Truly the best. So much music coming from him.
Nothing in the music is sacrificed. Nobody on this day is on his level except for Dyens

Agreed. Dyens also comes to my mind. Although I recently saw Odair Assad perform solo. Talk about sheer power of expression there.

Simply the greatest British musician ever - and the most wonderful player of the guitar and lute. He does not get the recognition he deserves. Bream, you are the man and will always be. Your playing has come from the gods.

dasgroover. You are right of course. The music is perfectly sublime. Miraculous. Thanks to Bream we hear it here.

Where's jugglenaut's comment gone. I enjoyed that...

yes, all practice is metered - afterward performance is free flight -

personally, in musical context, I prefer the experience of freedom vs a performance being overly rehearsed -

When it comes to joy there cannot be such strict demand to restrain individual expression

I had an awakening when I first heard the Allegro
it remains a central hub of influence which I must return to and bath often

and no matter who plays it - ( glorious or less so ) the music itself remains transcendent

ROC

When all the metronomes are put aside, and the critics are silenced there's just an artist and his audience, This is entirely convincing: an artistic performance. For all the great technicians there are these days who else could actually pull this off? Must be all that lute plucking...

Buaf... y que lo digas, él la hace suave con su genialidad también... sin palabras, como siempre!
Un saludo!

Even the great Julian Bream speeds up! Allegro is at least five clicks faster in the B section than the A section! Great overall performance! Thanks for the awesome post!

Is there any other player alive or dead who could take you on that journey so skillfully?
I'm doing that again...
