As always, thank you so much for watching, and thank you to all of you that leave comments. - Hudba
Nahre - you’re by far the sweetest person I’ve had the pleasure to meet in this industry. Thank you so much for the greatest & most peaceful time we had at Universal Audio. I had lots of fun and felt so comfortable to share a little of my experience over these years about my music journey. You are an outstanding artist who I had the honor to spend some hours playing music with. I deeply appreciate all the words you said on this video about myself. You are one of a kind. You’ve got an eternal fan and a friend.
Best,
Mateus.
i'm starstrucked
Você é incrível meu mano, só energia boa emana de vocês dois. Muita luz.
class
gentleman ❤ you're both amazing!!
que vídeo bom, grande Mateus! vibe incrível
And she gives tabs also. What a queen.
Right?? I was thinking just that
She’s asking all the right questions, and she’s not even a guitar player!!! Most helpful Mateus asato interview I’ve ever seen
💯 agree
I was also thinking the same👌
She's asking the exact questions that i was hoping they would ask in all of mateus asato interviews
All possible questions I could've had regarding Mateus Asato's playing have been posed to the aforementioned artist and ofcourse thoroughly answered, whereas in other videos a lack of capacity and creativity has been noticed, I'm not implying the ones asked by s certain R.B.
I think she has the same pace as Mateus Asato. She listened to his answers well, then gave him time to explain things in his mind, and asked the right continuative questions. Very good interviewer.
a wise man once said, the magic you are looking for is on the work you are avoiding. Memorize the fretboard.
“First person to do a cover with and a cover period”? Isn’t that the definition of playing classical music, centuries of covers?🙂
If you look at it that way yes 😂
Yes. Classical musicians are cover artists and all Orchestras are cover bands. Often with poor musical interpretations.
"The guitar as digested by a classical pianists" sounds like a great video title if you ask me!
Nahre took banjo lessons from none other than Bela Fleck and Abigail Washburn
That’s not a great title for the video, if you ask me…
You need to listen to him playing Heroes Of Sand
id lovw to see that video!!!!!!the guitar is like 6 mini microtonal pianos, ive the black notes drawn on my frets to learn piano and it made me SM better at both
@@minyaminilla Not microtonal
for me, as a mateus's friend since he was around 10 years old, seeing him enthrall the world fills me with pride, especially for the affection he always had/has with me, never letting success separate us ❣️
Eu estudei no mesmo colégio dele o fleming, triste que isso nunca foi falado no colégio, eu que descobri um vídeo dele criancinha com a roupa do colégio hahaha muito orgulho desse cara
Guitar player here. I dont think ive ever heard 1 single clip of mateus that didnt feel like I was listening to a masterpiece. his slides slurs and use of triads is what I use the most when I play. watching mateus completely changed me from just a shred guy who wants to play neo classic licks and arpeggios all day to being a more mature, MUSICAL player. Like I used to think double stops and pentatonic sounds were lame and boomer until I heard mateus use this so often in his beautiful playing. yngwie is still king but mateus never has a clip that doesnt fill me with inspiration. I could literally listen to him play all day and every second feels completely brand new.
It's the difference between serving the music/song vs using the song as a vehicle to demonstrate technique. His style is worlds apart from Kark Knopfler but similar in a way that they both focus on serving the song, and they both let the beautiful sound of the guitar speak without being buried in effects and distortion. Their guitars "speak" and "tell stories". I contrast this with Malmstein, who obviously has killer technique but rarely lets the beauty of a simple melody surface. Or (flame retardant on) Gilmor who rarely plays anything but simple pentatonic boxes but has a huge arena sized sound with echoes, chorus, reverb etc. I wonder what old Dave would sound like if he tried to play the same simple stripped down stuff that Mateus was playing in this vid.
You forgot the SUHR's...
