WINTER (Vivaldi) - The Four Seasons - Luca Stricagnoli - Fingerstyle Guitar

TOUR DATES www.lucastrica...
DESCRIPTION
“The Four Seasons” by A. Vivaldi is a masterpiece. My favorite part is “The Winter”, or “L’ Inverno” in the Italian original title. The first time I heard “Winter” as a guitar version was in 2019 during “International Guitar Night”. In that tour, my two friends Antoine Boyer and Samuelito, played an incredible arrangement for 2 guitars, and until this day that’s still my favorite guitar duo.
Recently, I found the brilliant version of Emre Sabuncuoglu, which not only is amazing, but was also very useful for me to learn the notes by ear from his guitar, rather than an orchestra. Thank you to all these artists for the great inspiration. My arrangement ended up having several differences, including a completely different tuning, the usage of percussion, the usage of tremolo in one of the latter parts, plus several Fingerstyle techniques used here and there. Overall, I believe that I managed to take inspiration, but at the same time adding enough of my own ideas to the pot. The video has been masterfully shot by my super wife Meg, as per usual at around 3 AM to avoid having people in the scenes.
I am using a X4 carbon fiber guitar made by the brand ENYA MUSIC www.enya-music... . I am also using a WX-501 wireless system by SWIFF AUDIO, as well as their tuner. www.swiffmusic.... .
Come to one of my live shows to hear this song and many more. Tour dates on: www.lucastrica...

We filmed this video at 3:00 a.m. because early mornings are great for shooting music videos. 😅 Hope you guys enjoy this one, too! 🥰

[@jafsterlordbib]

alright I forgive you guys for not posting in a while :) That was amazing

[@jasonwright1687]

This was epic! Great camera work, as usual. Luca, I would love to see and hear you do the other seasons... Especially La Primavera.. . . .❤🤤

[@borntofly4542]

Очень нравится👍👍👍 Я классику с раннего детства слушаю, к современным версиям отношусь без восторга, но это видео уже просмотрела два раза и не собираюсь останавливаться. Здесь великолепно всё - и музыка, и исполнение, и атмосфера❤❤❤

[@Nadia-lp2rm]

Your magical hand is evident and it adds beauty!

@@borntofly4542 У него тоже ОЧЕНЬ хорошие аранжировки и исполнение...как и Александра Мисько. Мою любимые моменты здесь 1:18 , 3:20.

[@thelastjohnwayne8726]

Idk if many people truly understand the feat of this rendition. To play a challenging 4 violin concerto on a single acoustic guitar, is truly on a level unto itself. Bravo, sir. Bravo!

[@geoffc376]

Idk if many people truly understand just how much it costs to replace acrylic fingernails several times a week.

This winter is hotter than any summer. Flawless playing!

Вы знаете много языков, но Ваш любимый - язык фактов 🤝

[@Frostbyte-Game-Studio]

Marcin didnt give us Vivaldi full version ... now Luca has. thank you Luca you're one of the best

[@Eduu.music.]

Yep honestly I like more Marcin I think it´s more sick!!! but well it´s what we have :/

[@Frostbyte-Game-Studio]

@@Eduu.music. I love Luca but Marcin for me is just on another planet. have you heard his Short version of this composition? vivadi's winter i mean ... it's so insane

[@yarkorab]

I expect Marcin will come up with a full version soon. He asked us if we wanted it, didn't he?😊

[@iainmacpherson8046]

Marcin is unquestionably an incredible talent but his music is a little too busy for my ears.

[@pzielonykp]

Who do you mean? What Marcin?

[@RBDderz]

Прекрасный выбор композиции и шикарное исполнение!

[@teresaloguemeeks3885]

If this was the only piece he played in his concert, it would be well worth traveling across the globe to hear it in person. Incredible.

[@michaelciancetta6397]

wow do you even have a life? ahhahahahahahahhahah

[@risky725]

Standing O for this guy! A true master. Proud to say I've been playing the guitar for 50 years since age 12. When I grow up, after I learn guitar, I want to be just like Luca. Although I DO have Horse With No Name mastered!

[@Joao_Maia]

This is ridiculous!!! GOD MODE!!! Thank you Luca, you are a genius

[@marclippman7653]

It is ridiculous!!!

[@Kiborg-Franky]

У меня просто нет слов! Это шедевр! Сделать аранжировку такой сложной композиции для гитары, это вершина мастерства! Браво

[@j5555785]

Wow, and as a classical guitarist myself, I have always felt that sometimes it has to be played through steel strings. This was pure metal!

[@zekragash4294]

Always said the seasons was the rock and roll of the 18th century. R&R was not allowed in my house growing up. I directed orchestras and played air violin in front of the console.

[@IntermittentlyInspired]

Luca made a deal with the devil. It’s not clear what Luca got, but the devil got guitar lessons

[@kurtfarrell7365]

Honestly I have always regarded Luca at the top of talent for guitarists. This, was the golden lining. Epic in the fact that this song undoubtedly allowed the viewer to see just how talented he is. Bravo 👏

[@neo_s.t.riders7184]

You are a true genius! What a figure! Bravo! Very merry Good!

[@vshlyakshlya]

As a musician, I will say that many melismas are inaccurate in tempo and dynamics, but as a listener, I will note that the performance and sensuality are gorgeous, and the technique does not raise any questions

[@Rubacava_]

Spot on timing and arrangement 💫

[@markC-888]

Truly virtuoso. The arrangement, the playing, the camera work. I feel blessed to have experienced this.

[@RaoulVega]

FINALLY! Some video without over post-production. There are many performers out there that sounds amazing BUT with excessive edition and post-production. This is amazing.

I play a piano transcription of this work, which is an orchestra reduction, I know how many nuances and voices and technicalities weave through this work.

[@sarahsugden3327]

Thank you, Luca, that was truly beautiful. You have no idea how much this made my day. This movement is the piece that got me into classical music 35 years ago, and to hear it on my favourite instrument ... my mind is blown. You are a true virtuoso. 👏👏

Thank you so much for the workshop yesterday afternoon and the fabulous concert last night. You are most welcome to our neck of the woods anytime you have the time. Maybe next time you’ll have Vivaldi’s “Autumn” ready to fly. The composition and the intricacy of your technique will make a great combination. Safe travels! Sally
