Toccata and Fugue in D minor (J.S.Bach)

[gregorthebigmac]

I can't stop listening to it! You not only nailed the notes, but you seem to do it so effortlessly. How long have you been playing?

[RyuBlade1980]

The fugue part sounds great!!! Most guitar versions dont sound good there, but you nailed it perfectly! Would so love to hear you recording two guitars for the fugue part. ^^

[DrSmokeTrees]

This is a much better cover than the average. 

[AllesMeinsOderDeins1]

This is the best i heard on a e-guitar *ears bleeding of the best sound ever heard*

[gear9100]

sweeeeeeet o.o!! i love your tone :B!! do you have any tabs or lesson :C?

[Andersgreenaway434]

You have such an amazing tone. And this masterfully played.

[sumss]

I shat my pants... and hell I've been playing 20 years..

[midnightmaximum1]

You dont even look like ur pressing it just floating around it just epicly smooth

[koker0]

Hi, could you tab or do a lesson on part from 0:50 to 1:00? Thanks

[lordmd133]

Nice video, I like your Jackson!

[rockerboy1989]

wow, Do you have some guitar pro tabs for that¿?

[rockerboy1989]

orgasmic



[sendanor]

Man, this is sooooo beautiful...I got tears in my eyes at hearing your rendering, thanks!!!

[GamesFurEver]

Bach and roll.

[Sorgutentarer]

Liking for the Jackson (Got 2 myself)

[yamicider]

@Sorgutentarer Agreed, Jackson guitars are beast, especially the high-end ones. (Got 1 myself; want more)

[CultureShockSix]

In complete honesty, this is the only video I've found on Youtube I like of Toccata & Fugue on Guitar.

I'm so glad you took your time and played it properly; rather than beating the guitar half to death and labelling it a "cover" of Bach's work. Would love a fuller piece; but I guess for now I'll just bully the reply button. =3

[Lakerbballfan]

@CultureShockSix This is the only video you like of Toccata and Fugue? It's a good video, but man...you haven't been looking. Check out Dave Celentano's video. I also found a video of a guy who lives in Sweden and he did an exceptional job. There's another one in Norway who is an exceptional guitarist, and did a "dual" guitar version of the Fugue which is incredibly accurate. The worst versions have way too much distortion and you can't hear the notes.

[lordmd133]

@Lakerbballfan watch mine, dude :P

[comeonewtf]

the beard makes you wise

[XxGuitarMonkeyxX]

U wanna know why u dont play classical music on guitar like this song? ITS FREAKIN HARD

[blazerrips91]

I'm glad this is played at a slower tempo :) amazing and the tapping part is quite simple

thanks~

[shredneoclassic74]

very good performance!!!!!!

see you the next video. stay metal

[konker666]

true barrock and roll

[MaQuGo119]

There is a thiny line betwen classical music and power/speed metal. You fucking rock.

[sigma1932]

Sounds so much better when it's played slowly with pauses... so many people doing metal covers of this play it like a crack addict hooked up to a "5-hour energy" I-V.

[Glockenator]

It's like J.S. Bach and Joe Satchriani had a love child

[twoface45]

So bad ass I gotta learn this!

[whitey717]

amazing. any chance you could do a lesson on this, I'm sure many of us would like the frustration of trying to play this.

[xaguilar79]

@whitey717 Yeah, I'm working in that :) Actually there is one lesson already in my channel under the Guitar Licks section.

[yamicider]

@xaguilar79 Yeah, a lesson would be awesome! BTW, great chops dude. Only suggestion is to reduce the timing on the overkill delay/echo. I don't even use that much to cover 80's hair metal. I'd also be interested in hearing this played on the Peavey amp behind you. Peace dude!

[LepreSarda]

@xaguilar79 is fantastic, but you have the tabs? why not put a tutorial?

I appreciate so many ....

[MrLooser0815]

Yes. Amazing. Keep on playing. Classic music in metal. Never thought that this combination sounds ggod. Thanks for this Upload.

[xzawier1777]

Bach: The first shredder in history !!!

[iConverseMyLife]

where did you get the tabs from ? its really nice ! :D

[deadriclord678]

The tabs for this are on guitar pro, this is the version i play

[jordanmylesevans]

@deadriclord678 you got the url?

