It makes me happy to see these guitars being played and not sitting idle.
It's pretty amazing that they're still in such amazing playable condition. Guess the dude knew what he was doing.
I find your performance of Gran Vals on this 1862 Torres such a delight. It always makes me smile even on a bad day. Thanks
That first one is magical. George does an excellent job as usual. I've watched a couple of his vids here and he's one of my favorites. Just plays without all the facial silliness of some of the others. Well done!
All of these songs have been portrayed masterfully. My favorites were Andrew York and Johannes Moller. Such emotions, passion, precision, perfection from these 2 men has not gone unnoticed. Thank you for posting this. Those guitars all were made in the 1800's and still have superb quality of sound. Very impressive!❤👏👏👏👏👏👏
The last piece was just splendid .I really felt the player and his emotions mixing with the guitar.
Such a magical piece - says it all about "Home". Love to listen - does amazing things to lowering blood pressure!
Really peaceful
home is such a sweet candy for the ears...that first piece was also a master composition and excecuted perfectly. That last tune was very interesting..it simulated an echotape machine..
A quantidade de som dos violões de Antônio de Torres continuam a nos surpreende mesmo depois de um século de sua construção. Boa resposta dinâmica e sustentação. Que som bonito!
Home is gorgeous .
Torres was a genius.
Beautiful, beautiful song by Andrew God bless you
Beauty, beauty, beauty.
Wow !. so beautifull Home performance !
For me, it doesn’t matter how much they are as I won’t be able to see them in my living room in my life time, but wait… lottery… I really love small Torres guitars. There is something about feeling like sweet tones sinking into my soul sort of like healing water. Something mysterious. They will be my life time dream guitars.
Amazing.... Guitars of 130 years old... All beautyful... A special mention to Andrew York..... No explanations, no words.... Just joy.... As usual, thanks Siccas, I feel bless to have found this channel....

Wonderful !

