@xxmanuelvaldesxx its not as hard as you think, if u finger pick it u should be fine, im trying to tackle this song as well unfortunately I barely got the intro down cause i never picked classical style.
I insist in my point of view. A good score includes all the neccesary information to play a song. Learn to read standard notation is not hard. You can learn by yourself, you doont need a teacher, a good book is enought
yo pienso y no se si este en lo correcto.. pero deberias revisar la digitacion... porque es una danza y como tal debe ser leggato y la digitacion algunas veces se tocan dos acores en las mismas cuerdas y eso provoca que se escuche cortado.. como si jadeara la musica no se si te sirva.. es mi humilde consejo
Speed? WTF!!! This is about the right speed. Most people just want to play it fast and a lot of classical players just like playing it fast but its not suppose to be. So I like the version and its speed. Its tasteful without sounding rushed.
@artistfood Right speed ,mostly used by luthists,,,,,but at that speed he should at least try to include most of the trills that are difficult and somewhat useless at higher speeds,,,right?
Nice effort. The thing I like about Bach is his contrapuntal melodies like there is a bass riff and a lead riff. Almost like the father of rock and roll. But remember that Bach was a devout Christian and that's what his music was really about. Peace.
its really gewd but if yhu want advice for your left hand then you should know that yhur thumb should always be on the in the middle of the back of the fretboard. it shouldnt be seen from the front. other than that it was really good
@CaptCatBunny: consider that not everyone can play music after hearing it! What is more, how can anyone play music without rules? There's no way to do so...
Waaaaaaaaaiiiit a minute.. Learn the music, yeah.. and we can all hear where this guy is relying on finger positions and ears, but you don't need to learn the music by sight.. If your soul is in it, (which you can learn), then reading music is actually restrictive.. Let music live, but you don't have to do it by sight.. As long as you feel it... otherwise we'd be stuck in a hole created by written pieces.. Interpretation is what keeps music relevant and exciting!!
Right on LDG....Being a pro myself, get off your ass and learn to read is right. Fuck tabs, tabs are like organized religion, a crutch for the weakminded. I have actually had students show up for thier first lesson with colored stickers all over the fingerboard. Can you fucking believe that shit. The assholes that start this tab and sticker shit should be hung with piano wire at dawn from a lamp post. Get some lessons, learn to read a little, and get to fucking work. Great playing!
you guys are a bunch of sissys. you do not play classical music of this caliber by using "tabs". Learn to read real music if you want to play this on guitar dont rely on some stupid invention called tabs that is made for the slackers who do not wish to learn true music but just want to know where to put ur fingers. So go and get urself a guitar teacher and learn to read and play REAL classical music. By the way the man in this video has good positioning and style. PRAISE JESUS!!!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
What the fuck is your problem! Reading by tabs is the same thing as fucking reading music. You end up playing the same damn thing in the end, fuck your technical bullshit. Learn how to play guitar your own way instead of following the fucking rulebook. I hate these kinds of bullshit comments
Yes but as you know, you can play the same note in various different poisitions on the fret board. It's all good saying it's better to learn from sheet music, but you then have to figure out where the tune is being played, as well as the technique involved. For piano i dont have that problem, but on a guitar i get frustrated very quickly.
I'm exactly the same. I can read standard notaion fine, when I'm playing piano. On guitar though...takes me 10 times as long to learn. I opt for tab with the notation aswell above it. i hate all the snooty classical experts turning their noses up at tablature. ALL the music for the lute was written in tab, and they managed fine.
Exactly. I do use the music score, but only for reference of the beat length of the note, which tab can't do. Everything else i learn through the tab, it's just a lot quicker.
@EivindTM Not really, you can't tell many things just by looking at a tab. Unless you really know the actual notes of your guitar just by looking at the tab, I doubt you'd be able to identify modulations very clearly or know where it's "more appropriate" to lean onto a note unless you thoroughly play the piece. Often, even the best guitar tabs leave out the dynamics which are usually included in notation. Now, I love guitar tabs and all but for classical music, sheet music is a must.
@josesuarezegas It really is unfortunate to have such a close minded comment so highly rated. I can read scores and obviously tabs. Tablature is meant to ease the way into learning stringed instruments it's focus is fingering as oppose to notation. Sight reading guitar tabs is a thousand times easier than scores for stringed instruments. It's actualy horrible that there is a bias of wat a "real musician is" when it would be so easy to say, real musicians play by ear.
i have only one question the tab link you put in the "more info" section... is that the hole song or just a piece, because it seems that what you play is a little more extencive than the one writen on the tab.
No, that's the whole thing, they're called 'repeats', learn to use 'em :) Look that up and learn!
Tabs are a great way to get your fingers working through some good songs, but reading sheet music takes it to a new level. I can read for violin just fine, but now I'm trying to transfer over that to the guitar, and have a ways to go (on this song!) Keep it up!
well... speed isnt the whole think, that's important. Your problem is the position of your left hand (turn it a little to the right side from your view), then your fingers are pretty scatter (your fingers should do less movements) and all above you must train it with your metronome, so you will be able to hear better the downbeats. But.. its ok i think ;))
I'll say "what ghonik said", except the metronome part. I find most people who play this for practice are to metronomic. Feel free to play with the tempo and give it some feeling!
well.. metronome isn't everythink, but it's Bach so it's supposed to be quit metronomic. And there is one more thing you can do to improve this excellent composition- try to play the basses and upper link separately and try to focus on these links still, if you play it together :)) whole think I guess
You fucking suck ass don't post a video if your going to mess up you ass gobbling cock shinning vinarial disease carrying son of a bitch. But keep up the good work and i hope you live a long and prosperous life.

hey great job, you did it just about perfectly. I can only play the first part and even doing that im all lurching around with my left hand. You play it very smoothly and clean. Absolutly a 5 star. I don't know why you have only one comment and three ratings, this really is good.

Scores are written in the language of music and interpretation. Tabs are written solely for stringed instruments, for lazy musicians.

A good way to work on speed (for me at least) is to make your right hand the boss!
Basically, keep the tempo with your right hand and force your left hand to keep up with it.
it takes a while but eventually youll get faster :D