[deadriclord678]

@jordanmylesevans well u need to download guitarpro

[Larrymarx]

♫♪♫♪♪ BEAUTIFUL ♪♪♫♪♫♫ What is the make of the Guitar.. I just love that sound? 8-) LM

[kimppa82]

Oh...Very, Very good,,, I like it ,,,

[Gibbyginge]

Wouldn't suppose you had tabs to share? That was brilliant.

[jefersonmatos]

I'm impressed at how relaxed your right hand is, during your tapping. Your technique is great... Congratulations... Bach would be proud...

[catchersmitt0]

Bach's music was pretty great, uou took it someplace completely different - and I love to imagine Bach would approve! Thanks!

[10adamo]

holy crap dude.... :O

[Inamoratalimerence]

This is the sex!

[KISSfanegm666]

Dude. Your beard is as brutal as your playing. Kickass.

[SmokingHotGuitar]

I loved the fugue! too bad you missed that all important cadenza before it!

[Eryans27]

O.o

The new Eddie Van Halen ?

[TheMrCatDog]

Super! it looks like you go so easy on this. Is it a Jackson I see? what Jackson is it?

[gokuussj8]

awesome its fuckin' awesome well done dude gimme some private lessons :D

[dasherdedash]

the fugue is total epicness!

[lewi5676]

o.o woah....just.....woah

[KratossOrion]

1'15 to the end is a wonderful interpretation of a wonderful masterpiece :D

[todrrez]

Soooooooo poetic. Fantastico



[antipop412]

wow awesome

[Vendilll]

its very hard to perform with one guitar with all the distortion that comes with it.. i was looking around utube. and this has been the best of them.

"add to fav." + "thubs up"

[xKyuubi13]

NIIICE dude ! Have you got tabs ?

[xrurix]

what tuning did u use?

[freddyzcount90]

@xrurix standard

[xxkewldudexx]

[BassShadow1]

[dragonmaster786]

@l0new0lfzed i want the tabs too

[Bytorand1]

wheres the other 6 minutes? the fugue is 8 minutes

[StefanWashburn]

Who is the artist?

[FrakYourself]

I love metal and I don't think it gets more metal than this!

[HarmonyRocketRocks]

I still come back to this vid. It's my all time favorite guitar classical tune....

I'm learning this song on guitar. I played on piano. Like I said I wondered if you can it do it on guitar. Yeah you convinced me. You rock the Bach.

[tokenXsk8]

bach is watching you from somewhere in heaven with a big smill on his face

[MasterShake43]

holy shit

[cleverlad2005]

This is a righteous Toccata & Fugue. I really like it.

[Metalheadrocknroller]

beast mode activate! haha, this is really fuckin nice man :)

[nameless9997]

Man! This is amazing!

Tabs?)))

[Hyroism]

There is just one word describing it: masterpiece

[Epic501]

This sounds awesome with an octaver, like a distorted organ!

[GpJBRM]

Muy buena ! Me gustó mucho como cuidaste la limpieza del sonido... La verdad que muchos hubieran querido tocar la canción rápido para decir que son virtuosos, pero yo prefiero algo como lo que hiciste vos. Felicitaciones !

[run4urmony]

you don't rush and i dont think i heard any incorrect notes. The fx is great for this piece and the tempo was perfect! very well done

[Mrseane11is]

good lord dude

[AllHailThe9]

dude you are a fucking genius! where did you get the tab?

[okmer333]

amazing!! love the tapping

[MsMetalhead37]

great playing =)) and what about tabs??

[active85858585]

didn't think i would like this, the traditionalist fuddy duddy i am.. but i quickly changed my mind after about 3 seconds. fuckin amazing mate

[BassShadow1]

I wish i could watch the full video but every ten second i have to go change my pants and i'm down to my last pair. Dammit

[boydark25]

[MtnMusician7]

[rodsling]

One of my favourites of metal music... sorry bethoveen... bach would have been really proud!

[egne666]

Look the Mustache! It's Chuck Norris; that's why it's Epic!

