RUclips, the gift that keeps on giving even 10 years after this awesome performance. This great on all levels. So very much appreciated.
Dear Friends and guitar lovers. I have been holding off on commenting on the many dislikes because the reason for them is quite surreal. I investigated how could this be, that in 24 hours, at some point last year, I got tons of thumbs down.
It turns out that there was some kind of unexplainable glitch; It seems that 94% of the thumbs down came from………. you ready for this……. BANGLADESH….. I know, strange…..:) what have I ever done to them, I thought. So, as to be expected, Some people gave me a sincere thumbs down, that's fine, but not this massive amount from one country that is not knows for being a classical guitar metropolis. I have said nothing, because It always seemed undignified to respond to criticism in a public way. I figured I would "break" that rule since we do live a world of ever closer communication. Thank you all for your support and comments. Cheers.
Adam del Monte Felicidades Adam, magnífica interpretación!! Sobre la incomprensible cantidad de "dislikes" muy probablemente es obra de un solo individuo hostil y envidioso. Hay compañías que venden "paquetes de likes/dislikes". Quizás la base de la compañía sea Bangladesh. O quizás esta compañía utiliza tecnología VPN que simula la locación física de un equipo a cualquier otro país (y es muy común que Bangladesh funcione como una esas locaciones falsas). Saludos y gracias por tu magnífico arte, maestro!
+Diego Galárraga Sugoniaev Muchas gracias por tu apoyo, Diego. Creo que tengas razon. Ya varias personas me lo han dicho........ que mundo tan loco.......:)
Te mando un saludo, Adam
Really beautiful and evocative performance! I hope you can forget the dislikes - clearly they make no sense at all here.
Wow, fantastic interpretation. Great work Adam. Love Córdoba guitars as well!
Adam del Monte bangladesh is bangladesh no explanation..but i love your teachings and playing,
Still the best guitarist I've ever heard after 70 years.
I must have heard this piece a thousand times, so it is quite refreshing to hear this interpretation. Given Adam's background, he is tailor-made to breathe new life into these warhorses, to bring some fire back into the Spanish repertoire. As a teacher, Adam is one of the best in the business. Well done, Adam, you are an inspiration.
This is completely insanely good performance. It tears my soul apart, and now I have to spend some time to go and pick up the pieces....
Because most classical guitarists hate it when somebody plays a piece and actually respects the rhythmic intentions of the composer. It makes them look like they have no rhythm. Which most of them don't. Hit the dislike button all you want, but Adam is a genius player, that is an indisputable fact. His Albeniz interpretations are the best of all time imho.
how could anyone put no like to that piece , played beautifully and with passion
Adam, don't mind the dislikes. You are one of the best guitarists ever, and definitely the best guitar teacher I ever had. Every lesson with you is a thrill.
Toutes vos interprétations des compositions d'albeniz, sont des références. Le son, le phrasé, le respect de l'esprit des œuvres, tout y est sans emphase ou envolées de mauvais goût. Bravo et merci !
Remarkable not just for the wonderful playing, but superb videography.
The more I listen, the more beautiful it is…
Thank you!
This is my all-time favourite interpretation of Cordoba. Thank you Adam del Monte
A true master of the guitar, beautifully played.
Da questa bellissima esecuzione si può veramente capire quanto straordinarie siano le possibilità espressive della chitarra. Bravo!
tremendous version of Cordoba!!! Really captures the spirit of the piece....
Michael Thank you very much!
Wonderfully played.
Unbelievably good.
Emotional,clear,very nice sound...a real guitar master.It would be very interesting to listen those people's guitar playing who disliked this video.Ole Adam!
One of my favorite pieces by Albeniz and played so well. Muchas gracias.
Beautiful performance of an even more beautiful song by Albeñiz , thanks for sharing it.
I know this piece from the Together album with Williams and Bream...struggled with the separate parts for years and never quite got there and here's Mr del Monte playing it as a solo...wow!!! Thanks, brilliant performance.
Almost 1 out of 2 people disliked this? WTH? This is wonderful, Adam!
