The GUITAR SOLO that BROKE YouTube, Guitarist Reacts to Amin Toofani Solo 

those were Andalusian cadence chords

@@champions8663 My brother at practice 30 years ago. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zyyqOUdRfS4.html Cooking chips in the back ground. 😄

Just strong fundamentals and being able to determine notes through pitch (usually experience). Pitch is important because sometimes you’ll have diminutive notes or something else in a chord or arpeggiated phrases. Usually lead notes are in an upbeat which can help you tell which time signature someone is playing in. You know the cadence and the chord progression with whatever wonky notes they put in and you can sight read something like this fairly quickly If you want to learn more there are tons of courses teaching violin, which I think is the easiest beginner instrument to understand things like “what’s an octave… what do these notes sound like…” etc and then you learn basic music theory and you can move onto guitar tablature. One book I recommend everyone learning guitar pick up, or even if you want to learn about guitar and not play is the Guitar Grimoire by Adam Kadmon.

​@@GodKiller97violin is not an easy beginner instrument lol. Might be one of the hardest. Piano is much easier to play and learn music theory.

​@@GodKiller97A(((((((((((((((((((((((((([8!

Or sell ur soul ;)

That's not awesome really

@@alexander.d144 So do you think saying this is AWESOME?

@@alexander.d144 you do it then

Hehe i learnt it in 1 week

Too fani🤣

@@Hugh_Manitee lmao bruh 🤣🤣🤣

Ofcourse he is not as he is not professional

He's kind, that's why he said that, tell an average guitarist to play that

But he is a very expert guitarist...

@@namsailavnai9611 defining the best is hard but he is certainly one of the best

@@abhinavmishra9323 that's not how it works

Ahhh cool, thanks Meysam.

Not to mention the huge influence that the Moorish occupation had on the culture, art, architecture, and music of Spain. I give you Flamenco!

wa wa bhai

Isn't he a Pakistani?

No wonder

for real?

@@aaroncarr-mackay2457 yes. And he went to Harvard.

Wish my brain worked like that…or do I?

@@RobertSmith-eb9xu Do you?

I have watched more of amin. The man has a ridiculously high talent level.

I think also in Urdu!

The guy is pakistani.

That was really bad performance

Niga that was really bad

@@MrAhtisham420 he is Iranian I’m sure

It blew up because his presen and rendition is absolutely beautiful

It blew up bcs there were not many youtube guitarists showing skills back then

It blew up because of luck and things falling right

Flamenco guitarists also i think often gets attention because lot of people in mant countries dont really listen that genre much or see people playing, but then they suddenly see someone play flamenco well on some random video, and its just such distinctive style

not so at all, some forms are very deep and soulfull others are bright and fast

He can't play tremolo

I’m indian and I guess, we all should have an accent don’t we.

@@cardcode8345 he's Iranian

That's not middle eastern music. It was inspired by rajasthani gypsy music and is now played mostly in spain

Did they move Spain?

Is flamenco Spanish

Iiiiiiiiihiiiiiiiiihhhhhhiiihhihhihhhhhihhhhiihh 🤣hh

Ihhhhhhhhhghhhhhhhhh 🤣hhihihhhhhh

H 🤣hhhihhh 🤣hhhihhhh 🤣hihh 🤣hhh 🤣h

Some consider many artists elitists and gatekeepers. While I appreciate trying to keep some level of skill or ability as a measure of competence, as you say - it's an art, and art is appreciated by the receiver. This is why we have 'pop' music. It wasn't made for those with a high level of musicianship . . . . .

music is not a performance art, music is everything that make a sound and a follow a rythm in a pleasurable way. no matter if there are people or only you playing. its still music.

Like when I listen to a tech genre. Yeah the people play fast and accurate, now if only they could make it actually sound pleasant.

Says the obvious non musician and moron.

incredible..? ya nahh.. you clearly dont play guitar. His chops were steady, smooth and powerful due to his right hand but his left hand was very dirty and missed a lot of clean notes and transitions a true great guitar player would hit. And sorry , if you know anything about flamenco arrangements this was a pretty comon chord progression The flashy power picking technique he uses is a distraction for the untrained ears to marvel over (i know, i used to do the same easy tricks to get the chicks)

Yu go train hard or yu dishoner famiry !

Probably how he blows off steam. Channels that energy in all the right ways.

