  • very beautiful. a bit too much hall for my taste :-)

  • Beautiful.. I want to learn how to play classical music.

  • so beautiful ... after a bad day your music gave me a good feeling and my first smile of the day .

    Thanks for all

  • Beautiful...as always.

  • This is a thoughtful and heartfelt performance. I am a professional cellist, and an amateur guitarist. I know almost nothing about this composer, so thanks for uploading this excellent performance of his music!

  • 안녕?

  • Hello Per-Olov

    Thank you very much for responding to me.

    Now I can go ahead and transcribe the music with confidence. Also I've listened to a lot of music by you on "You Tube". I was wondering if it's possible to purchase your transcriptions. Both for old and new music. Thanks,

    Nick

  • Dear Nick,

    Good luck with the transcription! Great that you do this. I guess you play the guitar and not the lute then... :-)

    Yes, you can find my own transkriptions and compositions at per-olovkindgren(com) please go to SHOP. Ihope you will find somethin you like.

    Please keep playing!

    Per-Olov

  • I just want to know how a six course lute tuning compares with that of a modern guitar.

    I would like to transcribe music from an Italian style tablature . I read that the only difference is the F# tuning of he third string. Is this true?

    Nick

  • Hi Nick,

    Yes, it's true. And remember that the lute was tunes a minor third above the modern guitar. E=G but while transcribing this you don't have to think about that. Good luck!

    Per-Olov

  • I need a special tuning for play this piece?

  • Great piece of music. Thanks very much for making your arrangement of it available for purchase. Truly priceless music and performance.

    --Steve

  • Thank you Steve.

    Yes, isn't it? I just love this music! And I am happy you bought it from me! Please play it with love and care... :)

    Kindly,

    Per-Olov

  • you & I are the few to play this music in the ether. Galileo's father wrote the most beautiful and profound music for the lute to this day. (who cares when he was born -- long live Galilei)

    nomusician= nevertheless obsessed musician

    It

  • 1570????? Hello! He wasn't even born then! And please - to do this music justice, it should be played on a 10 course lute...

  • Hello? Michelangelo died 3rd. January 1631! No one knows his birth date but it's very possible he lived and composed this 1570 as it says in the facsimilie! Why do you doubt this? Do you have other information? And, yes, I would play this on a lute if I could. But I can't. And I love this music too much not to play it.... sorry...

    Per

  • Sorry, but we know very well when he was born! If you bothered to check your sources, you'd find that he was born in Florence, 18 Dec 1575; died Florence, 3 Jan 1631. See New Grove for example.

  • OK, I rest my case. In my source it's mentioned that no one knows his birhtdate... I am sorry. I am only sorry you sound so agressive and critical... Isn't it all about beautiful music? Are you mad at me, playing his music?

    Kindly,

    Per-Olov

  • No, not at all, you're doing a good job! I just wished to set the record straight. If you play and propagate this sofisticated music, it would be a pity to spread false information, wouldn't it? What is your source?Sorry if I sounded aggressive, it was not meant so. Pls. continue uploading - a pity you sold the altgitarr...

    Have a good one!

  • luthiers such as Galilei would have designed, built and played lutes of various sizes and courses, and possibly tunings (?). I would say, for the most part, you need at least 8 strings for toccatas, but a few are possible on a 7-string. Like his son, Galilei was a 'scientist'.

  • Get a life you jackass. If you want to hear it played on a 10 string lute then pick up an instrument and do it yourself. Stop polluting the internet with your bullshit.

  • hey im a 14 year old american boy

    and the way you play is amazing

    and id love to be able to play with the grace that you do, so i was wondering if you had any tips or advice for me. i'm just starting to play, and i love it.

  • Hi there! Thank you. It's nice a 14 year old os listening to this old music! :-) As you can hear I love it.

    I can only advice you to get a good teacher and learn how to read music! That is very important if you want to be good. And of course practice a lot! And love the music and instrument!!

    Good luck!

    Per-Olov

  • Full of subtle...with inspiration.

    How do you know Michelangelo Galilei?He is not well-know, but he is good!!!

    Congratulation again!

  • Hi! Thanks. I am glad you like Michelangelo Galilei too! He is great!

    Kindly,

    Per-Olov

  • Lovely music,

    have you tried out the touchstyle technique?

    I.e. Stanley Jordan's style of playing?

    5* anyway

  • All lefts reversed all the way through =)..Great music!

  • Thank you!! LOL

    Per-Olov

  • Ok, I know Vicenzo and his son Galileo, but WTH is Michelangelo Galilei!?

  • :-) I know! He is not very well known. Probably living in the shadows of his famous family.. :-) I think he is great!

    Per-Olov

  • Well, that's not exactly an answer. Let's see if google can help. And you're right, he's great!

  • OK, found 'im on Lutecast. Vicenzo's youngest son.

