this is the best way to play this piece. Best speed, best pace, very smooth. I am motivated to start guitar lessons after listening.
Thanks so much and all the best for learning the guitar, I’m sure you won’t regret it! 👍
@@WilliamJohnston Your response means so much to me and I am so appreciative of it. When I learn to play such a beautiful piece I will def. appreciate this video even more. Thank you William.
@@NAWABE78 how are the guitar lessons going?
try listening luciano renan’s version
I've been trying to play this songs without fails, spent all saturday and get 1 success try. I'm really impressed in someone playing in public, without fails! Amazing!!!
Thanks Pedro! Wouldn’t go as far as saying it was completely without fails, but very kind of you none the less. All the best with your practising!
Continua a tentar
Could you send me your tab? I really want to play this song, but there are too many tab version on Google, I dont know what is this ver. Tks in advance: thanbathien1995@gmail.com
Fala pedro, pode mandar sua tab pra mim tbm vei ksksks adora essa musica jozi39064@gmail.com
Wow you spent all saturday to get success try? I've spent 1 year learning this piece😂 and I still get some fails in it sometimes
It’s only when you have attempted to play this on classical guitar that you understand how hard is to sound this clean and beautiful.
Thanks for the kind comment, all the best!
Is the clearest and most beautiful version performed on guitar i ever heard....
Kind regards...
México...
Really glad you liked it, thank you so much! 👍
Absolutely stunning performance. Beautiful beyond words.
I'm brazilian. I very surprise how was so beautiful and clean your execution. A Masterpiece.
Thank you so much, best wishes from Scotland! 😍🙏
I was enjoying the coughing background noise but some guy in a suit playing a badass guitar keeps interrupting it and it is very annoying :\
There's always someone coughing - I suspect all coughing people love classical guitar or perhaps that doctor's prescription!...
hahaha that's a sad reality
Haha great comment
@@ArashAhmadiGuitar hahhaa
oh the irony ! ahah
So beautiful. Very clean execution. Love the feel and tempo.
Thank you Beverly, love to you and the family! 😍
This place has got some beautiful acoustics!
Definitely, can’t wait to get back there when concerts starts back again!
c'est sublime
🙏❤️
@@WilliamJohnston c'est beau...très beau...vous jouez si bien. Je vous dis "merci" parce que j'ai aimé vous écouter, ça m'a bercée, consolée, apaisée 🙏
one of my favorite guitar pieces that i can play, but i am not even close to this when it comes to clarity and pacing, simply loved it ❣
Thanks so much, good luck with practising this piece!

Hi William , when I was searching for this song “Comptine d'un Autre été” RUclips loaded your video up. Your playing inspired me to learn this song. Your mastery of the song is so good, control of the loudness and softness is perfect. 🤩

Congratulations 👏 You're Amazing!!
Thank you so much! 🙏😃❤️
Ole y ole pero que bueno que esta 😁😁😁😁
I know there are many tutorials of this piece on youtube already, but would you consider sharing your own? In my eyes you play this better than anyone I have seen on the internet, it would be an honor to learn from you! Thank you!
Thanks Chris! You’re not the only one who’s said that, maybe I’ll need to do a tutorial if the demand is there!
@@WilliamJohnston I think it makes sense! Do more of what is working :-) Side note: It would be cool if you could also cover more songs from Yann Tiersen/Amelie.
Magique!
Thank you! 😄👍
это потрясающе
Благодарность!
Superb! Masterpiece extraordinary interpreted. Classy, smooth, sweetie and hearty play
Thank you so much for your kind words! 🙏
@@WilliamJohnstonback in the days I used to play guitar and love it. But nothing close to this masterpiece execution
ruclips.net/video/GI6Ely2oJXI/видео.html
Superb
Very Nice!
Cheers James! Hope your finger is doing well and able to play?
Its good thanks, Able to play no problem. Keep meaning to make some videos myself! This style sounds great on classical, you should do some more, I think an arrangement of 'On the Nature of Daylight' by Max Richter would be nice too!
Very nice. I wish I watched this 5 years ago when I was so invested in my classical guitar. Now though, I am more into the Kalimba, and this piece is very difficult to learn on it.
Thanks for the kind words and best of luck with learning the piece! 😃👍
Amazing
Thanks Luigi!
this was mesmerizing sir, your chord progression sounds so smooth!
Thanks very much! Although can’t claim any credit for the composition of course, just the playing! 😅👍
Beautiful ❤️
Thanks!

