As a metalhead, a guitar player, and a classical music lover, this sonata gets me every single time. It's said that Beethoven wrote it after the woman he loved married another man. This isn't merely the musical product of sadness, it's a man grieving the death of his own heart. His heart was the departed, his chest was the casket, and Beethoven was the pallbearer. This is acoustic mourning. This rendition is perfection.
@@user00404 Nah, to you and me, yeah.. but they were a bit different back then. Beethoven was born in 1770, it was not uncommon back then for women to bring their children for a picnic, on the sidelines of battles near their homes. Some of which their husbands were fighting in. They saw death all the time, whether it was caused by violence, injury, exposure, starvation, or illness. They became mostly numb to death.
@@sasssquatch1467 What!? This is a ignorant comment. Talk to war veterans who were in actual combat, and they will NOT agree with your comment about feeling numb to death.
This man was my teacher. You will never find someone more passionate about guitar or more dedicated to their craft than Eric Henderson. I learned so much from him and will forever hold music and the guitar in a new light because of his lessons.
I don't think they have invented a word to describe how good this guy is. This performance is without a doubt a masterpiece. Thank you so much. Beethoven would be proud.
@@leecoops2002 Sure. The word is accurate. But I think it's more than that. Classical music has to be interpreted. It was performed expertly but it was also performed with, fire. That's the word I use to mean passion or feeling. The notes are half of the equation. Btw, I'm not like, educating you or anything. I'm just making conversation. You probably know all that already. I just wanted to compliment his fire.
lying on my bed after a grueling day of work, sun going down, dogs barking out in the alleys and this comes wafting in through the open window. beautiful. thank you Eric.
God damn... This man plays with every fibre of his being... He's just oozing passion. Every deliberate strike of the string, every note precisely annunciated to exactly how he wants it conveyed.
Most moving interpretation i have heard. Instant tears. Incredible. I can't believe all this sensitivity going on when you know that this piece is a real torture to play on guitar. The sound is magic too. The slowdowns in the arpeggios bring life, movement and sensitivity. Thanks for this amazing work !
I agree. Usually, the variations in speed (so common among classical guitarists) give me the creeps -- but this flows like a creek through the meadows. Great!
I'm not a musician myself, 'm only a common person born in Portugal in 1984. I've always enjoyed classical music, Beethoven and Mozart are amongst my favourites, but this performance just go over the top of anything. I cannot explain it but there is something so intimate and special about the guitar being played - the piano cannot quite capture it. This performance is like all that my soul has ever resonated with in my live in different minute little sounds the guitar brings to the feeling of the music... I hope people from around the world listen to this and be touched
Cinetyk, you say you are not a musician, "only a common person"....but I know from what you say you heard in this piece that you have a musicians heart, my friend. I've been playing guitar since 1969 and I could play another hundred years and never even come close to Eric's work on this piece---but Cinetyk, that doesn't matter. Being a musician isn't a destination, it's a journey. Find an instrument, any instrument, and start on your heart's journey. Katie, a friend in Colorado USA
This is at the top of my list of favorite compositions for piano and hearing and seeing this maestro perform it on guitar is one of the most beautiful things I think I've ever heard...
I listen to this specific video pretty much every day at work when i am on the road and i cant get enough of it. The sound and technique is absolutely impressive and blissfull. It helps out alot keeping your cool in a traffic jam.
That's a beautiful guitar. This is the first time I have seen Eric Henderson play, but I gotta say, the passion he plays with is incredible.. Truly amazing performance
I really enjoy hearing these classical compositions played on the guitar. This sounded like a piano in the first few seconds before showing Mr. Henderson playing the guitar. Thank you, and Happy New Year, 2024!
This Maestro is incredibly talented. It is hard to believe that guitar can be brought up to such a level of poetry. This piece has not been conceived to be played on guitar at all and the technical issues have been solved flawlessly by this genius of music. Thank you Maestro!
It does not get any better than that Mr. Henderson! The Barrios influence is clearly there. Just pure magic!! I never thought I'd hear that on a 6 string classical instrument. The rest of my emotions and reverence just can't be put into words. This video is a gift in every way.
This man has been a great source of inspiration for me to learn THIS piece of music and I now play it every day. It's been my favorite piece of music since I heard him play it.
that was just gorgeous Eric...I appreciate your gift more than you can possibly know. My father who is now long dead and gone was an aspiring classical guitarist and worshiped the ground Andre Segovia walked on and as his son I gained a great appreciation for both the difficulty of playing the instrument both thru my own struggles and observing my father's struggles with it. Your performance reminded so much of my one experience of seeing Segovia play in New York City as a young teenager ever changed after that day by the experience. I am ever grateful to my father and Segovia for that experience and its impact on my life. And subsequently to you as well for your masterful presentation of this hauntingly beautiful peace of music. I am sure Ludwig is smiling at you.
Listening to Beethoven is very welcome in these troubled times we are going through. Many thanks for this gentleman for playing Moonlight Sonata so perfectly. Stockholm - Sweden.
I just discovered this performance, and it is absolutely perfect. Haunting melodies, passionate. It blows my mind to think that this piece was written hundreds of years ago.
Beautifully and lovingly played! I started learning this piece 45 yrs ago but never finished but watching this video has inspired me to work on it again. Amazing work of art! Bravo!
The dexterity and stamina necessary to perform this is mind blowing in itself … Now do it perfectly without any mistakes or muffled notes - this is truly perfection.
I wonder how many hours were put invested in learning every note perfectly played? Wow. Music that was written hundreds of years ago still touches the heart.
He is gifted and talent. For normal people no matter how many hours they have spent on practicing this piece they still make mistakes and not as good as him.
@@paulc3960 I hate that sentiment because to me it sounds both like an excuse not to try and like he hadn't had to work for it. Yes, he might be talented or even gifted, but he wouldn't be able to perform at that level if he hadn't put effort and countless hours into his craft. And if he had never started to put the work in, he would have never realised his potential.
I love the subconcious body language, mixed with a bit of; you can tell he's trying to so the infamous symphony justice, and he pulls it off, simply beautiful, as a guitar player myself
And what's funny is I searched for this half expecting it to not yield results, as I figured this song was straight made for piano, but this is just as good if not better.
I love Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata". This is the first time I have heard it played on a guitar. Actually not played, but "caressed". Very moving and beautifully done. Thank you Sir for this "gift".
Magnificent! And how cool that you would bring Beethoven to the heavy metal audience. Because, when you play it THAT way, It reinforces the idea of what many of us already knew - Beethoven ROCKS!
What a brilliant play. Doesn’t over embellish but let’s the notes talk and adds those little intricacies that bring out the depth of the piece. Amazing!
@@muz977ify I'll just repeat what I wrote as my comment on this... He makes this guitar speak with Ludwig's accent. Most play Moonlight Sonata as if it were written by Chopin or Schumann. He has the softness, grace, and flow, sure, but the pronouncement of some of the notes of emotional rise have the barely sleeping volcano that Beethoven had in the core of his being. The power of this piece as it was played by this man... I truly believe, he captured the very essence of Ludwig Von Beethoven, not just the notes.
The music is brilliang... Ludwig Van Beethoven... LFG... What got me here was his facial expressions... You can really feel his passion... I literally brought tears to my eyes. Bravo!!!
@@MrAtomicPig A couple of my teachers have said it takes 10,000 hours of practice to become proficient in playing an instrument, double that to master it. So if you practice 50 hours/week, it'll take you 4 years to become truly good at playing guitar, 8 years to fully master it, but you can never max out on practice.
@@steverichardson8080 Ok this is more of a pet peeve but I HATE, the "it takes x years to be truly good at this". First of all "truly good" is VERY vague and subjective, and secondly time spent varies quite drastically. But the idea of a guitarist being "truly good" is just, ughhh it really irritates me. More so on the universal concept of a level of expertise. If you have a guitarist that's solid technically, and plays with the same generic rubato as 99% of other guitarists under the sun, are they truly good? Probably by classical standards. But what about someone who's maybe a little less solid but actually is unique and brings something new to the table? Or hell even if they were just as good, would they be considered "truly good" in the strict definitions and standards that are used in the classical community? Sorry I know my tirade has barely anything to do with your comment, I'm just annoyed by classifying musicians into skill brackets. Like music is just a technical exercise like snooker or something. Well I guess in classical technique is 99% of what matters, so idk, in every other genre of music, creativity and expression are valued a lot more highly.
Songs are sung; this is a composition. If there were more instruments it would be an arrangement. But if you wanted to make it simple, you could call it an instrumental, I guess.
Oh my goshhh about 1:25 you really see how he plays feeling the music flow from his heart through his entire body to be channeled through the guitar. He is no longer playing, as he is EXPRESSING the guitar~. Very very amazing.

