Roland Dyens - Berimbau by Baden Powell (arrangement by Roland Dyens)

The Tenth International
Guitar Festival Belgrade, Serbia
February 7 - 14, 2009

[@hoylecasino]

Professor Roland Dyens is one of the most exciting classical guitarists ! The berimbau is a single string percussion instrument, a musical bow, from Brazil. Originally from Africa where it receives different names, the berimbau was eventually incorporated into the practice of the Afro-Brazilian martial art capoeira, the berimbau or the soul of capoeira leads the capoeiristas movement in the roda the faster the berimbau is playing the faster the capoeirista moves in the game. The instrument is known for being the subject matter of a popular song by Brazilian guitarist Baden Powell, with lyrics by Vinicius de Moraes ...

doesnt happen often, that, when watching a musician play, that youre watching pure genius in action.........

[@renedessessandre42]

Le plus grand, pour moi, même si c'est presque impossible à dire, mais il avait un truc en plus. RIP, MONSIEUR

[@GustavoTietze]

Parabéns Roland Dyens, excelente interpretação de nosso mestre Baden Powell! Bravo!

[@RobertoMartinez-kv5tp]

Genial arreglo ✔👍

[@viarnay]

@bizarkid Mr. Dyens is the best composer since Mr. Leo Brower, simply a genius.

[@owlsonik37]

In my opinion there was none greater! I was blessed to have seen him live many years ago. I’ll never forget the impact it had on me

[@Z5LA5H]

that sign behind him actually wasn't there when he started. it manifested when he finished playing...

[@stefanristic103]

hello from serbia where to find this composition please thank you

[@guitar252]

master

[@GuitarguyRichard56]

Whoah!

[@jmach2409]

Muito bom arranjo ,sem o swing brasileiro ,mas valeu pela homenagem ao Baden.

[@CAJMusic]

Le maître! :-)

[@wassilyfrank]

Breathtaking. Guys, I dont know, if someone else asked for this, but I wanna know: WHERE CAN I BUY THE SCORES FOR THIS??? o.O

[@GuilhermeEFOliveira]

Wassily Frank This site hosts many Scores from Baden Powell, but all of them are Baden versions. www.confrariasambachoro.com.br/2013/02/baden-powel-partituras.html

[@wassilyfrank]

Guilherme Eduardo Thanks!

[@GuilhermeEFOliveira]

Wassily Frank I'm glad to help!

[@nycoshouse]

this is a way toooooo difficult. I start with the Angelo Franzi arr. but one day ;)

[@VietnamAirForce]

@coralgrouper Oui. Pourquoi?

[@silviopqueiroz]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@sologuitardeath]

killer

[@sigurorton6287]

How is he able to mimick the sound of the berimbau with the guitar (beside that he's an expert musician)? Something about the way his instrument is tuned?

[@kennethringo9137]

Yep. Lots of bending of strings too.

[@r_potter]

Cross the strings overtop of eachother. When combined with a rasgueado it sounds like a snare drum roll

[@aallleeeex]

god like teacher :D

[@gigapancho17]

yo si me duermo con esto jajaja

[@VietnamAirForce]

I prefer the baden's version. But that original. (c'est toujours un peu tiré par les cheuveux ses trucs. Plus preuves ils y en a qui sont tombés en haut de son crânes.)

[@MisterRogersful]

Frank Zappa!

[@orlando1margot]

ademas, me parece por la clase de comentarios tan ignorantes que aquellos que critican no han oido en su vida lo que es un berimbau, los exhorto a que busquen a percusionistas como naná vasconcelos y sus interpretaciones del berimbau, escuchen esa sonoridad, y luego escuchen este arreglo (de lo que deberian saber, es guitarra contemporanea) y diganme si me equivoco al decir que este hombre es un genio al transmitir el alma ( oparte de ella) del berimbau a la guitarra. aprendan a oir y sentir.

[@jepatt8376]

Capable de tout jouer : professeur, concertiste, compositeur de talent, arrangeur exceptionnel....j'arrête.

[@TheBitterSweetgr]

Roland Dyens is by far the most inventive and innovative guitar composer of modern times...He's first and foremost and mainly a dedicated musician of extreme skill and wit.

[@oscarnavarrooficial]

El señor Dyens siempre fue genial,fue un genio innovador, virtuoso y extraordinario bajo mi punto de vista,descanse en paz maestro.

[@yobrojoost]

What an incredible player this man is! The sounds he gets out of the guitar are just unbelievable, especially the berimbao bit at the beginning and the percussive part starting at 4.48. In fact, the whole piece is total class!

[@sylwesterkukuka3592]

Really superior arrangement and performance. Unbelievable, Dyens rest in peace, you are immortal in our minds through your music.

[@GuitarMaster2410]

Los arreglos de Roland, originalísimos y sacando todo el partido a la guitarra. Ante todo, genialmente interpretados por él mismo.

[@ellinousanorymous1513]

Ha ha ha! 25 dislikes! This has got to be a joke, right?

[@fresquitopgirl]

Ellinous Anorymous Perhaps those are the tone deaf..

[@viarnay]

He makes a mistake in 2:20 but this version is full of chromatism and the arrangament is simply brilliant he pushes the guitar to higher level. No doubt Mr. Roland is the top three guitarist in the world but I can't find the two others :-).

[@Dhammawitt]

They should invent a Berimbau instrument that way we don't have to play it on guitar.

