Wich guitar would u recommend for a beginner clasical guitarist?
I gave q electric but since ive seen you're technice and hear the possibility,s im so gonna play classical now . But whas wondering what a good beginner choise would be. ❤ ty for youre contents
@@steffanfockenssf this might be a little late but Yamaha and Cordoba makes really good affordable classical guitars for beginners. Give one of them a shot.
That's $2,412 for each note on the fretboard.
You forgot the open string notes. So it's actually 275000 / (20*2 + 19*4) = $2,370.69 per note. And I won't pay a PENNY more!
@@justinutube lol 69
@@justinutube And he has to throw in the 5th, 7th and 12th fret harmonics for FREE!
@@billymays495 nice
This makes it look more expensive, lol. 275.000$ for the whole guitar, that's acceptable. But 2, 400$ for each note, that's way too much :)
He looks like the type of guy that you'll ask if he knows how to play and he'll say
"I'm not that good"
Alan Garcia good one
Did you see “crazy rich Asians”?

And when he plays he suddenly turns godly

This video legitimately made me go out and purchase a guitar. One year into learning classical guitar and I swear I'm going to play this piece some day.
Nice! Look into some Torroba as well. Some of my favorite pieces to play are from his "castles of spain" series.
You can start working on it with a year into it. I did, and although I got somewhat terrible results at the time, i learned a lot.
Learning this piece and doing it almost perfectly.. was def a satisfying feeling. Congrats to your 1 year in! Def an amazing journey❤️
McClearly how is it going?
@@methanealkane7442 Pretty well! Learning very slowly, but I'm enjoying the pieces I've learned so far. I tried to ignore having to learn chords, but they're too useful to ignore so I had to backtrack. Seems to be helpful just to learn how to move your fingers into ungodly positions :D
So this lovely vampire dude took care of his guitar for more than a hundred years only so he can play this piece for us today. Thank you mister vampire dude, we love you.

Nice comment
@@willstatmen9591 - thanks 😊
You must be a hell of a guitar player ...
it remembers me music in Hercules in New Your film with Arnie )
I studied classical guitar in Los Angeles in the early 70s. My teacher was a Spaniard named Manuel Sanguesa, an older man by then. His teacher was a student of Tarrega. Manuel told me a story of how his teacher couldn't afford lessons from the master, so he'd hang outside the window of the room in which Tarrega taught, and learn what he could by eavesdropping. Tarrega finally took pity on him and began to teach him free of charge. Manuel said his teacher was very frustrated that sound recording machines were not yet available when Tarrega lived, and that his beautiful playing was lost in history. But I'd say Brandon is a great substitute.
If your teacher's teacher frustated about that then it would be an amazing thing that lost in human history...
@@kokodayo5796 what? how come?
There's no recording of Tarrega, but I remember have heard some old recording of direct disciple of the master like Josefina Robledo here : czcams.com/video/VZAuj8HdE0c/video.html
Well, audio recording was invented in 1877, depends what year he was studying...
@@alfin9189 are you dumb?

This is gonna show up in every guitar players recommend right now
It's being recommended now.
It’s in my recommend and I don’t even play an instrument
I am only leaving this comment here so I can reply to it when the prophecy is fulfilled.
What a privilege playing that 130+ year old Torres. You deserve it bro.
Torres? Francisco Tárrega. 1892 Spain
I almost forgot, humans are capable of true greatness. The Maker, the Composer, the player. Incredible beauty.
Question does a guitar concerto with string quartet accompaniment need amplification of the guitar?
well said. everything about this is amazing
Juan de Torres, Granada, Spain, the maker, and in fact the inventor of the 6 string Spanish (Classical) guitar, which he did in Sevilla.
Tarrega, the composer, was from Villarreal, Castellón, Spain.
The player, I know not, but surely worthy of both the instrument and such a beautiful and famous piece.
@@sexymanicou3403
there are concertos for classical guitar and no need for amplification more than the player skills
I don't understand exactly that question
@@JulioLeonFandinho In the least , a guitar and string quartet bring difficulty as it is not as audible as the other. I guitar + orchestra is not a good medium ( I.M.P.)

