N. Paganini - Three Sonatas for Guitar

[@phxartistaz]

The fact that Paganini was a skilled guitarist, even playing duets with Lignani, shows without a doubt in his guitar compositions. Complete mastery.

[@mattnsim]

I can’t believe this is Paganini. I’m uneducated, I’ve only ever heard his technical gymnast pieces. Tremendous playing as always.

[@glennlubomirskynovitch3254]

Paganini has composed a lot of guitar pieces and sonata for guitar. Beyond the violin he was playing guitar as well.

[@nelsonmartinmusic]

My 5-month-old son broke into a huge grin within the first few seconds. Lovely.

[@DrewHendersonGuitar]

Awww I love that!

[@Gordito158]

Thanks!

[@hougrel9514]

It's one of lifes greatest pleasures when a musician and their instrument are as one being their thoughts and feelings being perfectly transported.

[@DanFromIran]

each frame is a masterclass. Thank you again maestro.

[@DrewHendersonGuitar]

Thank you Dan for you generosity!!

[@platinocyanide]

Absolutely gorgeous renditions of these pieces, it always puts a smile on my face when Drew uploads a new video!

[@robertbporter]

I’ll 2nd that!

[@kenattorri4498]

Your exquisite videos are a joy to lovers of classical guitar. Thank you!

[@DrewHendersonGuitar]

Wow! Thank you so much, that's very generous of you! It's the support/kindness of people such as yourself that remind me of how worthwhile this venture is.

[@WesWaagenaar]

That 19th century style guitar is perfect for this kind of music. Amazing playing as always!

[@DrewHendersonGuitar]

Thank you! I totally agree and will get one of my own one day…cameras and mics are expensive though haha!

[@Thisisclassicalguitar]

Fantastic performance Drew, these are better than I thought at first glance of the scores.

[@DrewHendersonGuitar]

Thanks so much! I had the same reaction to the scores at first, then Matteo played a handful in concert and it opened my eyes a little to these quirky little pieces.

[@achimrecktenwald9671]

Paganini wrote interesting sonatas for violin and guitar. There is a CD from the 1990s with Gil Shaham and Göran Söllscher. It was for a while one of the best selling classical CDs. I saw it also here on KZbin: "Paganini for Two", DG recording

[@DrewHendersonGuitar]

Oh wow that takes me back, I have that CD! I am toying with the idea of playing the Duo concertante.

[@KenIn_NH]

The perfect trifecta of amazing musicianship, finely crafted instruments and wonderfully recorded. THIS is what music is all about and a true joy to behold. Thank you and Bravo!! 👏👏

[@epipen22]

Your next coffee is on me! Thanks.

[@DrewHendersonGuitar]

Thank you so much Dan! Your generosity is much appreciated 😊

[@Josh.Vanjani]

Well played and interpreted, Drew, bravo! I was pleased that your performance’s aim was authenticity. Ten cents down from Standard is close to what the Vienna Opera’s tuning was in 1834 (A=436.5), which was during Paganini’s lifetime (according to Johann H. Scheibler). The Nylgut was an ideal tonal match, though I’d still be eager to hear gut strings on that guitar someday!

[@DrewHendersonGuitar]

Thank you very much Josh! Really appreciate the support/kindness. I didn’t actually know that fact about the tuning, thanks for sharing. To be honest i’m tuning all my guitars lower now since recording the Chopin in D-flat. Aside from sounding a little more rich, the loose strings slow down the nail wear (which is why I use some fakes). Thanks again!!

[@mariosoccini2517]

Stupende esecuzioni !!!

[@philtanics1082]

Awesome thanks, Paganini's 37 sonatas are some of my favorite pieces for guitar and Im glad someone as skilled as yourself puts out some beautiful recordings like this of them.

[@rafaelnods]

With pleasure, listening from Brazil.

[@MichaelBemmels]

Sounding fantastic! I had heard and played part of the Sonata in A No. 26 before, but the other two were new to me.

[@Peter-vd9wi]

I find Paganinis guitarmusic a little banal sometimes but not in your hands!! Thanks for bringing life to this music😀🙂

[@davidbraid8429]

Extraordinary clarity and interpretation- well done!

[@dfunited1]

Just learned Paganini was also an amazing guitarist! Thanks for posting this and thanks TwoSet for leading me here

[@alexandreluizalves]

This is superb. Musicality at the limit. Pure insane playing. Wish you could come to give a Concert here in Brazil,professor! Congratulations

[@BillyIn8k]

[@RickLord1]

Wonderful performance of these Sonatas - must have a closer look! The guitars are gorgeous. Lighting and sound superb. Thank you Drew for the beauty expressed.

[@tobiasnilsson8934]

Absolutely gordeus! Great guitar sound! Very well played indeed! Respect! Do use two different guitars? Notised to head and the different colours! Thanks for nine minutes of pure pleasure! Greetings! //Tobias

[@DrewHendersonGuitar]

Thank you very much! Yes, the first piece is on a 622mm LaCote inspired guitar. The other 2 pieces are on a 630 (I think, see the description). I gotta say, I really love the feel and colour of these Romantic guitars.

[@hannah51238]

Absolutely beautiful!! ❤❤❤

[@humphreyterveer1338]

Beautiful sound and technic 👋👋

[@filipvavra6177]

You play really beautifully, it's unbelievable how clean your playing is, I listen to you on hi-end headphones and I don't hear any dirt. The musical instrument also has an amazing sound. What kind of guitar is that? Excuse my bad english

[@michaelvaladez6570]

Dirt ?

[@rykehuss3435]

@@michaelvaladez6570 String noise, slides, squeals, imperfections to the tone. Though I can hear them just fine when theyre present. Maybe Filip is going deaf. Dont get me wrong, its beautifully cleanly played. I dont think there are too many guitarists in the world who could play these pieces cleaner.

[@maximilianperstl]

@@rykehuss3435 Calling someone deaf because he can't hear certain subtleties in articulation. It's ignorance that sprouts the finest musicians. Right?

[@tomllewellyn4189]

This is gorgoeus playing 🙏

[@TioCocolDG]

Que destreza y sentido para acariciar la guitarra de esta manera. Estoy asombrado.

[@AMWE-gh7ti]

Paganini has been kind to write something like this for guitarists 😎

[@peterney2402]

Paganini was known to have said that he preferred the guitar to the violin and was often seen walking around the countryside playing his guitar.

[@umbertoceccon8775]

Очень красивая игра и с душой Удачи маэстро

[@blackcatgraphics1483]

Wonderful performance! I was wondering if the guitars you featured had jumbo frets, or maybe it just appeared that way from the photography? I love the feel of thick fret wire, and wondered why builders don't seem to use it on acoustic guitars. Probably a traditionalist mentality, or something.

[@zbaby82]

Very nice.
