I took guitar in high school. I found this exact sheet music piece in a parking lot. While everyone sat around plucking and learning music theory, I spent the entire semester learning it by heart and then played it for my grade at the end. My teacher was wide eyed and speechless. Lol. I didn't go on to be a guitar expert but I can still play this by heart somehow. I don't even know how I remember what to do haha
Me too. I learned to play Blackbird from a friend back in the late 60s. It's so intricate to play. Never knew till recently the history behind it. I was always interested in how he came up with it.
Jethro Tull’s live version on CZcams (French TV 1969 La Jocund) is by far and away the most prodigious rendering of this beautiful piece. Superlative musicianship displayed with amazing cameo solos..
Well played with accuracy! ❤ This piece is rather short but it demonstrates Bach’s genius of counterpoints to a great extend. Here the melody on the first string is overshadowed by the base line melody, rendering a convoluted mixture of notes, I’d like to see the melody line on the first string to be more of a prominent position, vis-à-vis a key note speaker in a dialogue where it can interact with the base line melody throughout the piece.
In a time of homelessnes I learned this 1:46 minute piece of greatness. It took most of a year. I've come to watch new technique and remember. I have forgotten the last one-third but this has already helped.
I didn't even catch that, thought it was the usual trill with fast hammer on and pull off, but he doesn't do it with the left hand it seems! He's probably choosing a fingering where the trill notes can be played on adjacent strings and then he does a kind of rasgueado-like tremolo I guess, where you alternate quickly between all fingers to strike the strings? (to me it sounds like that because it's very percussive sounding. If you use all fingers from pinky to index you can do exactly a 4 note trill)
How exactly do you do that trill at :22 ?? I play it by using a major 3rd dyad and hammering on the 4th but I do believe thats not correct. Everyone else on youtube plays it that way except for you and my first guitar instructor and ive been trying to figure it out for years
Excellent but i think there's a mistake in the partition you play compared to the original. There's a missing part in the beginning of the second movement in the second part.

NICE!!! such a great song, i’m out of high school too and this song is amazing for classical guitar
You never forget what you learn by heart.
Is there a grade higher than A? Because you deserve it
@@miguellacruz4751 say that again but in a different setting and it might win a Nobel prize
Muscle memory is real
Can’t you see he’s the man let me hear you applaud
He is more than a man, he’s a shiny golden god!

This is a glorious piece that even non classical enjoyers enjoy.
Yes I love Bach.
@@jacobbarnes1453 me too Bro, the master of polyphony
I definitely enjoy classical.
love to enjoy in the enjoyers as well . good post
Or those into Jethro Tull
Love it! I was watching an interview of Paul McCartney taking about The Beatles song “Blackbird” and how it was based off this.
That's what got me here too
Me too. I learned to play Blackbird from a friend back in the late 60s. It's so intricate to play. Never knew till recently the history behind it. I was always interested in how he came up with it.
Jimmy Page said Stairway came from this too.
The definitive version on guitar. As a child, my dad used to serenade me before bedtime every night with this on his flamenco guitar.
Lyrics for the first part:
Can't you see he's the man,
Let me hear you applaud,
He is more than a man
He's a shiny golden god.
Fun fact: Bach in German means small river/body of flowing water.
Fun fact: if Bach was portuguese, his name would be João Sebastião Ribeiro.
@@desiderioelielton2051 In France we call him Jean-Sébastien Bach (and we pronounce it Back) :D
@@aq6390 , in Brazil, we used to call him João Sebastião Bach, but now we do not do it, unfortunately.
Which is why Beethoven once said "Bach sollte nicht Bach, sondern Meer heißen", "Bach shouldn't have been called Bach (= brook) but sea" :D
Fun fact: in modern English Bach translates too “shiny golden god”
Very cool! Beautiful and fantastic!
I know this one from Jethro Tull back in the 70's. It starts like this and then gets more jazzy and wild.
Jethro Tull’s live version on CZcams (French TV 1969 La Jocund) is by far and away the most prodigious rendering of this beautiful piece. Superlative musicianship displayed with amazing cameo solos..
Magnífico.
Lovely playing! A musical performance!
Very, very beautiful rendition. I love it.
I am learning the piece right now. Such a great performance. Watched it many times. Thank you
Well played bro.. A classic piece played in front of a classic scenery with probably a favourite drink.. What more do we need !!

