismo apellido.. Luque :D

[chechacaceres]

Es ud muy talentosa! Estoy considerando estudiar musica gracias a ud. Tengo 16 años. Y ya termine de sacar esta cancion, pero no es nada comparado con la complejidad de su version. Lamentablemente yo me enseñe solo a tocar guitarra y no puedo trabscribir canciones. Pronto ingresare a el conservatorio de guatemala para aprender. Asi q solo queria preguntarle si no tendra una tablatura de esta cancion hecha ? se lo agradeceria mucho =D

[hmmm4353]

This is the best arrangement of this piece I have ever heard! Is there anywhere that I can buy the sheetmusic?

[ratatracapampam]

Es refrescante encontrar algo como esto, felicitaciones.

[Mercurio2688]

Hola Virginia, felicidades esto es impreionante. Publicaste ya la verisón? estoy muy interesado.

Un Saludo desde Madrid

[pablistax]

Divino...

[darthjz]

do you have sheet music for this piece?

I would like to get it if possible.

[ttttln]

Oh, Virginia! It's quite exquisite! I thought it's impossible for this piece to be transcribed and played as beautifully as you did on the guitar. You're really a genius! Thank you so much for sharing this and other postings also!

[jmourat]

AUNQUE NO ME GUSTA CHOPIN EN LA GUITARRA

DEBO DE RECONOCER QUE ES IMPRESIONANTE

CON LA TÉCNICA DE ESTA CHICA. ¡ENHORABUENA!

[FIRMANTE]

Virginia, tienes pensada la posibilidad de publicar la transcripción. en alguna editorial?... llevo meses soñando con poder tocarla, y siempre estoy dándole vueltas.

[jorgebarnet]

Virginia no que es mejor si tu interpretación o tu transcripción, pero con esos 2 talentos la guitarra tiene una gran aliada!

Felicitaciones sinceras y los mejores deseos desde Funchal, Portugal

[Mercurio2688]

Esto es realmente impresionante. No solo por lo logrado de la interpretación, sino porque ha sabido transmitir el espíritu de Chopin: virtuosísimo técnico y sensibilidad.

Piezas así hacen del mundo un lugar mejor.

Saludos desde Madird.

[grekito]

Virginia tocas como Las Diosas, como me gustaria que Dios me hubiera dado ese don..me compre tu cd esta excelente

Que Dios te bendiga:-)

[guweck]

En piano es relativamente fácil de tocar. En guitarra parece dificilísima. Excelente transcripción y ejecución. Felicitaciones.

[ivoldragon]

que sentimiento y q virtuosidad,

[monstering89]

woww es algo facinante realmente una transcripcion muy bien echa quisiera saber si ya habras publicado estas partituras y si no es asi pues si ubiera alguna forma de ke ma las facilitaras; te felisito me encanto tu interpretacion y tu transcripcion

[MrRenessance]

Удивительно! Божественно! Я очарован и ваьсом и игрой и самой исполнительницей! Браво, Виргиния! Это настоящий Шонен. Я уверен, что он сам играл именно так, с тоакой интонацинй. И он был бы очень приятно поражён, услышав эту вещь в исполнении гитары!

[oemadrid]

Increible!!

Excelente interpretación y transcripción.

[williamyashiro]

que lindo video.

[savemyplaylist]

Guitar is so much harder than piano. Very impressive

[azphael]

@savemyplaylist I disagree with you, even if I play the guitar. Try playing this piece correctly with a piano, it's tough work (and I don't even think to Liszt studies or Beethoven sonatas).

[savemyplaylist]

@azphael eh, all the action to the string is taken care by the hammer on the piano. To create the sounds one simply presses a button, however on guitar it's a task just to resonate the string. Right-hand fingering has 1000x as much variation than piano.

[savemyplaylist]

@azphael That's why you can find videos of 5-year old's playing this piece on piano, but not on guitar.

[darkangel01121992]

wow... you are AMAZING!!! :)

[BenFrancDes]

Unbelievable!



[gordda77]

Una interpretación maravillosa!!!