Correct👍👍

under rated

🤣🤣🤣

The techniques are very easy but what really impressive is that conposition

isnt he pakistani ??

He is indian amin his name and toofani means very fast

Đèàď pòóĺ 😅😅😅firstly we have toofani in persian too ... it means like tornado .... secondly he mentioned before in twitter that he js Iranian😅❤️❤️❤️

@@aliabbasmoghadam4653 yes a lot of hindi/urdu words are borrowed from Iran

@@eadpool9648 exactly

Yeah, he mainly improvises over a few basic chords/barre chords. It's his right hand technique that makes the song special

It’s called being a beginner in flamenco music

developed right hand technique? did you see his makeshift tremelo? that flamenco strum is very simple btw. practice finger picking and or classical for a couple months and it comes super easy. people that know how to click their nails on a table in a sequence, never have played guitar, could do it in a couple days. .

Jelly bro...doesnt look good

never thought of that! Cool. I'm currently in the backward playing days (hopefully not for too long)

It did look like a small guitar at the beginning, but I'm guessing it was a normal sized one 🤣

@D Doherty I am 199 sm. In my hands dreadnought looks like classic guitar.

playing Gratitude is not hard but composing Gratitude is hard...

Lol I'm pro guitar player 🤡 sounds weird to say that yourself

@@sagesmoon8422 well, it's my profession

Really mam all u need to practice is the flamenco rumba and the andalucian chord progression... More than half of the song is done

@@sr.castro1031 Playing crazy train & thunderstruck doesn’t make you a pro

Don't even mention manitas de plata he was a genuine gypsy,this kid gets nowhere near him as a guitarist,and mantas was not a genuine flamenco player

My mother gave an album of his "Tribute to Bardot"

@@jonadams6846 bro chill TF. He said for similar style. Because it's a viral video not all of us for musicians

@@gnanasabaapatirg7376 Yea I do get a little protective of my love for flamenco,having been struggling to play this genre of music for many years,to me it comes from deep in the soul,playing it takes me to a place I cannot explain,it's magical and painfully all in one,yes I did have the pleasure of once meeting Manitas a showman and a very humble man all in one

I have respect for Manitas de plata but you can't Say that. The real genius in flamenca was paco de Lucia. He could play all the palo 's flamencos.not manita. He play wth the great flamenco singer camaron de la Isla. Not manita,.he Plays with aldi meola for many years and Aldi had always said with John mc Laughlin that paco was the greatest flamenco guitarist of all time.joaquin Rodrigo himselfs said that Paco was the best player of his concerto de Aranjuez that he never heard. I think you better listen and see the album and documentary of paco de Lucia 's carrear. You will learn a lot of things very important about what you don't know and don't understand about flamenco music. Just listen to paco's music( entre dos aguas, potro de Rabia y miel buleria with camaron de la Isla, el panuelo ,almoraima, reflero de Luna taranta..etc..) and don't forget the greatest old player like Nino Ricardo, sabicas, Ramon Montoya etc.. i'm sorry but Manitas is juste a kid in comparution of those great guitarist of History of flamenco..

He’s not talented.

@@hitthecouch you would know 😂😂 your being a professor of music lol

It's literally not impressive . Sorry any first year student could do this

His right hand its so fluid it takes years of practice

@@gotama570 no it doesn't. Seriously listen to literally any gypsy kings song for better. Any random song

Its the only thing in the song of real difficultly. His strumming, minus the slaps, Rasgueado, is not that difficult to learn on nylon strings with fingers, but Andrew Friedberg had zero chance of replicating it on steel strings with a pick in his hand. Nylon string guitars have a different skill set.

@@williamhogge5549 getting the slaps in is easier than you'd think. Once you've got the strumming pattern down integrating finger slaps and/or wrist thumbs is fairly straight forward.

​@@williamhogge5549 i did it on steel string

I was going to say something similar. I've been playing 37 years. He's okay. There are many players that make him look like somewhat of an amateur.

Thank God someone else who know the truth about this guy. YES WHAT HE PLAYED IS "NOT" HARD TO PLAY. I AGREE 100% WITH YOU...

Looking forward to all of your videos playing better than him.

@@saurabhsonic take a chill pill and stop wasting my time

@@saurabhsonic woah you really got them there, really took the wind outta their sails, with your great clap back 👏

how is it interestinf

Start of the piece is an homage to C de Aranjuez in a lower octave

Paco de Lucia was one of the best Spanish flamenco 💃 guitar players. He’s a legend. Can you please react to his music ?