I agree Nick. Adam's rendition is perfectly played and accentuated in all the right spots - I prefer this to John Williams or Julian Bream. Bieber must have voted 188 times is all I can say.
What a wonderful performance of Cordoba, my favorite Albeniz piece. Love the rasqueados at 4:07!!!!
Maravilloso!!!!!
Thanks Moishele. This is a guitar by Francisco Manuel Diaz from Granada.
Beautiful clarity. Love it almost as much as the Bream
Fantastic. One could be fooled into thinking Albeniz wrote his music with you in mind. Your rendition of Sevilla reminds me of Alicia de Larocha’s live performance at Royal Albert Hall. The same subdued urgency.
Absolutely beautiful rendition-the best I've heard! Thank you.
one citizen spanish and cordobes from Santiago de Chile ....
tanks for your notes ..
ole ole y ole
muchas gracias
Dear Teacher, you don't know it but you have been teaching me the last three years, along with a few other select teachers on the internet. I started out with Oscar Herrero's first 2 dvds and then various other online teachers, but after 2 years hooked up with you, for several reasons the most important of which is "soulful" .
Hi Kara, thanks for your comments. I actually did experiment with the positions of the mic , and unfortunately the room wasn't much help, so I decided to get the mic closer so as to get more of the guitar sound. But good point.
YEP...again..thankyou Adam
wow! just incredible. Love LOVE your tone. Very beautiful. Pure magic on the guitar. Your touch makes every piece lively and romantic full of emotions with beautiful interpretation and effortless performance. Thank you so so much for sharing your art Adam.
Beautiful performance!
gorgeous interpretation
Magnifique ❤
This is excellent.
Sometimes the world seems insane with ignorance. This performance take music to a new level. Period.
all the dislikes are obviously some kind of silly joke. This is utterly beautiful classy inspirational guitar playing at its finest. What a player and master you are Adam. Don't be put off by the jealous trolls on here..you have a talent and a life..they need to get one
Wonderful!!
Une interprétation magique, un esprit flamenco flotte dans l'air rempli d'une musique sortie d'ailleurs. C'est magnifique.
Excellent!
Beautiful performance.
Spectacular playing! This might be my favorite recorded performance of this piece.
Absolutely breathtaking! Great performance.
Adam you are the best I've seen your concerto for flamenco guitar is noteworthy in musics history books.
Fantastic!!!!!
Beautiful
Adam incredible technique awesome dynamics, I love the way you perform the great Spanish Classcial compositions,truly some of the best versions I have heard ,not to mention your flawless Flamenco playing !!Maestro You are truly one of the best most underrated modern Guitarist out there!! Thanks for the wonderful music! ! Truly the people who disliked your performance are clueless to true art and real Guitar playing, Ole Maestro!!!
Such a hard piece, made it look so easy and sound so good, bravo.
Grandioso!!!
Magnifica interpretación!!! Adam es increible. Bravo
Preciosa interpretación de esta brillante partitura de Isaac Albéniz.
Very Well played.
Awesome and Amazing !!!!!
Brilliant.Very smooth and artistic.
has encontrado ese punto intermedio entre el sonido potente y brillante flamenco, y el sonido elegante y sutil clásico, perfecto para obras de esta índole, genial Adam !! eres motivación !!
Juan Guitar gracias por tus comentarios observación. Un saludo!
During this quarantine I'm nailing and polyshing this excellent piece of that romantic epoch... I've listened versions of Julian Bream , John Williams, Timo Korhonen, Rafael Aguirre and dozens of other guirarists (some of their versions sound like child estudios despite their talent)... Julian Bream and John Williams are legends and they sound well, also Rafael Aguirre plays very spicy but in your interpretation I could feel the spirit of that era. Thank you for soulful performance. Great work!
Beautiful !
This is just amazing... why does it have so many thumbs down?
beautiful
Adam - you are one of the most inspired and inspiring Guitarist on my list - i study Flamenco Guitar and your playing is filled with feeling, beyond technique [ although you are an amazing technician ] i know of very few Guitarist who can get so much out of playing even ONE chord ! Classical or Flamenco - OLE' Maestro !
Thank you kindly!