This video taught me that one should be listening as one is playing. I play Fingerstyle and all these artists are listening to the sounds of the music more than looking at what they are doing on the guitar. Big learning lesson for me is to "Open Up My Ears" when playing. To feel the music just as much as you are playing.
@Joa...keep
that thought in your mind as you practice and play and everything will fall into place. Once you feel that passion you have opened yourself to really playing.
@@kathyhollenbach7413 Thanks Kathy your comment helps me to understand how to produce music more as it should be.
Thank You for this wonderful performance; all the solists have a sensitive feeling for the development of music,
so that the dynamic follows the harmony and with agogic moments the listener is directed
to the special points of changing the character. Bravo !
Beautiful
All are superb. However, the emotion and feeling from Andrew is very moving. Hearing this live would be a gift.
Just a bit overdone I'd say.
Très belle performance C'est Excellent
would love to earn a torres. the sound and tone is surreal
Linda a música Home, abraços do Brasil
Bravo Moller!!!!!
Bálsamo.💖
Thank you so much George, this is lovely!
Superb
I have a, very budget, 7/8 Thomann guitar, I’m delighted with. I’m even more delighted to learn that this is more like the size of the original Torres jobs
Of these four, the 1888 is by far the best guitar
Maravilloso 🙏🌹
Having listened to these masterpieces over and over makes me wonder if the construction of CGs has taken any significant forward leap at all, considering I own Smallman copy - not made by him of course - and the Double Top Dammann Guitar as well a Torres replica which I tend to 'caress' more often.
Torres bracing designed guitar stil the best
I love how this guy loves this..💌
He is in his little world, and it’s one of the most infectious pieces I’ve heard from this channel, because of the heart in his playing.
Ripper.
The one played by Andrew York is one of a kind guitar. It museum piece art grade 👏👏 I wonder how much it worths
The tone and clarity from it is just wonderful. Helped along by York's playing, of course. :)
It's worth whatever price a seller wants and if the buyer is willing to pay it. Actually, guitars are small beans. Violins have sold for millions.
Very polished performance
It sing like an angel!
Amazing guitarists and guitars!!
Is there a FLAC version please? Thank you!
They should play this magical music where there are many people,malls,churches,trains,city halls,government offices etc
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
🥰🥰🥰
What a sound. Anyone have a suggestion for a modern instrument with similar characteristics to 1862 Torres?
Beauty...
Can someone comment on what strings are used in the 1862 Antonio de Torres?
Andrew York has a sleeve of a wizard.
very nice
I wish I was in the same room when these were recorded. iPad speakers don’t get all of it.
My recommend the Bose speaker you may try
Try some Bose speakers!!! Wow!!!
Try some real speakers setup, with low end, it sounds wonderful
🎶🎵🤗🤗🌹
Очень понравилось
Antonio de Torres change the history of the guitar.
What size is that classical guitar he is playing?
Estas guitarras tienen la tapa de cedro o de abeto?
Saludos,
Abeto , all of them, No Cedro Tops in those Times, Cedro went popular with Ramirez in 1960 s
Que som de veludo
I'm a steel string player and don't know much about nylon strings. How much would one of these guitars cost? Just curious.
A Torres? Original? Cheapest I've ever seen is around 50 thousand dollars. It was a beaten up one though, more common is between 150k to 200k. They're expensive!
🥶🥶🥶
Nathan, mate, Torres guitars are the guitar equivalent of Stradivarius violins. They're that big a deal. Torres single handedly invented the modern guitar, everything we think of as standard in a guitar today is something that he came up with, for example having 6 single strings (most guitars before then had double strings for each string, like you'd see on a modern 12 string guitar, which is just a 6 string guitar with each string being doubled, playing the exact same note but just at a higher octave). So not only are they basically still the best classical guitars out there, they're also incredibly historically important, they're museum pieces. So yeah, you're not gonna ever buy one. Nobody here is. There's plenty of fantastic classical guitars out there these days that are as good in quality as these but are a fraction of the price, and also are guitars you'll actually play. These Torres guitars, even if you owned one, you'd never want to play them or even touch them, because of the risk of accidentally damaging them. You would rather be safe than sorry. That's why instruments like these and Stradivarius violins are mostly in museums, with very few being regularly played anymore.
Besides the sweet but classic sound, all these Torres guitars have exceptional intonation. Granted, I'm not sure if any intonation work has been done after the math besides all the restoration, if not then Torres is truly amazing!!
In the thorough research for his book on the life and work of Antonio de Torres, the late Jose Romanillos pointed out that early guitars (including 'La Leona') had poor intonation (pp 144-145 of the classic study).
Who wrote Eternal Dream? Where can I find the sheet music?
The performer.
You can probably buy it on his website
Anyone knowledgeable enough to share what the advantages and disadvantages of torres style guitars are as compared to say hauser or fleta? Thanks.
I don't think there are any advantages or disadvantages to any of the guitars you mentioned. They're all made by master luthiers. The major difference is in the way they sound----that's what separates them from each other.
@@danalain4126 that's a great reply. Thanks! What would a woodier sound be? And how would the hauser and torres compare to a fleta, lattice or double top guitar?
@@danalain4126 thank you for your detailed reply. I understand what you mean by woody now when you said it sounds like tapping of the sound board. I shall take some time to digest what you've said. Again thank you.
I didnt know the Nokia tune was written by Tarrega! (00.51)
Are there luthiers alive today that can capture "that" tone and for a reasonable price? That tone is so easy on the ears. Great videos and players.
yes they are, but really difficult to find.. it depends what is "reasonable" for you.. In Argentina and Spain you will find some
@@AngelHadzi Thank you very much!
Do you have any names of Torres style makers that I could speak with?
😀😃
I think I like the sound of the two First Epoch Torres more than the Second.
He played the tune used on a computer
The guitars sound fantastic, and I would have it a guess that they have much better strings on them these days.
That's a good point that you raise. I wonder if these instruments were strung with nylon, gut, or a combination for these performances.
Back when these guitars were made, they would've all been strung with gut and silk.
@@GarySchiltz originally these guitars would've been strung with gut when first built. However in this videos the performances are with modern strings, either nylon or carbon.
@@musictime23752 The reason I asked is because I wonder how much additional tension the nylon or carbon strings have compared with gut, and whether these classics can handle the stress.
@@GarySchiltz I have an old Parres Guitar of the same timeframe I use medium tension nylon strings without any problems.
Siccas Guitars should sometimes provide two soundtracks of the same performance. One recorded professionally where we do not hear any room acoustic(NORMAL) and another where we hear room acoustics. They are very different and sometimes give greater feeling of the sound of the guitar.
Siccas is not GSI 🤔 but their videos are looking quiet similar
Where did GSI find this guitar?!?
Nokia tone composed by Francisco Tarrega!
You didn’t pay attention to the screen? It does say that.
Which guitar is shown in the pictures between the songs?
Vraiment dommage pour la Torres d Emilio pujol avec des cordes nylon il y a un son plus metalique ou plastique
The 1st guitar is the best one. And it has no tornavoz!
Of course, these guitars would have been fitted with gut trebles and silk-overwound bass strings when made and their sound would have been rather different. Also, these recordings have the 'gain' produced by the recording process and if we had been present at the time, in the acoustic of the venue, would have sounded...........
I find it very disturbing that there is no mention of the strings used. I feel a very large % of the sound is determined by where it originates- the string. Try Optima Gold wounds and Gut plains on any guitar and you will see what I mean. Of course nails or no nails, and the player matters. But ı find it shameful that such supposedly well thought of demos dont mention the strings used. Am I wrong?

タルレガはオリジナルしか
弾かなかった。
最愛の母を亡くした彼は、1871年、兵役に入りますが、軍隊から帰った彼に、親しい友人の一人であるブリアーニの実業家アントニオ・カネサ(Antonio Canesa)は、 タレガのマドリッドでの音楽修行の為の学費援助を約束し、また、この理解ある後援者によって、当時、最も有名なギター製作家、 セビリアの名工アントニオ・トーレス(Antonio de Torres Jurado)の名器を手にすることが出来ました。
Oh, my--is this guitar porn really allowed? Me likey!
