Debussy - Clair de Lune, Solo for Electric Guitar

[@TantoFaz13]

This world need more electric guitar trnacriptions that aren't crappy metal versions with midi drums

[@chuckandtom1]

A piece composed in 1908, played so beautifully on an instrument unknown at that time. I'm sure audiences in 1908 would have thought an electric guitar as vulgar (if they could conceive of one) and many modern guitarists wouldn't consider studying Debussy. Here they meld so wonderfully. If only the extremists of the world could see the beauty of coming together despite differences. It is not a black and white world in which we exist. This is a small yet wonderful example of what can come from of an open mind that is not afraid to explore, and consider things from another perspective.

KZbin comment when guy play song 🤯🤯🤯

[@FabianoCosta-ei9tr]

Obrigado. ... Ótimas ideias. Mas observe como são as coisas em sua dinâmica e forma(!). Não sei se você sabe,mas Debussy era amigo de Monet, e ambos fizeram cada um ,um trabalho artístico,quando foi inundado um vale para a construção de uma represa,e restava uma velha igreja que foi inundada ao desviarem o curso das águas para aquele lugar.Debussy compôs uma peça musical,e Monet um quadro. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHK5qn56ediAadUsi=Ara0JTcIAoqUuiKp Quanto aos ditos "extremistas" que se referiu, cada um tem sua escala de valores,mas devemos compreender que o valor esta no bom senso em distinguir aquilo que te é pertinente,sem usurpar ou vilipendiar a possibilidade do próximo em suas diferenças,dentro de uma respeitabilidade possível, nessa permuta que possa ocorrer ao relacionar-se com esses aspectos. Sendo Muçulmano, acredito e confio na vibroturgia que atribuo ao meu caráter,e tudo que eu direciono com amor nesse Sagrado torna-se manifesto nos traços da minha personalidade. Surata Al 'Imran, versículo 133: "Apressai-vos em obter a indulgência do vosso Senhor e um Paraíso,cuja amplitude é igual à dos céus e da terra,preparado para os tementes." ... Obrigado pelo som,e pelo comentário. Salam! 🧔😃😉👍🏻☝🏻🙏🏻📖🕋🕌📿✨ kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3Osi3mZfcmjq7csi=BcF_sqkQbflc6pVp

Vulgar lol

[@nekkon1989]

The Telecaster came into existence shortly after though 😂

[@johnfritzjerald4535]

Incredibly well spoken!

[@dirgantaraariyanto2293]

I never heard a telecaster played like that, it's beautiful

[@chazzxt1273]

check out Julian Lage, he sounds a lot like this. Especially 'I'll Be Seein You' live!

[@dahag2996]

Ted Greene, Bill Frisell, Julian Lage, Ed Bickert, Tim Lerch, etc... All Tele jazz players.

[@johnnymccreery4692]

Barry harris has taught me a lot too.

[@RyanMcQuen]

Definitely hearing some Ted Greene here, which is as high of a compliment as you can get on guitar!

[@guylevinberg1093]

Thanks! the guitarist that inspired me for that kinda mood is Bill Frisel.

[@kidconsumer2411]

This brings back the memories of the olden days around the 1910s when me and my buddy, who is unfortunately not with us anymore, used to sneak out of the work in our factories to go listen Claude DeShlash play this masterpiece of a song, good times.

[@zachturner1242]

Obviously the chords are unreal but honestly the cadence and carefulness in every strum is absolutely insane

[@yoadknux]

why does this guy have just one video? crazy. should be illegal to have this much talent and so few videos

[@stevestann595]

KZbin algorythms favor shit content, as you can see this art is quite the extreme opposite

[@The_InfantMalePollockFrancis]

@@stevestann595 he is asking why he has ONE video, not why youtube shows him just this video.

[@stevestann595]

[@michaellorah9051]

I can honestly say, I like it better that way. The guy drops one masterpiece for us, then bounces. It's how legends are born.

[@TJ_Silvester]

Best electric version of Clare De Lune i've ever heard. Will watch 100 times to learn, if that's what it takes :)

[@cristiangs]

Beautiful

[@weizhongxianfumariobeans7788]

Agreed

[@luxurybagel5857]

Did u do it?

[@pierrebouyer]

Sean Angus Watson did a beautiful one as well if I remember well

[@BryanMetcalf-ld7cb]

It's amazing. Also, check out some live videos of Paul Bielatowicz playing it live. Saw him play with carl palmer legacy a few weeks ago. It was mesmerizing, youll love it.

