I have completed a two hour study of the Bach Chaconne played on the guitar and my favorites were Christopher Parkening and of course Andres Segovia . I then stumbled upon this great guitarist that is new to me Joaquin Clerch . Want a great find . I have never heard of him before so now I have another project . What a performance. Perfect in every way . His technique is above reproach but his dynamics and verve transforms this to a higher level . An absolutely great performance and a difficult template for other guitarist . Just inspiring and perfect . Thank you Mr Clerch !
It’s a great pleasure to hear my former teacher once again! His personality shines through and his performance and unique interpretation could not be mistaken with anybody else. Bravo maestro!

Just wondering ... how is it possible that I never heard of this increduble guitarrist before? Amazing quality! Thanks for tonebase for bringing him to us.
I've heard countless renditions of this piece, but this is the most creative by far. The ornamentations are so unique, but still fit in perfectly. Masterful.
Wonderful version! He has a very deep knowdlege of technique, musicality and style! We hope to listen to more of him! I'm proud that I could be his pupil!
Estimado Maestro Clerch !!!! Que grandiosa alegría y felicidad me produces al regalarte a este universo en una manera tan equilibrada de conocimiento, pasión , emoción y entrega !!!! Es un gran regalo escucharte y ver tu grandeza tan amable y accesible . Escucharte es disfrutar de la infinita historia de la música y tu única manera de ser maravilloso !!!! Muchas gracias 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Escuchar a Joaquín tocar Bach es sinónimo de éxtasis. Se puede apreciar el inmenso conocimiento de la época y el compositor en esta maravillosa interpretación. Gracias maestro por este regalo, te admiro y te quiero. Gabi.
Todo lo bueno que aprendí en este mundo de la música y en mi formación como ser humano, gran parte de ello se lo debo a mi maestro Joaquín Clerch, de las personas más impresionantes que he conocido en la vida, de esas que te marcan para siempre con su manera de imaginar el mundo. Gracias.
Stunning. The maestro has managed to convince me this was written for guitar. Perhaps I will grow my nails back and maybe in ten years I could play this arrangement 10% as beautifully.
Wow! That was awesome. It's often said in the world of classical music that, due to the prevalence of brilliant players these days, one really has to be bold with one's interpretation of much-played pieces such as this one in order to stand out. Well Joaquin has certainly done that. A very unique interpretation, loaded with character and bold choices, and beautifully played.
I believe that’s right. So many guitarists these days are technically amazing and can nail every note on the page, but it seems few have Clerch’s sensibilities, experience, and knowledge to develop interpretations like this. Simply following the score is great as well, but as a guitarist myself, it’s wonderfully refreshing to hear, unique interpretations such as this. Clerch is master. I think he’s taking some stylistic cues from the lute as well, which is a really great touch. Also, the guitar sounds great!
@@johnmckindley-ward8070I don't agree. We are not talking of better or worse. We should rather speak of it being a beautiful flower in a meadow full of beautiful flowers. And his interpretation stands out because he plays with unusually many ornaments. But the Chaconne is also just as touching if you play it extremely simply.
I have played this piece at nearly this level and it takes years and years. Through many decades this has been known to be one of the most difficult pieces of classical guitar available. BWV 1004 just might be one of the most profound songs even composed. Hard work found here. That major part!! Oh man... so tender, just as it should be.
Magistral. Un orgullo para nosotros los guitaristas cubanos. Joaquin es sin lugar a dudas uno de los mas grandes guitarristas de estos tiempos. Un video que queda para la historia. 👏👏👏👏.
Gracias, muchas gracias al canal por este gran regalo! Solo viendo el título y sin haber escuchado un segundo ya se sabe que la interpretación va a ser magistral. Un gran saludo al Maestro Joaquín.
El sentimiento más poderoso e increíble que se puede transmitir a través de la música es el amor. Bach transmite este sentimiento de duelo hacia su mujer con su chacona, y Joaquín siente el amor y el dolor de Bach y lo logra interpretar a la perfección. Simplemente hermoso.
Bravo maestro, Bravo. This is a beautiful study that keeps delivering on mood, subject, Timbre, and all the trimmings. It leaves the world a better place by virtue of bringing truth, beauty, and meaning, to make existence worthwhile, which is the entire point. Bravo Maestro, Bravo. Nice sounding instrument also. Sounds like a Romanillious, but there are so many wonderful instruments these days, and you make yours sing. Ronnie Rugato
BRAVOOO!! MASTERFUL! He truely understood this piece. This is incredible. The way he just riffs away, adds new harmonies, plays around with the themes, adds a contrast tone... FLAWLESS technical playing as well. This. This is perfection. THANK YOU for this rendition! I've listened to pretty much every one on youtube and this is one of the only handful of pieces I still play on the guitar for almost 3 years now. And this is what I want it to sound like. The other performers did a great job as well, but this one definitely takes the cake! BRAVISSIMO MAESTRO!
Joaquin your performance is outstanding! I particularly liked your expression and execution of grace notes. Yours is one of the best interpretations of this challenging Bach piece for classical guitar. Bravo!
I've been playing guitar for several years and I didn't know that it was possible to play fast passages on classical guitar with the thumb and index finger alternating. I don't remember seeing this anywhere else and it sounds great. 3:32 to 3:42 👌
The other performances of this piece have a strong sense of being guitar arrangements of the original violin piece, but this one feels like it was originally written for guitar. The ornament on this performance was meant to give the impression of a harpsichord, I think. It was a very impressive performance.
What bass lines!!! My goodness! Brilliantly done on the great eulogy of the entire western corpus of music. You see 20th century - there was never anything wrong with tonal music.
The sheer amount of sound that Joaquim is able to pull out of a 6 string is truly extraordinary. A delightful performance, full of life and energy. Very many thanks.
Every note was perfectly clear. I will try to play it like you have from now on. Although, our respective hands are different sizes and shapes, so the 2 octave Bb stretch @5:19 might be a struggle, I've listened to almost every published version of this on guitar and, yes, this is the 'best'. Wow.
I listened to you upon the recommendation of a friend. I really liked your musical interpretation. I'm glad our paths crossed even if it's in the virtual world. I hope to have the opportunity to listen to you on stage live one day. Congratulations and I thanks for your sharing.
That is the one part of the classical guitar environment, that I really just hate: All people talks about technical difficulties and achievements in music, as that is the holy grail! What about beauty and expression? Sometimes the beauty is in the simplicity and I love this music for it's beauty! By the way, the best music, that I have ever known in real life, Thomas Koppel from Savage Rose, where the one, who taught me and often talked about, that beauty in music often were found in simplicity.

