There can be NO doubt - Bela Fleck is the G.O.A.T! It’s one thing to hear it on a recording but simply awe-inspiring to see it live or on video! Thank you for posting this!
I think we have someone to supplant Earl Scruggs as the finest banjo player, ever. Sorry Earl, I grew up listening to you, but Béla's versatility makes him at least an order of magnitude better. And that's also better than anyone else I've ever heard. What a monstrous talent Béla is. richard -- Writing about music is like dancing about architecture. - Frank Zappa
That's right, and his aren't. When I said barely, I did not mean hardly, I meant with a lot of bare skin showing. It is an unfair norm, because a man just has to play well, but a woman has to play well and also look 20 forever. I am not saying women should be restricted from showing as much skin as they want, on stage or off, but, from my experience as a (female) professional musician for over 20 years, it is wiser for women musicians to perform dressed more or less like the men.
taniajosefa it's called it's summer, they are outside, it's hot. She's dressed how SHE wants to dress. She's comfortable. Why is that a problem for you?

This guy is a world class musician of the highest rank!! There is no genre where he isn't at home.
Except, by Bela’s own admission, clawhammer style…
This is the one that proves Bela's genius... If it were ever doubted.
A good musician is a good musician, no matter what the style. This is amazing. Old J.S. would have approved!

Johann Sebastian Fleck or Béla Bach... Two great musiciens!
P.S. Now please, the harpsichord solo from the first movement of the Fifth Brandenberg - that would be spectacular!
Cadenza, darling, cadenza. ;)
Absolutely!! Bach set the bar WAY up there with that piece.

Bela kicks. That is all.
bravissimo
god damn.
What piece is this? I'm trying to tab it out, but it would be easier if i could look at other examples of it. Ill send tabs to who ever tells me haha
Joseph Lombard Bach's violin partita no. 3
Lute suite no. 4
Prelude from BWV 1006.
I have tab for it. Contact me if you want it. Gary@garypuckettbanjo.com
Gary Puckett Can you send me a tab for this?
brilliant playing but how does he do this from memory?
because he is a gifted and brilliant musician, duh?
because he's a musical genius, far beyond our understanding
There's those that play almost anything by ear anyway and those who can't play a note without sheet music!
If you can imagine the whole piece in your head- notes, gestures, body language etc- you will have no problem doing it from memory.
@@annaanderson9527 duh? Why add that when it's a serious question? Makes you feel good? Of course you might be pre-teen.
@taniajosefa Her shoulders are exposed. oh no!
A harpsichord also plucks strings.
That's right, and his aren't.

Lol this is such a weird beef
Bach is turning in his grave at Thomaskirche.
I'm gonna go with NO, he's not.
more like jumping with joy
oh fuck off
Yes, so he can listen better.
No he's not !!! You need to listen to more music !
why do the girls (unlike the boys) often think they have to be barely dressed when they perform?
taniajosefa she's covered except for her shoulders. Why is that a problem?
Lol it’s only her shoulders
Wow ! Maybe Abigail Washburn was blown away by his talent and now Mother of his 2 children ! It#s called life !
