"Hey can you play the guitar"
"Eh, a little"

I have 24 hours a day , I can't play guitar althought I practice over 25 years!
I give up when I know this guy exist!
you mean...
"Eh, a rittle"
I'll show myself out...
Holy crap did you hear that? That's the sound of me quitting the guitar.
mike alexander no man, he is asian it’s legit
@@dangdanhnguyen2207 r/woosh
I'm B-sian so I'm quitting too lol
Just practice 40 hours a day and you too can sound like ling ling
Lol
3:00 does anyone realize how hard this part is?? He is going through so many chord shapes, very quickly, going up and down the neck, and nailing every note with precision. Absolutely insane
I was making stupid noises of awe at this part, like what the hell. I don't play guitar but it seems like the most impressive part of the song.
I play guitar and the hardest part is definitely the beginning and the parte that goes after the one you mentioned, atleast for me it is
@@menteejemplar2591 I do as well and that part is definitely hard as well, but I just felt like the part at 3:00 would get shadowed even though it's super technical
IS SO HARD PLAY 2 O 3 NOTES AT THE SAME TIME WITH THIS TEMPO
it's really crazy. if I saw it without the audio I would think the video was sped up.
Imagine being this channel and reading your comments filled with some guy called Ling Ling
Edit: I can tell this video hit the algorithm again from all the replies to this
Vall StrongHammer thats what I was just thinking lmao
Dont disrespect ling ling. She practices the violin 40 hours every day
Ling ling is not a guy he/she lives inside us and u need to wake him/her up
Check out twosets
And subscribe
I found him guys. The guitar Ling ling
Actual Ling Ling can do it while hula hooping
If you can play it slowly
@@oof5776 you can play it quickly 哈哈哈！
@林文雨 lang lang?
Those who didnt subs to twoset violin will never get the joke hahhahajaa
I swear... the accuracy and precision. I can already feel the hours of practice.
If you practice for 40 hours a day, I think you will play this perfectly.
You mean decades.
40 hours a day, 12 days perweek
this is thousand of practice houre btw
This is harder than playing pop music

He is literally doing pizzicato all the way
Take that PAGANINI
Paganini is angry, he wants left hand pizzicato
Pizzicato means something different on guitar. It means muted, like by putting the palm on the strings near the bridge. Like he's doing in the part that would normally be pizz on the violin.
@@wolfgangenochhsu2273 that's not too bad on a guitar. Just pull off
It’s not pizzicato he’s switching between apoyando (rest stroke) and tirando (free stroke)
Omnirapter007 Not sure if you were replying to me but he's doing pizz at 3:17 at the part where the violin has the left hand pizz
One day I'll play it too. Just give me 120 years.
Lol
You just gotta practice 40 hours a day and you'll make it just like ling ling has
One day man. One day.
eeeemmmmm I’ll need more
Just 25 hours/day in a week practice, you can as perfect as ling ling
*Stares at my little baby hands and my guitar as I cry silently in a corner*
*weeps in guitar*
Hand size doesn’t matter.
All it takes is practice and hardwork!
I laughed
Hand size doesn't really matter, Michael Romeo has really small hands but is one of the best neoclassical guitarists
When this guy walks into Guitar Center, everybody sighs.
I like this because unlike all the other performances that are too fast and blurry, you take it slower and completely shred the clearness and it sound so much better than all the others.
THIS IS SLOW TEMPO?!?!??!
slower?? This guy plays it at like 2x speed lmao
@@fv8399 you should learn the difference between slow tempo and someone playing slower than most others.
@@uroboric you too
@@bakuto.1055 no
I'm waiting for the spicato and left hand pizzicato

