My Guitar Students Hear Tina S for First Time- Moonlight Sonata

[@IA_Information_Paris]

Her teacher Renaud LOUIS-SERVAIS interview 16/3/2022 : "Thank you for reacting to this video of my little protected Tina. I had the chance to teach her the electric guitar from the age of 13 to 18, and I also filmed and produced all these videos at that time in my studio. I must say that she never disappointed me, what a prodigy she was... a small precision concerning this version, it is an arrangement made by the incredible Italian guitarist, Michele "Dr Viossy" Vioni, who was kind enough to let us use his version." Renaud "I made her work on a lot of pieces, but only a part was the subject of videos. On the other hand, everything that has been filmed is online."

One of the greatest guitar players ever

[@bradwilliams2081]

Her right hand is unbelievable. She is a force of nature.

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

Yep

[@greggwilliamson]

Random guitar student: "That was beautiful...I QUIT!!"

[@kevinmarch4259]

It’s amazing how she barely looks at the neck of her guitar.🔥🎸🔥🎸

[@AC-ju5yu]

If she looked at the neck it would slower down. If she had to think about the notes it would slower her down.

[@wolfedan3]

I think that it is great that you shared this with your students. I remember sharing this with lots of friends right away after I had seen it. Just amazing.

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

Yeah they need to know what’s possible…. I wanna show it to the other guitar teachers too!!! ✌️ 🙏

[@joeroubidoux2783]

Outstanding to show this to your students. If we all strive for perfection we just might achieve excellence.

[@CarlD70]

Can't wait to see the reaction to Steve Vai and Attitudes as well Michael...mind blowing to say the least... Great that you brought your students in to see what is possible in another world..😁😁. Hope they enjoyed watching a prodigy at work. Thanks Mike

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

Jorja doesn’t even know Steve Vai yet. One step at a time. 😂 Amrith does though. He’s into shred and he’s very good at it. They were both blown away for sure. 🙏

[@CarlD70]

@@michaelgoyettemusic Oh My, wait to Jorja gets a look at the Steve Vai cover Tina does...Epic. Will you show them a Steve Vai vid first before the Tina S? Just wondering.. always nice to get a taste of the original first.

[@derekpetersen7571]

Your students need to check out more of her masterpieces thank you for doing this one we can’t get enough of Tina she is a joy to watch you just need to go to her site and just pick one or get your students together and let them decide great reaction

I concur. Nah, SHOW 'EM!

[@joeyc630]

Definitely have them check out her dragon force cover, awesome 😎👍

[@larrycurrid8626]

Every time I watch Tina, I want to cry with joy. 🥲 I see something new about her playing almost every time I watch her. To say she is astonishing is a profound understatement ❤

[@Biomirth]

Might as well expose them to the very best of the best, Tina Setkic. I sent this to my sister in law a few years ago when she was studying guitar. Never heard a word about it.

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

Either she didn’t watch it or she’s a jealous person. 🤔 Tina is that good.

[@IA_Information_Paris]

Tina learned electric guitar at 13 y.o. and began tapping after 6 months, see her Van Halen video at 14 y.o.

[@deansouthwick1906]

Hopefully this didn’t scare your students off! One thing very few people mention is that even while she’s playing 7 notes per second through this - her pinch harmonics throughout are clean and hung on to just long enough to accentuate them. God, I love watching her play. ONE MORE MONTH until her new album/band Spin Twice’s release.

[@scottdawson8844]

Show them 'Through the fire & Flames' & Vai's 'For the love of god' Have a good day

[@robertcrompton2733]

The Moonlight Sonata is an emotional composition to begin with, then to see it performed with such commanding virtuosity, I start crying - just can't help myself.

[@dack6528]

Tina S went to High school and has never posted another vid. Edit. Well she's back, and in a band :-kzbin.info/www/bejne/oX_YkmB4os2sl9k&ab_channel=TinaS

[@Riley_Toxic]

Notice, she had a hair tie or band of some sort that the end of her frets which is often used by many guitarists with songs that make a lot of use of tapping.

[@chrissmith1011]

Tina is a monster!!!!!!!!

[@LuisNunes-ps4sl]

Show them Unleash the Archers, Awakening. Quite a lot of tapping, in a full band session. And wait to see their bassist's technique, if you haven't... 🎸🎸

[@gregoryjamessnayer7271]

Tina Setkic - born 27 April 1999. This cover was done in 2016 when Tina was seventeen. Last year, 2023, it was discovered that she plays for a band named "Spin Twice".

