@@formxshape Of course, been watching and listening for many years. He is currently hustling guitars for a Spanish maker of questionable character. But you are aware of that.
@@Ty-bz7zx Yes, he is very skilled, but musically really nothuing special. Julian is a different world of music. For me slightly comparable to Antoine Boyer.
@@jaroslavmencl9543 I get ya, Marcin is more my style, I am pretty basic and do not enjoy the fine intricacies of classical style, Self proclaimed musical heathen. =) Will try this again with an altered perspective sometime.
@@Ty-bz7zx Marcin is interesting but I don't think he really holds up if you can't watch him with his gimmicks and tricks. He's too flashy, he doesn't have even close to the sophistication of this guy. His voicings and harmonies are really something incredible, and has some serious chops that serve the music instead of being flashy. Marcin is really focusing on music built for tiktok and youtube shorts.
I just finished playing my new Alvarez Maccasar Ebony and Spruce Top and i had alot of fun in my living room with a big smile accompanying me until i put You tube on and listened to this Gentleman play for the first time. The rest of the night i shall continue to eat humble pie . However that was so amazing after the second Song i had to stop it and digest what i just saw and heard ! I shall have to watch some more tomorrow . WoW that truly was Amazing ! ThX !!🔥🎸🔥👏🙏🔯🙏
That's exactly the comment I was going to write! For both musicians, music comes first, then it goes through the instrument. Period. That is very different from the "finger music" that many guitarists of all styles are pouring.
YES...!! Hadn't thought of that, glad you did. He really very much is like him., especially how they both pull heavily from classical music, and all sorts of Americana beauty.
I was at this show and mesmerized by it. I have been lost in a trance everyday since trying to bring myself back to the live experience of witnessing the honestly and immediacy of Julian's musicality. I was overjoyed to find this video and realize there was a record of this experience. Thank you, Daniel, for making and sharing this recording!
If is having half as much fun playing as it looks like, he's got the best job in the world! Such a joy to watch and listen to him. Truly a musician with his own voice.
really hard to think it in terms of job, in this cases it's more of a lifelong commitment/mission, he breathes music since the moment he wakes up since a very very young age.
@@chitarragenova I define a job as something you get paid to do, regardless of whether you like doing it or it's something you do just to make ends meet. I know of people in totally different areas that probably are as dedicated to their crafts as Julian is to his. Professors and programmers are two examples. Would you also not define what they do as a job?
Feels wild to say this, but he's gotten noticeably better since I started listening in 2016! I hereby demand that this man live forever and be protected at all costs!!
No one has more fun playing guitar alone than Julian. My favorite moment is the intro to gardens where go goes “whoa” so something he just did. Surprised himself I guess!
This is ,at last, mature Pos-modern Art.One can not stop following the arguments of the music ,no matter how technically advanced,almost childish elaborated or stylysh -like .sequences .This is pure and simple communication of life through this solo instrument of centuries ago .Clearly it resumes 21st century expressed without paraphernalia by means of a man and an acoustic instrument
He and Carl Miner would be an absolute unstoppable duet, as well as beautiful, intriguing, unique and I could go on and on. He's a true master but would never admit it. Very special guy.....
So glad I discovered Julian about 5 yrs ago. He’s slowly but surly becoming a living legend. The man is great like a modern day Chopin of guitar! One of the very few musicians that captures my ear in anticipation like Chopin, Jimi, or EJ . He’s truly mesmerizing
I has been listening to Julian Lage for many years but still don’t catch what he was playing style. Until recently a few months ago, I found the beautiful of Julian Lage playing guitar. It huge for player who’s not only child prodigy but talent composer. I place Lage track on Top of my listening list and continue dig deep to his pieces. Thanks for sharing.
WOW!Dude is one of a kind, pure inspiration the way he musically connects to his soul, to the audience and ultimately to the utmost possibilities of the guitar! thanks 🙏🏼
I was at this show. I wish this video captured how perfect this venue was for Julian’s solo performance. I had a front row balcony seat, but I swear I was fifteen away from the stage. His commentary between songs was also lovely!
Many thanks for sharing this moment of pure magic, I doubt that i would have one day the chance to experience a concert of his in France but at least I could had a glance of what it is Live through your video !
So enjoyable to YT listening of Julian's solo improv! I've been listening since he was 8 or 9 years old here in the SF Northbay area. I'm almost embarrassed to say that I picked up Julian's guitar pick dropped while giving a beautiful performance on stage and I walked out of the wings and handed it to him, not realizing that he already reached for another in his pocket; though he politely smiled at me and took it. I knew right then that he'd become a consummate professional musician! Proud of your career path, Julian, and always enjoy another live performance from you🙏🏼🎶
Discovered Julian through this video the other night while on a little 'trip' and went right down the rabbit hole. I know this probably sounds like sacrilege to the jazz purists, but I'd love to see him play in a Grateful Dead style jam band (Dead and Co even?) - his improvisational leanings and sound seem like they would fit right in, though that ultimately might not be his scene/thing.
I love the structure of the tune he plays at 34:30. Play that chugging rock thing, then play whatever you can improvise for as short or long as you like as long as you go back to the chugging rock thing. Repeat as many times as you like.