  • Ambiance religieuse, plancher ciré et patins aux pieds... Entrez, entrez dans le monde de Peo.

    Religious ambiance, polished floor and lined skates to the feet... Enter, enter in the world of Peo.

  • SO, Peo, you have met your match...The Key of F# Minor! Interestingly, if you'd put the capo one fret further back it would be in the original key of pain in the...sorry, F# Minor, would it not?

    However, the piece is very beautiful the way you play it.

  • LOL... I explain in an earllier commet why I have the capo in III. It's because of the guitars sound... and, yes, I would hate to play this in F#-minor without capo! :-)

    I am lazy!

    Per-Olov

  • Hi Peo , beautiful playing as always ...I enjoy all ur videos ...Thnx ..Sandhya

  • 5 stars like always. plz play some of your other arrangements like annie's song and streets of london

  • Absolutely beautiful

  • I appreciate that you have given these lovely works by Galilei the spotlight they deserve. Bravo!

  • Excellent, excellent, excellent.

    The tone, in particular... very nice. Quite expressive. Fantastic job, Peo!

  • I keep enjoying all your video's. Thanks again!

  • Bravo Maestro! Bravo

  • Dear Himanshu!

    Thank you! I am still very busy selling my house and try to play at the same time... sigh... I hope you fixed your PC!

    See you!

    Peo

  • hi peo,

    am sorry i was a way some time ,

    i mess you man and i mess you tube

    grate vedio b t w ...

    lov

    adil

  • Dear adil!!

    I am so happy to hear from you again! Are you allright? I/we missed you too! Hope you will stay this time!

    Kindly,

    Peo

  • Hej Peo.

    Spiller du egentlig efter noder på dine videoer? Man ser aldrig hvad det er du kigger på. Kan du spille flydende efter noder?

    5/5 stjerner....endnu engang.

  • Hej!

    Tak for stjernerne!

    Ja jeg spiller efter noder. Fordelen er at man ikke skal øve!! :-))) Bare læse og spille.

    Peo

  • Ok...det må sgu være lækkert - bare at kunne tage et hvilket som helst nodeark til guitar, og så spille det - og kun koncentrere sig om følelsen i spillet. Men hvad med fingersætning? Er det også beskrevet i noderne? Jeg må sige, at jeg er virkelig imopneret over hvor sikkert og rent du spiller altid.

    Din "Rom" video er nok min favorit. Du sidder et fremmet sted...totalt blottet....og alligevel lever du dig totalt ind i musikken og ender med at imponere og begejstre italienerne.

  • Tak. Jeg er meget ydmyg over dine pæne ord. Det er en fantastisk følelese at få en ny node, sætte sig med guitaren og så spille. Ubeskrivelig. Fingersætningerne er der også i de fleste tilfælde. Men oftest ændrer jeg i dem efterhånden som jeg lær at spille mere i detalje. Rom var en herlig oplevelse!

    Jeg er glad for at du kan ide den.

    Per

  • Forgot to add. Your tone in this video is amazing!

  • Peo, beautiful like always.

  • Excellent again Master that piece talked to my heart!

  • Bravo!

  • lovely sound!

  • Hey Peo! Very nice! :)

  • Amigo Per: como siempre "magistral interpretación". Transportando de fa# al sol, has logrado más brillantes a la toccata, sin que haya perdido su profundidad espiritual.

    Un fuerte abrazo: José Luis León.

  • Peo, Thanks so much for this one. Your interpretation is superb as usual. Was that lute tuning? --Steve

  • Your music has such a warm sound, its awesome!

    P.S- The beard suits you!

  • You seem to be "rolling" most of the chords. it's a personal preference, and it is up to the performer to choose. but it seems like i would like to hear some solid chords in a lot of spots. I like rolling a chord at the end of a phrase, or using it as an ornament so to speak. You have beautiful tone and a great sense natural musical intuition. keep it up.

  • i like this guitarist's playing more than most people who post on youtube but I totally agree with you

  • Lyssande! Som vanligt.

    Geoff - UK

  • Hello my friend , a long time I saw you :-))

    Maybe since 1570 lol......time is very short isn't it ???. So, seriously you are one of my favorite guitare player in my life :-))))

    Nice interpretation, and what can I say....humm you use a big angle in your camera lol... see you soon Peo :-)

  • muy bueno, creo ver pocos videos con buena calidad en lo ques es musica.....

    very good....

  • Three things to mention. 1st, as always, a nice performance of a lovely piece of music.

    2nd, the quality of your recordings seems to be improving over time. What type of microphones, recording program, etc. do you use? 3rd, have you published the sheet music for this piece? If yes, where can I get it?

    Again, I always enjoy your playing. Please continue to do so.

  • Your out of tune! Just messing. Vgood :)

  • Wowowie!

