Wow, what phenomenal playing. Most amazing to me is the very individual interpretation which goes well past the normal limits for me of rubato, but succeeds because it fully illuminates the music and stays true to the original conception of rubato in that the time is not lost, it is just borrowed and returned so that the pulse remains.
Sublime version and the quality of the tone is superlative, so much purity and density , the intensity and personality of this version is unique and incomparable
I have learned to play the Cristopher Parkening transcription which I think most Virtuosos play in the world and I am hooked to his playing here posted on CZcams, so fluid and expressive is Christopher Parkening's recording as well.
Moving, musical, powerful, sensitive. She unlocks the potential of the guitar like few I've heard. And without the shrill, plastic sound of nails, but rather focused and precise fingertip tirando and apoyando. Tarrega, and Pujol, the earliest masters of the instrument, played this way as well. Inspiring and satisfying music.
@@58ameriken She's a fantastic player. In the Segovia tradition her playing is full of colour. If only more players today followed the same path! It's a bit misleading to say she plays without nails because strange as it may seem she needs the nails to be long enough to support the flesh. So, it's better to say she plays with very short nails. I too play with the shortest of nails, and I agree with her that in this way you can produce a great variety of tones, but it takes a long time to master. The problem I have found with flesh only, is that if you're in a concert the adrenalin flows and the hands can get sweaty! You can't play the guitar with sweaty fingertips! That's one of the reasons to have a bit of nail too. As she says in her interview: “When you play with flesh only, the flesh doesn’t bring a robust sound, that is why you need to have nails to support the flesh as long as the tip of the flesh, never over. For that reason we can dig into the string and boost the sound with power and good color. “This is playing without nails. Segovia taught me this nail’s-length technique. Then, I incorporated it to my tip shape to maximize the sound quality.” See her thumb nail at video 2:10, Chopin Valse 64, number 2.
She appears to be in a state of deeply concentrated listening. In my opinion this is something that sets her apart from many guitarists, who are busy looking at their fingers and less busy listening to the sounds. When you let yourself hear it, you will feel it.
It's not acting. I do the same when I am practicing at home in my study with nobody around. I do it to concentrate and really listen to the tone that I am producing. Also to try and feel the music and get into the groove so to speak. Not that I am anywhere near her level of playing.
So much passion in this wonderful guitar performance, thanks Virginia ⚘ greetings from EGYPT
This woman is an amazing player. Her tone production and her understanding of the music of the highest quality.

Eso sí que es tocar la guitarra con alma. Qué preciosidad de canción y de ejecución 🌺
She was one of Andres Segovia's last students.

Magnífica interpretación, y eso que acabo de escuchar la sublime versión de Narciso Yepes. BRAVA!!!!!

Virginia : Una grande artista!

Bravo!!!
Excellent
Thanks
Esta guitarrista clasica es de una dimension superior
Brava!
Kitaran upeata hallintaa, yksi hienoimmista tulkinnoista !
Stunning music. Musicians who get into the 'feel' of the music with the eyes closed and head stuff just make me laugh - a definite oscar!
+PurdyBear1 IT IS NOT AN ACT. IT IS CALLED FEELING THE MUSIC
It's the same reason people close their eyes when they kiss. I close my eyes just listening to this lady, she's amazing

I hear castanets & heels on a wooden floor
rumores de la caleta versión para guitarra de AUREO HERRERO
Jorge ponce meza no
In my opinion she plays with nails.
I agree, at least with her thumb taht we clearly can see...
Not only that, you can clearly hear her nails in the attack.
Tocar una Hauser sin uñas, es como manejar un ferrari a 20 km/h
A talented woman and a great guitar. Imagine how nice it would sound if she'd grow out her nails.
Perhaps her nails are naturally thin and weak.
It already sounds great and that because of no nails.
Many times the nails spoil the classical music. They make it very vibrant.
Nails are ideal for flamenco music.
@@Elpicotazo Exactly
No nails !
Less of the histrionics in the interpretation, play as the composer wrote it please !!!!!!!!
