Sor Etude in E minor

[@kemalkis]

A very good counter proof of: playing a piece fast and flawless does not always mean "playing good". The important thing is to embed the soul. A very beautiful interpretation of this lovely study. I loved your playing. All the best.

[@williamfarmer3841]

One of my favorite Sor compositions. Thank you.

[@oldmanandthesea7039]

Hi Samantha, lately I fell in love with this little gem by Sor that I watched videos of it by more than 10 artists, then I came across yours. Your interpretation is super, bringing out the emotions that I believe Sor intended. I subscribed to your channel and hope that you will upload more videos like this one. By the way, I personally find this etude very spiritual, having the calming effect on me as the “Ave Maria” by Schubert and by Gounod. Thanks for posting. Have a good performance at your event!

[@vibrukacomposer3522]

Been watching this performance for years. Just beautiful

[@mauschelminder]

You are playing this wonderful piece with so much soul. I really like it! Thank you

[@FusedAndLovingIt]

Wonderful. Your isolation of the melody is superb.

[@Chacal_Puant]

Clearly one of the best interpretations on YT !

[@conlamusicaaotraparte6206]

Samantha, your performance of this beautiful piece is simply gorgeous! I'm working on it myself these days and I'm aware of the big difficulties of some passages....but you simply seem to glide over them gently and happily. I love this slow, no-rush, approach you take. Moreover, the phrasing and dynamics are full of beauty and expression. Thank you. You're an inspiration. Rodrigo

[@xjojoxbmbm]

Your playing is amazing! The interpretative quality you add on these pieces often regarded as "simples" is astonishing! The melody sings in your hands!

[@philvanderheit5985]

C'est toujours beau quand c'est joué avec le cœur, alors on se laisse aller et apprécie ; heureux d'être en vie ! Merci !

[@iampetergriffin]

Beauuuutiful playing. Such gorgeous dynamics and time.

[@bathshebaprzygocki8058]

Lovely music followed by a beautiful smile. Thank you.

[@1946gsp]

Wonderful! I’m currently learning this piece. Observing your left hand is a real help. What a great performance. Loved it. Thank you.

[@LuisMartinez-vp2ec]

Great Samantha!! I am an old man dreaming of playing guitar at a "decent" level but I realize I am running out of time. Nevertheless, I wish I could play "one quarter" of what you play. Congratulations !! and keep uploading more of those wonderful pieces.

[@Lucygeno]

beautiful performance, congrats!!!!

[@jasonpierce-williams795]

Sublime. and an inspiration to me who is just starting and learning this piece. Many Thanks.

Absolutely brilliant interpretation of this gem. By far my favorite. You ROCK!!!

[@drgoff11]

Yes, your feeling helped me understand this tune for the first time. Thank you!

[@paulpearce1161]

I play this piece myself but you bring out a beauty I didn't know was there .Well played .Thanks.

[@AngelosNikolaou96]

I used to play this song for over a year for my guitar exams. It is a lovely song and your performance is outstanding. Loved it!!!

[@BenoitVanBleyenberghe]

Oh Samantha it so beautiful. I loved your "Sor Etude in E minor" Thank you Benoît

[@sammu5]

Thanks Benoit! All the best, Sam

[@rogeriocrispim2003]

Linda interpretação. Não pare de gravar, seus vídeos com sua música torna o mundo mais belo! Parabéns!

[@kevingearyart]

Dear Samantha, Twice I have heard you on KZbin now, playing two works, one by Villa-Lobos, the other by Fernando Sor. Both pieces and your interpretation, have "blown me away" and your guitar playing is a real revelation! Thank you so much. Your musianship is wonderful!

[@kcs4409]

You brought tears to my eyes. Thank you.

[@gtrrobster]

Very beautiful. I am learning this piece right now. So watching the fluency of your left hand, and listening closely, very helpful! Thanks!

[@eddenault]

Beautiful! I love how you listen to the music as if you're surprised by it!

[@songguitargolf]

Your play conveys a feeing that this piece is a test of temperament of consistency, calmness and patience in making music - similar in maintaining inner peace in different phases of life. Well done!

