Marcin Dylla in Concert - Festival Sor 2021

[@jean-francoismasson6436]

Exceptionnel artiste ! son ! phrasée! équilibre! puissance!interprétation! virtuosité!.........et quelle prise de son !l'instrument est magique !

[@Eviclassicalguitar]

When Marcin Dylla starts playing, time stops, music becomes the only important existence. The story begins, images and emotions arise, and catharsis comes at the end.

[@blahdiblah2169]

As a classical guitar student, it always amazes me how perfectly he plays. Such expression and such a nimble and yet relaxed left hand.

[@Adelbertdemaesschalck]

Meesterlijke interpretatie van deze beroemde fantasia van meester Fernando Sor !

[@claudiaypaz]

Marcin es uno de los pocos guitarristas que puede hacer resaltar las voces más delicadas que Sor esconde en sus composiciones. Y lo más sorprendente es que además de la delicada mano con la que toca dichas voces, mantiene un paso majestuoso a lo largo de la pieza. Definitivamente vemos a un individuo totalmente dedicado al instrumento y su potencial. Qué suerte tenemos de poder oír esta ejecutacón tan inspiradora. Gracias, Marcin!

[@Pladderkasse]

Besides Dyllas obvious talents, I cant get over how great a composer Fernando Sor really was. This is levels above any of his contemporaries in the realm of guitarist-composers.

[@Priyadarshan_Nag]

Such an incredible composition by Fernando Sor! Marcin never fails to amaze me.

[@vies951]

Brawo Marcin!

[@robertoalexandre4250]

Am not the biggest fan of Sor, but I have never heard his works played like this (not even the great Pepe Romero who plays superbly, has the transcendental nuances and colored and dynamic phrasings with which Dylla infuses into this work); and for the guitar sound...one of the most beautiful, crystal clear I have ever heard. Dylla is much more than one of the greatest guitarrists of all times, he is among the top of musicians of any instrument. Bravo! His musicianship is beyond 99% of the even the finest guitarrists I have watched on KZbin.

[@davidschestenger3366]

Totally agree with you Roberto

[@fernandomutreras]

Magistral. Increíble interpretación!

[@Michajeru]

Definitely one of the most superb classical guitarists in the world today. This performance demonstrates his superb musical sensitivity and understanding.

[@gtrmusic69]

So glad to see a young player that's using a traditionally made guitar and producing a real tone on it too. This is soooo much better than the way too bass heavy and super thumpy F# double tops.

[@lucarinaldovillani63]

What a gift for this Festival entitled to Fernando Sor! His most poignant work, the Fantasia Elegiaca, in the hands of one of today's greatest interpreter. A quarter of hour with the purest Sor quintessence. Impressive and moving, professionally immaculate and deep, different from any previous version. The Guitar is here at its pinnacle in all its classical output and this interpretation shows The Music and nothing else, truly like a piano or a violin. Dylla is beyond any other and the deserved final applause is full of respect for Sor, for this great work and for Dylla who played it with the greatest artistry. GRAZIE SOR, GRAZIE MAESTRO !

[@guitarprayer8197]

Inspired performance! Great sound and drama. Bravo!

[@manuelymanuel3471]

Dylla tiene un fraseo amplio, muy difícil de conseguir en la guitarra. Esta versión en directo es referencial, incraíble y subleme. Y esa guitarra Torres... Maravilloso.

[@MyKukutis]

Amazing play

[@Guitarlifebyjohn]

Marcin Dylla is my favorite!!

[@AbnerChamate]

Grande maestro. Hermoso.

[@alejandroarroyorios175]

Marcin Dylla con seguridad es uno de los grandes maestros actuales de la guitarra. Un sonido hermoso y una personalidad artística única sumados a una magistral interpretacion de esta Fantasia de Fernando Sor hacen de este concierto una sublima belleza nunca antes vista. Felicidades maestro!!!

[@RobertoMartinez-kv5tp]

Magnífico. Las manos elegantes y relajadas de este gran polaco. ✔

Sublime.

[@sologuitardeath]

We need the whole concert!

[@BradConroy_guitar]

Incredible performance.

[@johnnash7769]

Spellbinding performance. Such focus and underlying serenity which is one of Sor's most potent and unique gifts.

