Marcin Dylla plays Nocturnal by Benjamin Britten

[@Fernwald84]

I think Nocturnal is one of the masterpieces of contemporary music. Its penetrating expression of moods, commonly associated with the night time, is unsurpassed. Marcin: your feeling for this difficult piece is very evident and your technique is up to its stringent demands. You have let the music speak perfectly in you and through you.

[@briandunbar8749]

One of the finest performances I've ever heard.

[@LEICA8x20]

Magnificent…Mr Dilla performing Mr Brittens music through Gabriele Lodis instrument. Three masters, dancing in the air…..

[@Michajeru]

This had such a powerful emotional impact on me that I felt exhausted. There is a real display of genius here, both in the musical composition and in the virtuoso performance of Marcin Dylla.

[@alexandervandengoorbergh1104]

Marcin, I adore you! Great performance, technique and sensability. Thank you! Alexander.

[@carolaguitarra]

Very impressive, the music, the guitar player and the instrument! Thank you millions...

[@quigley4440]

An incredible performance by Marcin. Love the sound from this maple guitar. Hope he continues to use it.

[@SuperMelvyn]

Having struggled to make "sense" of this piece in other performances, this one came across clearly in all its complexity and I suddenly "hear" what Britten must have had in mind. A tremendous performance and recording of an elusive masterpiece.

[@horrorskopf]

An interpretation between reverie and pastorale which turns me inside out. Man, this is so great ...

[@carminedemarco]

Wonderful, Marcin. One of my favorite pieces, ever since I first heard Bream play it almost 40 years ago. Thank you for this.

[@Lodi_Torres_SE_113]

Great player, wonderful music - Dowland is gorgeous... and last not least - great guitar by one of the best luthiers of our time. It is always a pleasure to play a Lodi guitar or even to listen!

[@marctucciaronemusic7738]

Marcin ! You are truly one of the very best interpeters of music on guitar ! You always get to the deepest profundity of the piece !!! It sounds like you composed it !

[@PhilMcKelliget]

Bravo, Marcin! A mysterious and profound interpretation.

[@PseudoPseudoDionysius]

I don't think I've heard a classical piece (older or contemporary) that takes such full advantage of what the guitar can do! Stunning.

[@daveragt]

I just finished listening to several video performances by Marcin on a Woodbridge guitar. I heard Marcin on the Lodi in person several years ago. In recording or live, the Lodi to my mind outperforms the Woodbridge. I love the Lodi! And Marcin? I'm glad I had a chance to hear maybe the best guitarist of this new century and certainly in the same league as a Bream. Indeed a rare treat!

[@socrates1818]

The greatest piece ever written for guitar -

[@briandunbar8749]

Brilliant use of the left hand to play bass notes during the tremolo (VII Gently Rocking) section at 9:10.

[@ddpark1]

Perfect performance of the greatest masterpiece written for guitar.

[@TLopesz]

That's one of the most wonderful renditions I've ever heard in my life. Thank you, really.

[@ThomasVogtFreiburg]

this is by far the most touching interpretation of the Nocturnal I ever heard...simply perfect !

[@keithcalder521]

Astonishing, another flawless performance capturing the essence of the composer’s intentions, communicated perfectly.

[@james.housego]

That guitar truly is a masterpiece

[@Bacteriod]

I have no words......Left me speechless!

[@Budy69able]

Gracias por ésta maravilla, he soñado miles de veces con ésta obra y creo que llegué a tocarla con más o menos acierto, pero veinte años después aquí estás tú tocándola ¡y parece que me mimetizo!, jajaa, la desempolvaré, jaaa. Aunque sin más pretensión que la de disfrutarla, no creo que llegue a ese nivel que veo en ti. Una abrazo, un placer escuchar la buena música bien tocada. ;)

[@shirleymitchell6999]

Breathtakingly marvellous!

[@lawrencetendler2342]

The guitar sounds beautiful.

[@BeauJames59]

I'm flabbergasted on 17 levels..........thanks SO much. Haven't listened to the piece in 30 years......SO DAMN GOOD AND GUITARISTIC...........I gotta learn it.......

[@socrates1818]

A sprawling landscape of the psychology of beauty. Keats would be proud.

[@alexdevalera4550]

I am often bored by the performances of classical guitarists, but listening to this interpretation was for me a revelation. I think Britten would have been very proud of Marvin’s performance. It is technically impeccable and musically totally respectful of Brittens text. Beautiful sound going from delicacy to aggressiveness and showing a deep understanding of the piece. I still know some of it by heart, it is one of the masterpieces of the guitar repertoire. Bravissimo Marcin! This is an outstanding performance

[@grahamcombs4752]

A new performer to me. I look forward to listening to his other postings.

