Definitely one of them. There are many many more though. Things to be learned, explored, etc. Math, science, REAL world events, not the nonsense from the old school media, people's takes on every subject, from students to masters. Mastery level presentations of all kinds of subjects, and people demonstrating the other side with videos like time grabs of learning violin, etc. which are often interesting and sometimes pretty amazing. Also a lot good humor (sometimes even intelligent humor) often lacking in standard presentations, as well.

@@Debilitator47 When have you EVER seen an endeavor of man not have problems? And I disagree, the restart would turn out no differently, and something like governmental control would absolutely destroy its value. As far as I'm concerned there is something for everyone. There is absolutely no requirement for it to conform to your taste, or mine. It is as simple as a click to enter something you are interested in, and a click away to leave, if not. AND you can access anything at any time. What could be better than that? If it's not illegal or spreading hate, I say go for it. The best thing of all is it gives everyone a voice. Many are idiots (moon hoaxers, flat Earthers, etc.), I'll grant you, but giving them an outlet, meeting the above criteria, is in my opinion, not a bad thing. And for that matter, trolling some of more extreme morons, like the ones mentioned above, is a lot of fun. Some excellent humor available there, as well. The creativity is almost beyond belief, as well, again in a myriad of areas, all of them really, except maybe the flat Earthers. :-) I would rank the internet as probably the best thing that has ever happened to mankind, actually. Not perfect, not by a long shot, but all out excellent. There is even some excellent wit available in the comment sections, occasionally.

After getting into music for a handful of years, the ability to memorize music just naturally develops. One thing that helps is not using sheet music after you learn a song. Overall it isn't like remembering all the words in a chapter of a book. After some practice and skill with a song, muscle memory leads the charge to where the music almost plays itself. Also, after diving into music for a while, your ability to recall and understand music in general goes way up, which sort of pairs with your increasing skill and familiarity with an instrument, as you will, in a way, play the music by ear, even though you already know the piece. Patterns and chunks is part of it, and that will depend on the instrument, to where something like the bow hand of a violinist benefits from getting used to the pattern of playing since there is more movement so the pattern is more defined. Something like picking strings with a guitar wouldn't be affected as much since the movement is much smaller and with less variation. There's also the mental part of patterns/chunks, as in the way your mind thinks of and understands the music. Also (again), playing more active parts/pieces helps with memorization - like if you are playing in an orchestra and you have lots of rests and may only play like three notes before going back to a rest, that becomes harder to remember. Something like a solo piece or the melody part in an ensemble would be easier to remember, which sounds counterintuitive, but all the sections string together better and the melody is more obvious - as in, playing harmonies or supporting parts wouldn't be as easy to remember as it is harder to tell how that part fits in with the whole piece as it is only one small part of the whole and doesn't carry as much recognizable melody. At least, that has been my experience. Overall, remembering music is something that stops being an issue relatively early in your musical journey and being able to play/practice for over an hour from memory is not much of an ask at all. As others have pointed out too, it is a little hard to explain to someone if they don't have a little bit of music listening/instrumentation experience.

2 yrs late to the concert- I can’t believe I missed this masterpiece of a performance. I’ve been following Ana’s career since she was a child and you will not find a more musical guitarist. The comment that her guitar is an extension of her MIND is absolutely correct. Her voice separation is uncanny -she often sounds like an ensemble. That goes far beyond just “technique”.

The Asturias in the encore was incredible, especially since it wasn't on the program and so she wouldn't have spent much if any time rehearsing this piece immediately prior to the concert. And yet she played it flawlessly with all the dynamics and emotion that is the core to this most incredible piece of music. Brava!

She has still the same eyes from an old video playing Adelita (Tarrega) with images of childhood with her mother. She's amazing. She's perfect.

Such sublime Bach playing. And then just playing the Asturias as a request. Ms Vidovic, I am at your feet.

I believe what makes Ana Vidovics Bach so capturing is her way of playing Bach. His so called unnoted notes, namely the legatos, the crescendos, or what we may call them. It is all about rythm. When it is there, or when it is not. When Ana plays Bach the rythm is her companion all the time, and so I rely on her music completely. Never will it fail. If you want to call it "pulse" instead of "rythm" it is okey with me. Pulse is nearer the heart, And heart is what it is about.

Tears came to my eyes, played so beautifully!

What sets her apart is that while other fine or even excellent guitarists sound beautiful (I think Pepe Romero), she has some bite to her playing - sharp, clear notes interspersed that give the music an edge that helps reveal its definition. One of a kind. I had the great pleasure of seeing her live in a small venue, where the audience could meet after the performance and briefly say hello. I asked her what she thought of Richter. Her brother's favorite, she said (her brother plays the piano). To better define what I was trying to say above, think about Richter's playing in comparison to other great pianists. With many composers, his tone is like no other. Her tone is like no other guitarist I have ever heard.

Her phrasing , touch and control are on an unbelievable level . A grand master of her craft. Brava

That is some of the most precise and deliberate playing I've ever seen and heard in my entire life. She is definitely a master of the guitar.

Who are those 473 people who didn't like that? Why the hell?! It's sooo beautiful!!

I am also interested to learn what kind of people come to the concert of a very talented player only to say that they do not like it. Do they also spit into a plate in a restaurant or stay in the middle of the walkway to tell every other passing by person that they do not like him.

When I was little my grandmother told me that angels play the guitar. It is true!!!!

The sound is fantastic, but it's beautifully filmed, too. I loved being able to see close-ups on her technique.

Yes I enjoyed watching her hands as well! Thank you.

Don't care if it is in a church, buddhist temple, or any other acoustically favorable location. Listening to Miss Vidovic is always a win. 👏

Wow, she just keeps getting better all the time. Just awesome. Thank you for presenting her too.

This piece demonstrates the guitar's versatility, blending different styles seamlessly.

Protect Her at All Costs. Flowers blossoming in the desert.

As for Ana's performance, top notch as always. But I want to point out that this is perhaps one of the best live solo guitar recordings I have ever heard. The space is amazing and the mics placement and selection is PERFECT. Engineers generally dont get enough credit, but honestly they dont often do anywhere near as well as they did here,

I agree. I should also add they are helped by the fact that there are few people there. When recording a delicate instrument like the guitar with a live audience in attendance, the sound engineers have to somehow try to pick up the delicate reverbs the instrument is sending around the space, with the fact that they need to mute all the fidgeting and other noises from the audience. A compromise that is often to the detriment of the recording. Listen to the clapping.

Ana, you are so gracious to give us this wonderful concert free!

Hello, can you help me to find the music notes for the song that was played at the beginning?

Total mastery of the instrument, the guitar is suffering to produce the sounds demanded from it! Bravo!!!

Think of the dozens (if not hundreds) of hours it has taken for a maestro like Ana to have memorized a piece so intricate and complex!

A truly gifted performer with very beautiful countenance, yet she's so modest and polite. No breaks yet flawless performance, and even tuned the guitar without playing a note. Wow wow, what a lady.

I heard her play for the first time today. Imagine a random stranger giving you a beautiful gemstone to keep in your heart. A joy for life :-)

I remember watching Ana perform while we were in conservatory together. Everyone knew she was going to be a star.

It’s a delight to hear the sound of this noble instrument played in the hand’s of such virtuose guitarrist

“Does anyone have any encore request?” How about a very difficult song. “Ok sure, hopefully I practiced enough”. Proceeds to kill it.

Superstar. I’m trying to imagine being a music critic (that oddly superfluous profession) tasked by my editor to come up with something negative to write about this. There is nothing. Performances like this bring us a little closer to heaven.