[@gamotsa]

I never could have imagined Zlatan Ibrahimovic would sooth my soul with his guitar playing! Bravo!

[@guylevinberg1093]

Best use of a Tele since Jeff Buckley. Absolutely transcendent - thank you for this intimate recording

Was checking that too, a Tele so well known for playing classical music. A fine effort by the man.

[@ze-prestooo]

I knew electric guitar could sound like this, so I just had to search it. Not disappointed.

[@mj3299]

Sometimes KZbin offers you the opportunity to see and hear things that are so magnificent it is beyond belief. This rendition of Clair de Lune is so beautiful, it touches my soul. Thank you very much.

[@ToraFish86]

Holy mackerel. Got so much more than I bargained for when I clicked on this one. Bravo

[@kyanhhoang9029]

By far this is one of the best electric guitar version. It has the warm and soft tone, which fits the piece very well because the original was a very intimate and peaceful piece. Well done sir.

[@jamuson]

no matter how this song is played, it makes want to shed a tear

[@johnnysokol719]

Thankyou for adding that final note! This is my favourite classical piece but it pains me that Debussy never wrote it with the final Db note

[@guylevinberg1093]

It's actually transposed to D here but yeah i guess i just couldn't help it

[@itswartrix9147]

your version is very well played and there are not many effects on the electric guitar which makes a super nice soft version to hear , I leave a like 👍

[@nayakharysss]

this never gets old, ty yt algo for bringing me back to this wonderful arrangement

[@Kendrix_76]

Now I want a tele with a Charlie Christian pickup in the neck! Gorgeous tone AND playing.. wow!

When the world needed him most, he vanished... Please post more :( you're literally the best guitarist doing classical on electric I've ever heard. Everybody doing classical guitar is a metalhead and only cares about shredding. You've got feeling like I've never heard and I need more ;(((( Roy Buchanan is smiling on you. I hear him in your sound (and I see Frank Zappa!!)

Beautiful comment, and nice ATLA reference to boot 💙🤎❤️🧡 (hope he won't sleep in an iceberg for 100 ye-- ok, just kidding)

[@Timat-s4n]

Beautiful, I've been looking for examples of electric guitar played this way, seems most electric guitar players are heavily blues influenced but after playing classical and electric guitars for many years I figured somebody out there was also playing so called classical music on electric too. The sustain must make it even trickier to manage the harmonic progression because of over ring. Well done.

[@guylevinberg1093]

Thanks! And yeah you're right sometimes i would put a capo on 1st fret just to avoid the overringing of open strings

[@diggerthegroundhog8799]

Wow. I never knew a Tele could sound so amazing.. It literally brought tears to my eyes. Bravo.

[@robertodetree1049]

Guy, there are two things I love a lot: Debussy and my Telecaster. But you managed to combine both, and that is amazing. Congratulations!

[@__demo]

i found clair de lune, the original version a long time ago. i was going through some really rough times and there was a small community behind the price. a couple years later i decided to learn guitar and now i’m back where i started, listening to the cover of one of my favorite pieces on my favorite instrument. good job man.

[@OliverJ08]

Good luck ❤

[@DeanHarknessArt]

An exquisite rendition of one of the greatest compostitions of all time.

[@tedhinklater3203]

You nailed the feeling of this beautiful piece

[@brandonthevampireslayer]

I feel so lost right now and I’m sitting in my kitchen and I just want you to know that you playing this and uploading it had made its way here and it’s really holding me together. You play so beautifully, thank you

[@bradford5951]

I studied this piece on the piano many years ago ... you’ve really done a remarkable job with your interpretation, adaptation, voicing and technique on the guitar. Wonderfully done!!

[@joshhall9418]

The Telecaster in it’s own right is such a beautiful instrument. A Mexican tele was my first and I’ll always at home when I play it but also I hear it be played like this. Just yeah

[@Marc-e4n]

Awesome...that prove that telecaster can play everything you're capable off...beautiful

so much talent…two thumbs up…1st time hearing this on telecaster…one of my favorite songs on piano

[@FranklyNorman]

I’ve listened to this five times in the past hour. So good. The thing I love the most is the constant addition of subtle vibrato that isn’t possible on a piano. Adds so much texture to the sound