[@kevinkgillette]

Wow! Simply amazing! The cleanliness and coloring of his playing is beyond virtuostic!

[@Engaelic]

For reasons unbeknownst to me this is the epitome of what classical guitar is.

[@dmitrijsazanovich00]

Marcin Dylla is a person who fascinates with his charisma in music.

[@diegopolidori3003]

one of the best performances i have ever heard about this masterpiece.

[@iadorenewyork1]

* of this masterpiece. I agree -- it is amazing.

[@manuelaherreragomez1860]

Magnífico!! Hace mucho tiempo que no disfrutaba tanto de un guitarrista 😍

[@center77]

Interesting and beautiful. Refreshing that it is not stuck in the major / minor modes

[@aidakasmaei]

Dear and lovely Marcin😍❤ Miss you🌻🌻

[@gabrichesuona]

Che meraviglia, stupendo, coinvolgente, bravissimo Marcin Dylla

[@Michajeru]

This is very special. Superb performance, totally captivating. And how good is the tone of that guitar? Magnificent!

[@mozhganfalahati6805]

Fantastic اند amazing👌👌🎶🎶

[@juanolave9173]

Saludos desde Colombia, eres un Genio de la guitarra, para mí eres quien mejor interpreta capricho árabe.

[@Luca-gz3zj]

Stunning.

[@donkeychan491]

Better than Bream's version. Incredible. Really captures the heart and spirit of this piece. With Britten's music his delicacy of expression always requires a great performance, which is what we have here.

[@gallettoguitarist]

Fantastico Marcin! 😍 😍 😍

[@marcobrocks1490]

How great...just beautiful...

[@guillaumegibert3145]

amazing performance, what à sound!

[@gillesdf6635]

Magnifique !!

[@artlm2002]

This is an incredibly difficult piece to play. imo it is also one of the few real masterpieces written for the guitar. Dylla has it completely under control with beautiful tone and phrasing.

[@lawrencetendler2342]

Dylla is at his best playing contemporary works for guitar .

[@PascalJugy]

Congratulations!

[@patrycja6100]

WOW naprawdę pięknie widać że się wczuwa szkoda że ja tak nie umiem 😿😿😿

[@a_little_flame589]

Britten wrote one piece for our instrument solo and he managed to make a piece better than most of those than sor and tarrega (it’s almost like if we got regular composers to compose for our instrument we’d have better music and we can only really do that by musically integrating by playing with other performers and doing it well instead of our current way of just doing our own thing and hoping it all works out)

[@sologuitardeath]

Bravo!

[@aidakasmaei4105]

I wish I can see you in may❤

[@kleberalexandre-compositor8222]

Muito bem interpretado!!! Algumas soluções bem interessantes de mão esquerda, sobretudo no segundo movimento. Sonoridade muito rica!!! aliás, qual é o luthier desse novo violão? parabéns.

[@kleberalexandre-compositor8222]

Ah!!! gabriele Lodi!!!!

[@gtrs4life]

Masterful!

[@NathanCampbellGuitarist]

I love the ending

[@yumizuno2361]

Wonderful Tone !

[@JaxonBurn]

All that chromaticism, then it finally finds peace in E major after 14 and a half minutes. What a beautiful moment.

[@Morten_Nielsen1979]

Very strong, clear and silky sounding guitar. Is it a flamenco guitar or a classical guitar, or a kind of hybrid of the two guitar types? Magnificent performance ♥️.

[@gianbattistacampo9181]

Unico, bravissimo

[@marialuisapittaluga8881]

Elegante raffinato grande artista

[@complexphenom402]

the Krystian Zimerman of the guitar

[@johnny_ng]

marvelous

[@larrybrandes304]

To really understand what a pinnacle performance this is, I believe that it helps to be able to play the Nocturnal yourself.

[@tucki666]

It's difficult, really is

[@johnniebasch8660]

Like a Boss

[@Tylervrooman]

FYI you most recent upload has comments blocked. You have to say it s "not" for kids which is confusing. I had the same issue with my recent upload.

Who made your guitar?

[@johncampbell3912]

read the description

[@rohamsaberi3589]

what a sound 😶

[@ДенисСабиров-ь1з]

чой то не заходит Бриттен. А раньше норм было...

[@guillermorejas8949]

Muy plano. Necesita más cantábile. Más expresión. Esta obra es extremadamente difícil de interpretar, más que de "tocar".

[@kuniohorikoshi1723]

A state of the recording is unnatural.

I have been playing the guitar for many years, teaching the guitar. My opinion: this is not music, but a set of sounds. It may be something else, but this is not for the guitar. Such works have nothing to do with the guitar! And don't argue with me !!

[@parishadnz.6048]

Marry me please!!!!!!;-)
