    Behind the scenes iphone footage of The Commander In Chief's own version of Toccata & Fugue, performed live on October 30th and 31st 2016, (+ a little surprise at the end). This was part of a secret project, in cooperation with a major record label, where The CIC made her very own versions of classical masterpieces.The arrangements were made by The CIC, in cooperation with producer John Haywood.
    Shortly after these two performances she fell ill, when a vicious parasite infection wrecked havoc on her body for weeks. It would take her 16 months to recover, before she could get back to playing guitar again.
    In March 2018 she announced that she was back in business, recording a double album with her own original music. For more about that project, including a sneak peak of the music, join her on:
    www.commanderm...
    These videos were filmed by The CIC's manager/mom. They were meant for practice purpose and were never meant to be released to the public. However, The Chief wants to share this with her fans, so they can see for themselves what she spent months working on, before her illness. She also worked on another classical masterpiece, and she might release videos of that later.

    Respectfully Commander.
    Don't let them tell you what to do. Your playing is just awesome, and you don't need more "stage presence" than being the Commander in Chief.
    I'm grateful for watching you play this. It is 2018, you can produce your own record if you really want.

    Commander that I mean THAT was absolutely sick. Very few people man or woman can get a feel for the guitar like you can. The notes, tone, verb the cleaning ness are amazing. I love the sound that you have set up. Takes me back to the 60's. It's a sound of yesterday and maybe more young guitarist should hear it. I've said it before it Commander in Chief. Don't stop at lease anytime soon.

    Awesome rendition! Not only Bach would be proud but this piece also does justice to the guitar you hold. You see several guitarists handling 7/8 stringers but very few truly take them through their paces in a meaningful manner, yours is a rare exception. Ibanez should be very proud of you too. Very well done.

    Thank you for this moment, Commander. One of my favorite pieces. I hear this being played THIS WAY,
    way, way, way, way, way, way, way, back in the days of 'old!
    Yet somehow you connect it to the now, creating a mystical blend, of the past
    and the present, from which I hear the future.
    (1685-2018 and beyond)
    Wonderful Artistry, CIC.
    Sorry to hear about the bug. On the bright side, now you know what people went through back in Bach's day.
    That "long dark teatime of the soul" must of been a test. Hope all is well with you now.
    I wish you forever success in your musical career.
    Be Well, be You,
    and forever aim True.
    Play on..... Commander.

      All Hail, and mighty cheers to you, thecommanderinchief1.
      You are welcome,
      I speak truth.
      This video just popped up on RUclips, I hadn't heard of you before.
      I subscribed and went to your channel and....wow!
      I am right. You are the future of fusion.
      If I may be so bold, your sounds vibrate the musical atoms, creating a new form of art. I know others have played like this, yet You have that essence, the quality that can't be taught.
      It is the spark of God.
      Your music is like a tapestry, the way you weave traditional, classical thoughts together with modern progressive ideas, creates a musical mosaic of wonder.
      Saw the video where you interview your Mom.
      What a remarkable woman. I see where you got your sense and sensibility from.
      Like any new art form it takes a while for others to hear the light.
      You have to remember you are the Commander in Chief. Some may not understand where you are leading us musically, being the Leader it can be a lonely experience.
      You are exploring new territory. Remember the old sailing maps that say, for places no one has gone before,
      "Here be monsters".
      People are hesitant, even scared, of going to new places musically in their hearts and minds.
      Thanks for coming back from your musical adventures and showing us it's all good, the unknown is now known.
      This is what great Leadership is all about.
      Your artistic Odyssey may seem daunting so remember those who
      led people out of the wilderness of ignorance.
      Your musical light may be blinding at first but people will adapt to a new way of seeing your musical playing in a whole new light.
      Shine on, you're not crazy, you're a Diamond.

      Thank you very much for saying that. It's scary being a guitarist if you get injured and you don't know how long it will last, or if you'll need surgery, or if you'll never be able to play again, etc; It can also be pretty scary to play unusual material if you are a perfectionist and you are well aware of the difficulty level, the same can be said of expectations, which I've had to deal with since I was in my late teens, 1st in heavy metal and then in classical. There is a lot of work that goes into what I do & there will always be those who don't understand that!

    It's hard to understand in our modern times but when Bach wrote pieces like this he was a real revolutionary. He was one of the first composers to use "tempered tuning." That's a method of tuning where instruments sound in tune is all keys. That seems ancient to us now but in his time it was a totally new concept. He also embraced the newest technology available at the time. Imagine what he would do with today's technology.
