Hi Friends! I decided to try something a little different and record some songs on the classical guitar. It has a little bit of a different sound that I find very relaxing. Let me know what you think, would you like to hear more videos played on the classical? www.joshsnodgrass.com
@@JoshSnodgrass wie kommst du darauf? Hast du schlechte Erfahrungen damit gemacht? Ich habe einen Kanal und mir sind, Gott sei Dank, noch keine Betrüger begegnet. Schade, dass du keinen Kanal hast, denn es würden sicherlich viele Leute über Telegram deine Musik hören.
My 20 month old son has brain cancer and your music instantly calms him when he’s overwhelmed and distraught. I have already bought one album and I am sure I will be buying more in the next 8 months!
Sorry to hear about your son's cancer. I shared this comment with my wife and our hearts go out to you. We will pray for his healing and recovery. May God bless you and help you get through this difficult season.
Overcoming a bout of the flu. Thank you for this sweet and calming guitar. Amazed at how many songs I can sing in my head. God blessed me. You are that source this evening. Feeling better already.
Have been listening to Josh for 2 months now.....a lot of Christians have musical skills....but the thing I look for is the Presence of the Lord's touch in the music....like when David played strings at God's command to Saul....that strong Presence silenced Saul's demons and brought His touch....you have that, Josh. Holy healing comes through your playing. Blessings Josh!
"but the thing I look for is the Presence of the Lord's touch in the music." Yes. And it is there! Praise to our Lord. I have always noticed and been steruck by this. Beautifully said.
I've been listening to your music for maybe 3 years now. It gives me peace and joy. God's peace just fills my heart. Your music was with me and my husband when he was sick until the time that he passed last January. 💔 I am now living by myself and trying every single day to continue living. To distract me from thinking and hurting and crying I decided to review and study for the Bar exams. Listening to your music calms me and help me to stay up. I'm planning to take the Bar exams this Feb 2025. I need prayers. I didn't even tell my family and friends that I'm planning to take the Bar exams. I pray that God will continue use your music to bless your listeners.
Hi Rosa, Thanks for commenting and for listening to my music these last 3 years! I appreciate it. I will pray right now that the Lord will help you pass the Bar exams.
@@JoshSnodgrassDear Josh, you just don't know how much of a blessing you are to me. Your music has been my companion everytime I study for the Bar exams. At times I feel so broken and in tears that I can't hardly see what I'm reading. But everytime, your music calms me and help me to feel strongly the presence of the Holy Spirit. You anointed music and the Holy Spirit has been with me in my journey. Knowing that you prayed for me just brought tears to my eyes, I know that God will listen to your prayers. Please continue to inspire with your music. God bless you and your family always.
We listen to your guitar playing every morning to set the mood in our home for the day. I love it when I hear an old camp song from when I was a teenager at church camp... it takes me back, and this is the only place I've found that (without looking 😉). Thank you for these beautiful reminders of being a young Christian back when life was more simple. ❤️
This music is a blessing to me. Please continue to produce classical guitar music worshipping God for he is most worthy of all our love, adoration, praises and all glory. God is good. His love endures forever. ❤
I am always looking for soft, smooth background music to play in my home. It is Sabbath morning right now, and this music is perfect for promoting peace and calm in my home. It is beautiful. Thank you, Mr. Snodgrass.
I am a great fan of classical guitar. It really fits the intimate and meditative character of your worship music. God Bless You for your work for the Kingdom.
I also play classical guitar, so I am a little biased. It has a clean unadorned quality that is distinctly different from an acoustic. I look forward to playing along and trying to learn the arrangements.
Hi Pastor Chuck, I hope you're doing well. I don't get a lot of comments from people that I knew before my channel grew so much. Good to hear from you! I find the classical guitar has a lot more little "squeaky noises" to try and avoid that a steel string guitar but it does have less of a sharp tone which can be good or bad I guess. I find that I need to pick really softly on an acoustic to get songs to have that worshipful sound but on the classical, I can't do that (at least not throughout the song) because then the recording just sounds kind of dull.
☀️🕊Thank you, Jesus,thank you, Mr.Snodgrass.Your music is very anointed of the Lord!! It truly ministers healing to my heart.Love in Jesus from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. The Black family 🌴🙏🌸
So beautiful and clear, with each note distinct. Lovely resonance. Thank you so much, Josh, for yet another amazing blessing of a video - this time using a classical guitar. I love it.
