Insane cheography on the arrangament, insane sound and technique.Its awesome for my ear. KEEP GOING.YOU RE THE BEST WOMEN GUITARIST IN THE WORLD!

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thank you!!!

[@ShredHeadJHJ]

Maybe technically the best female electric guitarist, and definitely the one with the best vibrato.

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thank you!

[@johnmcminn9455]

Much more interesting than most shredders . real virtue and musicianship. Light and dreamy or as heavy as you like . So glad there are at least 4 CDs of Alexandra

[@rodneyriddell6478]

Im a 66 year old man who has know quite a few guitarists in his life and I think you are amazing with so much potential give them hell. and thank you for reacting to me goodbye and good luck I know how hard the music ( male dominated ) industry is XXX

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thank you so much!!!

[@musemuser777]

Excellent progressions with arpeggios and dissonant chords. Definitely a well written and performed piece. Probably the best female guitarist around due to performance and writing. 💯 🔥🎸🔥

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thanks a lot! I am glad that you appreciate it :)

[@siddumirai8378]

Wow simply amazing

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thank you!!!

[@omarkawan]

She has several albums on Spotify. Absolutely amazing

[@KRASIPARVANOV]

I have listened this piece about 500 times and every time I listen this one I I remain deeply thoughtful about the multiple layers inside. About the vitruosity required to compose, play, record and master all that great-great music. My moments in these "memories are on the 3:07 - 3:19! For me this piece remains one of the most wonderful models in this genre. Many many thanks for posting that, Alexandra Zerner! And God Bless You!

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

+MR GIBS Thank you for the support! I am happy, that you like the piece so and you're finding the layers and the reasons I wrote this piece in this particular way. I've never do random things in my compositions - every note has its place for a reason and I am glad, that you can see that :)

[@GeoMatRay]

Marty Friedman needs to hear this; he should be flattered! Especially for the first 2 minutes, the influence of Introduction is profound... You emulate the style so well yet keep the melodies orginal. Great work!

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thank you! As a matter of fact, Marty has heard this and some of my other works and he likes them a lot :)

[@GeoMatRay]

That put a big smile on my face! Congrats!!

[@mrjoepher2joe]

This song rocks! I love all your albums and the artwork! you are a musical genius! Продължавайте да се люлеете!

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thank you very much!!!

[@Stephen_M.]

I've said it before and I'll say it again, One of the best videos on KZbin! You've managed to blend an Oriental scale with a hard rock feel, perfectly. Your speed and accuracy are only rivaled by the beautiful flavor of this piece! Simply amazing!

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thank you so much!

[@MANUELMARTINEZ-jl2od]

Amazing i'm your fan!!!

[@johnmcminn9455]

I love the way this music is put together. I think back to the winter i learned the song perpetual burn, and most of paganini 5th caprice , and how it was a realization that. Composer Jason Becker had taken the caprice approach to another level because , violin is tuned in 5ths and guitar is 4ths with 6 strings( or 7) , the impetus of guitar has so many other cool things , like 2 octave sweep arpeggios, 3 octave triads, expressive note bending , it is awesome the spirit of that approach is continuing onward

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

I am glad that you like it so much :)

[@CarlosMartinez-wb9rr]

OMG! I'm very impressed with this song, sounds great!!!!

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thank you!

[@collingtech1]

awesome

[@craudebluant]

It's so good to hear good music again. It's nice to see how you play guitar and how to use your technique, how to make music with it. I can hear from your music that you are primarily concerned with music and not with playing technique and love me. Musically you go the right way, you do not need to show anyone how good you are, you can hear that from your music and technically anyway. I wish you a happy new year 2019, health, longevity and much success!

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thank you very much for appreciating my works and my approach! :) Have a wonderful 2019!

[@k-trailblazer]

That sound, popularized by Kitaro , Marty, Jason, and Uli , lives on in Alexandra, and now more modern with 20hz low range i hear in my Beyer Dynamic DT 770s

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thank you!

[@jasmin_v.]

Hello Alexandra. I just listened for the first time to memoirs of a Geisha and I like it very much. You have a good and fast technique with your fingers and a very good timing. Which band is your favorite and your biggest inspiration ? I also think you have a very good and unique sound. It is a mix of hard rock and symphonic rock, with metall too, and I like that very much. Some times your guitar sounds like a guitar mixed with keyboards and it is just so impressive. You are a very good talented musician. Keep on going and keep on rocking girl !

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thank you so much! I've got many inspirations and it's hard for me to pick up just one. See the covers that I do and you will gain some understanding :)

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thank you very much!!!

[@firstdreamwalker]

Yes, it is. And your play really is so accurate, most respect for this! My attention was called by coincidence seeing this in another vid just for seconds....

[@alfredopineda2429]

This song is so amazing, and it´s play by a girl. It´s nice to see that she can play as a Goddess, and also the intro remembers me a kind of Marty Friedman and the half of the song remembers me like Jason Becker... I really like this type of things. Congratulatios and keep creating music like this masterpiece

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thank you very much!!!

[@Adrian_Weiss]

Wow, this is good. Reminds me a lot of Friedman's solo work in parts. Great dark twist after a third. Really cool tone and technique! Great!

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thank you very much, Adrian!!!

[@WernerJLilie]

When it goes from quiet to loud... ...it just blows you away! Just like that line in "Juke Box Hero" says :-)

[@Massimiliano-Fauci]

Alexandra you gave me great joy and emotions in listenings and watching you, I love your composition ! At 3:40 I feel excited! You finally made me decide to start taking guitar lessons.. It's never too late 🙂 Thank you and keep it up ! Ciao from Italy

Not only an incredible player, but also very tasteful composition, sense of melody, and excellent tone. I also love the way the Friedman/Cacophony influences shine through while at the same time being your own and not just a copycat. Mindblowing really!

Скъпа Александра, тази песен кара сърцето ми да лети и танцува през страници от моя живот, спомени от дете до възрастен, не мога да разбера, че не зная твоята музика, и аз съм наистина щастлива и благословена, че открих теб и твоята спираща дъха музика днес!

[@georgespogacich3066]

You put so much feeling in your notes and I just love the slow bends bending into Key.. Great!

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thank you! I think that feeling is essential to playing - without it it would be pointless. I invested a lot of time to practise bendings in tune - recently there was even a comment on facebook that my bends are "too much in tune" :D Of course, certain fans of blues prefer a bit more négligé manner of playing...

[@rolfingerbier]

WOW

[@lz7dplzham862]

[@mtbwill69]

I listen to this track at least twice a day. Trying to listen to others as time allows (oldest to newest) but this is by far the powerful one I have heard yet. Going to have to get this CD i think. Someone commented about a Marty Friedman vibe but I just don't feel it. I do feel a George Lynch influence though. I am a huge Dokken fan solely because George is a god (Don is ok lol) and you are right up there with him to be sure.

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

Thank you very much! Since I am clearly a huge Marty Friedman fan but I am not very familiar to George Lynch's playing, there's no way to be influenced by him more than Marty :)

[@viktorpetrenko5361]

It had been 5 years already but i still return here and listen to it again. Don't you have sheet score/tab of this? Usually to get rid of such an obsession i have to play it. Something like this usually takes me around 60-100 hrs to pick it by ear precisely. In this case it is probably a bit easier, since you've recorded your fingers close, but still...

[@AlexandraZernerRocks]

I am really happy that you like this track so much! Unfortunately, I don't have tabs - it's a very time-consuming thing to transcribe my works and there's almost no interest in such things. You're probably the 4th of the 5th person who asked for tabs of my tracks since I released my first album, which is already more than 6 years ago...