[318825768]

Beautiful.

Chopin had a beautiful way to create music.

Melancholic and Sad.

Sad that he died so early.

[lsimo]

Hola Virginia,

Es un privilegio poder oir tu musica, especialmente este valse de Chopin, creo que es una obra que interpretas y dominas a la perfeccion. Cuanta belleza, cuando vayas al cielo, le vas a tener que tocar esta obra a Dios, pero por ahora nosotros la disfrutamos. Dios nte bendiga mi amor...

[manolofalcon]

el combo completo, es tan linda y toca tan bien...

[thaako]

dobra si...



[lessthan427]

Her performance is so wonderful that I bought her CD. I've listened to it again and again.

[ghostwheelghost]

@lessthan427 This is a wonderful performance. Clearly the speed changes are taken from Rachmaninov's interpretation and recording of this waltz for classic guitar. Bravo! I could listen to this over and over. Just brilliant.

[lessthan427]

@ghostwheelghost Thank you for giving me the information. I have not yet known about Rachmaninov.

Her performance is incredible and beautiful.

[elaguilaruge]

Nothing is more beautiful than a guitar, save perhaps two. Fredric Chopin

[milfil2000]

perfection

[BernietheShredder]

WOW...how does she do those arpeggios so fast!!! Amazing...truly amazing :D

[CUATRODOMINGUEZ]

VIRGINIA LUQUE! No me canso de mirar tus interpretaciones, estoy enamorado de vos, de la pasión que pones al tocar, todo encaja, tu vestimenta, tu presencia. Sos genial. Espero alguna vez poder asistir a un concierto tuyo. Siempre pongo algo tuyo cuando estoy en el trabajo para relajarme. Soy musico, me gusta tocar mucho AGUSTIN BARRIOS y hasta que te escuche y te vi no me gustaban las mujeres con la guitarrista. Sos genial.-

[jedufour]

Extraordinario... magistral... estoy verdaderamente asombrado... ojalá estés algún día por Argentina para poder apreciar tu talento y tu arte.

[tootlootler]

Quite brilliant.

[cogedorbarato]

la verdad que es muy impresionante, virginia. No pensaste en tocarla con el tempo original? es decir, mas calma y melancolica como en el piano.

[filiprem]

Dziękuję! Gracias! Arrangements of Chopin for guitar have something magical, but this one is supernatural :-)

[ScottyintheSky]

Holy Cow. I'm blown away.

[tidurmiring]

it seems that your playing is competing with your pretty face

[cjro2012]

Muy bonito. Gracias a esta exelente guitarrista me he motivado a montar esta obra de oido y con la partitura original de piano transportandola a Am..ME encanta este tono a mi parecer mejor que Em..

[miguelmsoler]

Quiero tocarla!!!!!!! Se consigue la transcripción en alguna parte?

[Orsonpitbull]

que acustica ese teatro x DIOS!!!

[TomasMolinaComposer]

Virginia, eres una guitarrista maravillosa. Qué técnica, qué tono, qué belleza.

[MEYDE2]

oh my god. amazing! bravo!!

[algersy1985]

Esta bravazo solo en la cerrada difiere pero especatcular.

[marcoah1986]

whose arrangement is this ?

[edo77edo]

I like the gesture she does on 1:07 with her head moving front. :)

[Yamitsuki1987]

I can play the first 8 bars.... YAAAAY :D As soon as I figured out the whole piece I will make a tab of this version. It will take long cause I only started playing 2 years ago (being 23 ). I think she plays it a bit reckless tenpowise but the dynamics she gets from that guitar is amazinG!

[edo77edo]

I agree with you but the tab thing. I got the tabs from the net a couple of months ago. I don't think that it is the same compared to the one she plays but if you're craving for a tab, there already is one.

