I’m a masters classical composition post grad student, as well as a jazz fusion and prog metal keyboardist and guitarist. I have studied the Rite for many years, always in the back of my mind thinking of doing something like this, but I was just always too overwhelmed by the enormity of the task to make any serious headway with it. But my gods, you actually did it! I only discovered this video yesterday and I’ve already watched it 4 times. The work to do this… I am truly in awe. Without exaggeration, this is one of the most impressive musical accomplishments I’ve ever bore witness too. The world is truly a richer place for this existing. My absolute admiration and respect for what you have achieved here.

Hi, I'm a pianist- composer, teacher in Composition in a Conservatory in Italy. I want to congratulate for the brillant and incredible transcription of the Rite of the Spring. I was astonished in how you have found so many different colours on the guitar. Every musical detail is so well put in evidence with different timbres. I have played myself this piece in the 4hand version at the piano (the recording is on KZbin), and know very well how difficult It is to play such a colourful orchestral score using only one instrument. For this I particularly appreciate your work, and give you my most stimate congratulations for this video! Bravissimo!!😀😀🎶

The Rite was disruptive 100 years ago, and continues to be disruptive. Stravinsky put all the pieces together necessary to forever change the trajectory of 20th Century (and beyond) music. It makes a huge impact on every composer who has studied it, and to all the composers and experimentalists who followed, it gave their works "legitimacy." It has been said that metal is the closest thing to classical music, and you have proven that, Maestro. To witness its far-reaching effect, listen to the score of any blockbuster. You will recognize it when film score composers like John WIlliams, Leonard Bernstein, Ennio Morricone, James Newton Howard, Lalo Schifrin, Hans Zimmer, James Horner, Danny Elfman and many more pay homage to The Rite by including parts of it in their soundtracks. You have done justice to The Rite, and I thank you for introducing a new generation to it. It changed the Classical music world, it expanded my life the first time I heard it at age 7, and now at age 70, you have expanded my outlook again. Bravo!

@@piotrd7355 Thanks for the heads up (I didn't know these bands, although I think I vaguely heard of Voivod years ago)! Listening to Voivod now. It still seems super-distorted and so diatonic, because you can't do dissonance so easily with distortion, because if you play a distorted F next to a distorted F#, it just sounds like sludge. When you play two neighboring notes clean, you can get nice effects. Although Voivod isn't dissonance the way I see it, they do have a ton of key changes for sure, and it's really proggy, and I kinda like it now too, on first listen. When I say dissonance, I mean beat-notes like this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6a3eIaMjrhnb5Y . Each guitar is set up really clean, no distortion individually, but the blend creates beat-notes and harmonics naturally. Once you add distortion, the harmonics are so loud that it's hard to make dissonant combinations sound good.

John this is a momentous achievement! Apart from the original orchestral version this is by far the best arrangement of the world’s most unique piece of music (my goodness had Stravinsky been abducted by aliens before he wrote this?). The piano arrangement is far to bland because it only has one sound but by using the whole family of guitar sounds you have created new and very expressive colours to project the brilliance of the work. That combined with your guitar virtuoso ability transports the listener to another place or planet! However one of the most exceptional aspects of this recording is the filming of it! The closeups of the very active finger activity up and down the fret-board becomes the “ballet”. It is completely captivating. I think that you need to get some other guitarist of your ability plus bass and drummer and film projectionist and go on tour. It would be sensational! Thank you 🙏 thank you 🙏 thank you 🙏 🇦🇺🙏🎸👍👏💫🌙✨⚡️

You're a genius, man! Thank you so much for creating and sharing this masterpiece. I've heard it by parts before , but hearing it in full is a much more electrifying experience. The arrangement is masterful. You manage to give each instrument in the score the right metallic equivalent, using the guitar effects and some techniques like slide and others. Sometimes, while listening, I thought: this is the sonority that Stravinski was really looking for. It is known the case of the bassoon of the beginning, playing a melody out of the usual register of the instrument, precisely because the composer was looking for new sonorities. I am convinced that you have completely achieved a new sonority that "the Rite" seeks. Thank you very much and congratulations!!!

This is an extraordinary accomplishment. Literally crying listening to this now and marveling at both your and stravinsky's incredible effort to produce a work of such depth and beauty. Though I'm a fan of the bad plus and their work in general, your rendition is imho leagues ahead of theirs as we can actually hear all the parts! I'm hearing things Id never heard before in orchestral recordings, yet somehow the mix isn't too dense and everything blends wonderfully

I was about to get 8 hours of sleep and was gonna watch like a few minutes of this and ended up staying for the full 32min 🗿

As with most great artistic endeavors the overwhelming majority of people will never understand how amazing this is. I’m assuming also that as with most great artistic endeavors you didn’t do it for the likes.

This is insanely well done! I only wish Frank Zappa were alive to hear it!

This! Some parts reminded me so much of Zappa.. the Black Page #2 especially

I was looking for the old rendition of The Night on Bare Mountain by Mekong Delta (which is awesome but unfortunately more or less forgotten by now), thinking the usual old man's "these days, no one would bother with something like this anymore". Then, God bless the algorithms, this showed up as a recommendation, and I was utterly, completely blown away! In addition, I see there is quite a few of us who enjoy this kind of thing! Thank you Joe Parrish and everybody here, love you all!

Fantastic. I think Dream Theater should use Rite of Spring as inspiration. It would revamp their creativity tenfold!

Years ago I was reading an interview with a band I’d never heard of called Dillinger Escape Plan. This was around the time Calculating Infinity came out. This sounds like what I thought they would sound like.

There is no known way to fully physically brace oneself for the impact of how good this is.

Brilliant. Heavy. Actually helps me understand Stravinsky’s crazy lines better than a graphical score.