У кого?
Don't you see his the man let me hear you applaud
He is more than a man

Excellent tempo.
Nice view.. Good playing..
Thank you for playing this on CZcams, I have practiced this for years and don't remember the name. Now I can practice again with sheet music.
Beautiful thanks.
¡Muchas gracias por la interpretación! El tempo es perfecto.
Very nice I like your work 👍
Great playing!
Bravo!
how romantic! ✨
Magnificent

Bellissima
Stunning and transcendent playing. Not 'showy' at all, truthful! JEM
Bravoo
Thank you for playing my piece.
Nice playing. Tums up. I had said there is a little more in the second section but... what the hey 👋
Yes there is.
Yeah! Agreed....
also the C in the bass at the end of the first section
Muy bueno
Cool cool cool
Brava!
Beautiful performance and a lovely video. Could've been perfect if the sound of the breeze outside had been captured.
Well done! I'm still practicing this one. takes me 5 minutes for the whole thing with lots mistakes haha 😀
Muito bonito
en détente le kho
nice :) :D I like it!
Been trying to learn this song fir about a month and it is not easy
Wow
me : mum can we have blackbird?
my mum : we have blackbird at home
the blackbird at home :
also absolutely no hate. love this piece
Better than blackbird
Wow.. nice idea of using such a mic to record
Nice
Wonderful. I wish I could get my brain to make my fingers work like that. Fat chance. lol.
cool
ヘビメタギタリスト登場！🍒Good Video !👍👍👍
The fact that he didn’t use a greenscreen, to honor this Bach masterpiece, is like and subscribe worthy.
I can almost hear a Blackbird singing.
Classico
wtf that thumbnail? :D
Hahahahahah 😂😂

I think you need to check the original score of the B section
Correct. I noticed he's missing a small part there. I've heard this piece too many times. Thought I was tripping lol.
He missed that part where

Nice, but how do you do that tremolo or trill? can you show us please?
Very nice! I'm curious about the mic clipped to your guitar - what is it? I've not seen one like that before. Thanks.
Cuz if you think it’s time to fucking rock and fucking roll out of control
The inspiration for Blackbird (The Beatles)
Guitar and acoustic guitar
i have a contest today, and i'm playing that as the first piece! Wish me luck!
btw thats very nice playing
how’d it go?? great song choice!
@@guitarforall262 yup....
i won!
Well done mate
@@matteoperrucci7705 thx
@@danieshaliev1577 Good job

How do you make the tremolo sounds with your right hand? Never seen this before
I didn't even catch that, thought it was the usual trill with fast hammer on and pull off, but he doesn't do it with the left hand it seems! He's probably choosing a fingering where the trill notes can be played on adjacent strings and then he does a kind of rasgueado-like tremolo I guess, where you alternate quickly between all fingers to strike the strings? (to me it sounds like that because it's very percussive sounding. If you use all fingers from pinky to index you can do exactly a 4 note trill)
where is he playing this? the place is beautiful

Love it; what sheet did you use ?
Tysm
Did you get that right in the second part after the descending bass line you kinda start over my arrangement is different.
Exactly. It sounds better the way it was written. Nobody seems knows the piece, or have an ear for music. What a wasted effort!
GIVE IT UP FOR KG GIVE IT UP FOR ME
So Paul McCartney says he wrote his Blackbird based on this.
I bet most of the young hipsters who fawn over the Beatles now have never even heard of Bach sadly.
This inspired Ilayaraja to write one of his songs
Awesome scenery! Where is this?
in his house
It's somewhere on Earth

Estaba en Granada?
Please tell me what Microphone you are using to record with?
He is using a Danish mic called DPA.
So Hard
Great! I suggest you to do some eq.
There are some harsh frequencies around high bass - low mids
Excellent but i think there's a mistake in the partition you play compared to the original. There's a missing part in the beginning of the second movement in the second part.
Glad i wasnt the only one who noticed!
There is missing some phase on the second part twice.
Hvordan klarede du den trille klokken 0:36? Jeg har prøvet dette i dagevis!
Can I have the tabs for this?
Who is the person in the thumbnail?
What's the location?

Complimenti! Mi chiedevo solo come mai manca un passaggio tra batt.12 e 13… 😮
out of curiosity, why did you skip a part??