Eric really does this work justice by bring out the voicings in a powerful but sensitive manner. Very impressive work and transcription. I wouldn't have thought this piece would work well on a guitar but Eric's performance was enlightening and transcendent.
How do you even argue that, that's like saying "arguably carrots are the greatest vegetable". Like all of them are different and unique in their own way. But yeah this piece is absolutely stunning, there's a reason why it's one of the most famous classical compositions.
Your guitar’s timber and your excellent performance of the Moonlight was oh so beautiful. Thank you, thank you, thank you. It is such a listening piece.

Do yourself a favor and learn to play it again!
I don't think people genuinely understand how much practice went into this performance.
God I love watching people feel the music they're playing. Your brain just takes a back seat in those moments

Fantastico.no hay palabras para describir lo gradioso del tema y la ejecucion del guitarrista.
When you do MAGIC with a beautiful piece of music and a "simple" instrument in a true masterˋs hands....
What I love most next to the lovely playing of classical guitarists is their grimacing.
I believe every musician on any instrument has this face, some just hide it more. It's the whole body that plays the music. 😄
When I just saw the tile with his expression I had to watch. I agree with laced hexes that ever musician expresses themselves distinctly.
When you play I can see right into your Heart.. You are the kind of person I would like to know.
Beautifully played!
Wonderful so much emotion reverberating through me, its heavenly.
Stunning... beautiful... That released so many good neurochemicals into my brain that I am in a state of calm elation...absolutely magnificent...
In case you are unaware this man has a tutorial series on youtube for free on how to play this piece it was very cool

How do you even argue that, that's like saying "arguably carrots are the greatest vegetable". Like all of them are different and unique in their own way. But yeah this piece is absolutely stunning, there's a reason why it's one of the most famous classical compositions.
