I can understand not liking a certain genre of music, but why in the world would you 'dislike' this? Recognize and respect talent when you see it. Bravo sir, this was beautiful.
I've given up any such hope years ago mate. Some of us will simply never be this good, but it's still worth doing your best and every now and then enjoy guys like this for inspiration :)
You sir inspires me to study and play different classical compositions. For me you are a legend to all of humanity and a living treasure of this world. Thank you sir for being a protege and a master at playing different pieces.
I remember watching this as a kid and mindblown thinking "how can this awesome guy play what I hear on piano on the guitar??" Now I am looking for my first job and rewatching this reminds me of the joyful curiosity and sense of wonder I had about music because of this very video. Thank you for posting this all these years ago, it really is my favorite video of all time ❤
That’s so amazing. Thank you so much and I’m so glad you found that inspiration. I actually just brought this back last week after not playing it for a couple of years And I still love playing it !!! Thanks so much
I love this arrangement of the piece! You inspired me to write my own arrangement of this piece for classical guitar. I'm 15 and visually impaired. So, I can't drive. My family and I have been staying in a motel for a while and I have been left alone all day while they work. I have been soooo bored. 'The entertainer' did exactly what it hints at... It entertained me! This song is actually one of my favorite pieces to play right now. Thank youuu. I hope to play it as well as you soon. I just finished my arrangement of the piece about 2 days ago. So, the song is playable but it is definitely not "perfect" yet. You are an excellent guitar player! I can't wait to be as good as you(:
Rilee Sloan hey I’m so sorry I did not know what is this comment until now! I try to respond as much as I can but I get overwhelmed sometimes performing recording and all of that. I hope you’re still playing I would love to see you perform it if you still are I’ve been working on it for years and years performed it on a tour in Brazil coming up in May anyway just wanted to reach back out to you and say I noticed your message and thanks so much
i had this song stuck in my head all day but couldn't for the life of me remember what it was, took me 3 hours to track down the game i last heard it from and then another hour listening to various versions of it thus leading me here... most worthwhile 4 hours i've spent in months, this was by far my favorite
I'm just learning a simpler version of this. Thanks for posting this and showing me how it should be done. Brilliant. The work you have put into learning this is well spent time.
hello I'm a big fan, you inspired me to learn guitar lol. Ive been playing now for 5 years everyday just about. I must say with out your inspiration i woulda gave it up a while ago but now its my passion .......thank you Michael Lucarelli your the man
I hope to someday be a wizard at guitar like yourself, I picked up an acoustic about 2 months ago and started playing it. I can do some pretty simple fingerstyle stuff but I love it.
That's amazing. No rock/metal guitarist can play that, or feel the accomplishment or gratitude you feel when playing... I have a history of playing heavy metal and I know. Well done sir!
Exceptional, Scott Joplin was brilliant, and this is a great piece for classical guitar. His biography needs to be re illuminated, an excellent example of what the life of an artist truely is. Fueled by the passion of life, all its pain and all its glory.
This is one of those videos I'm going to use to remind me how much practise I need.
why do you need to practice so long as your having fun
Can you play like this now?
Yeah, can you do it now?
Look up Paco de Lucia.
It's been 6 years.. How's the progress?
This is so good
Thank you!
I can understand not liking a certain genre of music, but why in the world would you 'dislike' this? Recognize and respect talent when you see it. Bravo sir, this was beautiful.
After all those years still so amazing
This is truly great music. What a great rendition!
Absolutely brilliant 🤩 Michael
Thank you! Glad you like this one
Hi!

I never saw someone waving up and down with right hand as much as you do, still, not a note was missed. Respect.
When you're that good, you get to make your own rules.
Fantastic! My favourite song of the 20th century!!!!!!!!
So good

I love this - my granddad plays it on the piano all the time and it is so great to hear it on guitar too!
The wonders for the drop-D tuning.
Much talent! This is amazing!

I love how amazing classical guitarists always make it look so easy. "Oh hey guys just being insanely good at a musical instrument or whatev."
Genio total!!! Un maestro, Fenómeno!!! Gracias por el arte.
Truly a inspiration Michael!
I really like this melody. Now I know this title. Awesome playing!
I've always had a thing for Ragtime and Classical guitar. Now I can hear them put together.
That was a stellar rendition
Excellent playing, Michael!
Dan Cook thanks so much

that is amazing. o am from Brazil and here, we Just love the well played guitar.
That's amazing. No rock/metal guitarist can play that, or feel the accomplishment or gratitude you feel when playing... I have a history of playing heavy metal and I know. Well done sir!
Thank you. I played metal for the first seven years before I switched to classical.
Yes! I discovered the real guitar after a being in a signed heavy metal band and it's really a world of difference.
I have a real hard time with my right hand picking, I only have real good control with my thumb, index and second fingers.
I'll get there though!
Fantastic playing sir !
Beautifully played, my congratulations.
Another I tried! But... Thanks, Michael! I will download ALL U´r music!!!
Quality musicianship and excellent tone,
again i refrain from putting my guitar in the bin,and learn a little more in this lifelong quest.
