Edin Karamazov (Lute) - J. S. Bach - Toccata & Fugue part 1

[@tilmanhoppstock146]

Absolutely breathtaking interpretation. Full of passion and here with the perfect free rubato. Bravissimo!!

[@riverwildcat1]

Magnificent instruments, both the lute and him. There's a warm bell-like quality to his to be.

[@tinargimon]

this is remarkable...I play the baroque lute and one will rarely find someone who plays with the dexterity and clean precision of this fellow - he's also quite a multii-intrumentalist - listen to him playing bach's bouree anglaise on electric guitar

[@modernor]

Amazing performance Brother Karamazov!

[@TubeSpoker]

BRAVISSIMO ... one of the very vrey few guitar registrations after 500 years. Amazing ! Playing is way way perfect.

[@AutschbachPeter]

Congratulations, Edin!

[@eva0eva0]

Like almost anything, this is so much more intense at 1.5x speed. Especially his facial expressions.

[@kbkesq]

[@hbsupermage]

OMFG! THAT WAS SO AWEOSOME! SO EPIC!

[@carlosartifantasia]

wonderful!!!!

[@bobaldo2339]

Such volume! Such drama! No but seriously, I do like it. Love those big lutes anyway, and this is a very cool piece.

[@mafarmerga]

Would have loved to hear him play the whole piece

[@stephenbeatty6178]

Can you get one of those at Guitar Center?

[@Themostamazinguy]

Hahahaha no you can't. If you need resources to buy a nice lute, I can refer you :)

[@muurtalo]

Try Walmart first

[@NeiilVoornev]

Amazing

[@redaABDI]

Master ! Expert !

[@witboek]

Nice played!

[@304055163]

great!!!!

[@Mjollnir50]

BRAVO !!

[@lolamby1]

Not an expert but I think it's an "liuto attiorbato". They usually have pairs of strings in the upper courses but a lot of players play them with single courses all the way down (like Luca Pianca). Edin seems to have a hybrid stringing approach with pairs of strings in the diapason and single strings further up. Interesting compromise, I like it.

[@murphysadvocate]

I want one of those.

[@cualquie]

Very good

[@RedRicely]

[@samysjr.3313]

sonzera!!! \o/

[@oscarpalaciosruiz]

Santa María madre de DIOS. Anyone have a link to the full version??? Please?

[@KayWal_JDM]

@persiasand Ahh i just had to read a little farther down the list to find out what it was hahah Theorbo i never seen one before it sounds amazing them top string's must be played open cause no fret board behind them ... i like to play on that thing awesome sound huh

[@alcyonecrucis]

THAT LOOK ON THE LOW STRING

[@DrGreenfun]

thats thing looks intesnse!!!

[@BenDalmont]

isn't this a theorbo and not a lute? i'm guessing so.

[@sergejuspenskij5663]

Krass

[@MAXUTTONgtr]

This guy either misses the ball completely or hits it out of the park...and this one is definitely a home run!

[@tuorbe]

Hi Edin, impressive! do you play a guitar tuning on singles then basses in step in courses with octaves ?

[@KayWal_JDM]

I Play guitar but i have no idea what that is ..This is EPIC i love it

[@eshaneogy]

@RonnieTheFish I think it's an archlute rather than a regular lute because of the bass strings that are off the fretboard. The other big lute like that is the theorbo - hope I haven't confused the two.

[@combatlutenist]

he seems to play rock 'n' roll rather than baroque music .. anyhow i like his style.

[@KayWal_JDM]

@persiasand Amen to that :)

[@punchy001]

man, i had never seen anyone shred on the lute....

[@CaptainRon1913]

Abso"lutely" Awesome!

[@Toshtu]

What musical instrument is this? Wonderful performance!

[@James.D.B.]

I know the comment was 11 years ago, but it's a Lute, one of the ancestors of the modern guitar

[@majestic-skies]

Jezz I cant believe this guy was able to play this on lute! The songs already hard enough on organ where you have to use your feet to play portions of the piece.

[@mafiagranny]

apparently there are theories this piece was originally written for a lute or a violin!

[@KayWal_JDM]

@murphysadvocate Me TOOOOO

[@alexkonor71]

Это превохдно

[@jean-paulfrandin]

Very good but it is little too fast

[@davehshs651]

I've heard this on both guitar & lute many times, but never such an amazing, awesome rendition. (Julian Bream's "guitar fingernails" pretty much ruined his sound on the lute.)

[@priscianusjr]

@harveydeadman Tuning it is the easy part, pal.

[@eggie2097]

*Skyrim joined the chat.* *Skyrim left the chat.*

[@uneedtherapy42]

lute SHRED

[@Ago212]

bis...bis...bis

[@fabiobog]

i agree whit mr. Karamazov this piece must be plaied whit a little bit of "brutality"....

[@rfdarsie]

If Yngwie Malmsteen played the lute it might sound a little like this...amazing!

[@occamrules]

This man is clearly very skilful, but I hate the way he plays. He is far too theatrically impressed with his own 'brilliant' playing of the piece to be doing any justice to work of the far more talented man who composed it.

[@gabrielelegleiter6429]

Well, I suggest: Stop looking, just concentrate on listening, and I'm sure, you will be content with everything.

[@ნიკოლოზოთარაშვილი]

occamrules it’s called playing with passion, stop with the arrogance bullshit because it isn’t arrogance. When you’re a musician you play with emotion.

[@ThunderBirdTHS]

I can't even finish the video, you're right.

[@Elwood_McCable]

Meh.
