One of the most appealing things about Muriel's guitar playing is, that dazzling smile of hers! She looks like she's having an absolute blast, and that adds a whole extra dimension to her astonishing talent and skill as a musician. I've met her in person, and she is the very personification of sweetness and joy. It's also a real kick to watch the expressions on the faces of the audience- especially people who have never seen her play before. I've seen people bust into tears, from amazement and wonder at her dazzling musicality.
Don't know what is Muriel's best quality..her looks, her winning personality and smile..or her FANTAS- TIC playing on so many different instruments! 🎵🎶🎼👏👏👏👌👌👌🌹🌹🌹🌹❤❤❤❤
Wonderful song from way back when done soooooooooo well. It just doesn't get any better than this in the guitar world. You are amazing, Muriel. Thanks for posting this.
Every time I watch your videos it makes me cringe just how much strength you have in your fingers and wrist, a brilliant player and amazing musician you are beautiful in so many dimensions, thank you.
Damn! I have sheet music for this from when I first was taking lessons in 1965. I still can't play it! (albeit I haven't practiced it at all over the years. That was marvelous!
Muriel still slays me. I first heard her some 20 years ago and got her transcription of The Liberty Bell AKA Monty Python's Flying Circus theme. It's the only Muriel Anderson piece I can play. I'm going to see her perform at the Lobero Theater, October 1 in Santa Barbara. Bringing sheet music for an autograph (I hope).
This is the kind of playing that makes me want to pack my instrument away and forget the whole thing. Imagine pulling this off in front of 5000 people.
This song is unbelivable! What dedication Muriel has for mastering this song. Bravo Muriel! Hope to see you someday in concert. I missed you last year at the Woodcutters Ball at Kent State and was sick over it. I'd love to see you and Jerry Belsak together. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
Muriel is a master guitarist. I cannot imagine Felix Arndt would have ever dreamed it was possible for this to have been played on only the treble clef, that a stringed instrument could be played this way. Maybe I’m wrong, but I doubt even Django Reinhardt would think it could be done. Then again, maybe I’m wrong, but this is absolutely amazing! Les Paul’s electric guitar version is nice, but it doesn’t really count because he had studio musician backing him up, and it sounds like he’s really just playing the treble clef part of the original sheet music written for piano with a little Les Paul flare thrown on.
Bravo, bravissimo- this was just perfect! Very complex and beautiful harmonies apparently just dancing on the strings so easily combined with that hilarious expression just blew me away.
You don't watch a thing like this everyday. Nola is difficult on the piano and so it is on the accordion. But on the guitar it must be even more difficult to play Nola, though Muriel seem to think it's so easy...
Nice job. Particularly like the tempo. So many (any instrument) version is played much too fast! This is just right and I like the enthusiasm!. Now, can somebody perhaps direct us to the CHORDING for this tune? Thank you.

I love the way you grin when you play the harmonics! Great playing!
Still Effortlessly Amazing Always Mesmerized By Her Soul Driven Mastery🎼

This lady loves to bury herself in her playing, it seems that she is the happiest musician alive! An absolute joy to listen!
Best arrangement of nola i have ever heard wonderful picking.

I always have to revisit this song by Muriel Andreson. What an accomplishment to be able to play it well! It's her theme song. Bravissimo!
Incredible. This could easily be my favourite bluegrass tune. Love the crosspicking fingerstyle
I love your smile and your playing !!!
I love everything about you and your music. You are beautiful, your playing is fabulous, and the sound of your guitar is wonderful.
Muriel is MY Guitar hero

I could hear this all the night. Nice sound, wonderful. Thanks for this! :-)
BRAVOOOO!!! You are wonderful.

Muriel has the most gifted hands ever......My word!.....I love to watch her hands....

amazing! "Madame Guitar"!
It's always a pleasure to ear Muriel Playing!
I love watching one's who love, what they are doing! I.E. Muriel making love/ music to her guitar!

Very interesting and well played version of this great tune...Jack Baker NYC
Absolutely genius, what dexterity
Bravo, bravissimo- this was just perfect!
Very complex and beautiful harmonies apparently just dancing on the strings so easily combined with that hilarious expression just blew me away.
Saw her place this last night in Chatham, NJ at Sanctuary. If you haven't seen Muriel live, you must. The entire show was excellent. - John Palermo
Wonderful!
She is still my guitar hero! She’s a giant
WOW the best guitarist I've ever had the pleasure of hearing
Wow. Beautiful
Jeez this is awesome
Ouch.....astonishing....I think I'm in love too....
Amazing!
So playful and amazing!!!
Bravo!!! ❤Excellent!!!
Wow, this is really fun! I just enjoy it to see you play this with a smile on your face ..... I think if I have to play this I would cry ;-)!
You are a wonderful entertainer and musician.
Joy on her face. Joy in her fingers. Joy in her heart
Amazing.
This is lovely Muriel 💥💫👍
Outstanding
Fabulous.
This is insane. So good.
Je t'adore...
Magnificent!
Show !!!!!!!
Fantastic !!!!!
Amazing !!!!
Best part is, she is obviously having so much damn fun.
the only person I've seen have that much fun playing an instrument was Victor Borges.
Incredible,
The lady owns this song.
So much fun!!!😀😀😀
Grandiosa !!!!!
Damn you, RUclips! You've done it to me again. I only met the girl five minutes ago and I'm in love.
marklovescadaqus..No way, Jose! I found her first!
🤪🤪😜😜💖💖💖
You don't watch a thing like this everyday. Nola is difficult on the piano and so it is on the accordion. But on the guitar it must be even more difficult to play Nola, though Muriel seem to think it's so easy...
I can tell you as a guitarist, this piece is fiendishly difficult to play fluently from start to finish.
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very impressive!
riel Anderson receives a set of new guitar strings
ci sono trascrizioni per questo brano?
yow! the lady really good on that "git-fiddle box"!( as my Appalachian great-granny called it)
Brutal.
Wow!
The illusion is that Muriel doesn’t allow any stumbling blocks
Even with the chromatic triplets.
It’s no easier on the mandolin.
j' aime pas trop ce morceau mais franchement tu es un diable à la gratte!!
Bravo Muriel!!
originally composed by Felix Arndt
nice
Nice job. Particularly like the tempo. So many (any instrument) version is played much too fast! This is just right and I like the enthusiasm!. Now, can somebody perhaps direct us to the CHORDING for this tune? Thank you.
Wot? How good is that? Love how she clearly enjoys playing - Felix would be pleased.
wow.....
Olá!!gostaria de saber de quem é a música!!NOLA
agradeço a atenção
woooo mami que lindo tocas..,.;)
¿¿¿Que guitarra usa ??
does anyone has the sheet music?
Effortlessly...
I have so much respect for you. If It was the 15th century or about you'd have my staff. Ahhh excuse me,rotflmao. no pun intended mlady. lol
I play almost as good as her. Maybe if I practice 8 hours a day for the next 200 years, I might play half as good as she does O_O .
I am much better than her....hold my beer!!!
what ?!? I cant figure out every chord that she used... :S
That Girl surely has fingers as agile as an "octopus has legs"..she's great..
Omg. Why am i even writing music anymore...
I'm back. Ha, ha.
whoa!!!! what a great guitar player she looks like Carley Simon with talent. Not that Carley does't have talent.....
Ya can't play that with a flat pick Roy Clark so you just head on back to the corn field.
Muriel looks like a sexy Carly Simon ,,,as if Carly isn t