This guy feels like a personification of the person you wanted to be when you picked up a guitar.
"Personification of the person"?

Classic😂
I feel special for getting the joke 😂
He plays like a dancer looking at their foot.
The emotion put into this rendition is truly inspirational. Bravo, young lad.
"young lad" he's a 2000 year old vampire
Question does a guitar concerto with string quartet accompaniment need amplification of the guitar?
I have been playing the guitar for 12 years... and consider myself quite good at it. I mainly play rock/metal and things like that. Thus video has reaalllyyyy humbled me and I may go out and pick myself up a classical guitar and try to learn some of this style. Absolutely amazing 👏
good luck you will see, as I tried this piece this also thinking that it is not fast so I could play some parts.. you will understand how this guy is a master... each not each played correctly at the right level, balanced between bass and high strings.. this is very difficult for electric guitar players like us.. the finger touch is really something
So.... How's it goin on that journey?
Brandon was a metal head too, used to play shred guitar and got turned on to classical music. I was the same, played 7 years learning nothing but metal and eventually fell in love with blues. I also really like bluegrass, not from that culture at all but I find it so beautiful. Love mountain music
That's not a $275,000 guitar.... that's a $10M guitarist.
Is he really that good?
Breck Breckenridge yes......
@@fgb3126 He's actually insane, from his VERY clean technique to his dynamics in his playing, yes, he really is that good.

This dude is helping define what a modern classical musician is. People value this kind of intimacy. Bravo!
It sounded great on my stereo, I have horn speakers so this was very lively.
I grew up having fun attending many rock concerts and festivals from my first concert AC/DC way back in 1981 and many more since.
I'm 56 now still love ZEP, SABBATH, TED, RUSH also loved Jerry Garcia from The Grateful Dead etc...
It's that guitar sound i admire. How these artists created this beautiful sound with the chords they reached from years of practice sitting alone in their room wanting to become more than just a good player.
The way you play this piece by Francisco Tarrega is so pure, so exacting. Yes I like rock n roll but it's anyone who can bring out the best within themselves as a guitar player.
I've shown family and friends and said
" Look how beautifully this guy Brandon plays this song. Look at his hands"
As you're playing your arms, hands and facial expressions become
" the instrument " it sounds so great.
I've watch other videos but nobody is as good as you Brandon. If you ever tour out in Southern California or Riverside area I'll be front row center enjoying that beautiful guitar sound but this time I won't be shouting and banging my head like I did attending all those gigs in the past 35+ years.
This man is beyond talented, the way he makes it sing, weep, it’s all so…. Idk the word for it. I just love watching & listening to Brandon play. Thank you Rob Scallon for introducing me to such a fine musician!
Mesmerizing, enticing, mellow, sweet and beautifully long gone yet present sadness is what this guitar and the fingers playing it has stirred. I'm here because of Scallon's video with Marshall and Acker too.
@@nah9585 well said.
He's got the duende. Mr, Gatlif explains better here: czcams.com/video/wBXfVA6HuUc/video.html
Came here from Rob as well :D
Excellent playing skills, but for me the lower notes lack bass….which may, of course be down to recording technique or equipment. I tend to compare classical guitar sound with the quality of tones and dynamics demonstrated by Maestro Andres Segovia who credited much more to the quality of your finger nails than to the instrument!
Click for the price tag and stay for the skill and sound. Very nice.