[ELThenN]

Excelente

[workedant]

Wow, she is so good and expressive. Reminds me of Segovia's playing. This is so beautiful and musical. Bravo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[edo77edo]

@workedant She is his student :)

[workedant]

Wow. Found this from here site: "A native of Cadiz, Spain, Ms. Luque began playing the guitar when she was four, started formal training when she was six, and gave her first concert at the age of seven. After hearing her play, the legendary Spanish guitarist, Andres Segovia, invited Ms. Luque to study privately with him. She received her Master's degree in Spain and at Segovia's suggestion came to America where she also received a Master's degree at the Juilliard School in New York City."

[workedant]

So many players these days play the guitar as though it's a piano and that's really sad. It's the only instrument, that one touches the strings with 2 hands and can also make vibrato at the same time. We really need to go back to the Segoviaesque way of expressing through our instrument.

[OktoberStorm]

Wouldn't it be better to look forward in interpretation rather than backwards?

[gatocabrito]

Excellent in every regard!

[Aducal]

Amazing player!

[jcsorez]

Maestra felicidades!

Perdone, hay alguna manera de obtener copia de esta partitura?

[guitarclasic4693]

siempre he dicho que los valses clasicos suenan mejor en guitarra

y en esta pieza romantica se nota la diferencia tremendamente que en piano

(mi opinion)

[jomacanvi]

es grandioso¡gracias Virginia!

[sacredplanet1]

Me siento profundamente enamorado; la musica, la guitarra, y, Virginia tan bella, que aqui  se convierten en misterio, en belleza y revelacion.

[karmmaguitar]

uff que hermosura... No pensé que existía esta versión, me hace sentir orgulloso de ser guitarrista.

[milfil2000]

super!

[JoeyNYHT]

This is really amazing!!!!!!

[JEROMEVALLOT]

I have ever been dreaming of playing this piece but unfortunatly I am a guitarist... But now I know it's possible !!!! who find the partiton ??? who transcript it ??? Answer please !!!

[AnDany138]

Absolutely beautiful. best arrangement I have ever hear. If anyone can tell me where to purchase. greatly appreciated.

[profejuanpablo1]

HEY Virginia,, ERES UNA MAESTRA DE LA T`SCNICA PARA LA INTERPRETACIÒN DE guitarra clàsica...muy buen video.

[RangRing68]

Harder to play on guitar than piano!

[Fixmanius]

Yes, that's mostly the case if you transcribe a piece from one instrument to another. Romance de Amor, for instance, is harder on the piano than the guitar.

[RangRing68]

@Fixmanius , You know Chopins Nocturne No. 3 Op.9? I would die to be able to play that on guitar! But its an impossible piece.

[tooray1]

Otro nivel. Increible, y a mi parecer suena mucho mas romantica en guitarra que en piano.

[soyguitarra]

sería ideal que alguien pueda trascribir ésta obra en éste tono,yo tengo pero en Em,ó si alguien sabe autor de ésta transcripción

[sbarbation]

Grande pezzo di chitarra, brava Virginia, brava e bella!

[grekito]

Ella es una Maravilla

[brogaguy]

HOLY SHIT

[CUATRODOMINGUEZ]

Alguien sabe de quien es esta transcripcion, Por favor. Es la mejor

[VirginiaLuque]

Si, es mia.

He trabajado mucho para lograr algo lo mas cercano posible al piano. Ahora tengo una version un poco mas mejorada en el que puedo incluir algunas notas que desgraciadamente no podemos, por la dificultad, destacarlas.

Despues de mucho tiempo de tocar la obra, me siento capaz de tocar esta nueva version que grabare en dvd muy pronto. Mismo tono, solo agregando algunas notas mas.

Gracias por gustarte mi version.

Ya la publicare pronto.

Virginia Luque

[karmmaguitar]

Mis más sinceras felicitaciones por esta magnifica transcripción y por la bella interpretación. Podrías compartir la partitura? Gracias

[higarmi]

@VirginiaLuque , felicitaciones por la maravillosa transcripcion. Realmente es la mejor que he visto (y he visto muchas). Tambien, tu interpretacion es increiblemente bella. Muchas gracias por dejarnos gozar de tu obra.

[kuelapCristo]

Hermosa Version suena a un canto de hadas con arpa.

[soyguitarra]

impresionante ejecucíon bravo!!

