One of my favourite guitarists playing one of my favourite pieces. Played to bring out its beauty, rather than as a fast finger exercise.

[@wr7804]

Beautiful! This is one of my favorite pieces to play on the classical guitar. You play it so much better! I love it.

[@ryanr3071]

I played this as a solo contest piece on cello in high school and won first place with it. Sounds just as beautiful on guitar as it does on cello. Awesome video, simply beautiful

[@ruipinto3499]

Gohar, I am fallowing you for some years and surely you are presently one of rhe most leading classical guitarists in the world. This is the result a many and many years of love and hard work. Congratulations and tks for sharing your love for guitar with us! Hugs from Mozambique.

[@lindatsardakas]

Dear Gohar, that was beautiful! I am grateful for your help with this prelude. I brought it for my lesson with you at the CGC Summer School in 2017. Since then, I play it without slurs as you suggested. Best wishes, Linda

[@GoharVardanyan]

Oh yes, I remember you played that! I'm glad the lesson helped :)

I love the tempo you played this at Gohar. Every note resonates and lands exquisitely. The crescendo is so beautiful. Every time I watch you I am in awe. Stunning, thank you.

[@panipiotrowski2275]

Absolutely beautiful! And I appreciate having the clarity to see how the fingers move since I'm learning to play classical guitar myself. Thank you!

Hi Gohar. I love Bach. On the guitar is beautiful. Bach is a composer that I feel the presence of God.

[@zathrasnotzathras9435]

Bought my tickets for your performance in Cambridge coming up. Looking forward to seeing you perform live.

[@GoharVardanyan]

Awesome! Looking forward to meeting you!

[@zathrasnotzathras9435]

@@GoharVardanyan I do hope I get to say Hi.

[@e4d578]

Took a classic. Took something "common." But still managed to remind us why it is such a wonderful piece.

[@ayakoung-aram5130]

なんて美しい音でしょう👍✨♥️✨💐✨👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@MR-ub6sq]

Hi Dear Gohar, Is this called "Polyphonic Fingerstyle"? I think you turns the guitar into a really beautifully playable instrument. And I really admire the wonderful visuals you've created for these days videos - all the changing pastel colors in the background and the beautiful playing - and you make it all perfect! But maybe the best thing I see about you is that you live for the music you play. It's so soulful looking and not everyone who plays their instrument perfectly can do it. They just make a flawless sound production and that's all. I think you have a great gift! And you are a beautiful young woman and a real gemstone! Your videos are perfect these days. Thank you!

[@GoharVardanyan]

Thank you for the kind words! I’m glad you like the videos and the new background. You could call it polyphonic finger-style, because both words describe what’s happening, but in simpler terms I’m just playing baroque music on a classical guitar hahaha 🤣 in this piece particularly there isn’t much counterpoint, it’s mostly a single line with a bass.

[@MR-ub6sq]

@@GoharVardanyan Aha.. I didn't know you play baroque music. It just sounds good to me. I've only heard of a musician named Chester Atkins, who was perhaps the first to play with fingerstyle and many voices at once. And those listening to his playing on the radio usually believed that the song was assembled from several soundtracks playing at the same time, because it never occurred to them that someone would play the guitar polyphonically. I've also noticed that there are more young women on KZbin now who have learned it. That's great, and it's even more wonderful if the player lives with the song - like you do! I often wonder how the nails of the right hand will last if you don't use finger plectrums attached to your fingertips?

[@firminobispodesouzafilho3671]

Você é perfeita, maravilhosa, genial! Deus te abençoe e te ilumine sempre! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@pierluigiridolfi6858]

You play Bach like Bach and not like Chopin as many other guitar palyers do! Great!

[@tonyainsworth1118]

What a shame your upcoming concert is in Cambridge Mass and not Cambridge UK near my home! Perhaps one day….?

[@HarvestTheAngerOfIdiots]

nice round dark and wet notes .

[@MR-ub6sq]

How do you get cello music fits on the guitar so well, even though these instruments don't have much else in common, other than strings and a soundbox :) You are a real Gemstone!

[@GoharVardanyan]

Some pieces are totally doable, we have more strings, and Similar range, as long as there isn’t much sustain necessary, it fits

[@HilariousTranslation]

@@GoharVardanyan Hi, dear, I like your video so much. Would you like to try our FESLEY's electric guitar?

[@garnetacealbright]

I only found one mistake, you did not dedicate this piece to your friend Garnet from Trinidad, lol. Excellent job Prof. Gohar Vardanyan.

[@rolandbouche8835]

Superbe…pas plus ❤

[@medriyahyacout4700]

Bonjour,tu joues très bien c merveilleux,je pense si la vitesse ralentit un peu ce serait encore plus melodique

[@eduardoangelonipedron9961]

Hi Gohar. I love this prelude from cello suite. I would likecto buy this plastic that you use next to the bridge to protect the wood when change the strings. Do you know where I can get it?

[@GoharVardanyan]

I got it from Strings by Mail and just cut it to the size I want. The one at the bridge, under the tied part of the strings, is permanently adhered to the soundboard, although I don’t know if you can see that one. The one below the first string, the definitely visible one is static cling. I use that just to protect from golpes

[@eduardoangelonipedron9961]

@@GoharVardanyan Thanks. I' ll see at Strings by Mail.

Beautiful interpretation of this prelude. Is it your own transcription ? Thanks

[@Mtay2002]

thanks for sharing your great performance I play bar 29 in second string, third string and forth string Is this way correct based on Norbert Kraft? I believe this way is more attractive what is your opinion ?

[@GoharVardanyan]

There is no correct or incorrect way, these are transcriptions from cello, so everyone does something different.
