I don't care what any1 says Bireli is the GREATEST guitar player in the world in my eyes, no other guitarist has ever impressed me the way Bireli does!! I'm not saying this just because of his amazing skill in manouche but i've seen this guy play metal, bi-bop, different latin styles, classical, blues, rock, fusion, and hes amazing in all of them.....is there anything he can't do!!!
I’m not young anymore and I’ve listened to a lot of musicians in my life. Well: this guy always surprises me, always raises the level of the song he’s playing so high, always he fills of wonder the music. Bireli is an authentic outsider, a real genius.
I know there are about a hundred moments of brilliance in this clip, but I wanted to point out the part around 0:32. He played the arpeggio along with the harmony by himself! Never seen that before.
Un grand moment de l'histoire de la musique !! heureusement qu'on est dans une époque ou les cameras existent pour saisir a tout jamais ces moments là!
M. Lagrene é sem dúvida um dos maiores violonistas do mundo de todos os tempos! É sempre uma maravilha ouvi-lo! Parabéns também àqueles que o acompanham! Extraordinários!
Man, this concert was like a thunderbolt to the gypsy jazz world. It’s only grown from here. Lots of good features and an incredibly long concert, but the opening set here by Bireli and Florin is unsurpassable! The peak of plectrum style ever captured on film.
Ich hab ihn ca. 1986 im Logo in Hamburg gesehen, er an der E Gitarre mit pierre moerlin(Gong) am Schlagzeug und vielleicht Hansford Rowe am Bass. Der war da ca. 20. Die Leute haben 45 Minuten!!!!! nach Konzertende und Saallicht weiter applaudiert. Ein Konzert, wie ich es nie vorher oder nachher erlebt habe, obwohl ich hunderte von Konzerten gesehen habe. Die Kombination aus absoluter harmonischer und technischer Sicherheit mit überwältigender Musikalität ist einmalig und macht ihn aus meiner Sicht zu einem Jahrhundermusiker. I saw him about 1986 in an Hamburg Club , him tab the electric guitar with pierre moerlin (Gong) and maybe Hansford Rowe on bass guitar. He about 20 years old. The audience gave a 45 Minutes continuing applause after the end of the concert with full hall light. It was a concert I never experiencend before or later, visiting hundreds of concerts.The Combination of harmonic and technical perfection with overwhelming musicality makes him to talent only showing off in centuries
Are you for real? Lagrene is one of the most animated musicians playing today. Furthermore, he isn’t good. He is unbelievable. The most imaginative guitarist I have seen.
I saw Biréli Lagrène in Marina Del Rey in Los Angeles back in 83. He played a whole set with a Mickey Mouse hat on his head. He's was such a great player even back then, that after he played the first song, nobody noticed anymore.
I was looking for a song illustrating Bireli's incredible sens of harmony, and unlimited creativity...Here it is !!! Bireli at his best...he is a real alien, a jazz genius...he's not playing guitar, he is singing, telling a true story...What amazes me is that during a concert you will never hear Bireli playing a musical phrase he would have already recorded, his capacity of everytime renewing his improvisations, and ability to instantly follow any musical melody that crosses his mind...Bireli every note I hear from you is a delight, I truly love your playing !
Bireli , c'est une technique indéniable mais surtout c'est une musicalité hors du commun ... Si j'étais croyant , je dirais qu' il a été touché pas la main de Dieu.. Bravo !!!
Hard to better Django in any case. Even harder when there's only one recording of Django doing this number - oneoffs tend towards the iconic in his oeuvre. This does it with a couple of lengths to spare. Brings a lump to the throat even after the 50th listen - people, if someone insists on telling you Gilmour's solo on Comfortably Numb is the top guitar solo ever, just point 'em right here. This is peerless.
thanks ben - I missed the final smile - came back to watch it again for the fourth time in two days - it looked like genuine personal recognition of "that went well"

Check out Yamandu Costa, I guess he wasn't around 12 years ago :)

Il y a un moment de grâce, et ce morceau en est un ! Marci merci merci

Ivju😢
Biréli is in a class of his own...
This rendition is out of this world...
Merci de tout cœur Bireli, pour cette expression musicale DIVINE
The way he plays those harmonics is so cool
I was in awe of that-came here to see if anyone else mentioned it. Especially coming from a classical guitar. I need distortion to cheat.
It is, check out Lenny Breau for someone who's a master of that technique
un des rare guiariste manouche qui raconte une histoire quand il joue !! tout simplement magnifique !!

This is impossibly awesome! 🔥🎸
a big wow, Bireli is among the most great guitar players ever !... :)
One of the all time greats of the guitar.
Bireli is so Amazing...His Stage Presence...His Confidence...His Virtuosity...His Humour...and... Also He is not too bad at playing the Guitar.
one of Bireli's best... absolutely magic guitar playing... full of soul.
Un grand moment de l'histoire de la musique !! heureusement qu'on est dans une époque ou les cameras existent pour saisir a tout jamais ces moments là!
J'espére être encore là dans 100 ans pour écouté une tel interprétation
Merci Mr Lagrène.

