I understand that people have their own opinions of likes and dislikes but I cannot understand how seven people can dislike this? Outstanding and beautiful!

[@markbruner2679]

@youcandoit I'm sure....but I just simply appreciate great music

[@drjojo5551]

Obviously, there are 9 morons in our little group!

[@kullanici12111]

I agree this is a treasure

[@fabiansarber]

Just for ignorance

[@sparklerbc9898]

Possible reasons-
1- it is one of the most commonly played works on classical guitar and one could consider it played out and cliche
2- it is originally written for piano, this fact creates multiple possible reasons for not liking it which I won’t elaborate on for the sake of brevity
3- related to both of the above, it has been interpreted a million different ways by a million different performers on multiple different instruments. Not liking this version of it, in comparison to others, is entirely reasonable.

[@brucegelman5582]

The greatest...his clarity balance and sensuality is unrivaled.There are better guitarist at one aspect but none who combine everything like Barrueco.

[@gabrielleashley2282]

this is the one that feeds my soul

[@manitheman0806]

I can listen to him play all day

[@ericdavis681]

A true master. The people nitpicking over what they think 'musicality' is are people who will never attain this level. I never will, and I've been trying for years. Practice room guitar critics are the worst!

[@herculesrockefeller8969]

Putz.

[@carlodotti9210]

la piu bella esecuzione di quelle sentite finora tempo sentimento tecnica siìoppraffina bravissimo

[@NotoriousFunk]

Just my opinion but this is by far the best rendition of Asturias

[@mikekenney8362]

Perhaps my favorite piece. Performed with craft and empathy

[@karlalara1456]

Una persona especial me recomendó esta canción. Definitivamente vale la pena escucharla, sentir.

Barrueco en su apogeo.
¡¡Gran Maestro!!

[@markbruner2679]

Outstanding!

[@singenix]

Absolut genial! Dankeschön

[@bejar6598]

Albeniz simplemente maravilloso.!,

[@eleftheriakotzia4851]

marvellous

[@Hmnmn]

There are many great guitarists but I haven't heard any greater than Manuel Barrueco.

[@Michajeru]

I agree with you.

[@stretch-fd4dg]

What about Jose Feliciano I think that he is as good as Manuel Barrueco

[@heremansmarc]

Paco de Lucia

[@eprovidentjr]

i got to spend a week with him in high school while he recorded Tango Sensations, I was doing an internship with the Recording Engineer. Him and his wife were some of the friendliest people I've met. As good as a person as he is a guitarist.

[@kerimcabbar7159]

You dont listen to classical guitar that much it seems

[@jameswalker4704]

Love his tone.

Bonne musique !

Awsome fucking awsome

[@qwertylife1158]

👀👍👍👍👏👏👏

[@yabiru6452]

Llevo viendo muchas versiones de esta pieza y en casi todas van muy muy rápido. En mi humilde opinión gana más un poco más lento metiendo vibrato y de menos a más. Pero es cuestión de gusto.
Gran guitarrista.

[@radioheadfree7051]

can anybody tell me why does some parts are very similar to Rodroguez's Guitar Concerto?

Not perfect but the best I've ever heard

[@predragrojnic9717]

Ana Vidović ..

[@rahulanand7643]

Pls clarify one thing
Is he using the ring finger in picking cuz I can't f 🥲

[@learnenglishwitharmin]

why at such a high tempo? it shows the mastery but lessens the beauty

[@paulaclayton]

He's wonderful. Seen him three times......but in my opinion, he doesn't quite have the musicality of John Williams.

[@henryedelman7729]

robot untalented

[@battlestarclassica]

Interesting. I have the exact opposite opinion. I find Barrueco more genuine than Williams.

[@NoferTrunions]

WIlliams is too much the virtuoso. You must make love to this piece with tenderness.

[@vanguard4065]

Paula Clayton williams is no barrueco

[@nylonsteel]

maybe he confused technique with emotion and phrasing?

[@piedic.4493]

brano meraviglioso!

[@Wolferal]

Too many notes.

[@fennelleastman8816]

disappointing

[@tomy8339]

Lol, critical much? I can play the riff of 'Smoke on the Water' so I'm in position to judge. 😂