Il faut écouter Raphaëlla Smits elle joue tous les jours cette pièce à merveille rien à voir avec tout ce qui a été entendu !!!
My feelings entirely. Yes, the man knows how to ornament, that's for sure. Perfect!
На мою думку Андре де Вітіс - найкраще виконання Чакони!!!Послухайте!
It’s a great pleasure to hear my former teacher once again! His personality shines through and his performance and unique interpretation could not be mistaken with anybody else. Bravo maestro!
Just wondering ... how is it possible that I never heard of this increduble guitarrist before? Amazing quality! Thanks for tonebase for bringing him to us.
he is a product of the great Cuban school of classical guitarists!!
Bach is a legend and the artist performed it in an excellent way. Excellent technic and nuance. Thanks for uploading.
Your rendition of this is so incredibly beautiful I have no words for it.
I've heard countless renditions of this piece, but this is the most creative by far. The ornamentations are so unique, but still fit in perfectly. Masterful.
Amongst the best musicians I’ve heard. Wonderful concert. Loved it. 🌱🥀💕☘️🔥🌻
I've never heard for maestro Clerch before, but this is an interpretetion I will refer and get back to it. It was played so cleanly and intelligently.
This man gives us a glimpse of his soul through his music.
Speechless at this man talent
Merveilleuse interprétation sans aucune faute avec de nombreuses ornementations du grand art.
Wonderful version! He has a very deep knowdlege of technique, musicality and style! We hope to listen to more of him! I'm proud that I could be his pupil!
What a pleasure it’s to listen to Bach on guitar!
Without doubt, the finest version I've heard with lovely, silky ornamentation. Thanks for sharing your art.

