go up

Yep

The look works for you.

You definitely have become a force to be reckoned with and you shall lead the young into great heights of sound and technique. I am so happy your father let you choose your own path.👑⚡

I want to play this!!!!

Hahaha it is top coment for me....

There can be only one.

Lmao

Incredible statement. I concur. ⚡🔥👍

Totally agree 🤣 I am one of the guys

I know right. Same here. I was looking for a trick because it seemed way too seemless to be live

He started when he was 10 and at 14 he started winning competitions all over the place.

I mean... its obviously not real. Its a studio recording while he plays in a music video, probably taking 100000s of takes part by part.

really?@@Smartacus420

Ha, ha... very funny 🧛🏼‍♂️

@@Marlena5227that looks like what he’s wearing lol

😂😂😂❤❤❤

@@Marlena5227so funny 😂😂

I bet it’s harder to play it on the organ because if the keys on the bottom but either way its still hard.

@@Shreksbigfattoeyo harder on the guitar Source: trust me bro

I don't see how reducing the number of notes from 12(two hands and two feet for organ) to 6 makes the guitar harder? You forget this song is for organ, it has keys you play with your feet, and many keyboards. The real organ piece is much harder than this... just saying. Go listen to the visual note by note of the song and you will see how many notes this guy is not playing compared to organ. I get he is good, but it is not really comparable to take an organ piece and play it on guitar and say it is harder. The two are not comparable as the arrangement is different. I could play this arrangement very easily as there is only really one hands worth of notes played at once(for the piano at least) There only 6 strings after all.

@@pyrophile9972 I was not saying it was not difficult on the guitar, just that the organ is more complex. By default the organ has more inputs for one to use. And as I said, a maximum of 12 notes played at once. Even with the drum like percussion he never really played more than 7 notes. I know it is difficult, but what make guitar inherently more difficult than the organ? You don't even use your feet at all for guitar. I dont have to have played the guitar(which I have, not to this level at all though) to know that doing 12 things at once with 4 body parts is harder than using 4 fingers on left hand and right hand strumming(and yes I know he was doing percussion as well but you get my point) Organ requires feet work like a drummer while playing all of the notes of piano and switching keyboards and sounds all at the same time. I think most of the skill of his guitar performance is in the arrangement, making use of the notes he has and still making it sound like the organ piece to some extent. Plus the production value and so on, it was a good video. But God level difficulty as many people say here, I have my reservations about that. I think my criticism is fair.

@@willernst8376 when will you realize that there are no way to compare 2 instruments to eah other in terms of difficulty.

Have you ever seen the school he went to. The whole classroom is filled with kids playing this well. It's crazy.

@@jwhippet8313 That just blows my mind even more. People with that type of musical talent fascinate me. I absolutely love various types of music, but I cannot even consistently play "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" on my grandson's toy piano.

@Tin-Man Start with stunning natural talent. Add stunning musical education. Add “young enough to try and old enough to figure it out.” Add serious additional structural support for the guitar so he doesn’t crack it. Stir well until… Marcin. :) He’s amazing!

First time?

Practice makes perfect.

Absolutely not. Bach is rolling in his grave at this

That's a nice thought but reality is Bach would be furious.

Hell nah. He’d go berserk with rage. He’d be glad he was deaf

Bach's Toca&Fugue on el.Guitar best version :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Di4UNfrLBLs.html

@@edwannateatwain5672 do u actully compere this 2??? I mean dont get me wrong the other guy is amazing but they aint on the same game. Marcin is on another plane...

❤💚💙💜💙💚❤

His self-certainty and blatant arrogance absolutely *destroyed* this beautiful piece of poetic composition. Don't care if the whole world disagrees with me either...

@@jennifermiller4264 same

And lots of practice. 😂

no

Head down !!! Truly a mmasterpiece

Yes! Best guitarist I’ve ever listened to! What a gift he and G-d have given us!!

Yeah this was my favorite part!

