The legend has that the performer pays someone to cough so that the recital sounds legit and down to earth...

The only disappointing thing about this performance is the tiny audience. Dude deserves more people!

[nbnguitar]

No brilliant recital would be complete without coughing....:(

[victorfachini]

his hands are like a ballet dancer, moving with such artistic feeling

[claudiaypaz]

In Prelude III the nuances, the extreme dynamics achieved are remarkable. In this concert Marcyn is demanding maximum response from the instrument - at times it feels like the strings will refuse to give what he is asking for and then he pulls back - t
the dialogue is breathtaking.

[sahilagrawal]

Ah, I love those coughs. Please tell the man to stop playing, I came specifically for those coughs.

[claudiaypaz]

A great interpreter will give you insight into the composer's intention. A great musician will take you through the gamut of emotions that the guitar is capable and more. Marcin plays with such enigmatic energy here that the guitar seems to strain to equal the intensity and just when you think it can give no more, Marcin with the slightest of touch coos the guitar back to the purest of vibration. Each time I listen it seems I have reached a better understanding of why the guitar is such an incredible instrument. Thank you Marcin for your discipline and for stretching the possible.

Fantástica interpretação, a melhor de todas que ouvi. Parabéns

[violetac.]

Puedo estar horas viendo sus interpretaciones, bellisima en los preludios, puede ser mágicamente dulce y pasar inmediatamente a lo fuerte y dramatico!! excelente guitarrista!!!

[stevegartshore]

loved the prelude no 2. Best version I've heard - much more subtle. Inspired me to keep working on it.

[carinhansel]

die beste Interpretation, die ich bis jetzt gehört

[ArthurSallesOficial]

The E Major part on Prelude 1 was beautiful!! Really amazing the way you use the order of your fingers on right hand. Congrats!

[bluestripetiger]

What brand is his guitar? It seems a little smaller than most guitars i'm used to seeing-- (maybe it's just the camera angle?). Absolutely breathtaking performance. His fingers just seem to do ballet on the strings. His technique is remarkable--hours and hours of practice behind the scenes to prepare just for this performance. Not only does he have the mechanics down pat but he shows an incredible sensitivity to the quality and feel of the sound he is actually producing. Remarkable musicianship.

[sargijapunk]

Great playing and great recording as well. Bot audio & video.

[KLNCH]

Loads of examples of this (and I have played prelude number one for nearly fifty years now), but with its superb use of dynamics this is the best rendition I've encountered thus far.

[eleonoramoraes]

👏👏👏Perfeição. O coração pulsa e vibra, alento de paz.

[ramongouveia]

Muito bom! Honrou o nome de Villa-Lobos.

[martinbickertonguitarist]

So musical and precise playing... how does he stay so relaxed?!
