    Genuinely one of the best covers on this entire platform, you've really transformed the feel of what youre covering. The original track gets broken down to its emotional components, laying off the high-energy tension that that version emparts and instead focusing in on the dread, sorrow and hope hidden underneath. And your playing of the classical guitar is so evocative of those emotions that I think this version surpasses the original. All that to say, i love this cover, thanks so much for making it. I've probably listened to this a hundred times at least. Amazing job. If only it were playable in standard tuning, id probably spend more time practicing it too 😂

    No no no. Her wrist isn't extremely elevated or "tall" at all. Rather, it is extremely turned. Generally it is actually quite low, hence she is constantly adjusting the hand. Also, it is as a consequence of the low wrist that her knuckle/basal finger segment angle is almost a straight line - and that in turn requires the adoption of the extreme 90deg angle between the basal segment and the middle segments of the fingers. Your faulty observation of wrist elevation has invalidated much of your analysis. Finally, no analysis of Presti can be taken seriously without addressing the consequences of her right-hand attack. She plays off the right-hand side of her fingertip/nails. It is fundamental to her hight hand technique. To read an analysis/promotion of Presti approach it is worthwhile to seek out articles on Presti by Alice Artz, who advocated the approach.

    Excellent observations! One thing to consider is that one can't put in the hours and get as skilled as he is if they play stiff. They'll get tendonitis, etc. I agree that the flow he's in is probably the primary cause for his body movements and not resting on the guitar, but such repetitive motion requires intentional diversification of movement to keep circulation going and avoid injury.

    After watching several of your videos analysing movement, I've come to the conclusion that, in a most natural way, music moves one, and the absence of movement, trained or otherwise, is the unusual or unnatural state. Love your videos.

    What was wrong or problematic for Julian Bream with his left hand pinky finger? ChatGPT: Julian Bream, the renowned classical guitarist, encountered significant issues with his left hand, particularly his pinky finger, later in his career. The specific problem he faced was a debilitating injury to his left hand, which affected his ability to play. This injury was a result of a car accident in 1984, which caused severe damage to his left hand. The accident left Bream with impaired function in his left hand, particularly in his pinky finger. This impairment made it challenging for him to execute the precise and complex finger movements required for classical guitar playing. Despite extensive efforts to rehabilitate his hand, including surgery and therapy, Bream never fully regained the full dexterity and strength in his left hand pinky finger. This injury significantly impacted his playing technique and forced him to adapt his playing style and repertoire to accommodate the limitations of his hand. Nonetheless, Bream continued to perform and record, demonstrating remarkable resilience and dedication to his art. His ability to adapt and continue making music despite this physical setback remains a testament to his extraordinary skill and determination as a musician.

    I'm pretty sure the rasgueado at the end is either p up, (one down stroke with one or several of i, m, a simultaneously), p down - or p up, (two down strokes with any of i, m, a separately), p down (i can't really hear whether he's doing 8 per beat or 6 per beat). kzread.info/dash/bejne/dHiLzLlvqdTVo5s.htmlsi=0xdTa0YYEZthlKkh&t=76 It's probably the hardest rasgueado to master for non-natives.

Tonight this plays after coming to a realization that I've been being manipulated by this woman, who I thought I had a genuine connection with.

    Hi! What are examples of new school technique vs old school technique? Not sure what you mean by previous techniques that aren't relevant any more. Thanks and good video!

  • @CharlesAlexanderAllred
    @CharlesAlexanderAllred25 күн бұрын

    Good question. There’s not really a definitive answer but many old school players utilize things such as more rest stroke and a more elevated plucking hand wrist. It’s common to see many players today use a lot (if not all) free stroke and maintain a much flatter plucking hand wrist. Marcin has such an amazing consistency of sound that I assumed he didn’t use much rest stroke. After seeing how much he does actually use it I was pretty blown away.

    That past generation of players had musicality and a beauty to their playing that most of the modern players of today lack. Lots of very good technical players now but most of them play very mechanically and their playing has no soul to it. Bream was my favorite in terms of being lyrical, his interpretations were beautiful to listen to.

    That right hand position is reminiscent of that taught/used by Agustín Barrios. I haven´t been able to find videos of Barrios playing, but you can see the position in various pics on google images. The 90-degree angle when playing apoyando is also similar to that used by Paco de Lucia when he plays picado very fast.

    The problem Bream had is discussed here and I think it has something to do with his collapsed fingers or frog fingers, you can see his nails are collapsed also so perhaps his technique caused a physical problem with his left hand. kzread.info/dash/bejne/Yox727WRfaqYd7w.html