[@tarekmohamed3263]

Passionate.

[@foglakeproduction]

An absolute masterpiece of music from that time and the best Fantasy Sor has written and which nowadays is played way too less! 👌 About Marcin's playing there is no need to talk: the piece couldn't have been played and interpreted better than by him! 👍

[@fedefranz]

always amazing, expecially when he plays this kind of repertoire!

[@hamir6929]

Que Bonita guitarra , Gran Guitarrista

[@Artearq7]

La "Fantasía elegíaca"; la más bella obra de Sor y la más Romántica.

[@josekalilsalles4706]

A snore! An entirely boring performance of this incredible and dramatic work.

[@georgeriamei6704]

Suchui he apou👏

[@DanFromIran]

we all know and love the instrumentalist, but who is the luthier? that guitar has amazing power, excellent dynamic range. very respectable sustain but somehow excellent clarity and separation between strings.

[@FoveaTenebrae]

Is it a Daryl Perry?

[@sologuitardeath]

The luthier is Gabriele Lodi.

[@stevemarson]

Ringo Starr is amazing - who knew?

[@HuiswerkGitaarles]

Superior Sor. BTW: he ignores Sors 'left hand only' playing instruction right after the beginning. You might say: Dylla is right, because it's a toneless technique. But isn’t it essential to the rethoric of the piece? After an intial cry of anguish after hearing of Mme De Beslay's death, Sor is just speechless. BTW, I like the fact that he uses a conventional guitar with very good sound.

[@laurafruhwirth5913]

Weiß jmd von wem die Gitarre ist? Wieso schreiben die das nie dazu? Der Luthier ist auch Künstler. - Does anyone know which guitar he is playing? Why don`t they write that down anyways?! The luthier is an artist too,

[@niceguitar6144]

[@michaelwan4965]

Wonderful.What brand is this guitar？

[@nikoud1960]

I think it is a guitar made by Gabriele Lodi, Italy. Torres copy.

[@javi4024]

Que guitarra usa el maestro? Tremendo!

[@PabloUriarte]

Torres

[@garyto75]

Sin la intención de ofender al genio de Sor pero esta obra parece una copia con variaciones de su obra introducción, tema y variaciones sobre un tema de Mozart, por supuesto con cambios tonales, más larga, y menos propositiva. Con todo respeto.

[@Artearq7]

Lávate las orejas, pues no tiene nada que ver.

[@garyto75]

Lavatelas tú, no lo mencioné para darte gusto o a los demás.

[@Artearq7]

@@garyto75 No te ofendas. Es una expresión que indica que ambas fantasías son muy diferentes. Una basada en la ópera de Mozart, y otra con el dramatismo de una Elegía.

[@killer36ize]

Would be interesting to see if he could write his own music, and not just be a virtuosic player.

[@emadvashahi8244]

it wasnt a good performance of this fantasy and a classical era peace....tone was great and it was so romantic but it isnt the peace...it was dylla ...not sor

[@lieber4154]

No body alive has heard Sor live.. How do you know it wasn't Sor??? And in what sense was it not a good performance... You need to listen... This performance was beautiful... It's a pity that you don't see it..

[@zuohagel1796]

There are numerous contemporary sources and methods on the guitar and its technique in the 19th century, including a full book written by Sor. Based on what the players of the period and Sor have written, including very specific details and an entirely different technique and hand position, it can be said with absolute certainty that this is not a stylistically or technically sound/correct performance. A statement meant in a laconic manner. For me in the end, in most cases hearing modern guitarists play classical/romantic repertoire on modern instruments with modern technique and long nails comes off very drab. Especially in a sublime lyrical work like this where there is little flash, and technical fireworks. This performance of Dylla's is a snore. To call it bland would be an understatement. The pity is people thinking art is entirely subjective and if it moves them that is enough. No - there are specifics - especially in historical performance, and they matter and have an effect. When one learns these idiosyncrasies and historical techniques, it naturally informs the style and performance, and then this music really comes to life!

[@joelschwartz5768]

@@zuohagel1796 OK. So have you played this piece without finger nails? Or do you know people who have? If so, you should post it somewhere. From what I hear on this performance, his tone, dynamics, expression, and technique are impeccable
