Best video out there of Sylvan. He will be missed.

Absolutely brillant

@remijazz I have never felt so amazed by a jazz guitarist and I am sure he has much broader shoulders than I can imagine. He is the best I have every heard. Here is the first guitarist that has stopped me in my tracks in over 50 years of being a guitarist or have I grown up at the hands of his genius.

I ABSOLUTELY agree with you on this point..BUT,when I hear Sylvain playing I can't rule out the fact that is is the most COMPLETE guitarist I've ever hear:he got the technic,the soul,the melody,the virtuosity,the intensity and even the humor..So I can't help thinking that I have never heard something like that in the guitar history and I think sometimes in music there is some guys who are totally above the others (monk,bird,django,trane etc),Sylvain is one of them,and it is important to say.

Yup.

So tasteful, so pure ..He is not trying to show his amazing technic but he is only playing with his heart, as well he is probably one the best guitarist ever , maybe the best of all time..I'm serious.

His soul plays

Hi, I went (in Toulouse in the 90's) to ear a concert of Louis Winsberg the guitar player, at the start i didn't recognize the bass player and then it took me 5mns or more to admit that it was Sylvain, i've never heard a beautiful bass like that on jazz fusion.

Un génie. Le seul guitariste qui me mette les larmes aux yeux. A genius. The only guitarist ever who brings tears to my eyes.

one of the greatest guitarists what I ever heard!!

just wonderful

L' improvisation au plus haut niveau d'expression ! Une fontaine de son, de poésie, de liberté et de créativité. Immense respect. Merci

I don't know that I've ever heard a better improvisation from any musician, ever. What a magnificent showing of sheer virtuosity. Sylvain has a phenomenal ear for music. I can't even fathom where he begins to pull some of those harmonic changes from, off of the top of his head.

would kill for this guy to sit in on Lingus with snarky puppy and show the jazz world that guitars are still cooler than keyboards

MARAVILLOSO!!!

One of the best guitar videos on you tube....HOW CAN IT HAVE 2 DISLIKES?....What kind of world are we living in...LOL....Anyway...GREAT POST!!!!!!

That was amazing.

peut-être bien le plus beau SOLO sur youtube

il più grande al momento... stupefacente... il Keith Jarrett della chitarra

je l'ai vu sur scène une merveille ,très grand guitariste

The Holdsworth of Akoustic

sono senza parole...un genio...

What great ears you have my dear!!!!!!!

So great musician !

Fantastique , merci pour cette vidéo divine !

this is absolutely fucking amazing..for me..one of the best guitarist in the world..

@mattdavgra Son... he is way way better than Bireli - Bireli is a shredder who sometimes forgets the musically because playing fast is more important to him. Sylvain is a lot more creative and makes Bireli's playing look two dimensional... some people don't see that because they are simply not ready to hear a guy play this way

@remijazz I think everyone should just drop the whole "He/She is the best" attitude. He plays great things his own way, you can't gauge that and you shouldn't. Music at its core is not a competition, maybe trying to get that next gig is, but not music overall.

nice

@oldpython saw him in vienna...changed me.

Anyone know what he starts playing/improving around 1:55ish? Beautiful!!

hes got such small hands!

He came from outer space ...

Biréli Lagrène Sylvain Luc Greg Howe = ce qui se fait de mieux en guitare aujourd'hui au niveau beauté musicale !!

What is the name and model of his guitar? I want one.

its nylon or steel string?

this is an improvisation , this song haven't name =)

That is a nylon which is the impressive part for me.

He's like the European counterpart to John Stowell.

@Savonfou59240 100% d'accord et c'est bien la première fois que je peux dire que j'aime me faire trouer le cul

Guitar Godin = 2000 euro

@florianocoelho I wouldnt say that Sylvain is "way better than bireli". I agree that Sylvain is more creative and bireli cares more about shredding. Sylvain is one of the top guitarrists but his is not way better than bireli, he migth be bettert but not waaay better.

totally! Holdsworth might be winning this battle though...at least at the beginning

guys pretty good , technically proficient but rambles on , kinda boring , like a guitar lesson on something you're not crazy about but should learn

Genius. Just like your musical input.

Too bad he uses those Godin guitars.... the tone is awefull... they have good playability but the sound is like some plastic shit... he only plays with those because it's a rich company that gives him money for it. I would rather hear him on a real acoustic guitar.
