[@TickleMeChelmno]

Heavy metal really are the keepers of the flame not just of this sort of musical talent from long ago but also poetry. Kind of ironic

[@Maxim.Nazarenko]

I remember watching this video in 2007 and it was incredible. And still is.

[@eiffel65isawesome]

I bet I could play this to some metalhead who didn't know classical music and they'd think it was a legit metal solo. This totally demonstrates how similar the writing structures for metal and classical are, and how all of the good metal writers have a lot of classical influence. Awesome.

[@paulcuddy76]

The point is, the majority of metalheads WOULD know. Show it to the pop music lovers however, and they'd dismiss it as 'noise'.

I remember back then in early youtube, people are arguing that this is fake and just being dubbed. Alexi, you're one hell of a legend. Thank you for your music.

[@not_a_toaster]

You can tell these guys are talented because of their ability to play classical music on an electric guitar and make it sound like the original. You rock Alexi and Roope!

rip wildchild :/ u are missed around the world ANY day any time

[@rolosworld1410]

I have years watching this video. Since I was 16. Im 30 now. Currently at work blasting this. R.I.P.!!!!

Alexis music was always so damn important to me. Throughout middle school it was just one of the few things that got me through life. I’m already missing him. Shit breaks my heart.

[@AmericanWrathchild]

I'll never forget seeing COB on Gigantour. To this day the best live guitarist I've ever seen Thank you, Wildchild. Rest In Power.

Vivaldi was te first metal head, I've been saying this for years, this is pure perfection

[@imyourgodmachine]

Children of Bodom combine metal and classical styles awesomely. Love these guys!

This is honestly the best guitar playing I've ever seen. These two had/have talent beyond compare. Literally how do you make two guitars make those noises??

This is absolutely mindblowing and out of this world beautiful. This band consists of awesome musicians that are truly dedicated to what they are doing. The synchronisity between them shows, and each one of their songs is a master piece.

This is the reason why classical music can still be cool!

[@cihad2003]

they hold their instrument like a classical guitar

[@well...456]

When he came out with this, it was like he brought classical music back in the best way possible

[@chuckwright3754]

If these guys- and I'll throw in bands like Dimmu Borgir and Opeth- had lived in the 16th, 17th, 18th centuries- they would be composing the same music as the great classical composers, and vice versa.

[@Just_A_Dude]

+Cleatus Van Damne Exactly. I came to the conclusion while listening to Winter that it would be metal as fuck if played on an electric guitar. Found the Dark Moor cover minutes later and confirmed my theory. Not found a bad cover yet.

[@JVRottweil]

These guys rock because of the geniuses of the 16th-18th centuries

[@MB-rc8ie]

No, not really. They are fine bands, but really not even close to the musical masterpieces of classical composers.

[@irsyadk]

i think they can play even faster than this tempo for sure. they are shredders after all. it's actually harder to maintain a steady slow tempo like this, which makes this even more amazing

[@925metalhead]

Wow alexi even makes classical sound badass

[@RangerDangerVideos]

when they came to minneapolis in october, me and my friend were the only people at the concert who got to meet them! We talked with alexi and roope for like ten minutes! best thing ever

This is from before symphonies, Its from a series of concertos called the "four seasons" written by Antonio Vivaldi. This is the third movement of summer and it sounds as awesome as ever!!!

Fantastic. That's what I love about COB's music most, when they have parts of classical music in it. The Magic Flute tune in "Hatebreeder" gives me goosebumbs every time. Is this on any CD of them? I assume, they didn't do versions of the othre three parts, too?

This was the first thing I saw about alexi. I instantly fell in love with his playing and cob is still my favorite band

[@ShredST]

"What jazz musicians did was alter the chords that were used in blues and classical music to create interesting and unique harmony" What about the other aspects of jazz? Jazz has different instrumentation, doesn't use many of the forms that classical music uses, has a rhythmic style that's quite different from most classical music, and focuses on improvisation. Just because Jazz uses a lot of the music theories that have been developed by classical composer, doesn't make it classical.

@BrandonShayMusic True words. Classical is simply the purest, most sophisticated form of music. But some of the artists within the melodic death metal genre are among the best musicians/songwriters you will ever find outside of the classical genre.
