I think the average person listening to this doesn't realize the dedication and hard work it takes to get to this level of playing the guitar. This gentleman sits here for more than 13 minutes and plays beautifully and flawlessly, having memorized this very long and difficult piece. His fingers glide over the frets seemingly effortlessly. What a magnificent performance. Bravo, sir, bravo!!!!

"The Chaconne is one of the most wonderful, incomprehensible pieces of music. On a single staff, for a small instrument, the man writes a whole world of the deepest thoughts and the most powerful feelings. If I were to imagine how I might have made, conceived the piece, I know for certain that the overwhelming excitement and awe would have driven me mad." -- Brahms

As a musician and guitarist of 25+ years, I can truly say this is a completely perfect performance of this music. I spent a few years taking a crack at this particular tune and I never came close to this level. This guy is a true master of classical guitar and he plays Bach the way it should be played. Salut to you, sir!

Here I am years later, growing old, listening this performance over and over. It is your fault. Congratulations.

I sit stunned and humbled by two great men, one of whom rests in peace, yet lives on through the other ...

This could be the single greatest classical guitar performance on the internet. This incredible piece of music and the beyond flawless almost not to be believed playing of this man. The acoustics of the church, gentle vibrato on notes and chords, dynamics, make the music shimmer and breathe. Thank you so much for sharing this with the world !!!

The best guitar version of Bach's Chaconne on the planet ever. Thank you John for your sublime art!

[benj]

the kind of guitarist difficult to find on a beach

[nickrobinson]

The only people that can find a fault with this impeccable Bach interpretation are either superior guitar players (I sincerely doubt it) or they are green with envy because they will never get to play like this... I love the sound, the tone on that guitar is priceless... beautifully phrased and captures the mood with absolute certainty. Thanks for sharing!

Every time I listen to this I want to give it another thumbs-up. I can't so I'll just say thank you again.

Bach's music is eternal. Endlessly interpreted and reinterpreted.

[edwardmontoya]

This recording is a gift from a talented and uncompromising artist. I've played this recording in my busy kitchen (restaurant). Everyone shut up and listened. Doesn't matter what you normally listen to this piece on guitar stops me and most regular humans dead in our tracks. Your recording should be required for all DMAs and freshmen music theory majors.

This performance demonstrates the excellence of the player as well as the excellence of the guitar as the musical instrument.

[cliffhughes]

Bach's compositions are miraculous in their boundless invention, intricacy and mathematical precision. And yet they move the strong to tears and make the lover sigh with their sublime melody and delicate beauty. It makes me glad to be alive, but I also want to hear this music when I die. This is a flawless interpretation, well worthy of the greatest composer of all.

How can a man write such music? How can another man play it so gracefully, taking our emotions up and down as if we were leaves in the wind. This is the gral of the music, the very essence of it, whether it is classical, pop or electro, they share the same roots with different levels of mastering and skill.

Sitting here with my beloved dying cat on my lap and listening to this most beautiful sound and just bawling. Thank you sir for this video. Astounding beauty.

[Guitarwizardjoinme]

Now that is what a classical guitar should sound like. Sublime.

[demzunoplayer]

Listened to many, this is still the best. The best sense of harmony in the music. Others lose this in the quest for speed.