    Another great performance, Hr. Peo!

    tiny h (just kidding)

    H+K,

    Julie

    Dave

  • Thank you Dave!

    Happy you liked it!

    I love this music!

    Per-Olov

  • Another masterpiece performed by the master. You probably don't even truly realize how INCREDIBLE your playing is. At least, as it is perceived by your faithful YouTube audience. :)

  • Thank you! Appreciated. :)

    Per-Olov

  • great videos great music my friend

  • Thanks my friend!

    Per-Olov

  • Hey Peo! lovely playing!

    Didn't you know?? Michelangelo Galilei actually wrote this in the 20th century! check your data! hahahah

    Really nice music!

    Regards

    Santiago

  • HAHA! I didn't know that! Have to read my music history better... I was sick that day in school :)

    Thanks!

    Per-Olov

    Mariana

    Kind regards,

    Per-Olov

  • the kind of shit I LOVE, well played, Peo.

  • lol... well, I am happy you like the shit!

    Per-Olov

  • nice, so why not just move the capo down a fret to the original key? just a personal preference (Gm) ? you play very well, would you be interested in looking at the arrengment I had made fo fur Elise?

  • Dear Per, this is beautiful and haunting music

    which you present in the best way as usual.

    Thank you for bringing the music of Galilei

    to this site and for sharing this particular

    piece. - Athan

  • Dear Athan!

    Thank you. I am happy you like Galilei. To me he is very special. Like Dowland...

    Thanks for still listening to me.

    Per-Olov

  • could you do it in f#m for us?

    :\

  • LOL... It's too damm hard! :)))

    Per-Olov

  • Thanks Ovidio (you are repeating yourself) LOL

    Have a great day!

    Per

  • Beautiful piece, and very well played. Your guitar sounds great! What kind of microphone are you using? Thanks for posting!

  • Thanks! I use a AKG C460b mic! I bought it when I had money.. LOL

    Per-Olov

  • Andante, I listen to your music which is the most important part of the musical story. But, I watch the video in complete amazement with the coordination needed to play such masterful classics.

    Four questions.

    1. Are there any rock 'n roll guitarist that you admire?

    2. At what age did you start playing?

    3. Were you professionally trained?

    4. Would you say that it is much more to have natural talent than finger coordination to play classical music at your level?

  • Oh man music is much, much more than finger coordination : )

  • Thanks!

    1. Hendrix, Clapton, Santana, Knopfler and others

    2. 7

    3. Yes. At the Royal Danish Academy of Music

    4. I can't really answer this. Both are very important. If you only have one of them, you will never be able to tell a story with music... and what is "natural talent"...:-/

    Greetings,

    Per-Olov

  • Peo

    This is proof that music is ageless.Such a beautifully played piece.

    Thanks for letting all your fans here enjoy your inspirational music.

    Weldon

  • beautiful! as usual

  • ... my words!

  • Thanks both of you! LOL

  • Hey Peo!! I like your smile It makes me smile too! A very lovley piece and you play it adorable! Thanks for part your gift with us! It's amazing! How was your concert in frankfurt?

    Kiss Sarah :-)

  • Hi my friend. Thanks! My concert in Frankfurt is first in the fall.

    Kiss,

    Peo

  • Peo! This is really fantastic music. I can't believe this is renaissance music, and I must say it's absolutely fabulous. Your sound and expression is awesome, too. And I really have to play that. Just allow me one question: Why didn't you simply move the capo one step down, to get F# minor instead of G minor? And maybe it would be easier to play with renaissance tuning (E A D F# B E)? Best Regards, Wilfried

  • Hi Wilfried!

    Yes, it's beautiful, this music. I didn't put the capo in II because my instrumant sound rather bad there. It's only fault :)

    And I use the mentioned tuning!

    Keep well,

    Per-Olov

  • Hi Peo!

    Thanks for your hints. Wow. it's strange, but every instrument (even the best ones) seems to have at least one weak point. Maybe that's a good thing to keep our sanity ;)

    However it sounds fabulous in this recording. So it likes the G minor scale? Just as my ukulele does ;)

    Regards, Wilfried

  • What a great music! Galilei - What a family! :)

    Thanks for posting Peo!

  • Perfectly lovely, Peo. Almost made me miss my ex, who taught renaissance music. Sometimes I miss living with the ever-present sound of this genre. Well, I miss the music, not the ex, haha. Yes, you do play it romantically, but you pull it off well. It sounds like firelight.

  • LOL... You don't miss your ex? Thanks my dear! Your comments always make me feel good.

    Take care.

    Per-Olov

  • wow, this one is very harp like...once again another beautiful piece of music, keep it up! lookin forward to your next vid

  • Thank you! I am happy you like it!

    Kindly,

    Per-Olov

  • Oh, I'll look for the tab of this one... Beautiful music by the son and brother of... (what a family !!!)

