Only when Pepe plays a Nineteenth century Torres it's the closest we get to hearing Tarrega himself play live.

[@hiendo5846]

So true 👍

[@80shardrockRules]

Check Carles Trepat, Torres guitar,Gut and Silk, and short nails (he was Pujol's student, Tarrega's disciple)

[@JojoQuik]

@@80shardrockRules thank you for this...I'm always looking for more masters to study and anyone from the actual lineage of Tarrega's tutelage is pricless.

[@someromantic754]

The way he makes the guitar sing... I literally get chills every time

[@DiogoAndrade30]

Amazing tone from a perfect trio. Pepe + Tarrega + Torres= pure magic

[@zahykhoury]

Appreciate the slower tempo than most other interpretations on KZbin. Nice focus on notes.

[@Guitarsalon]

Pepe told us when he was here that he wanted to perform in a style that Tarrega would appreciate if he could hear this performance. Pepe remembers as a kid growing up around several of Tarrega's pupils - Daniel Fortea, Josefina Robledo, etc and tried to play as he remembered their performances of these pieces. Pretty cool - we think this is about as close to Tarrega as anyone can get! Thanks for the comment!

[@zahykhoury]

@@Guitarsalon Great clarifications indeed! Keep up the good work guys.

[@johnmcnaughton26]

Julian Bream also plays Spanish pieces at a slower tempo. They sound better at this pace. You can almost see the rich and mellifluous overtones and undertones of the sustained notes floating around together and recombining inside the sound hole.

[@ThomasGlennSmithMusic]

I have never heard Tarrega played with such patience and love, magnificent, nice guitar too

[@franksabatino7576]

The tenderness and dignity in this performance are sublime.

[@subathrasakthivel8273]

That guitar has such a wonderful voice and resonance. And Pepe Romero's playing makes it even better. Love from India

[@mildnomsed]

Can we get Pepe Sr to record a new album on that guitar please? 😅🙏

[@mathieulanglois6080]

a true gentleman this Pepe Romero! and the guitar is just beautiful!

[@Josh.Vanjani]

Well played Señor Romero, bravo 👏! Such an authentic sound. I'm happy the string brand was also listed in the description this time, they're a wonderful compliment to this de Torres masterpiece. 😎

Pepe Romero, la storia della chitarra! (Bellissimo il suono dello strumento)

Fantastic, I just wonder how this would sound with gut strings! even more beautiful

[@simondanielssonmusic]

This is such a warm sounding guitar

[@joaomendes3907]

Sorry but I have to agree and disagree. The piece and the master guitarist play a huge role on that. But i do have to agree that the guitar does have a sweet and dark sound

[@simondanielssonmusic]

@@joaomendes3907 Of course! You're entirely correct

[@alexandervandengoorbergh1104]

Pepe, my heart is trembling ween I hear you. You are like Segovia, one of the greatist gitarists on earth. Thank you! Alexander.Cotignac.

Just pure soul, listening to Maestro Pepe’s soulful touch

[@josejoaoaiex9106]

Aplausos Maestro!!!! Ud expresa el alma cuando toca

[@RichterGuitar]

Incredible Torres tone and a masterful performance from Romero to match! Thanks for uploading 😌

[@juankaloobe]

hay algo en el sonido de Pepe Romero, es la dulzura, la belleza del sonido, su vibrato, su guitarra Torres, se escuchan los movimientos de los dedos, de los trastes que le dan una magia maravillosa. creo que asi sonaria el mismo Francisco Tarrega. hay guitarristas mas virtuosos, mas rapidos, no fallan una nota, tan precisos, pero el Maestro Pepe Romero es especial. cierras los ojos y su maravillosa interpretacion te llega al alma.

[@juanbecerra6253]

Wow, lo ví cuando vino a Colombia, que grato recuerdo, lo ví en mi cumpleaños, nunca voy a olvidar que tocó una de mis obras favoritas, que ya no me acuerdo ni cual fue, creo que un tango, pero no se si el de Ronald Dynes, o por una cabeza, el caso es que lo disfruté muchísimo, está viejón ya el maestro, que respeto le tengo

Such a nice tone. Something about Torres, M Ramirez, Santos, Hauser Sr; that’s when guitar sound peaked. Sounds like they’ve been getting worse ever since

[@enriquemendez1507]

Though technique was always at the forefront of every classical guitarists' mind, the great players of back then only made you think of technique after the fact. Self expression and playing something meaningful always came first, and with modern guitarists i feel that they put technique first and songwriting second. I couldn't agree more with your sentiment.

[@LadyCroMag]

Geeezus, Pepe owns many guitars, and surely a Torres or two... Can't he play his own???

[@Guitarsalon]

Pepe came in and recored on all 3 of Tarrega's Torres guitars! And he brought some of his, and recorded on those as well. We'll be releasing these little by little! Thanks for watching!

[@steveb9325]

This is GSI, they get known and soon to be known Classical guitarist to play their guitars that they're selling. They were very lucky to have Maestro Romero play for them-us. Thank you GSI.

[@steveb9325]

@@Guitarsalon thank you GSI. Thank you Pepe!

[@LadyCroMag]

I say to let Grisha take a Torres around the block a few times!!!

[@StephiSensei26]

I believe the purpose of the video is to demonstrate the qualities of this instrument for Guitar Salon's benefit. Maestro Pepe does both, demonstrate and bring music to the fore.