Grande grande Joaquín, muy feliz de escucharte así de increíble
I'm lost for words! One of the most amazing renditions i've ever heard. Thank you, Joaquín Clerch.
Probably the cleanest performance I've ever seen! Bravo!
Mi chiedo quanti al mondo possano suonare questo brano con una tale perfezione! Bravo!
Muy pocos, la verdad.
What a wonderful interpretation. Profoundly beautiful. Bravo!
a word of appreciation for the maker of this fine guitar would not go amiss ,Paco Santiago Marin of Granada Spain.
Beautifully played. Not just well, but with heartfelt dynamics. I felt it.
Una de las más bellas interpretaciones de esta Ciaconna de Bach ,llena de recursos técnicos y musicalidad 👏👏
Saludos desde 🇨🇱

La mejor versión que he oído en el mundo. Qué belleza y conocimiento. Abrazo Joaquín. ❤❤
Amazing performance & rendition!👍💕
A fine interpretation of one of the wonders of classical music.
Absolute master.
MAESTRO!! Gracias por compartir esta interpretación
Love how Joaquin Clerch interpreted Bach's Chaconne
Impressive. It’s one of the fastest interpretations I’ve heard on guitar, yet cleanly played, and it does not sound rushed. Quite good. Thank you.
Is English not your first language or are you purposefully being mean
@@promisteryolo1786 what? he was not mean at all, quite the opposite actually
Very passionate I love it.
Amazing performance! Beautiful!
OMG, it’s gorgeous sounds of ever!!!❤❤❤

This is nearly identical to the Segovia transcription
Absolutamente fantástica versión. Admiración, maestro Joaquín.
Magistral. Un orgullo para nosotros los guitaristas cubanos. Joaquin es sin lugar a dudas uno de los mas grandes guitarristas de estos tiempos. Un video que queda para la historia. 👏👏👏👏.
No lo conocía, es buenísimo...asombroso..
Beautiful...so, so beautiful! Soothing, gently comforting! Thank you!

그 어떤 샤콘느보다도 더욱 더 빠져들게 하는 마약같은 연주네요~.~ 트릴 나올때마다 소오름~ 👍 👍 👍 환상적인 연주 ❤❤❤ 들려주셔서 감사합니다 🙏
beautiful. such a magical piece.
Joaquin your performance is outstanding! I particularly liked your expression and execution of grace notes. Yours is one of the best interpretations of this challenging Bach piece for classical guitar. Bravo!
That was superb!!! That was the best rendition of Chaconne I've ever heard!!!
I will now begin watching this the first of hundreds of times I will end up watching this
Fantastica esecuzione. Bravissimo! 👏👏👏
Grandioso Joaquín, en la zubia me distes una máster class y nunca aprendí tanto como contigo. BRAVO!!
Simplemente Magistral!👏
This is excellent.
amazingly done
Bravo 👏👏👏 Very clear and one of thr best versions of this piece that ever was played. You've made me feel it in my soul, thank you.

I live everything specially this small guitar sounds so good
What bass lines!!! My goodness! Brilliantly done on the great eulogy of the entire western corpus of music.
You see 20th century - there was never anything wrong with tonal music.
Just astonishing.
The sheer amount of sound that Joaquim is able to pull out of a 6 string is truly extraordinary.
A delightful performance, full of life and energy.
Very many thanks.
Chrismoyler ,True enough but how about a bit of appreciation for the luthier of this fine guitar ? Paco Marin of Granada.
Cuánta belleza!. Gracias!
Amazing beutifull performarce
Amazing sound, a really beautiful gift. Bravo!!
Damn that is impressive. Respect.
Wow...that was Brilliant....a true artist.... that's a gift from Heaven right there.
Jesucristo bentido..Howwwwly Jesus!! ...😲😳
Very interesting interpretation and play. Wonderful!
Wau! Amazing, one of the best I've heard.
Awesome and wonderful. 👏👏👏
Beautiful !
Wow great
Excellent tone and musicality!

This is exactly where I’m stuck at!
Bravo, maestro!!!
Great interpretation of this very difficult piece.!
Rock on dude! You make your Guitar sing, literally.
En hora buena maestro, grande interpretación. Bravo.
Awesomely executed!!!❤👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I listened to you upon the recommendation of a friend. I really liked your musical interpretation. I'm glad our paths crossed even if it's in the virtual world. I hope to have the opportunity to listen to you on stage live one day. Congratulations and I thanks for your sharing.
Wow, that was spectacular! Very impressive, very beautiful. Thanks!
Wow!!! Stunning ! Superb! Phenomenal!
Andrés Segovia y Christopher Parking los grandes interpretes de esta Obra Celestial y Magistral
Someone might think why this piece has been recorded many times. It's a very very hard piece to achieve this kind of level this man has achieved.
Yes I have tried this piece and afterwards just play Cowboy chords and sing😂. Maybe one year every day 3-4hours will make it but big Maybe😎🎸.