@@donald-parker I have to disagree. Gilmore is one of the most emotional players his use of pentatonics I dont even think he is conscious of scales. Some of gilmores solos are still to this day amongst the best most feel good sounds. You literally couldnt write a better or change any of gilmores solos. It is impossible to even improve his solos imo. And for malmsteen, his melodies is what I like the most tbh. His feel and vibrato is still to this day so spectacular. I think what people get wrong about malmsteen is they think hes just running through phrygian or harmonic minor licks. And that is trrue technically but the USE of his runs are so fantastically placed. Also, he is heavily influenced by bach and paganini. Saying a neo classical player is shit because they play scales is sort of closed minded imo. I still take classical pieces and rip them up to be more "metal" and it is the gift that keeps on giving. Some people ask how did i write this its so sick, thinking im a metal shred guy and im like yeah dude that riff is bach. I know it doesnt sound like it anymore. But it is. Ive written entire pieces where i was using bach or vivaldi to try to mimic an exact run and turn it into something else.
@@monitorlizard9971 To each his own. I've been playing for 50+ years and I'm sure the way I listen to guitar is very different than many. One of the big things for me is predictability vs surprise. I could pretty much play a Gilmor solo note for note after a listen or two - no surprises and very predictable. It doesn't mean it's bad or not emotional. God knows the arts (movies, paintings, books, and music) have portrayed emotions very deeply while still using common and predictable themes for centuries. But if it does not surprise me in some way, it will never delight me the same way as hearing a line that makes me think "wow! I would never have done that". Not dissing Gilmor in any way. But he doesn't surprise or delight me. And that's on me.
@@donald-parker well im 39 started playing in bands at around 19 and took lessons. Tbh with you, i used to not care for gilmore solos. Because thats "too ez" is it though? Older in my age ive been growing fonder and fonder of musicians I did always like but now am able to hear such nuance and play with nuance that I feel like I am never done learning even things I learned decades ago. I also just refuse to believe say or hear anything negative about some artists. Ive played and seen so many players and gilmores playing always screams legendary to me. Like I hear it immediately. Idk. My original teacher studied at berklees played with paul gilbert. He taught me a lot of yngwie, not because that was his thing but because I wanted to learn it. Thats how good he was. Then he would bust out a classical and play flemenco with perfect tremele and everything. So my point, Even then a lot of great players when you hear them play their sound isnt quite legend, like some legends. I would classify gilmore as a legend, for sure. He doesnt play perfect tremelo on classical or have yngwie chops but as soon as you hear it you know its something great. I also follow, if u look at my channel under guitar learn, many great players and teachers ect. And none of them are as legend as gil or yng. Imo.
This is kinda wild for me as a guitarist who came to your channel to learn more about your approach to piano playing and composition - it’s come full circle! I for one would love to watch your journey if you decide to pick up guitar too - I feel like your piano style could inform your potential guitar playing in so many cool ways.
Thank you so much… that is pretty wild 😄
Of course we would like to see Nahre Sol at the guitar! !
FIXED
Oh yes, indeed!
Narhe taking up guitar, absolutely!👌
This is the best interview of Mateus on CZcams, especially for someone who wants to learn his style. I like how Nahre has Mateus walk us through his method and how he thinks about his playing. It *almost* feels approachable broken down like this.
As a guitar player, Nahre is a huge inspiration to me. She motivates me to learn more and be disciplined.
It would be super fun to see her learning how to play the guitar 😂
omg yessss this collab is what I needed, need more from you two!!
Thank you!!
As a guitarist, this video was amazing. Thanks for interviewing Mateus on your channel, he's really one of the best!
As a student of these 2 instruments, but more of a beginner on the piano than on the guitar for several decades, I find that these learning worlds are opposed to each other. Piano requires a great deal of hand independence, whereas guitar requires good synchronization. That's why I feel that these are 2 worlds that require an effort to evolve and learn in opposite directions. Open chords on the guitar contain chord voicings in which no fingers are placed on any of the instrument's 6 strings (something that doesn't exist on the piano). This allows the guitar to offer its full resonance to the instrument, often resulting in a sound rich in harmonics. Big fan of both of you 😊
Try fingerpicking ragtimey on a guitar.
