Villa-Lobos Prelude no 4

This Prelude [No. 4] was composed in 1940. I haven't seen the sheet music for many years, so I hope I don't play to many wrong notes.

I must ask, how do you get such clear recording? Is the audio recorded at the same time as the video? (either way, it is still amazing!)

[AndanteLargo]

Hi there. Yes, the sound is what you see. I have a good microphone beside the camera and then sync the sound from the recorder with the video sound.

Kind regards,

Per-Olov

Mr. Kindgren, I had no idea you had a video of this piece! I'll never forget the day I memorized this one. I enjoyed playing it for some time. I totally forget the whole song now...lol maybe some day, I'll take it out again. I love Villa-Lobos!!!!! Scott

[AndanteLargo]

Mr. Ouellette :-)

I remember playing this Christmas Eve for my fiancés family when I was 20 years. They all looked like: WHAT!? Is that music? :-) I tell you thay didn't like it! They never asked me to play again. I guess I ruined their Christmas totally that year! LOL

I have a frustrating relationship with V-L. I hate and love him at the same time... Have to talk to my shrink about that... and other things too

See you Scott!

An absolutely amazing performance. I am in the process of deciding my guitar examination pieces, and I thought that following the music with your recording would be my best bet. Your performances are always technically and musically perfect. I concluded that I absolutely wanted to do this piece for my guitar exam.

I then read the video description. You played it perfectly, note for note. These videos are of an elite on youtube, of true quality and musicianship.

Thank you

[AndanteLargo]

Thank YOU! I am honored. I am glad you can "use" me. I wish you all the best with your examination.

Thanks for the kind words.

you manage to make the arpegio part quite musical - this is not common

[MrTom7859]

I'm working on this piece now just trying to clean it up. Well done thank you.

Hi Mr Kindgren, please can you do a cover of the Choro of Villa Lobos. It would really help me to play it.

Thanks :)

I was looking for a good recording of this piece. Wonderful to find out that you had one. Always a fan.

I remember playing this song and another song by Bach for NYSSMA (music festival in New York) and the Friday before the festival i played this song for my senior choir class and at the part where you do the sweep and end on the B1:48 , I could literally feel the silence in the room. None of them heard me ever play any Classical Guitar before and when i finish the song the were freaking out and thought it was so good. But I am always humble and tried to tell them it was nothing hehe

[krampusz]

your quality of sound is simply superb

[therookie93]

@munkeey1123 There's a book out there. It's very cheap and has all of his major pieces including the preludes and Choros

[porchmonkey401k]

the timbre works better when the first E is played on the D string, and that is the one and only critique i have. Very beautiful, wide dynamics, world class interpretation. I give it 5 stars

I'd love to listen to "A Lenda do Caboclo" on your strings. Do you already have it?