@@Navarroonn which episode???
@@mypfpisbetterthanyours5177 hmmmm 3rd Spiderman movie?
As I'm currently learning this, I just have to say Brandon's intonation is just excellent in this piece. Every little premeditated stoppage with that extra flair to add emotional toil to his rendition makes this arrangement that much more complex and wonderful.
I've listened to your Capricho Arabe a zillion times and, still, it surprises me, each and every time, again and again. It's just the best interpretation I've found on YTube, so many thanks for sharing this magical piece with all of us, thanks a zillion ! I'm now going back to playing after 35 years ... wish I will get back to where I was, a long long time ago ... not giving up :)
Hi Mariarosapacorigh I hope my comment didn't sound as a form of privacy invasion your comment tells of a wonderful woman with a beautiful heart which led me to comment I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserve this complement. If you don’t mind can we be friends? Thanks God bless you….🌹🌹
@frankuvlkan embarrassing.
Normally people can't play this melody correctly. This was perfect. Francisco would be proud.
I can’t tell. I’ve heard this famous piece often. But, it all sounded different this time. I guess so much depends on the guitarist. For two years in a row i had season tickets at in an close setting for guitarists worldwide (good old days). If a french, or Italian, or english or Brazilian all played the same piece, the playing oddly reflected their own country. I was always amazed. I don’t know if it’s intentional or not.
I think Christopher Parkening does a fantastic job with it. One of my personal favorites.
Wrong. I consider normal and still play it
@@hernanmazzini5277 post a better video, then you can troll my comment.
@@megahaze5101 I don't even think he was replying to you specifically. I also think its pretty clear that English is not his first language. Lighten up bud.
what a miracle that a 1888 Torres guitar did cross road with Brandon in 2019... 131 year old dream come true ! That guitar was made to play Capricho Árabe...
I agree!! Brandon should record an album with this Torres if he can get access again!1
Oddly it seems a little too defined for this piece. Or it could be I’m not used to hearing this piece with so much noted definition. Either way, well played on truly remarkable instrument. De Torres really knew his stuff.
It really is the perfect guitar for Capricho Árabe. Wikipedia includes 3 guitars that Tárrega was known to own. All 3 are Torres guitars. The first was a 1864 that Torres personally gifted to him after hearing Tárrega play and the 3rd was a 1888 Torres guitar SE 114, Tárrega's last and reportedly favorite guitar. The guitar that Brandon is playing is the 1888 Torres SE 124. Built the same year and built with the same internals as Tárrega's 114. As Capricho Árabe was written 4 years later in 1892 it's possible that it was written by Tárrega using his 1888 Torres SE 114, the almost-twin of this 1888 Torres SE 124
I think ''he'' was around when it was made. Him being a vampire and all. He probably lost it in one of the great wars and now just found it again.
Playing this piece for solo and ensemble and will be my final high school solo, easily the most challenging thing I've ever played
Good luck!!
You do not play it. You dance it. So free and beautifully played. I mean “everyone” has heard this piece one thousand times. So, it takes a lot to make the listener, i.e. me, cry listening to it again.
I can easily make it sound like a $30 guitar 😂
:D :D
Hysterical
Love this comment
Ikr, and a good guitar player can make a pawn shop guitar sound like a metal god lmao, 250k.. pphhsshh...
@@Devogor Well, that is not really a 250000$ guitar, most of that is collector worth. But talking about metal god: An electrical guitar is a quite cheap industrial product that will soon sound good, and once you do things like metal where you add a lot of distortion, the influence of the quality on the sound decreases.
So on a metal guitar the things that actually matter most are playability and tuning stability, not sound.
A classical guitar is quite different, because it has to be built to amplify the sound by resonance as well as to project the sound well into the room. Here the quality of the instrument has quite an impact on both tone and loudness. Your typical pawn shop guitar will probably have a to thick top (this is easier to produce and takes more abuse). Thus you won’t acheive the resonance you need on a professional instrument.
And I could drag it down to tbe $15 range +/- a handful of change.

@@Mundillou picture of dorian grey. give it a go

I will never forget the first time I heard a Classical guitar played correctly. I was in Seattle...wandering around the Public Market sometime in the 90's. In one of the lower level stairwells I heard what I thought was a Piano. I went to investigate and was slack jawed to see this old guy just playing a guitar. I sat there for the next hour...damn near in tears.
I learned to play this properly yesterday. By yesterday, I mean I finally managed to play through the entire song without messing up yesterday. I've been learning this song for more than a month.
It's such a beautiful song, and playing it is just so satisfying. I've never really learned any classical song before but as soon as I heard this song I wanted to learn it. Now I only have to learn to play it as well as this guy.
Wow, that's awesome
I'm always impressed by how little classical guitarist's fingers seem to move compared to how many notes are played
Very true. So much is in the technique and ridiculous amounts of practice time wise.
that's how everyone should play if they learned guitar properly
It's all in position and knowing which finger needs to be the anchor point.
Right. I could never figure that out.
It’s economy of movement, something shared across both classic and modern guitar. You move as little as you possibly can while still preforming all the motions necessary
I stopped playing classical guitar when i was 15 and cut my tendon in my figure in an accident. This, honestly, is the most beautiful, soul touching thing I've heard in a long long time.
Part of me pushed away classical guitar music to cope with losing the ability to play it and this has just reignited that love. Wow. Just wow.
(ps. it's not all sad, i ended up becoming a decent drummer when i quit guitar!)
Ah, so that's how drummers are created!
What a story. And so nice you can be touched and willing to put a few words to it.
I’m sorry you cannot play the worlds greatest instrument. Continue to love it though ❤️

