I've been practicing guitar for 30 yrs now.. and what excites me is watching this man get into a zone that can only be achieved by years of experience and passion to his craft.. he feels every note and doesn't have to really look at the fretboard.. what a great guitarist. To all beginner's, this level of passion is the goal.. it's just true feeling the music.. very nice
Looking at him you think if I work hard enough, I will eventually be able to play to this level. Then you look at Jon Gomm - PassionFlower, Andy McKee - Rylynn or Mike Dawes - One (Metallica cover) and then just give up playing cause at that point its about true talent and a stead fast dedication second to none.
As impressive as his skills are, when he plays he is laying his soul out to hear. It takes him to the master level. Artists of all types understand what I am saying. It is truly inspiring and humbling to see and hear this gentleman perform. So much respect....
I am a fan of Eric Clapton for over 40 years now. I can not remember how many times i have heard this song being butchered. But this was sublime! Thank you!
This is the most elegant and expressive Classical guitar arrangement for this song I have heard. Kudos to you, I enjoyed this a lot! Great song choice too.
sorenmadsen.com I purchased the sheet music for Tears In Heaven, without a Paypal through my card, my question however, is how do I get the music? Is it in a PDF or is it shipped to the address provided?
All I can say is - bravo 👏 Wish RUclips would recommend such amazing talents more often. I'm a fan of anyone who enjoys and interprets music like you do.
I just discovered Mr. Madsen here on YT. In general, I don't favor arrangements of popular music on classical guitar. So many of them don't work or the underlying song doesn't have the content to make a beautiful arrangement. Mr. Madsen then takes some well written songs and makes beautiful arrangements of them that work on classical guitar. He plays them with impeccable technique and tone and uses those tools to make wonderful music. He also demonstrates that he "gets" the music by "dancing" while playing the classical guitar. It's fun to see a classical musician get into the music so much that he can't sit still. Well done. It's a beautiful song and beautifully played.
Well done my friend !!! I learned how to play stairway to Heaven from watching this man the classical way,, I am 63 and have played guitar since I was 6 years old, however it was rock n roll some blues and even some very hard rock, I truly regret that I had no one to introduce me to the classical guitar world when I was child so now it's all I want to play anymore.. It feels so meaningful and worth while.. May God bless everyone here
Been playing for 10 years....technically perfect!! Have never been able to finger pic like that! Amazing technique and attention to every individual note! You're amazing!
I could listen to this man every day. I think if we all did we wouldn't all be so pissed all of the time.. Thank you sir for your passion and dedication.
Clapton has to be on this comment list I haven’t looked yet but I’m honored to be on the same list as the Eric Clapton giving some credit to this guy. Great job
Sometimes it isn't about being a Star or falling in with the band and following their path...SOMETIMES...you just have to follow your own path...KUDOS to you Brother...sounds beautiful.
From his choice of songs and his sheer mastery of them, I knew he'd nail this one. It also seems pretty clear he's not doing it for want/need of money, and that just makes it all the more authentic.
I came across this gentleman and I love it! There is so much passion, skill, heart just the best sound never looks at his hands just flows from the soul. Just started teaching myself how to play acoustic and wish some day I can half as good.
Some of us have the ability to be truly great act something, unfortunately, not me , but then we have this great talented gentleman to show us how it's done!
This performance was utterly mesmerizing. One of the most artfully designed and eloquently performed pure guitar arrangements I've ever seen preformed live.
SO NEAT TO SEE AND HEAR THIS MAN PLAY AND HE MAKES IT SOUND SO SWEET AND MY QUESTION IS WHO COULD GIVE THIS MAN 140 THUMBS DOWN REALLY CANT SAY THE WORD TOO HARSH! NICE PERFORMANCE AND LOVE THE SONG
Usually I look/listen to the video before I add it to my favorites, but with Soren, I now add it straight away when I like the original song. Never disappoints!
I’m a new guitarist , and this is absolutely beautiful. Great hands you , perfect transitions between ur chords . Absolute loved this almost brought me to tears
The way that you play...It makes me want to pick up my guitar... You are a incredible player...I wish someday I will have a third of your talent...... Thank you for allowing us to enjoy the pleasures of your musical skill....
Maestro Soren, my ear and my heart thank you ! I've always wanted to find an artist with classical training who could play popular music with passion. The search is over.

well said
I agree 100%
Jim Maynard After reading your post I started to pay attention to more than just his hands.

I’m a 37 yr old logging truck driver from New Zealand and this made me cry well done sir and thank you
No shame in that brother
Hope you didn’t crash... keep on logging .... stay safe😂
foamysauce was played at a rugby mates funeral when I was young
Your occupation shouldn’t mean you have to stifle your feelings brother.

Finally someone who covers the song and it actually sounds like the song

If I am in America and wanted to purchase the sheet music, does it automatically convert the transaction into USD?

No problem. It's all done by PayPal.
Oh ok, awesome. I'll be purchasing it soon then. :)

To play it that perfect in front of a crowd is something special. I hope to reach this level of playing some day.
Thank you, Agustin.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written
Probably the most beautiful guitar playing I've ever heard.

Music in it’s purest form. Beauty without the pretentiousness of which genre is “worthy”. Bravo.
In tears listening to this. Your music has a way of getting into the heart.
Goodness!! I've been watching your renditions of rock songs and cannot get enough. Thank you for sharing your talent, passion and love of the guitar.
Me too, I am 62 and should be in bed! Started the day with a Zeppathon and find myself here--and can't get enough.
You sir are a master musician. I’ve been playing guitar for almost 20 years and I wish I had only a small amount of your talent. Absolutely incredible
And just like that...... my guitar is at the pawn shop! Soren is a maestro!
Clapton has to be on this comment list I haven’t looked yet but I’m honored to be on the same list as the Eric Clapton giving some credit to this guy. Great job
GTFOOH!! This is incredible. In my next life I’m gonna insist on guitar lessons as soon as I can talk. Beautiful
Bravo Maestro! Again and again, Bravo!
Absolutely beautiful, how this man plays guitar. Wowwww. Thank you for sharing your talent!!
This is one of the best rock music to play in church.
Sometimes it isn't about being a Star or falling in with the band and following their path...SOMETIMES...you just have to follow your own path...KUDOS to you Brother...sounds beautiful.

I came across this gentleman and I love it! There is so much passion, skill, heart just the best sound never looks at his hands just flows from the soul. Just started teaching myself how to play acoustic and wish some day I can half as good.
Crystal clear and full of soulful expression. Thank you Soren for your soothing guitar cover. Very enjoyable.
Fall in love with your music... Greetings from music lovers! And from Pakistan

This is the best of Eric Clapton, and of Soren Madsen. How could you not love this song, God help you .
Admirable este Señor. Maestro de la guitarra!!