My grandpa !!! Love ya till my last breath and cant wait to meet again.
YOU WERE MY FIRST FRIEND AND ILL NEVER FORGET YOU
One Situation burned in my brain.
Fact. My grandpa served in Wehrmacht and get pow in Ukraine.
Once ...i was a kid...my aunt asked him "dad , would you and mom join us on our trip to italy for vacation??"
My granddaddy.... Got sad eyes and said realy silence.
" Doughter, I LL NEVER EVER GO ANYWHERE !!! I STAY @ HOME ".
i understood 10 years later. Nobody cant imagine what he went through...7 years slavework in a mine as pow.
Survive f""" WW2 survive beeing pow coming back and all he want was to STAY AT HOME.
god bless all heros on every side for every country. True brave man !!!;

This is amazing sound and performance. Thank you sir. I think there is a person who need cough treatment lol.
Thanks Haydar! Ha yes, I’ve had audiences in better health 😅
@@WilliamJohnston ☺️ you are an awesome performer and artist sir. God bless you. I wish success everytime for you. 🧿🧿🧿 It means please got protect you from evel eyes. This is a traditional symbol for Anatolian people. 👍🙏
Excellently played! Anyone has a good arrangement for classical guitar? Happy to buy and learn to play it.
thankyou so much, its a beautiful performance. I just wanted to know how do you manage to play in public without feeling anxious?!! thankyou
Thank you very much! I would say it comes down to how prepared you feel. In general I would advise playing material that you are completely in control of, and practise playing it a lot (eg every day for a month) once you have decided on the exact right hand fingering, left hand fingering, exact sitting position etc, so that you are as consistent as possible, so that once you’re performing, you’ve already played it correctly >100+ times!
My favorite version. Please post sheet or tutorial!
Thanks, check Songster!
Really nice. I play this on the piano. Nowhere near as well as you though 👍
Thanks so much!
You should make a video to teach this
Thanks Gerald, great idea?
Beautiful, nice arrangement!
Arash Ahmadi thanks very much!
Good jop 👍🌹
Thank you Ali! 😃👍
Can't you do a tutorial please! 'Cause you play graciously and I would love to learn
very beautiful piece and amazing performance. Is there any chance you could post the tabs/music sheet of your playing? thank you
Thank you, I just used music available online!
That was amazing, bud. Did you create the tabs or consumed them somewhere?
Thank you so much! I used free sheet music/tabs online as a starting point and modified to taste, changed some of the octaves here and there to better suit the original piano recording. 😃👍
@@WilliamJohnston Truly love this version, would love to be able to buy it so I can learn
Se que puedo escribirlo en ingles pero mejor en español, la verdad el poder mental que estoy consiguiendo gracias a esa musica :')
Muchas gracias por tus amables palabras 😍
I saw in a reply of yours that you are considering about making your own arrangements. If you do so please leave a link in my comment! Excellent execution with a lot of emotion. Your pace was just on point with this!
Thanks so much! It’s basically identical to the tab version that’s easily found online (Songster), that’s a very good starting point anyway!
Wowwww!!! Amazing!! Can you share this sheet music with me?
Thanks for your kind comment, I’m considering making my own arrangement for sale, but you can certainly already find versions online if you search around! 🙂
very good! this is not an easy one to nail
Thanks very much Joe! 😃👍
Beautifully played and, even with my basic Grade 1 skills, I can appreciate the technical quality of your playing. I use this as a reference for my own technique particularly as regards left hand placement, fretting of strings, shifting and body posture. I love the way you can so clearly pick out the notes and rhythm of the accompaniment beneath the melody. I wonder what single piece of advice you would give a beginner as regards technique? Personally, I struggle with fretting the strings with enough force to get a clear note without fouling adjacent open strings. I thought about doing Segovia scales until blue in the face. Kind regards, James.
Hi James, thanks for the kind words!
Tough to find one piece of advice regarding technique as there are hundreds if not thousands of baby steps to take in the pursuit of good technique. I’d advise practising with a clear focus in mind, don’t try to do too many things at once. A teacher can help with this. But maybe even more important than that, my advice is stay inspired! The journey to playing an instrument is long, so enjoy the journey and never lose the love for the guitar, no matter what journey that leads you on! 😃👍
Biutiful. Chapeau! ( - :
Udo F Fritzen thanks!