It's Beautiful ❤️ I love the classic sounds so comforting. Josh I praise God for you. My husband use to play, we've been married 45 years. He says he's Too busy. I use your music to relax and often sleep with it playing. You & your Family are in my prayers. I can't thank you enough. ❤
such beautiful guitar rendition of these hymns....Thank u for sharing your versions that calm the soul just listening to you play....and brings us back to worship the Almighty Loving God....
Oi você que estar com o celular na cao ouvido esse louvor, que todos os teus sonhos sejam realizados, que sua saúde seja restaurada, e o momento Ruim vai passar Deus te abençoe sempre
Josh, this work is some of the best sense I started listening in 2020. I can hear a major difference. Classical guitar suits you. You and your family Be blessed and Safe.
I'm new to your channel,I just wanted to tell you I'm loving it. You have a gift. So beautiful. And I like the Christian worship songs. I also love that it is recorded loud enough that I can here it good, I'm a little hard of hearing but I can hear this well without having to use a speaker. Thank you for what you do. God Bless!
Yeah, AI generated music is pretty bad. It's sad that seems to be where music is headed. I'm going to keep recording a real guitar with microphones. It's not easy but I feel like it has more emotion than the AI generated stuff.
Beautiful music, thank you for uploading this! The classical sound is very relaxing, and it makes for a good blend with edifying music. Thank you for using your skill to bless others. (Also, just wanted to let you know that I think some of the time marker links for the songs are mixed up in the description).
This is so absolutely beautiful! I create content and only wish I could have your music in the background of all of my videos. Thank you for providing this as it is so soothing to listen to worship music without the loud sounds that distract from its intended meaning. Blessings to you!
Hi, I often give permission to other creators to use my music. Could you please email me with a brief description of the videos you want to create? www.joshsnodgrass.com/contact
Hi Rick, Give Thanks, Shout to the Lord, Amazing Love and Your Grace is Enough are all new arrangements and songs I've never recorded either. The Goodness of God is the same arrangement I previously recorded but played on classical. -This was a lot of work for 2 weeks!
@@rickraub5448 It was a lot of work for sure! I felt like the Lord put the wind in my sails though. I was amazed that I was able to get them all done so quickly.
Are you looking for guitar tab/sheet music or the audio recordings? My music is on iTunes and other similar services. The Guitar/Sheet music I have available is mostly at my site: www.joshsnodgrass.com/tab
Hello Josh, thank you for this, it is very nice.. I am curious, did you play this with or without nails? …I like steel string and nylon string, i think they both have their pros and cons.. for a long time I was discouraged because I thought you couldn’t get a proper sound out of a nylon string guitar without having nails.. However I have been finding out that historically no nail classical players have always existed and it is somewhat experiencing a revival in our current time.
Hi, that's a great question. I think that part of the decision on whether to use nails has to do with the shape of the guitarist's fingertips. I've seen some guitarists who have more of an edge to their fingertips and they don't need to use nails. My fingertips are very rounded, and I just can't get a crisp sound without nails. That being said, I try to keep them on the shorter side so that I still get the "feedback" from my fingertips touching the string (as opposed to having longer nails, not letting the string touch the flesh of your fingertip and just picking with the nail). You might check out some of Adam Rafferty's videos on the topic. He plays without nails. He primarily plays acoustic but he does some good classical work as well. He has some videos where he talks about his struggle with this topic and how he came up with his current approach. I hope that helps!
Suggestion: I play finger style and also do strum with my thumb for some songs. I never use a pick. The strings on my two Martin guitars are designed for fingerpicking, as they are light Martin silk and steel. I used to fingerpick years ago on standard steel strings which tore up my fingers and nails, too much weight and all metal. Once I went to silk and steel, everything changed for the better. Give it a try if you haven’t already. One reason I can’t play classical guitars is because these guitars are wider, and my frets are narrower on the Martins. My finger reach is comfortable on the Martin, and I have tried other guitars, but didn’t like the “feel”. Only Martins are my preference. Everybody has to find for themselves what works. God bless. Best to you.
@@johnj.flanagan-hymnsoffaith Thank you John, yes I actually have tried the silk and steel strings and I did like the tone of them a lot, and they were also way easier to play.. but I still do prefer the tone of nylon strings for fingerpicking even over the silk and steel. It varies, some styles/techniques sound better to me on different types of strings. My personal taste is that I like nylon or the silk and steel for fingerpicking picking and regular steel strings for strumming. I appreciate your input! Thank you