[@MrDizzyvonclutch]

Did he almost forget to tune down? I just wondering why he detained the low E in the middle of the percussive stuff at the beginning

[@viarnay]

Roland dyens is a visionary and a genius

[@eduardobernardesdemelo5636]

Um berimbau meio diferente,mas muito bem executado por esse excelente guitarrista! Valeuuu 😄

[@rufinosanchez2703]

Desde luego, el maestro Dyens fue un extraordinario guitarrista y arreglador (EPD).

[@gtrs4life]

I listened without watching, it is extraordinary! The rhythm, development and form, spot on.

[@dabuttareo]

@Dhammawitt Lol, the Berimbau IS ALREADY an instrument

[@Michael-mg4tx]

Amazing playing! Greatly missed...R.I.P. ,Roland

[@jcmc3445]

RIP maestro inspirador :(

[@Michajeru]

Respect indeed. He is one of the greatest masters.

[@lawrencetendler7747]

sounds just like a real Berimbau .

[@o.sabiolouco]

And this interpretation is amazing... his timbre on the guitar is makes it seems like an elemental musical instrument from the mistic forces of nature... open your ears!

[@giampaololazzari6220]

roland dyens è un genio della chitarra!

[@donchen1963]

My father often took me and by brother to gallary, when I saw a painting that I dislike the most, I will call my brother first, and tell him that dad will love this, so my brother went and call my father, and my father came and praise us that we are genius to have good sight and appriciation this great art, and magically that I never fail in my younger days.

[@cc-jg6ec]

陳靖逸 truth.but most people can never grow their taste in art to this level

[@Boldstrummer]

the rhythmic independence and impeccable control of all the musical aspect of this piece is just awesome.

[@bluesatmosphere4659]

It sounds like tribe music

[@annafanelli7687]

GENIOUS. The greatest. Deeply missed.

[@VietnamAirForce]

@coralgrouper Sois pas prompte fieu! Je n'ai critiqué que ce morceau! En l'occurrence ici je amoindri pas le travail de Roland Dyens. D'ailleurs j'en ai apprécié d'autres qui étaient plus à mon goût. Et je te laisse faire la différence entre écouter ce "Berimbeau by RD" et jouer ce "Berimbeau by RD". Évidemment l'écart est grand. Et oui j'ai écouté le reste, et pareil. Ca ma plu ou déplu! Mais sur les vidéo d'un guitariste tel RD je ne clique jamais sur "I don't like this".

[@VietnamAirForce]

@coralgrouper Je vois où tu veux en venir. Je me dis musicalement que je préfère la version de Baden Powell. Ce que fait RD n'est pas inappréciable. Mais lui recherche plus des sons qu'une mélodie. Certes des sons similaires à un Berimbau. Mais de là à dire que je dois ressentir quelque chose au fond de moi...

[@JaveZ3]

Qué madres es esto!!!!!! Impresionante

[@LordJanzelot]

Batalle algo para aprender Libra sonatine, pero esto ya es otro nivel BRAVO!

[@FixisAudiovisual]

esta la hizo para tocarla él solo, de hecho no tiene intérprete al parecer

[@LordJanzelot]

Yo solo vi a uno mas que tocaba este tema, se llama Victor Pellegrini...

[@raymondlinaresavila]

INCREDIBLE!!!!!!! GREAT!!!!

[@berzaable]

maestro de maestros

[@Rogeliorock2]

una pregunta. hay partitura para esta obra? no es que me guste por que, honestamente no me gusta. pero es que escirbir esto, no se como, no tengo ni la menor idea.. un saludo

[@raymondlinaresavila]

JUST EXTRAORDINARY!! UFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!

[@viarnay]

simply incredible, once again Mr. Dyens do it possible

[@duderock009]

man this is not his own composition and all that he wants is to evocate the berimbau, through the effects . all this effects take the place of the original sompositions human voice . srry for my english im from romania. .

[@marceloramirez7053]

Not sure about this one, Number one arrabgement is Cacho Tirao

[@lupoluke]

no words....

[@lawrencetendler7747]

3: 50 brilliant

[@musicavariada6975]

La Mejor Versión Lejos es la de Cacho Tirao, Un Grande. La de Dyens es Hermosa igualmente, un Genio el maestro.

[@dabuttareo]

@Dhammawitt oh, ok. hard to understand sarcasm from here. Anyway my comment will answer all the people who don't know :P

[@Boldstrummer]

He is imitating what a Berimbau Sounds like. Just like Baden Powell did but differently. Bravo Roland!

[@o.sabiolouco]

lol, berimbau is an ancient african instrument, and this piece is based on the homonomous piece by brazilian guitar master Baden Powell, search it and u will be surprised.

[@risikiri]

I love it

La de Cacho es la Mejor de todas Para mi.

[@katelittlefoot6048]

Alguien me ayuda con el nombre de la pieza en 1:45 ?

[@RodrigoVolponiLeal]

Kate Littlefoot el nombre de la pieza es "Berimbau", creado por Baden Powell (guitarrista brasileño).

[@motta0]

+Kate Littlefoot listen to Toquinho`s version, it`s very different from this one, better in my opinion

[@kobolto]

+motta0 Berimbau is a wonderful hymn. Please listen versions Yamandú Costa, Toquinho and Vinicius and the various versions of the same Baden Powell, all very different, but all beautiful