[Baby8Bri]

[moderndayknight54]

[MysteriousAndrew]

[alienjoe123]

NICE!!

[pillar12396]

ZZ TOP!



[djsemtx]

Whoah, this is awesome! I really like your style! Almost identical to the organ version. Keep up this good work, and let us hear your guitar versions of classical music. Thumbs up!

[ruballmighty666]

tienes tabs ?

[xaxeh7]

Spectacular my man!! My boyfriend and I can't stop listening to this. Classical has always been cool, but you made it wicked!

[jordan177963]

where did my jaw go it was here before i watched this

[NineTailsDemonFox]

That's fucking brutal! Dethklok approved.

[peaveyandsmolski]

I was thinking "Man, this doesn't look very hard I could play this." And the we got to the 1:14 point and I said "Oh wait, no I couldn't!"

[mostaphobia]

dude ....... for gods sake !!!! can't you make a lesson , and learn us how to play it ?!

[HarmonyRocketRocks]

Wow!! That was wesome!!! I was just listening too the pipe organ version today and though it would never some right on guitar. Wow you diffidently changed my mind.!

[BubbleDragoon]

fucking amazing dude Oo

[Olivere118]

Duude!!

[MrKisber]

does anyone know tabs for the part after 1:34

[ronniepage]

in the beginning you shouldnt let the notes ring.

[zibeddy]

J.S.Bach would have been proud.

[xaguilar79]

@zibeddy Thanks :)

[Optimi5ticBlack]

@zibeddy no, he would've been jealous! this is so amazing!

[luketheultimatefight]

@Optimi5ticBlack k let's take it easy there, buddy

[TheScottKirk]

@zibeddy Somehow I think that Bach wouldn't like distortion :/ or the fact that only one of the phrases can played at one given time.

I love the interpretation though.

[dcss89]

Dude, this is truly the best Guitar version of Toccata I've ever seen on Youtube! You're probably the reencarnation of Bach!

[xaguilar79]

@dcss89 Thanks hahahaha I'm really happy you liked it.

[ham699]

How do you make tapping look so easy X_X

[FeNsTa]

what fx are you using ? sounds pretty sweet man... nicely done.....

[xaguilar79]

@FeNsTa Distortion, a little bit of chorus and shitloads of reverb :)

[razetw]

I saw this and set out to teach myself the song. I learned it completely different than you. I must have watched your video 50 times and it helped me get past frustrations and inspired me to go practice it again. I now play this song to warm up because it goes everywhere on the fretboard, and has strumming fingerpicking and picking. I can't warm up without playing this song now!

Your cover and tone is way better, but I'm getting there :) Rock on!

[AKS1Zzz]

Can you give me your tab's? plz =)

[EndlesslyPT]

Your tapping = Eargasm experience

[TheLastAbacus]

Ive been wondering how to convert the notes at :50 to tapping like you have done, plz help me out man!

[Epic501]

Tabs would be awesome, especially for the tapping bit at 0:50 . for now i'll try and copy what you play from the vid. Nice work

[yoyoninjaman]

awesome! awesome!! awesome!!!!

tabs or video lesson would earn a subscription ;)

[TheEvilDinkleburgh23]

I absolutely loved the use of tapping for 0:50, really great work

[DrLeonardBonesMcCoy]

I can do that .I wish

[Pyrroful]

Perfect man where the tabs

[Dri88888888]

NICE!

[MrPalma93]

[P3zman]

[kakan147]

Love the piece btw :)

[muradobaisat]

[LandynCaissie]

[MrK4N3]

woah the tapping part sound awesome

[Kavster92]

the bit at 1:40 blew my mind how good it sounded!

And it was said that all those that touched his beard, could rock out like the messiah playing bach on electric guitar

[muradobaisat]

Dude , amazing job , great playing , i would love if u make or post a link to a guitar tab for this , it would be an honor for me playing you're notes ...

[ycicle]

All I can say is "wow" ... well played!

[911isfun]

Now all I need is the WHOLE song and I would be very very happy >.> you should finish the song or do it in 3 parts and mix them together... something... I WANT MORE!!!

[aleshify]

Nice, if you were alive in Bach's day, you would have written this...