I been playing for 35 years..........closed my eyes.....and felt at peace.
Same here. Haven't felt that emotion in a long time. So much better with good headphones and eyes closed
When my godfather went to Spain, I was about 6 years old. He sent a 2 disc set of Segovia recordings. There weren’t any classical teachers near me, but this was one of the pieces that encouraged me to keep at the guitar. A decade of jazz later and I still can’t play it, but I do love hearing it and being reminded of a time when I’d curl up to go to sleep while thinking of my family across the sea. Thank you for this.
I first heard a snippet of this song on an online Encyclopedia CD that came with my 2000 Compaq computer. I was hooked (didn't know it was this song until like 15 years later)...took me a while but I finally learned this a few years back. Keep at it, you can do it!
My brother in law said last week that "no one plays instruments anymore, it's archaic, people do electronic music now". He couldn't be anymore wrong, and I feel sad for those who can't appreciate mastery and elegance interpreted in this beautiful music. Well done.
I'm torn between the gratification of the sounds I'm listening to and witnessing the sheer joy of the musician in creating them. Brilliantly done.
How can a man be so likable, such a nice person, a friend to Rob and still be so in depth with music and have such an ability.
In my experience musicians of this level are just arrogant thats why I say it
It's weird because I've noticed that classical guitarists, who are both guitarists and classical musicians, two groups of people known to have a lot of arrogant individuals, are seemingly the most humble of the two groups.
In my experience as a professional musician, the better the musician, the more humble they tend to be. Not that there aren't douches among them.
@@jtbsax I've known some top end pros and on a personal level most are humble. Some of the snarky one are that way because of the crude public's BS.
Comes with centuries of life experience. Remember, he bought all those old ass instruments when they were new, learned all this stuff when it was hot shit back in the day. Of course, the vampiric attraction power doesn't hurt either.

I understand that classical guitar music isnt everyone's choice but negative comments on here must be from very jealous people that obviously do not have the ability this guy has and never will...his playing is sublime and the piece of music chosen is beautiful...
Totally agree,as a classical guitarist and tutor , his interpretation and method is of very high quality,trolls like the above no-brainers are the type of people who give up after 1 0r 2 lessons.p.
I used to play a Lot of Blues and Jazz, and did not understand why someone would play only classical music when you can learn Hendrix or SRV.

This is not classical music. It is contemporay / late modern music.
@@mr_elyte Quite wrong. This is classical guitar music of the romantic era. Please do your research before spouting nonsense.
making mistakes is a great way to find new melodies. I a little bonus for being not so great at playing. lol.
I’ve been trying to figure out why you're such a great classical player. And after much thought here is my analysis…
You started out as a standard steel string player with today’s music.. But after studying the classical world your musical connections and tech abilities were magnified. You always had these abilities laying dormant inside of you, but they were not nurtured. The composers of yesterday unleashed your potential.
You must feel exonerated at this point… I just wonder where all this is going to take you down the road. Guessing it’s going to be blissful.
I would love to feel just a small part of your connection for myself. Classical guitar is such a wonderful expression of life.😊
This gives me chills every time I listen to it, its just that good.
At this quality level, both of the guitar and the player, Brandon doesn’t play the the guitar, it plays him.
Beautifully performed and great song choice.