[@nonexponential]

So beautiful sound. Thank you, Sam. - Athan

[@sammu5]

Thanks Athan!

[@mozzle78]

Played with such feeling. Bravo, and thank you.

[@psstart]

It is a wonderful performance. I listened to the performances of various people, but I was moved by your performance. I was fascinated by the clear timbre after a long absence. Please let us know your charming performances to many people in the future. From a guitar-loving friend　Kazuyuki Kurata from Japan

[@SamMuirUkulele]

Thank you :)

[@glennwidelko]

Wow … you make this piece truly sing so sweetly!! 🙏

[@ClassicalJams]

[@sammu5]

Thanks Jackie!

[@ClassicalJams]

Samantha Muir You're welcome, Samantha! As time allows, I need to check out more of your work. You are an outstanding artist and I love the way you play with so much emotion, too. Have a great day! ~Jackie

[@marceloc1810]

Excelente interpretación Samantha. Cautivante. ¡Gracias por compartirlo!

[@guitarricktrue]

Really great! Love Sor etudes!

[@sammu5]

Thanks :)

[@drwklam888]

This is a very challenging piece to play perfectly. You done it very well and sensitively, Sam! My respect! LAM

[@sammu5]

Thanks LAM!

[@gracielaaguiar275]

There is a note on the 6th string that is played as an F# by all the guitar players, and Samantha plays it as a Bm, the way it was written. Although it might sound weird to some people, I personally think, Sor did it on purpose and I love it. One of the best recordings of this beautiful piece.

[@andrespascual1164]

Excelente interpretación. Felicidades.

[@tedscott1478]

Beautiful interpretation...😊

[@sammu5]

Thanks Gunter!

[@renefinch]

Samantha Muir I like this piece its one of the first I learnt by ear from Norbert Kraft when I uesd to get all these calssical guitar tapes out the library.Nice guitar tone it suits the sor style spanish very un anadaluza.Didnt know it was over 4 mins long.how much is your guitar 3 grand?

[@desatormentandome]

Bella interpretación de este estudio tan hermoso. Bravo!

[@ukefan9]

For someone to compose such interesting and simple arrangements like this it's easy to assume that all they did with their time is practise, sleep and eat.

[@sirreal6271]

Wny is it whenever Sor's studies have the number 6 they end up being a hauntingly beautiful eclair of musical tastiness!!

[@guitarioTrio]

Superbe...Très belle interprétation

[@adriencabuzel3773]

Bravo félicitations! Très belle interprétation.

[@josegarciamaldonado8705]

Maravillosa.

[@ORION-OUDJI]

quelle délicatesse ,Ces couleurs vous seyant si bien bravo^^

[@bobbyzz94]

I like Sor ... this "study" sounds really more romantic than like a etude - because you played it with the right sentiment. Best wishes - Robert

[@sammu5]

Thanks Robert! I agree, it is too beautiful to be called a "study". :)

[@silviobpas]

Samantha plays this wonderful piece both sweet and skilfully: a great moment! Etude in E minor is a marvelous tune that suggests a divine contact between Fernando Sor and the heaven's inspirations.

[@AsteroidB6120]

Superb performance. Wish I could play like you but I have short little finger and small hand span.

[@johnlay3040]

Bravo ❤

[@santinogaggiotti7581]

Hermoso.

[@patriziasolero6345]

Brava!

[@carlomurzi7808]

Bellissimo

great playing! i ve just subscrived

[@rosmanalvarado2561]

Hermosa interpretación, gracias gracias! En qué opus está contenido este estudio en E menor?

[@c.mirceatrestian588]

Fernando Sor (1778-1839, España): Estudio en mi menor, op. 6, Nr. 11 Étude in E minor, op. 6, No. 11 (from 12 etudes). Andrés Segovia, in his Collection of 20 Estudios by Sor, named this as „Étude no. 17“, but this is a very wrong, embarrasing fact.

[@lindomararagao9567]

Nice!

[@an_del]

molto bello

[@belkov44]

Браво!

[@M1736]

Genial sublime

[@Fingerlix]

It looks like you are us in your RH pinky. Is that true or is it my imagination? Anyway, this was a very beautifully played piece. Thanks for sharing