Really good performance. Perfect
I love classical guitar. The song that you performed execellent
Adam I started following you after your excellent Andalusian Cadence video.
You're a marvelous player and teacher.
What is the basic difference between classic and flamenco guitar?
Thanks in advance.
Be blessed
Dear Mr Del Monte,
is what you are doing from min. 4.32 any particular technique (i think there is something, for example, that some people call a "roll") or is it just very past finger picking? thank you for your (or anyone else´s) help.
Hi Hans, It's just a double arpeggio up and down on the chords which John Williams does a rasgueado.
Adam del Monte Yes, saw Williams doing it; prefer your way of playing it. Thank you for your help.
Beautiful.
Bless you for sharing your talents and hard work with the world. I love-I mean LOVE the Williams recording of this. I always share it with pianists and their usual remark is, "I need to learn guitar". This has now replaced it and is also one of my favorite recordings. Right up there with Hendrix "I Don't Live Today". (I think the dislikes might be traced to a "J. Williams" upon hearing your arpeggio version of what is normally rasqueados).
Thank you kindly!
Querido Adam excelente, no ver esos dislikes, ver los comentarios de guitarristas serios. Un saludo y gracias.
... como siempre... un gusto enorme escucharte!!
Magnificent!
Bravo! Superb performance! And if I ever drive through Bangladesh, I'll blast it full volume with my windows down! :-)
hahaha.....you're very kind..... I do believe it is a VPN re-rout by one nasty person through Bangladesh..... I don't believe that 300 Bangladeshis sat there and did this...hahaha
Thanks Dan. I actually recorded Cordoba on my classical Album "Ezordio" for the label GSP. I'm sure you can get it from them. It's Guitar Solo Publications in San Francisco.
sublime
Beautiful playing.ive taught for three decades this rocks. What guitar Tocar amigo*
Thank you. The guitar is by Francisco Manuel Diaz.
Dear Adam: what a great performance! High musicallity, beautiful tone, very lyrical. I'm sorry to the low number of views on your videos. Even worse, there seem to be many dislikes on every video of you. I just can't see a reason why .....
Прекрасно!
maestro, esta es la mejor interpretación de Cordoba que he escuchado le felicito. No sabia que hablaba Espanol.
Wow! a master
grande entre los mas grandes i love you musica is very good oleeee!!!
Essa é uma das músicas mais bonitas que eu já ouvi...
Muy bueno!
great! amazing!
Beautiful play, Adam!
Mucha suerte y gracias!
Excelent! Thank you!
Thanks you for share this with us! I will play this piece in October, your performance and others are my guides. Hugs from Argentina!
Why would someone dislike this video? I'd like to see their version of this piece.
Hola Adam, excelente interpretecion!!! Queria preguntarte que arreglo estas usando y donde puedo conseguirlo! Un saludo desde Argentina
Gracias Emilio. Estoy usando la de Williams pero con mis cositas personales. No están publicados, es algo que e hecho yo a mi aire. Gracias por tus compañeros. Un saludo desde Los Ángeles.
+Adam del Monte Me di cuenta! La parte en la que Williams hace rasgados vos haces arpegios dobles, muy bueno, de verdad! Saludos
Thats right i heard you like guitars frim there.Good taste. Like Manuel de la chica is that correct?
Yes. I love Granada guitars. I now play guitars by an Israeli Luthier called Erez Perelman. His guitars have a "Granaino" sound.
this is my first time leaving a comment on RUclips video. seriously, you're the best i've seen on youtube. keep going man. you're brilliant
... perfecto
Absolutely fantastic sound, is this a flamenco negra or purely classical guitar?
Francisco Manuel Diaz from Granada. Thank you.
¡ B R A V O ! I like it too much!
Phenomenal! I love the arpeggios in lieu of the standard rasgueados everyone does. Don't sweat the dislikes-just a bunch of trolls, bots, and mouth-breathers.
Wonderful playing.
Linda interpretação , parabéns, som maravilhoso.
this is excellent, just learning this piece at the moment - its harder than it sounds!
Me gustó mucho su interpretación . Saludos
Interesante arreglo y sensible interpretación. Bravo!