@R1DE SHARMA Sure is I think
3:15
You mean right hand pizzicato
4:00
You can see the D string (third from the top) wiggle around when he does that arpegio.
Filip Chetwynd did it sync up with the camera's fps perfectly or something? What is this black magic? There no way it actually looked like that in person, I'm telling you now.
@@rjrjrjrjrjrjrj It's just because of the way cameras capture video.
@@sicp nope. definitely black magic
I'm pretty sure the strings are made of spaghetti. That's his secret. IT MUST BE!
Oh wow! I caught it. That was cool!
3:59 look at the D string guys magiccc
4:00 add 1 second to make it perfect
69 likes not gonna like it
3:16
**Brett’s fingers has left the chat**
**sad brett noises**
How tf he hit the harmonics while hitting 3 strings at once wow I'm jealous
Place the finger near the fret line to create a muting effect or harmonic
Timur Khilyamov now he can do it
Bass with thumb, harmonic with i+m and a third note with the "a" finger. It's a stupidly difficult technique
He only hits two strings at once. Its a bass note and a harmonic. Three fingers though.
@@agustinmiranda869 lmfao!! U rock bro
Somebody's been doing his Ling Ling workouts.
and been practicing 40 hours a day
@@carolineteang you need to watch Twoset Violin's video
@@carolineteang search ling ling in yt, basically an insane violin player that practices *40 hours a day*
And I N T R E S T I NG
Two set violin
Any Paganini video: twosetters chilling in the comments
Literally any classical piece
I am a twosetter too
Well you got to realize the because of Twosetviolin people got to experience classical music! He made the younger generation learn to love classical music! So keep the Ling Ling comments going as least they listen to such beautiful music!
@@MaselaK257 but you forget spanish guitar (not flamenco) and bach, aguado,sor,carcassi
epic. well done mr lee.
his ability to change chords so seamlessly and effortlessly at the speed required to pull this off on a guitar is simply immense.
Ridiculous that humans can play like this without mistakes, amazing
Practice makes perfect, buddy. Homeboy probably spent the better part of a year learning and rehearsing that to become that flawless at it.
Remember, slow is smooth, smooth is fast.
You have to send me a link to where its done with perfect tempo so I can compare!
I did as a kid, but gave up after grade 1 piano, the translation time became to frustrating. Everything by ear since then. I understand what you are suggesting. I doubt somebody this technical, who has probably practiced this piece for years, would avoid being 100% perfect on tempo as well and escape with an "interpretation" avoidance plan
You should listen to the Martians, they are incredible ...
practice,practice,practice. lol...
I'm so happy that the Twoset fandom is already here😂
To lingling!
We are everywhere xDD
Im a fan of twoset who is a classical guitarist and I have been wanting them to react to this video for years. So glad to see fellow ling ling wannabes here finally!
yup
Why? It gets old...
I've seen many versions of this done on many instruments . Yo Yo Ma ect. I could go into how inspired and flawless this performance was or how this is a violin peice which makes it hard to cover or how great the tone is a million different ways but right now I'm just like "dude, that was so metal!"
me : *look at my guitar*
my guitar : "don't even think about it"
If you can play it slow
You can play it fast
But can he make a B into a B flat tho
@@muramasa_1 ITS B FLAT TO B NATURAL UNCULTURED FRICK
HMM? Twoset?
that escalated quickly...
@@filipchetwynd7746HMM violin?
It’s funny how there are guys who inspire you to pick up a guitar and then there are guys like this one here who inspire you to put down your guitar.
Im still tryna figure out if ur comment slightly relates to ur name
Underrated comment.
It's all in the mindset. You can either be envious, and give up. Or you can be inspired to learn from them, and work to improve your technique.
That's right
@@swagmiredoesall r/woooooooosh
Best performance I’ve ever watched on Paganini’s work.
I've heard this played many ways, but this one has been most emotive. Not to take away from the speedsters and their own perfection. This is the fun one.
I don't understand people with such a critical actitude... This interpretation is full of emotion and that makes it good enough to enjoy 100% of it. Stop searching mistakes 24/7 and learn how to enjoy the music. Simply that.
Pelusilla 11 Why the need to comment on other people? Why not the video? Bored?
@@Mikishots well that's literally what you're doing yourself
some people enjoy finding mistakes, especially in difficult pieces.
there's a mistake?
@@marckypieo_o5986 I heard a string buzz about halfway through.
Him: playing Paganini Caprice no.24 on guitar perfectly
Me: I can barely tell which finger to pick and which key to hold
You must be very confused indeed if you think guitars have keys.
@@thenaughtychristmaself5261
I think he meant key signature?
Such an incredible display of dexterity and dynamics.
This was a remarkably masterful performance.👏
The Maestro of all maestros.... this is as close to perfect as I've ever seen or heard. Beautifully done, young man! Thank you and a deeply heartfelt Bravo! 💗👏💗👏💗👏💗👏💗
ling ling can play this on violin and guitar at the same time
Ling ling can play it on drums
Ling ling was a little girl
Afraid of the big wide d*ck
👍
Ling ling can play 20 Paganini caprices at once using a single finger or toe for each one all using different instruments including: piano, guitar, violin, cello, triangle, harmonica, kazoo, bass, computer programmed drums, sandwich, Danny Dovitos underboob, ect
Just in hospital guys recovering. My fingers instantly broke after watching this video.
😂😂😂
Unbelievable speed, accuracy and clear notes! Great performance 👏
If you feel like a bad person
Remember those 546 people who press the dislike button
how can someone dislike this? like wtf
Yes but they were tone deaf Orcs from Mordor with no thumbs or musical appreciation!
547, bitch
For real.
There’s not much leeway in Way Lee’s playing.
Get out
I giggled
Why
how do you people come up with this stuff lmfao
This is the result of 40 hours a day
That's quantum mechanics incarnated in a guitarist. He must be at several spots all the time. Unbelievable!
Haha! You're right!
Schrodinger's guitar strings
So, when playing, he can not be real

Thoroughly soothing.
Thank you Way Lee
Each section's phrasing is so fantastic, provides so much contrast and so elegantly displays his entire repertoire of control. Guitar Ling Ling for sure!

