The location for this short piece - the Chapel - is in the heart of the Gothic Palace, formerly part of the
Islamic enclosure, which was altered to meet the needs of the monarchs of Castile in the mid-thirteenth century. Its austere medieval vaulted spaces were decorated during the Spanish Renaissance with rich tiled skirtings, which date from the latter half of the sixteenth century.

Every single note is perfect.

@daviddoherty3349 Год назад

Every note is as clear as a bell. Williams has set the gold standard for classical guitar playing.

@rykehuss3435 Год назад

If youve ever played guitar, you know how difficult it is to play clearly. To play this, clearly, forget about it. But keep practicing

@NotoriousFunk 10 месяцев назад

I do not agree, I am studying this piece and I am listening to many different version of this marvelous piece, of course it is just my opinion, John Williams here didn't use some bass lines (that are written in the music score) to simplify the music and generally he played too much staccato for the entire piece, I prefer way more David Russel version, you can find the entire suite played by David. Again, just my opinion, music is subjective and John Williams is an incredible guitar player.

@@NotoriousFunkmaybe cause its his own version?? Idk ive taken things out of songs that didnt please my ear

@NotoriousFunk 8 месяцев назад

@@jaydenkenney5281 I personally changed only 1 note in my own version which is a relative major so I did not make lot's of "damages", I only arranged the fingering at my way. The problem is that Bach wrote those basses lines and is not fair especially if you are John Williams to not play it, I understand that in that way is more easy to control but still it's not what Bach wrote and we are talking about the biggest composer ever.

There is something about John Williams exquisite sound. Virtuoso, of course. But the clarity of his notes, his impeccable tempo. Is just immaculate. Absolutely the way this piece was meant to be played. It transports you...

@ggeorge4144 7 месяцев назад

Remember the man that wrote this incredible music was born in the 1600'S. From the 16th through the 19th century European composers wrote the most beautiful music ever, there will never be another period in history like that. Their music has been played for hundreds of years and will be continue to be taught in the finest music schools for centuries to come. Nothing can or ever will compare to it.

By such performances we are assured that the miracle and genius of JS Bach will capture the hearts of gifted players and continue on forever.

@spikespa5208 5 месяцев назад

How times did Bach use this theme under different titles? On the violin it's the prelude of Partita no. 3. On the organ it's Sinfonia to Contata no. 29. Did Bach plagiarize himself?

@StevieVman1 8 месяцев назад

My life has been deeply moved by listening to so many Williams masterpieces . I'm very sure any composer would be not only satisfied. But totally honored for his interpretations

Paco de Lucia has that title, sorry.. John Williams is amazing, but Paco would play circles around him at ease. Just listen to Paco - Reflejo de luna. Man thinks his guitar is a piano

@mjdillaha Год назад

@@rykehuss3435Paco de Lucia was a flamenco guitarist, not a classical guitarist. He couldn’t play these pieces at 50% of the proficiency that Williams does. It’s not remotely close.

The theory is that bach did not write this. Although he did own lute's in his collection, the actual transcription came from a student. But something about this transcription is just so Bach-esque. Either this student himself was a master or it came from Bach himself.
