Very nice, have you tried to learn this piece, or rather your own version of this piece without using the tapping technique? I am, but I am struggling with the fugue part, but it doesn't look much easier with tapping applied. Well, atleast you don't have to bother about weird patterns and "one-note-per-string"-patterns, those can of course be transcribed but only to get even worse.
Was it intentional to have the capo across the first fret in the beginning?
I play guitar tapping (Stanley Jordan) since I was 15 years old, but I didn't have the right books for tapping. Your guitar books 'over the top' and 'magic touch' help me a lot. Thank's a lot!
Holy crap... This is fucking awesome dude...! I learned this the way you wrote it in your tab book "Speed Metal" (which is GREAT, by the way), but love this full tapping version here. Amazing! So damn clean and an absolute joy to listen to! Thank you brother! You RIP!
@taddak Thanks! Glad you dig my 'Speed Metal' book. I show how to play most of this tapping version of 'Toccata' in my latest instructional tapping dvd "ASAP Two Hand Tapping". It's available on my site.
The tablature and a complete lesson for this version of "Toccata and Fugue" is in my guitar instruction dvd "ASAP Two Hand Tapping" available on my web site shown at the front of this youtube video and amazon.com
if anyone dislikes this, they should never be allowed to listen to music ever again. This is a masterpiece of skill, precision, and long hours of practice.
I would say that I am blown away, but that would be an understatement. You truly are a genius.
Thaaaaanks for all the encouraging comments. I'm writing a column for a new online guitar magazine called "Troy Stetina Series - Digital Guitar Magazine" which launches October 1, 2010. My column will feature examples from my instructional books and dvds. I'll be featuring sections of this version of "Toccata and Fugue" in D minor in a future lesson. Look for it.
There's no point watching any other videos after having seen this. That's how this piece should be played. Johann would have applauded you, sir. Bravo!
Fantastic....it doesn't seem to be in the same arrangement as in your book...I Love it,and all your work,...your guitar playing is totally phenomenal .
It's like Ywinge Malmsteen. Only except without Malmsteen's tendency to interrupt the music with random shredding at odd intervals, so it's even better!
@piergiorgio1989 Glad you dig my version. In my guitar instruction dvd "ASAP Two Hand Tapping" I show how to play this tapping version of Toccata and Fugue (tablature included). The dvd is available through my web site
You don't have have a tab you could email to me by any chance do you? This is the actual best arrangement of Tocata and Fugue in D minor i've ever seen
Incroyable, stupéfiant, génialissime à rentrer immédiatement dans le top 10 des meilleurs guitaristes sur youtube toutes catégories confondues, cest ça aussi que jaime rentrer dans mon petits magasin de guitares et tomber par hasard sur des musiciens de génies, que personne ne connaît et qui te déchirent tout sur leur passage RESPECT