The filmography and audio in this video are really great
a lot of guitarists speak about the fretboard being a maze, that you slowly find different routes through, and what is really compelling for me about learning from other guitarists, is that it can feel like there almost playing a different instrument because of how they navigate.
Wow.. great video.. i didnt expect this kind of video from you as a pianist! But it is so good!
Thank you!!
Love that you two are collaborating! I took up guitar later, and at some point picked it up again, with the idea of letting it just be for my own comfort, with no rules or demands from myself. It has been so enriching for me, as a soothing thing. The inadvertent plus, is that now every time I play it big leaps in progress happen and my brain has this new mesh of wiring interconnections that I was never sure that it would ever get to. When I'm unable to let myself take the time to do anything else, playing my guitar has become my number one self care allowance. Letting myself have that time, to do whatever I feel.
Sending you all the vibes for comfort, fun, and joy❣️🤗✨✨✨🌸
Thank you!! And for sharing your experience!!
same as me. I reached burn out because all I tried to do is play dream theatre and yngwie solos. Took a HUUUUGE long break, like a decade. come back and it took a while but my playing is so much more mature and beautiful, and musical. and I credit it to all the new players who keep it fresh like I am loving these neo soul players who just forced me to settle down, dont stress, SLOOOOW DOWN to one single note if you gotta, and just make the good sounds. the stress of being the best, or technically outstanding or impressive just made me grow gray hairs in my teens. Learning to just live and enjoy the instrument and the music is another inspiration. Listening to mateus helps me a lot to remember this.
my fav guitarist
You young lady, besides your evident inner and outer beauty, really really know how to conduct an interview. These 10 minutes are pure GOLD for us guitar lovers. And those pentagrams plus tabs synchronized with Mateus playing...oh gosh how I love you!!! Once again, you are AMAZING...Hugs from Spain...and of course...SUSCRIBED!!!
From this conversation we can observe that He has a deep knowledge of fretboard and CAGED system. That way he can play and experiment the melodies, shapes chords, voicings and fills in different positions along the neck. And he combines all this theoretic and applied knowledge with tastefull sense.
Nahre, this is a very good content format for you (and any guest you'd have). It is fascinating to see how people so talented on a particular instrument explain their process of music around the unique capabilities / limitations of their instrument to someone else on a different instrument. It allows people to see more layers of subtlety in not only the writing of music but the performance as well.
Thank you for your thoughtful and fun interview!
Incredibly beautiful. Cant wait to check out the collaboration
Great content. Thanks Nahre!!
Great interview!
YEEESSSS
I've love that you 2 did this collab! I've been watching both your channels for a long time and love them both!
Loved this Nahre!
huge! thanks nahre

Crazy work on the editing Nahre. The way you interpreted the chords he played is as if you were a master at guitar yourself.
Excellent interview.
This is pure gold!
2 of my favs what a blessing
It was a pleasure to hear the playing, the theory, and the words of wisdom in this video. Thank you both for taking the time to make this!

Another vote for you learning guitar! I am intrigued to see what learning a new instrument looks like for someone who is already so advanced and fluent on another. Greatly enjoyed this interview! Would enjoy more collabs in the future as well :)
Que vídeo incrível ✨
Absolutely mesmerizing! Thanks to you and Mateus for a wonderful interview.
great interview! learned a lot! 🔥❤️
Such a great video! Thank you, Nahre, for you channel.
I love this , two masters hanging out
I'm pretty sure the world needs an entire album of you two doing cover/mashup songs. And since both of you are good at creating _tasteful_ arrangements, the world tour would be in a 'dinner concert' format.. tasteful music with tasty food 😉
This is very insightful! Love you both❤
That was one of the best and most well done interviews I've seen with him. So helpful to help understand his genius, thanks to both of you!
Top top top quality stuff!
Great interview. Last “ blessing assurance” is the best I heard 😮