You sounded so beautiful I actually cried I'm happy to have discovered you and I'm happy to say you have a new fan
Brandon really is a fantastic player. Ive heard many versions of this piece and his is one of my favorite. Hes legit.
If this MASTER ARTIST does not OWN this fabulous instrument --- HE SHOULD. He gives it a voice that is befitting the maker and the price.
I found this gem of a guitarist last year and I'm so glad he is getting all these opportunities now! Playing a Torres is an honour you deserve as a guitarist.
Forza Magico Milan! :)
Now I know why I can not play like this: I have the wrong guitar!
Spend 275k on a guitar and you'll be able to play like this
So true
Enchanted guitar. Nothing new. Seen a few for sale at the elves' workshop in the forest of Amad'ir a few years back.
They only accept gold coin. That or Grimlac leaves from Mudbone Myre, but you ain't getting out of there alive. Best bring the coin.
Sebi One is this lore from some tabletop/mmorpg, or are these phrases of your own creation? either way, nice lol
Guitar doesn't matter...
It's the player.
I can't remember how many times I have listened to this. Exquisite. Such delicate touch. Bravo!
Of all the renditions of this song I have seen and heard, this one definitely feels most like how I always imagined Tarrega would have performed it. Bravo!
This man's control is deserving of an attempt on this rare instrument. He was prepared for sure. Wonderful job. 🤘
Cyn Hicks For this price you should never have to tune this guitar or change its strings ever. They should always be fresh and in tune.
I’ve been playing guitar for about 40 years and have heard all kinds of guitars & players. Everything about that rendition was outstanding. The instrument, piece of music, musician & performance. Truly beautiful. Thanks for uploading.
It is always such a pleasure to come across your videos, Brandon
One of my favorites of all time, the beauty is indescribable. Fantastic interpretation Brandon, the level of execution is flawless!
Hi Carlossantamaria I hope my comment didn't sound as a form of privacy invasion your comment tells of a wonderful woman with a beautiful heart which led me to comment I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserve this complement. If you don’t mind can we be friends? Thanks God bless you….🌹🌹
I need like three straight hours of this kinda stuff.
spoocyguy Spotify Playlist “Classical Spanish Guitar” by antoniobranca. I think it’s like 900 songs?
JustAnotherGrunt I don’t have Spotify! Good look tho
spoocyguy I’m sure if you look that up on whatever you do have you’ll find a hit.
I'll give you 4 hours of this from the father of Spanish guitar and also the original author of this piece. czcams.com/video/weQz5tGEKwE/video.html
David Russel has a CD of complete Tarrega works up until the point of recording it as new pieces are being discovered
This guy inspires me............., to sell my guitar.
XD Lol
Heading out to toss mine in the dumpster after the video.
@Samuel Same!
funny
does it cost $270K?
I studied classical guitar when I was a music major in my undergrad years, before changing majors. I have come to appreciate that experience so much more after watching Brandon's videos, especially on the history of the instrument. It's an honor to be a small part of the experience of guitarists around the world.
Honestly I keep coming back to this. This is my favorite interpretation. Thank you Brandon.
Thanks for using the accent mark on the a (Á). I know it's a minor detail but we spanish speakers appreciate it a lot. We believe that its absence is understandable given that the internet is in english but its presence shows appreciation for the language and cultures relating to it.
Came for the guitar, stayed for the playing. Beautiful!
Greetings from Brazil Brother.
That song is amazing and your interpretation is beautiful. Congratulations
perfect playing, perfect composition, and this on one of the greatest guitars I heard in my life....so thanks to all who contributed to this (Brandon, Tarrega and A. Torres = perfect match).
I don't know what's more impressive, the guitar or the guitarist. You make me want to grow my nails out again. Incredible playing. 👍
I think I’d feel more comfortable holding a newborn infant than handling this guitar
I'd be more comfortable DROPPING a newborn than holding this thing!
Newborn babies don't cost $275,000.
@@PoutinePete however they do cost a lot of money to *maintain*
@@Ro-hf4eb Here in the UAE, paying for a child's education from kindergarten all the way up to university still wouldn't cost as much as this guitar, and the UAE is an expensive place to live in (Not a flex, I'm poor)
@@Ro-hf4eb that's why Bjb feels comfortable dropping a baby, so there will be no maintenance cost =))
What makes this rendition so beautiful is not just the piece itself, but the interpretation he puts in it.... as an amateur guitarist I apreciate you, Bravos