Pure poetry. Thank you Bireli!
Unlimited... Natural application direct through reflection... This guy is a master.
What a joy to experience this wonderful musician. Thank you for posting this.
oh my fucking god
DITTO!
This guy's technique is off the charts. Unbelievable!
Unbelievable guitar playing, absolutely mint
Was für eine magische Virtuosität,... Großartig
Le solo tout en harmoniques, qu'est-ce que c'est beau
un truc de fou
You guys know what Paganini said:
"The violin is my mistress but the guitar is my master".
wow. i didnt know your father said that
Paganini was actually a very good guitar player too
THAT WAS THE PERFORMANCE OF A LIFETIME!

My favourite guitar player of all time
I have no words, just can say WOW WOW WOW , Bireli i love you
and Hono tooo :P Hono is a special person to me , i know him since Titi Winterstein Times ... In my eyes he is HONO THE GREAT
Bireli Lagrene, the illest to ever do it... le meilleur aujourd'hui!
The way he uses harmonics at 1:39 is just awe inspiring. Sounds so delicate and full of emotion...
Are you for real? Lagrene is one of the most animated musicians playing today. Furthermore, he isn’t good. He is unbelievable. The most imaginative guitarist I have seen.
3:10 - Appassionata, 3:32 - Fur Elise. Beethoven would be proud:)
Merci à Bireli pr ce moment de libertée musicale !
C'est trop bon dés le matin au réveil
Superbe ...Bireli est grandiose!
I saw Biréli Lagrène in Marina Del Rey in Los Angeles back in 83. He played a whole set with a Mickey Mouse hat on his head.
He's was such a great player even back then, that after he played the first song, nobody noticed anymore.
In my opinion when i saw him with this group i felt i was in France in a smokey club..he was that good..thank you for this post greatly appreciated!
Les mots sont tous repetes, mais vrais: Magnifique! Super! Excelent! Merci pour partager!
Certainement le meilleur guitariste !
C'est magnifique ce que Bireli peut faire avec sa guitare, SUPER
¡Biréli Lagrène nous donne beaucoup!
Incroyable mais vrai... The 👑
This is a band and Bireli is amazing as always.
AMMAZZING Birèli is the best manouche player

Jesus that technique is "streching it off the limits"
He still sounds amazing. Congratulations are in order for this musician.
Bravo!
What a piece....!!!
semplicemente divino ... irrangiungibile ... incredibile ... fantastico ... e chi più ne ha ne metta ...
Maestro inarrivabile. Pura classe

Exceptional playing!!!
Superb, just beautiful.
La plus incroyable des vidéos manouche
simplement....sublime et humble....on aura toujours beaucoup à apprendre...
There are a lot of great guitarists on this planet, but Bireli really isn't of this planet. I think he is the most creative guitarist in history.
the best guitar player of all time!!!
thanks ben - I missed the final smile - came back to watch it again for the fourth time in two days - it looked like genuine personal recognition of "that went well"
j'allais dire le meilleur de ses solos, mais c dur, à la chanson suivante tu penses pareil ;-)))
Fantastic !!! Sonia amaral
Biréli is simply amazing.
Beautiful.
C´est superbe!!!!
ABSOLUTELY SINGULARITY !!! 🔳
With this MUSIC 🎧 EVERYONE, WITH AN ACCESS TO THEIR EMOTIONS 💖 CAN SURVIVE !!!!!!!!🌍
Deep blue and brilliant yellow-white.
magnifique, comme d'habitude!
That was pure genius, sublime.
qu'est-ce qu'on peut dire....????
Le maître du jazz manouche exprime son art.
Merci de votre clip.
imbatable, often imitated, never equalled, number one of jazz manouche.
Out of this world!!
You`re so Right my Friend !!
too good for being human
this is superb
Fantástico! Inacreditável!
Is the number 10'000 comment i make on Bireli performance.... another world's guitarist..........................
Que MARAVILHA!
WOW! LOTS OF REALLY FANCY STUFF IN THIS VIDEO.
it is soooo good!!
the string-skipping at the end of the video made me rewind and watch closely since I was just listening to the music. Holy mother of god.
the king of king,s
Sans voix... le paradis de la guitare...
magnifique !
Amazing!
incroyablement bon!!
Amazing what you can achieve when you don't go to school and are not brain washed into being a shelf stacker in a super market.
Si tu savais que tu allais prendre une méga tarte dans la face en mattand ça ... c'est un solo Enorme !!
My favorite!
Speachless.
Everything I watch Bireli, I get to the conclusion that he is playing a different instrument than me.
Same instrument...more talent.
He is playing in his own league …
Incroyable !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
in croyable!!
That. Was. Incredible.
There must be a reason why people dislike this. I can't see it, so I need someone to explain me why? How after watching this, one can dislike it.
you usually hear a few notes done with pinch harmonics - he did 45 seconds; that's amazing finger control
Birelli is such a beast!
So amazing! ;D
extra terreste du jazz manouche sublime