This is what you could be...
_If you practiced _*_FOURTY HOURS_*_ a day_

Sorry couldn’t resist
Um, no
Because geniuses are born, not created
Im gonna regret this but
It’s forty
Zayan Watchel you mean almost 2 days
Go to twoset then you will know what ot means
Many technical hurdles in this piece. Masterfully executed. Really starting to love this composition.
Wow! I think that Mr. nicolo Paganini, never imagine what a guitar could do, besides the virtuosity of such a great player that you my friend. Honestly, I take off my hat to honor the knowledge that you possess of this beautiful instrument: my beloved guitar. I will die playing some tunes, but as for Mr Paganini, I wil confront him in the edge of the universe.👏👏👏👏
But Paganini was a great guitar player too...
Wow. Just when I thought I've seen enough fantastic classical guitar players on youtube... here you are proving that there are some who can actually surpass fantastic... stepping into god tier.
God Tier? You stupid son of a bitch. Why would you insult him? He clearly exists.
Perfect. My favourite guitar arrangement yet. Beautiful phrasing, tune, instrument. Perfect.
Listened to this again today. Just incredible.
Absolutely gorgeous playing
Sounds amazing, really
piece of a lifetime played with such ease, style, and focus. so incredibly good and inspiring. Tone and volume too! thank you!
That was awe inspiring! Thank you so much for taking the time and the dedication that it took to master this selection.
Precioso! me encanta. Felicidades!
His fingers move like a spider spinning a web around its meal like it's gonna get away.
This is my favorite transcription of Caprice No. 24 for classical guitar. Awesome execution by Way Lee.
You could say it was Way Lee good 😜
is there any special name for this transciption?
This is absolutely awesome !
Seemed like I was in heaven for 5 minutes !
Truly beautiful. Amazing and moving.
Truly God blessed
I nearly died as I was watching this video, in amazement and awe I forgot to breathe. This is another level.
0:52 damn, those Harmonics tho!
This part sounds like an evil boss from a zelda game
The techniques displayed here are phenomenal. Mindboggling.
Increíble interpretación, extremadamente, absurdamente, brutalmente precisa pero llena de emoción también. Creo que un guitarrista promedio tal vez (solo tal vez) podría sacar la pieza completa si se lo propone, pero llegar a este nivel impecable, solo con muchas y muchas y muchas horas diarias y varios años de práctica. ¡Bravo Mr. Lee!
If you can play it on *guitar* 🎸
You can play it on *violin* 🎻
@Rafael Perlingeiro Bastos It's a joke about "if you can play it slow you can play it fast." It killed me too though.
Edit. Fixed a blunder. I reversed slow and fast accidentally.
I can do neither bro
The emojis ruin it
how do i play it on a drum
And if you can play it on both, you play it with the guitar on you shoulder with a broom as a bow
is this ging ging (guitar ling ling)
That would almost be funny...but that horse has been kicked so many times now it is sickening. Fuck the Meme Cult.

The best version on guitar i've ever heard. This was perfect
Wow, the technical skill is amazing!! Even though the piece is faster than I care for, this wizardry is undeniable. You are top-notch Mr.Lee.
It is widely considered one of the most difficult pieces ever written for the solo violin.--- ---> Wikipedia

Perfection. Awesome tune!!
Excelente performance desta bela peça de Paganini na versão para guitarra.
The amount of talent some people have is truly amazing. Bravo!
Tacomaholic Talent doesn‘t get you far... Im sure this took many many hours of hard work!
I would be insulted if I had practiced for hours on end to be able to play this and then somebody just blames it on talent. I'm sure talent counts for something, but I would still say that it accounts for only ten percent at best in a performance like this one.
è de arrepiar os cabelos do suvaco! bravooooooo!
This is the Way, Lee... Amazing performance!
This is so incredibly impressive... absolutely mastery of the instrument...
Unbelievable PERFECT ! Clear sound and extremely good intonation ....(Pacanini is already very chalenging on the violin)...playing Pacanini on the guitar is 100x more difficult....
Bravo !!
*intonation on the guitar*
me: what are you talking about? they have frets... you can't be out of tune unless it's an actual wrong note
@@thetecmachine2012 Using the wrong amount of pressure when you fret can push your notes sharp.
@@thetecmachine2012 You have to play on right place on the fretboard : when you place your finger on a "case" (french word) you are between two frets, if your finger is too high (or away from the rosette) the string will vibrate on the fret and sound really bad it will curl (="friser" in french). The placement of your fingers impacts the sound, so basically your aren't out of tune but you sound awful. Plus, there are 3 ways to do a vibrato you can either move the neck of the guitar which is a bad idea, move the string with your finger horizontally (along the neck) which is what he does in the video, and you can move your string with your finger vertically which makes the string fastly sound sharp. The hardest technique in those three is the 2nd one, the one he uses in this video so again "ha can't be out of tune" but he uses an hard technique to avoid using vibrato that makes the string sound sharp
@@thetecmachine2012 Sorry if my verbs aren't well conjugated, i'm french
@@thetecmachine2012 hope you'll see this message
Superb !! Bravo.
Most clear and precise play Ever
This is great music !!!! This is great performance !!!!
Bravo! Bravo! Clap, clap, clap

When the fingers have the ability to think for themselves, and dexterity carries the momentum of the melody, the Expressions expressed by the Supreme musical quality of Genius in action, renders us helpless in our relentless pursuit to enjoy the sounds permeated to perfection!!!😎