Não tenho mais palavras. EXTRAORDINÁRIO. DE OUTRA GALÁXIA QUALQUER… Será Julian Lage o Keith Jarrett da Guitarra? Obrigado pela partilha.
Thank you for recording and uploading this. The way he plays 'I'll be seeing you' is so utterly beautiful. This is how I imagine people felt seeing Tarrega live in the 1890s or so.

He really isn't just an amazing player, he's his own unique contribution to what's possible with music and the guitar.
I’ve been hearing term “next level’ a lot lately. Julian is the level after that.
I was there and to say this was a spiritual experience would be an understatement! Still in awe..
Это самое лучшее из того, что уже есть.❤ Благослови Господи его и спаси 🙏 душу. Очень...Слава Богу!.
This is unreal. No one sounds like him. His feel and creativity are through the roof.
He’s along for the ride as much as we are just incredible
Broken the barrier between consciousness and instrument- like watching Bach or Coltrane play
@@Tuckermoore ....Or Lenny Breau.
There is no other guitarist on earth like Julian. His abilities are limitless. His humanity is ever present.
The courage and bravery it requires to play just one acoustic guitar in such auditorium...!
And a simple mahogany and spruce 00-18 style guitar I believe from Collings, played by one of the most creative guitarists alive. Truly an original.
@@jeffhildreth9244 Such a genius. 👌
@@jeffhildreth9244 000-18 (; And yes, his signature Collings.
Have you never heard of Yamandu Costa?
@@formxshape Of course, been watching and listening for many years.
He is currently hustling guitars for a Spanish maker of questionable character.
But you are aware of that.
One of the most unique guitarist ever, dude is elevating the instrument.
Look up Marcin =)
@@Ty-bz7zx Yes, he is very skilled, but musically really nothuing special. Julian is a different world of music. For me slightly comparable to Antoine Boyer.

Not just guitar. Elevating all of music, improvisation, and revealing human potential. I believe he’s that special.
No one can touch this guy! Such a breath of fresh air.
Listen to Sylvain LUC solo.
Antoine Boyer, Adrien Moignard, Sébastien Giniaux, Bireli ofcourse
I just finished playing my new Alvarez Maccasar Ebony and Spruce Top and i had alot of fun in my living room with a big smile accompanying me until i put You tube on and listened to this Gentleman play for the first time.

@@pputnam100😆
Was that meant to be a compliment?
Can’t find a higher compliment than comparing Julian with Jarrett.
Jessica Williams once said “the music plays me.”
That whole bit surrounding 39 minutes was off the wall, probably the best thing I've heard out of a single acoustic guitar.
honestly , I felt that way over and over again
Hes like a modern Mozart or Beethoven, I love it
Most important guitarist alive. Good lord Julian you are unreal and so emotional!

