I think that it has become very obvious, that because of this young man; the rubric has been reconfigured. I say with all honesty that I do not believe I have ever witnessed a more pure display and expression of feeling, technical ability and unpretentious giftedness. If this young man is not the best....then the best has not yet surfaced which could be. After all, where was Matteo 7-10 years ago. It is all different now. I cannot listen to anyone else again the same way.

Matteo that has to be a song for the next album. That is a beautiful passage.

[rchiefari]

One of the sweetest solos I've heard in my life.

[lllULTIMATEMASTERlll]

This guy is seriously one of the best guitarists in the world. Like what the hell.

[gdfswonder]

Today, if I had the first pick in the guitarist draft, I'm going with Matteo. He covers every genre with impeccable speed, clarity, phrasing, and soul.

[AlbertoGuitarrista]

Mr. Mancuso is so young, and already deserves a tribute. I have no words to describe what he transfers with his guitar. True emotion, outstanding technique. A whole complete guitarist and musician. Simply amazing, unbelievable. Thank God I was suggested to watch (and most importantly to listen to) these videos.

[jupiterlegrand]

There are guys that transcend technique and even the instrument itself: Bach, Beethoven, Liszt, Chopin, Bird, Art Tatum, Jaco, Jeff Linsky, Yamandu Costa and Matteo Mancuso. He is right there with the heaviest of company. Beyond great.

I`m listening to this solo again and again and again... It`s the technique at the service of pure melody, extremely clean .. makes me dream...

[Vitimk]

Enormous...As Vai himself said, the future of electric guitar is safe with musicians like you. Keep on the good work !!

[lotusmanb]

Very few guitar players can shred a fast climbing arpeggio and stick the climax high note long enough for a nice long vibrato. Flawless and satisfying to listen to this master of the strings. I can only imagine the thousands of hours practicing to get this good.

Past language...è un brano che continuo ad ascoltare decine di volte di seguito e non riesco a smettere...gli è uscito direttamente dall'anima!!! Questo ragazzo è magico...il Re Mida della chitarra...ogni tasto che pigia diventa armonia e melodia pura!!!

[michaelb.]

Another masterpiece from the master.
I think I just shed a tear ...

[jmatthews]

I’ve watched a million of his vids and am still consistently blown away by every single one. 🤯🤯

[omarperez]

I’ve seen and heard the best, Matteo IS the best, no doubt a genius.

[giamo]

Amazing playing. Everyone looks at Matteo right hand while I am hooked by the left. Right hand fingers technique is functional to the speed of left hand fingers.

[consulentecomunicazionestr]

Matteo demonstrates as always his incredible eclettism. No jazz here, no fusion. Not strange scales or arpeggios.
"Only" a pop rock solo.
But what a class, what a feel, what a expressive performance!
Music flows so naturally from his brain to his fingers...bending at 0.56 makes me crazy!
But technique is only one of the aspects of his PURE ART.

È solo qualche mese che ti ho scoperto, ma se potessi rinascere vorrei essere capace quanto te a regalare emozioni. Tu SUONI la chitarra!!! Complimenti.

[MusicMotivator]

Soul soaring on wings of musical angels.

[ES]

Those wide intervals that occasionally pop up in the fast scalar runs are so gorgeous. The power of 9-finger playing.

[Howenow]

My first time hearing this. Absolutely sublime. Thanks, MM!
