John Willams giving a flawless performance of his classic interpretation of Stanley Myer's Cavatina in 1979. Is it just me, or does JW look like the late great Peter Cook?

  • @superman11978 i dont know but i think that the "out of tune" sound adds a bit of character, i kinda like it.

  • @tpkatsa You know I almost agree with you Per-Olov is amazingly good. but, this is John Williams, 33 years ago with a fairly poor recording. As much as I love Per-Olov's play, Mr. Williams is just incredible.

  • Simply beautiful.................

  • @TheLimpCottonToeBook Excellent comment, greetings

  • Not always easy to stay on top!...Regardless of technical problems, I prefer this version to JW 2004' in The Ultimate Guitar Collection (accompanied by orchestra)

  • All you hater, shut the fuck up ^^ .. This guy is the reason, why your daddies told you to play guitar.

  • If you can't play the tune, play with yourself . !!xxxx

  • Man, this shit is hard to play.

  • It works for me. Thanks.

  • for eternity for O

  • @saistone Those without human emotion.

  • The timing. Just impeccable....

  • This is good but Per Olov Kindgren is better. Search "AndanteLargo" and "Cavatina"

  • 48 dislikes? how can anyone with any human emotion dislike this? go figure.

  • " C lassi Indeed "

  • well i've been trying to play this for years and still cant get the timing right grrrr love the tune well makes me happy!!!! thank you john williams for this beautiful tune :)

  • @MajorMuffinMinecraft Yeah, I'm trying to learn this song also...can't read sheet music though. Just going by tabs.

  • @armstrongbrosband Actaully no i have learnt it now ^^ My music sheet was wrong the music is perfectly in sync with the video he just uses his pinkie instead of going from the 7th fret to the 4th he used his pinkie to hit another note lol ^^

  • @MajorMuffinMinecraft I think the sound is out of sync with the video.

  • 0:9 to 0:13 is he actually playing that? i am trying to learn it and, all i can say is it looks like he is just adding in that sound or has someone else playing it, because, HIS HAND ONLY MOVES TO THE NEXT CHORD you dont have the songs signature sound in his movement, please help me this is almost making me SCREAM! ;(

  • wish I can play like hem !

    Beautiful how he playing

  • @stuartbroon91 Omg that made me laugh when i read that!;D