Stellar performance, I was utterly amazed by this display of musicality!
No one has more fun playing guitar alone than Julian. My favorite moment is the intro to gardens where go goes “whoa” so something he just did. Surprised himself I guess!
Love it! In general I don't really get his electric playing, but this is wonderful. So creative, Jarrett on Guitar. Cool.

superb talent

Such a musical surgeon. Every little thing is right on the money.
i love how he is one with the guitar, so inspiring ❤

Julian is not surly at all. He's very good natured. (Sorry, just making a lame joke about your typo.) 😀
Super maestro.
One of a kind - playing like a free man with no limitations......unearthly and so inspiring.
I like to watch him play because he so obviously loves what he`s doing

my jaw are literally on the floor!!!! sureal experience
Thank you for sharing this amazing performance! I'm really enjoying it from South Korea.
I was at this show. I wish this video captured how perfect this venue was for Julian’s solo performance. I had a front row balcony seat, but I swear I was fifteen away from the stage. His commentary between songs was also lovely!
Yea I definitely wish I had captured it all without stopping...it was amazing. Such a great venue for a show like this
I should have gone to this show. It was only an hour away
Fantastic musician.
Man he looks like he’s having so much fun as well, must be a blast to have the freedom of the instrument like this
Thank u for recording this video dude🙏🙏🙏
Bravo, I hear a John McLaughlin and Al Dimeola FUSION in his 'Guitar Playing' .... Keep on 'Improvising Maestro!!!...
THANK YOU!
2:06 he feels it through every fiber of his being… surreal
Thank you for showing us what is possible. There is so much here to get one's heart and mind around...Call this the "Speechless Concert"
Thank you for uploading.
Thanks Daniel what a fabulous performance. Julian Lage is the acoustic guitar's answer to Keith Jarrett
Thank you so much for posting this!!!
Beautiful
Very nice! Not often we hear "modern" tonalities, generally found in the classical guitar world, played like this.
Love it.
What a tremendous tremendous talent. Just a completely singular voice on the instrument
Many thanks for sharing this moment of pure magic, I doubt that i would have one day the chance to experience a concert of his in France but at least I could had a glance of what it is Live through your video !

What a treat. Thanks Julian.
Just awesome. Thanks for sharing the concert
Attended the concert in Cincinnati, OH on 07 September 2023 at Memorial Hall Anderson Theater. Very nice.
What a journey! Such a treat for this Saturday late night. Thanks 🙏
I would love to see a collaboration between Julian and Phil Keaggy.
Me too!
Sublime!
deixa-nos sempre em suspenso, fantástico!
It's impossible to make music better than this.
Great recording, I was lucky enough to see him on the 13th and the 16th 🎸
I attended this, great atmosphere and I think Julian was surprised by how well received he was.
I was there with my son, thanks for sharing
ไพเราะมากครับ
this is so incredible, thank you for posting.
Genio absoluto entre los genios
Amazing
Saw him in Portland, ME two days later -- completely nuts experience. What a singular player. There is no distance between him and the machine.
é muito giro assistir à construção e desconstrução que ele de uma forma desinibida e divertida assume em palco!
Kind of a beast then Jesus , he blended classical jazz with gypsy guitar elements and folk ninja
I really should be spending this time with my wife
Increíble 🔥🚀
I can't stop watching him playing
I saw him on this tour at a very small venue......first song brought tears to my eyes~~was just at a whole other level
Extraordinaire!!
Excellent ;7
😊 insanely good
Wow he sounds better than ever. Amazing.
Beautiful Travel.
What an incredibly musical dude
Such a talent.....so nice to see....fearless!

It amazing how Julian can improvise these songs on the spot. I can work all year on a song and end up nowhere. lol
This is so incredible!! :)))
We need the Worlds Fair follow up album and another album with Chris Eldridge sooner than later because I can listen to this all day
3:48: that part of the melody sounds a little bit like a quotation to Clair de lune, from Suite Bergamasque by C. Debussy
Ce gars-là est époustouflant de génie musical ! Mille Bravos
Top of the top
total technical mastery!
speechless
I love the structure of the tune he plays at 34:30. Play that chugging rock thing, then play whatever you can improvise for as short or long as you like as long as you go back to the chugging rock thing. Repeat as many times as you like.