[requack]

[SanJosedeFlores]

es una obra pianística pero en las manos de una Excelente Guitarrista como VIRGINIA

[moonunitenar]

does anyone know where I can find the music/tabs for this arrangement?

[ttutte210704]

Increible version de una de las mejores obras del mas grande compositor y pianista de todos los tiempos!!!!!!!! EL MAESTRO FREDERIC CHOPIN!!

[Pacosebastianbach]

Excelente técnica ,impresionante por ser en directo,BRAVO!!!!!

[Mammonthdesu]

Sometimes I feel that I should have chosen the piano...but this things makes me think...I chose the right instrument...the classical guitar...

Virginia the best ever among with so many others ^.^

[pascal27able]

Great.

[alotan2acs]

a pleasure to listen to. this even has the dynamics, which is rare for a guitar transposition like this.

HOLY SHIT

[AzeriMagicStrings]

Your Chopin is magnficent!!!

You play with the big feeling!

You are very shine star on the guitar players sky!!!

[LiggriEleni]

very nice !!

[ricardomorino]

Virginia Luque de Argentina y de España, dos artistas de igual nombre y de excelencia!

[Angelakaulino]

Exelent! You play very well! I love this songs!

Good luck for you!

(Pedro Kaulino)

[Un1234l]

Wow a really good Guitar transcription. But it makes me sad that it will never be able to be in the same league as the piano version.

[MikeyIV]

Can I PLEASE have the sheet music to this? On guitar, of course

[asianodarby]

Ive been looking all over for this peice and cant order it from anywhere.

Any suggestions??? Thank you.

[teknoz]

Speechless...

[Akerfeldtfan]

Amazingly played, and a pretty tough piece to boot. The only video on youtube where they've pulled off those runs precisely, despite that there is much harder in classical.

[dudadede]

tocas muy bien felicidades!!!!

[6JULIA9]

Precioso! 5*****

[sammu5]

Awesome!

[axbroman]

What key is this arrangement you play in?

[DjCephyrot]

She's playing in A minor

[fr3d420]

[endriagos]

i love your sound.... really love it!

i think that all is already posted here.

is nice to listen u.

congratulations....

if u came to south america...i will be there

[tiocopado]

Virginia, listening to your music live is truly transcendent. I saw you outside of Boston almost ten years ago and can't shake the experience -- quite powerful. However, I haven't been able to find a list of your upcoming concerts since then! Are you playing in New York or Boston any time soon? Thanks!

Philip

[VirginiaLuque]

Thank you kevhan101. I appreciate it. It's always nice to read such an emotional message. I'm glad you like my music.

I have more recent videos that will be posted pretty soon. Thanks

Virginia Luque

[kevhan101]

I have to say you are one the best Classical Guitarists I have ever heard. Your technique is perfect.. but whats even more impressive is your musicianship. There are many Guitarists who can play and who have perfect technique, but they dont even come close to your magnificent musicality I studied Classical Guitar at FSU and I have heard many, many superb guitarists but they dont even come close to your talent. I love listening you!! You are blessed truly. Please post more videos!!

[Majedan008]

Incredible. Great.

[dumarkce]

Wonderful Virginia, could you share the scores with us, thanks

[bavlara]

She is so amazing. Her technique, her sensitivity to the piece is astonishing. It doesn't get any better. Thank you Virginia.

[gmgcustomer]

Great performance!

Is it possible to get the transcription from somewhere in the world?

Best Regards!

[twelvehorsemen]

OMG 1337 H4X!!1!!11!

[b00kluck]

ohh plese please do you have the music for this ... i would be so greatfull if you had it  this is such a nice version and wtching you play makes me want to tryy and learn itttt

:)

[Creepycottages]

Wonderful - I love Chopin and to hear it played on the guitar so well is a real treat. Thank you very much.

Which make of strings to you use ?

Regards

Paul Southwick (Pembroke Wales)

[VirginiaLuque]

I endorse D'addario composite normal tension for most of my guitars and hard tension for one long scale I have. They work pretty well for me.