    Bravo !

    V.

  • Thanks Val.

    As a lutenist I guess you think I am too "romantic"... :) But I feel so strong about this music that I cannot help putting my "romanic" feelings into it... sorry!

    See you!

    Per-Olov

  • beautiful

  • Thanks a lot!

    Per-Olov

  • Good playing Per. I love this style of music, it reminds me a bit of Dowland, only slower and with fewer notes.

    Would be great to hear you perform more old pieces.

  • Thanks my friend! I love this kind of music too! I hope to play more of this (Dowland, Morley).

    Kindly,

    Per-Olov

  • It is superb my friend.. Thank you ..

    Cheers/Tarik

  • Thanks Tarik! I am glad you like this music!

    Per-Olov

  • Up in the Heavens they're listening along to the interpretation of Maestro Per, how delicate his fingers moves the strings and the tone he produces. Michel Angelo is giving his approval. Was this piece played on lute in those days Per? Great playing Per and a beautiful piece,rich in melody and harmony,greets Vic.

  • LOL... thanks Vic!

    Yes it was in a lute. 7 course lute. So i miss the deep B...

    Per-Olov

  • Beautiful. Thanks again for sharing your wonderful talent with the world.

  • and thank you for listening and taking your time to comment!

    Appreciated!

    Per-Olov

  • 5 stars

  • You make me smile, everytime you play!!!

    Thanks- Gil

  • Thanks Gil! That comment put a smile on my face too!

    Thank you!

    Per-Olov

  • Hi Per!

    Another great renaissance piece, lovely performance!

    Although Michelangelo has never heard it himself on a guitar, he (and his daddy) would be proud of you playing it like that. Maybe they are listening...shhh :)

    Thanks for sharing!

    Jasper

  • Thanks Jasper! You are repeating yourself!! LOL (see above) I am sure they are listening and smiling at my attempt... I guess they will tell me what they think when I meet them... LOL

    Per-Olov

  • Funny things happen on YT, messages twice etc...

    At least you got the message! lol

    Regards,

    Jasper

  • Hi Per!

    Another great renaissance piece, lovely performance!

    Thanks for sharing!

    Jasper

  • Wonderful.  I enjoy your perfromances.

  • Quite an interesting piece, played beautifully as always! Do you happen to know any of Sylvius Leopold Weiss's lute music? I think some of his pieces would suite your playing style really well! I'm sure you're probably too busy to take requests but I thought I'd ask anyway. :)

  • Thank you1 I love Weiss! I have played him always. But in an 11 stringed guitar by George Bolin. I sold it and now I don't like to play Weiss on my guitar... :-(

    Per-Olov

  • very beautiful music.

    thanks for sharing it.

  • Thank you 6543216543211 (is that your bank account?) LOL

    Per

  • Hello Peo, This is absolutely beautiful. I really like the music from the renaissance period. 5 stars.

    BTW ENjoying your CD and I recommend it highly for all your fans!

  • Hi Ray! Thanks a lot! And alsp for the recommendation! LOl

    Hope you are well!

    Per-Olov

  • Muy fina interpretación.

    IMPONENTE,

    Bravo, saludos, Rigoberto

  • Muchas gracias Rigoberto!

    Saludos,

    Per-Olov

  • AH HA Per-Olov, I found another wonderful piece of music by you and I love it. It is so mellow and soft. Just once I would love to hear something crummy by you so that I can tell people that you are human (Just kidding) LOL. I love your work and I really think that big things will happen for you and I wish you the very best on your new CD. Thank you for posting this and God bless

  • Thank you Greg! LOL You have no idea how crummy I can play! Thank you for you wishes! I am happy for your words.

    God bless you too!

    Per-Olov

  • Bravo! (o:

    Love,

    mom4education

  • Thank you my friend!

    Appreciated!

    Peace and love to you too!

    Per-Olov

  • I wonder what it feels like to have fingers that do what they're supposed to. I know what it sounds like ... thanks to you. My fingers ignore my instructions.

  • LOL. I think your fingers are doing a great job too!! What you don't see here is that I yell at my fingers before recording: BEHAVE! DO AS YOU'RE TOLD! Or else....!! I someties ieven give them "the finger"!

    Thanks my friend!

    Per-Olov

  • This is very beautiful Peo. Thank you.

  • Thank YOU1 for listening to me.

    All the best!

    Per-Olov

  • very beautiful!

  • Thank you! Isn't it beauitful music?

    Per-Olov

  • I wish I knew more English and more about music to be able to post an intelligent comment. But I can only listen and feel with my heart... I love you!

  • that's actually what I call an intelligent comment (far more than what we often see) and I totally agree with you about this guy's talent.

  • Dear lunalunanueva,

    I wish I knew more Spanish to tell you properly how happy I am for knowing you.

    I love you very much too. Eres la mejor!