@@ksenijajemensek6126 but paco is not popolist he is not for ordinery people

Was a best flamenco guitar player. RIP

the music itself may not be that hard, but it's his personal technique that is tought to replicate

@@cranjusmcballer It looks like, but it's not.

@@cranjusmcballer Now, this really is difficult to play Rubén Levaniegos - Fandango (Guitarra Paco Rey) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2TsdQmLoBNY.html

A few weeks?? Lol yea dream on. That’s intermediate level at least, several years practice. Not greatest, but very good.

@@cyberjujo4413 With the proper technique and training, yes weeks.

That's because he can see the chords in the video.

...still just strumming 3 chords in a fun pattern while stretching for some single notes

Yes its practice, can you perform on any instrument? or do you know any better than Mr Toofani? if yes then upload and let the world compare, or else keep your Rupee in your pocket, you indians make some outrageous statements with out evidence or source, most pretentious on the planet.

@@ravis.9937 not indian and I actually think this guy is exceptionally good. So why the hate???

@@ravis.9937 what he meant was people think he is the best guitarist, which actually isn't true there are a lotttttttttt of guitar players who can do that, now most guitarists believe Marcin patrazalek to be the best.

@@ravis.9937 Dimebag Darrell. Checkmate, brah

Look he wrote this piece himself. Definitely deserved love

@Ed M chord progression is easy but right hand technique may be hard to get down and is tiring

@Ed M practice flamenco picking

@Ed M I play some flamenco, and I can assure you that you can play the same piece that guy is playing in a few weeks. It's not that difficult as it seems

+1 to that. The RH technique can be learned in a few weeks to a few months depending on natural ability. I'm kinda shit at guutar/ukulele and it took me around 2 to 3 months. It is however a very basic skill for flamenco style and definitely considered to be something you learn as a beginner. He had a couple little flair moves in there which showed that he's either a bit more talented than average or has been playing at this level for a while.

Actually it's not that hard. Real guitarists would know this already. If you want something really hard then try learning Neon by John Mayer.

My thought was the title of the video.

Wow

I don't think that is true.

Dude he is dead

Flamenco Is a technique, It's often used with bassists while they Slap and pop as another example. Clearly he is entertaining and Working a crowed while playing guitar. I don't get why people think Music is a special club. If you aren't learning anything new on Guitar you are doing it wrong. I know this because I play myself. Are you lacking musicianship? It's great. I give it an A, I have came across A* in that style I enjoyed it.

@@kunaljaju646 hopefully, dude's cocky af

Really

Do u know Marcin Patrzalek?

@@chhayankgupta9056 No, but I just looked him up, he is good, but Alejandro is more unique.

Stevie Ray Vaughn, Roy Clark. Nuff said.

@@starkenterprises2371 Not my cup of tea.

This isn't traditional Flamenco, it's sort of using a Rumba palo(one of the styles in Flamenco), but it isn't technically Flamenco. Also, the guitar follows the dancer/singer, not the other way around. And the castanets are not a Flamenco instrument, you're confusing it with classical Spanish dancing, which is not the same as Flamenco - which is a Spanish Gitano(gypsy) music, with no connection to Morocco or Moroccan music. People hear the Phrygian mode and become cinfused.

Flemenco is said to be spanish now but Flemenco is associated to the Romani people and you know where Romani people come from right

@Koushik Vemuri there's a lot of Rmani influence all through Spain and several other Latin American countries including mine (Argentina) just saying

@@koushikvemuri3130 Don't confuse Spanish Gitanos with other Romani. Gitanos have been in Spain for centuries and have mixed in with Spanish genetics. Flamenco comes from Gitano folk culture, but is very much a part of Spanish culture now.

@@ericaarcas8161 it's mostly in the south of Spain, in places like Seville, Granada, and Cadiz, but generally all through the south.

Nylon string acoustic designed for classical/flamenco style players. Can't see the brand though, sorry.

Hey, thanks a lot for the reply, I was thinking he had some steel string ones as the sound was so good. I guess I ha Be no excuse now as mine is classical too😞😞😅

I'm definitely sure he didn't always feel good life comes with it's challenges this was him overcoming and being thankful for it