That would just melt Bach's brain, like looking straight into the eyes of an eldritch horror

But he has practiced for only 159 years.

Hence...dracula

... Which is why I believe our "savants" of today are people who brought their giftings from other eras back into this matrix. Absolutely incredible.

Он горец. Должен остаться только один)

@@TheJenGeo Cringe.

He’s doing a toccata. :) toccata is literally renaissance speak for show off piece. So far this is the only one I’ve heard on guitar that actually qualifies.

Yes!

I feel the same. If ever there was a case for reincarnation, he is it! That goes so far above what someone could accomplish in one lifetime.

His mannerisms remind me of Stevie Ray Vaughn. I swear Marcin is SRV reincarnated in Europe.

I waiting for that to... do it now plz 🤣🤣🤣

Well said. My favorites are Stevie Ray Vaughan and Eddie Van Halen. I think if EVH had not struggled so much with drugs and cancer he would have gone even farther. Marcin will go as far as he wants.

So are they

I'm not saying Marcin isnt an excellent guitar player, but this is very heavily edited, and it would never sound like that in a live session. However i'm pretty sure it would sound evry good nonetheless

@@MrSunnyShooter The editing has nothing to do with his talent. It would sound even better without the other sounds added.

@@MrSunnyShooter What a strange thing to say. Im going to say this for what it is as an undeniable truth of the universe- Marcin plays it better live

Meow🎉

Awesome playing

Legendary play

You shoukd have seen his performance with a flute...

The guitar grew a soul of its own

True!

I may replace bedtime stories with this. Good idea

He is the best, moust of ppl think like that,so it must be a true. For me he is the best and would stay the best for every. I have waching him 50 times pear day, sometines more 😁. ❤️

Agree

@@morfeuszmorfeusz8681 Tommy Emmanuel is worlds best acoustic guitar player

==== That would be Yamandu Costa as the greatest guitarist in the world. 2nd, Tommy Emmanuel and Lenny Breau and Chet Atkins and Jimi Hendrix and Eddie Van Halen and Joe Banamasa and Stevie Ray Van and West Montgomery and George Benson and Django Reinhardt and Joe Pass and etc...

@@kennethbransford820 lol marcin is the world best polish guitarlist...even they cant come to marcins level as considering marcins age he is phenomenal....

That ain't no god that's hard fucking work

ik.. it's so rare when you can definitely say that someone is the best you've ever heard in their realm, and he is definitely the most skilled guitarist i've seen. he's really incredible

@@an6350 If you like blues you can look up justin johnson here on RU-vid, he is brilliant too.

It's mesmerising, like the man and the instrument and the music become one singular entity. Apotheosis.

I think he a GREAT guitarist! But Chopin was a pianist-

The common mass of people are simple minded. They can't comprehend this, it comes across as noise to them, like kardi B does to people who enjoy this young and insanely talented young man!

if people recognized geniuses, they would be brilliant themselves, and they are not.

It's probably because of his hairstyle.. He's a great musician, but his face is very punchable

Yea, hes not the only one. But i notice for musicians on youtube they get alot of views but not a lot of subs

@@thurisazx thats ehhh not how that works... its just a common pattern that people dont sub to musicians

Well put.

It's called classical guitar training.

Accurate comment

Це польський "діамант".

my guitar sits in silence...but yet it can do marvelous things in thy hands of thus immortal sole

Look up "luca stricagnoli"

Unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@@Executioner-Productions I’ve heard them all being a lifelong guitarist (60 years) and I’d say : Marcin Matteo Mankuso And Luca are the best out there. Not in that order. Definitely top three in my book. We’re witnessing the evolution of guitar playing. A new benchmark is being set.

Prawda !!

Zgadzam się w 💯!

Dobre...Bach sam by go wybral gdyby mogl...

Unosi się ponad nimi.Leć Marcinie Leć

Yeah, when I saw his videos, I gained a whole new perspective on how many ways guitar can be played, and how many techniques there are to be learnt.

say jk rn

99%hard work
