Rick is true pro interviewer. Always let's his guests talk, never interrupts, never directs the interview back to himself, and doesn't compete with his guest. I always enjoy his interviews and always come away feeling I learnt a lot about his guest.

That's funny ^^ Reading this reminds me of the time many moons ago learning guitar and I had a friend with a genuine Vai JEM beauty of a guitar. He went to get some rest and left me with it and the Vai video tape of Passion and Warfare on. The way I went from ecstatic to disheartened within the span of about a minute as I realized the depth of the void between my skill level and the quality of the other elements in the equation. Life has such a way of dealing out punches at times.

Now if he takes up composition and can create revolutionary music... Then we've witnessed something even more spectacular. He seems to always be studying and pushing himself - I wouldn't be surprised to see him create something amazing one day.

This interview was a superb example of the mastery of two crafts; illuminating the genius of a rare musician such as Matteo, and the threading of the needle of historical context by another master from an earlier generation, who, avoiding grandstanding and control, allows the interviewee to make and reveal discoveries to all of us who are fortunate enough to apprehend both ends of the spectrum of the history that is being made.

Rick, wonderful , as always. Matteo is so lovely. His knowledge and explanation of how and why is fascinating. He logged in crazy hours and the precision …… Thank you, Rick. Let’s not forget.. Matteo eloquently explained it all in a second language. Wow

@scottbranch5603 4 месяца назад

excellent point! Here i was thinking his Italian accent is not that bad!

@alveydoug 4 месяца назад

His playing is articulate and so is his ability to explain every detail. So young and a master who is still learning.

Wow. Great interview Rick. First I've heard of Matteo. Holy smokes ! What a talent. Such a gentleman and so well spoken...all the best to this young man !!

@richboshart1201 4 месяца назад

Not only has this young man achieved mastery of his instrument, but he’s achieved mastery of a language other than his own. He speaks English better than I do, and I’m a native speaker. Rick’s interview skills are off the charts, as usual. The future of this instrument is in great hands.

@SudsRegal 4 месяца назад

I totally agree. His vocal articulation, communication and language is as free flowing and precise as his immaculate playing. What an immensely talented and inspiring person!

Actually it's not that strange in European countries to study 1 or 2 foreign languages, even if languages is not your main field of studies

@lanzicavalli6453 4 месяца назад

@@stefanovarisco9121 I'm italian, and what you say is true. However, studies are often not so deep and accurate. Matteo surely study also english himself, because now is necessary for his international career

@dudeymcduderson 3 месяца назад

Not only has he mastered the guitar but he's more eloquent in a second language than i am in my first language. And to top it off he seems like a really nice chap.

What a brilliant, humble young man. Does the whole thing in English, knows all the theory, rips into effortless demo licks, draws on so many styles with an incredible memory and probably perfect pitch. Great interview.

Great interview, Rick! I love the questions that you asked, they really brought out a greater understanding of Matteo's technique and way of thinking. Matteo simply blows me away. It is an emotional experience just to watch him play Falcon Flight. He is truly one of the most gifted guitarists of my lifetime, and yet his genuine humility shines through in this interview. One can tell that he was raised well by supporting and loving parents. Matteo's debut album The Journey is a must-have in any guitar lover's collection.

I'm floored by this. I've never heard of Matteo before today. He's just beyond amazing. I LOVE that this is such a technical guitar interview, this is never shared. Thanks Rich and thank you Matteo, I'm now a fan and I feel like this is a gift THANK YOU!

@paulrichards3928 3 месяца назад

'phenom' is right. Kudos Rick Beato, great interview Where Matteo's playing is headed is exciting on its own. Matteo Mancuso, is more than intelligent enough to adapt. Learning, unlearning, and relearning. Standing on the shoulders of giants, is a metaphor that fits. That takes a level of humility that is refreshing to see.

@michelereali_ 3 месяца назад

I heard this guy live in Milan last May, and I was speechless. Matteo's practice is extremely close to classical guitar's, and the right hand technique is just the tip of the iceberg. I'm talking about his way of preparing the left hand as well, his fingers' independency and his conception of tone. Mbare daje tutta.

@user-zt9el7iq8v 4 месяца назад

Matteo is simply unreal & beyond words. I agree with so many of the comments as well, regarding not only his mind boggling technique, his incredibly mature & eclectic approach to playing, writing, and most of all, his continued learning, but especially his maturity and humility. It’s just impossible not to like the guy even if you aren’t into his music. It is truly a lesson for almost anybody in any craft to know that there are people with that level of discipline, dedication, and passion, who still maintain such humility and search respect for others. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Only a few things in my life have dropped my jaw like the first time I saw Matteo; seeing Guthrie Govan at NAMM, the first time I heard Cliffs of Dover, the first time I heard Eruption. Matteo is up there for me, absolutely mindblowing talent. I cannot wait to see where he takes it.

Bravo Matteo, le ore e ore di lavoro duro ti stanno premiando; te lo meriti. Complimenti anche per il you inglese, che è eccellente per un italiano e fa un ottima impressione. Continua a lavorare duro e rimani umile che c’è sempre qualcosa da imparare. Stai scrivendo una bella storia. In bocca al lupo. Gaetano
