He came to my university on Thursday and unfortunately I couldn't go to his concert the next day )': But I had the opportunity to interview him the day before for our school newspaper. He was very humble and expressive when he was talking. Really a great guy to meet :)
I just had a mid-life crisis. This is the best piece of music that I've pissed myself to in the past 13 decades. Where are all the bands today? It's a shame that music had to be censored. Praying for forgiveness, Kate Bizkit
I personally can't hear enough! I hope R.G.-F. get his old percussionist back. The chemistry was incomparable. And this Arcoluz album is absolutely the best ever.
mr. Renaud Garcia Fons, thank you for sharing your music and excellent performance to the world on RU-vid. you're an inspiration to the music and bass community. Now, i will look for more of your music. peace out...
A nice display cabinet over what could be done with a counter bass if you posses some creative imagination. Renaud has just that and could be said to have reinvented the instrument, suddenly it became multipurpose. We are talking about one of the greater musicians on the planet. #renaudgarcia
Maginfique, magnifique, MAGNIFIQUE !!!!!!!!!! J'ai eu le bonheur de le voir, lors d'un festival, l'été dernier : sa virtuosité au service d'une inspiration (d'inspirations ?), et d'une musicalité m'a envoûté ...
Hello, this is from the DVD "Arcoluz", actually a CD with a free DVD from the same concert. Go buy one! 100% worth it. Also see renaud-garcia-fons website, (com) in the video-section: first song "Aqua Jan" amazing!!!!
Précision : This was directed by Nicolas Dattilesi who also directed the DVD SOLO "The Marcevol Concert" released in 2012 and produced by ENJA et KOALA Prod…
this is AWESOME!!! and who do I see on percussion but none other than Negrito Trassant-Crocco! miss him on the Gipsy Kings but he isn't doing too shabbily at all! :)
I play the double bass in a musical school in Poland. first time when i heared Legendes it was exactly that what i was thinking about. i always thought i dont need to be very good teoretically because to make a song i need couple sounds in good harmonic, but that what mister Garcia-Fons is doing needs a very very good technic and somethimes its so fast. thank you very much for this music. i have some ideas and maybe one day i will show you this project. jackthecase
he is playing a 5 string bass. that last string is the smaller addition. im not sure if he is in solo tuning or standard, which would make a difference in the sound.
I wonder if the video editor intended to cut away from Renaud Garcia Fons at the exact moment when I most wanted to watch him. How frustrating not to be able to watch his left hand when he starts going crazy at 4:15!
It appears that Renaud is performing at the International Society of Bassist convention in Oklahoma in June. Does anybody know if he's doing any other gigs in the U.S.?
You show you don't understand words, even if you do understand music. Read more carefully, pay attention to the words. They, too, have meaning, my dear Cocolino.
Astounding!! Why did the ridiculous videographer not stay on Renaud, especially during the feature?! Exasperating for people who want to watch technique. All those ridiculous fragmented views. Grrr.
