when a classical guitarist discovers the blues

The 5 Stages of Blues (for a classical guitarist)

In the final stage of the video I played on my new steel string guitar from FURCH that I LOVE! (yellow OM-CR) Check out their guitars here:

I'm a D'addario artist, simply because I LOVE and use their strings (they are the best IMO) check which ones I'm using here:

As someone who studied piano at the conservatory this hit me on a deep level. Classical music turned into something that can feel like a cage. It's like everybody forgot that music heroes like Bach were also great improvisers and learned music theory to then use it to create. And we get raised as mere executors!
But rock, blues and jazz can still provide us the freedom to express the music we have inside

bro just casually dropped "is not death you should fear, is live a inauthentic life" and gone play blues

Watched this while high and did not regret

A masterclass ! You invented a new genre of youtube videos ! "The musical story short" or something like that ! What a banger...

The same thing happened to me. I studied classical guitar for 7 year non completing the conservatory but when I discover music my life changed. It's more powerful for expressing cause blues is what you feel inside either positive either negative. It could sound strange but in many case blues helped me in some depression or failure moment. I take my guitar e play blues.

The level of chill I experience simply observing your right hand technique...astronomical. Giggles and jazzy wiggles, well done

The first time, I heard this video, I thought it was funny, but, now, I understand it's more serious and delivering more sense and feelings that I knew at the beginning.
I appreciate your work, LUCAS, and the way you do it very properly. J'aime beaucoup le fond et la forme de tes productions videos et musicales.

"Pentatonic noodling is something you should only do at home" Omg, I choked on my coffee!

[guitarsolos]

Lucas so commited to the video idea that he locked himself in the basement for real, that's why we haven't seen that much uploads lately. Hats off to you Lucas!

the 999 flipping to 666 actually got me laughing out loud by myself in my room 🤣 well done! this whole thing is amazing!

[NicHeuwGuitar]

Nobody else combines skits and virtuoso level guitar playing that I know of other than Lucas!! Just so unique and amazing!

[Xinbaset]

Humour, virtuosism, story telling and profound message!

[nunosa]

This channel has the best mix of guitar mastery and humor in the whole web

[BiggerThanFrogs]

Thanks Lucas 12brar, one of your best

[lorenzoferretti]

Lucas Brar, your style of sharing knowledge and experiences is definitely unique. Absolutely fantastic musician!

[guilhermebarbosa]

Dude, i was legit invested in this short story

[StrimKIRILL]

I graduated from the conservatory in Russia. The video accurately conveys my fear of classical guitar school. And the strings are expensive(
The video is awesome as always.

That is why I love Eugen Cicero's jazz-classic tunes and wish there was more of it. Generally, fusing styles can have such nice results.