[@srt8rocketship241]

You van plainly see her classical training in the position of her guitar and her chord fingering. She is so damn great that the haters dove on her. I think she got more positive reaction though. Love her precision. Imagine playing this through for this vid. How many takes i wonder? Maybe one.

[@DaveLea-n6n]

It sounds like something that would have been in the movie crossroads

[@ChaoticMisfit]

I would have loved to have seen how big she would be right now fi she didn't step away to focus on school. The talent she had at such a young age was mind blowing.

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

In another dimension maybe. ✌️

[@kuplung22]

She is in the band now

[@ericsicard910]

You should check her covers of Altitudes and For the Love of God as well. You won’t be deceived and you will discover she has also a lot of feelings behind the obvious virtuosity.

[@wolfedan3]

I agree.

Just to broaden their horizons a bit you might show them some Tory Slusher videos. She's equally prodigious but leaning more jazz/fusiony. She has some of the best two handled and finger playing technique out there, and is a very good improvisor. And, unlike a lot of shredders, she's heard of quarter and half notes.

[@ken-in-KY]

Tina's back with a band of her own. You can find her and her band right here on You Tube.

[@stephenbarlow2493]

Just for your information. On Tina S's KZbin channel, there is a link to a Spin Twice Instagram account, with photos of Tina S and her band taken in the last 2 months. The last post is only from 1 week ago (as I post this on 17 August 2024), saying the band are releasing a new song "Tidal Wave" on 6th September. So don't believe the rumours that she has disappeared again. She also has her own Instagram account, but largely with the same images on the Spin Twice account. But this disproves the claim that she has not been heard of in the last 11 months.

[@jamesanderson5268]

The third movement which is what this is, is very difficult on piano, and massively difficult on a guitar. Tina S started playing when she was 8.

[@NightwishArena]

Nothing off from Tina's incredible performance, but don't just guess, go and watch Dr Viossy's version. That is even better, just flawless.

In fact according to the original partition of Dr.viossy, there are 5544 notes in 258 measures (also remember that there are some chords and that these include several notes)

[@riffgroove]

Isn't it strange how she completely vanished from KZbin after she got outed uploaded sped-up videos?

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

The videos don’t look sped up…changing speed changes the pitch and if you set the pitch back to where it was it leaves glitches and noises in audio. It’s usually not too hard to tell

[@riffgroove]

@michaelgoyettemusic That's why you pitch the original recording DOWN when you originally record it. Duh

[@tedlum9001]

Since this is at least the third time you've reacted to this, and since you're one of the few that's picked up on her, lets say, pick management technique when she taps, I though you might like to compare and contrast with Dr. Viossy: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nn3ClZ94dp6VrtE Tina appears to maintain the pick between her thumb and index finger while she taps with her middle and ring finger, which is certainly more efficient if you're able to coordinate and control that. Dr Viossy, on the other hand, appears to palm the pick with his ring finger while he taps predominantly with his index finger. This difference doesn't really have a material impact on either of their performances, though.

I seen recent pictures of Tina S, it's hard to believe it's the same person, full of tattoos and undercut hair, which looks ugly on a beautiful young lady, still playing guitar as if there's no tomorrow. 😊

[@KeepEvery1Guessing]

"Bored" is a really dumb interpretation of what's going on here. Yeah, if you're playing "The Bear Went Over the Mountain", you might have spare brain to use flirting with the audience, or mugging "see how hard this is". How many notes is this, coming how fast? Just what is it you think that she should be doing to not look "bored"?

[@kenthenricksen6918]

The funny thing with Tina S is that she looks bored in every video. Yes, the girl has talent galore, but I bet she spent many a time practicing til her fingers bled. No amount of talent grants that level of virtuoc

[@kenthenricksen6918]

virtuosity. It takes tons of hard practice too.

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

I guarantee she didn’t practice any more than I did in my formative years. Lots of ppl practice all day every day and they never get this good.

[@stephenfitts7987]

That sounded like sh*t… hurt my ears. Sounds & feels like a robot playing. Give me a song with a human playing with emotion & not a speed robot any day

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

I couldn’t figure out why she quit posting videos as a 17 year old child when she was the most technically proficient child I’d ever heard….when I heard that she had a hard time with the negative remarks I wondered who would say something negative about a child with such a a great future ahead of her? There’s no need for negativity towards a child who has more than successfully accomplished what her teacher asked of her. Sharpen your ear and you’ll hear she has a TON of feel and if you still need proof check her out playing Steve Vai or Dave Gilmour. Nothing personal, I’m sure you’re a good person or I wouldn’t have responded. ✌️
