Extraordinary talent! Thank you!

[@diydad7704]

I had started the video as background music while building a watch. At 7:35 her playing totally caught me. I just had to turn to the video and watch her play. It was just so good!

[@manuelprietorodriguez7567]

Una de las grandes de la guitarra actual..

[@davidlee4853]

The artist tapped into the very soul of the bubbling fountain at the palace. Thank you.

[@jean-francoismasson3361]

un talent incontournable !! un sens du rythme absolu, un toucher délicat et une sonorité gracieuse, un charme évident, une très grande guitariste, très grande !! bravo !!

[@jacquesfortin2644]

Thank you for this « générosité » !

[@patrickbuechel2599]

A truly wonderful set, you inspire this 72 year old Vietnam Veteran with peripheral neuropathy, I'm learning the guitar again and it's inspiring artist like you that sends me to my practice chair, thank you so much Stephanie 🤩🙂🙃😉😘

[@democafe4864]

I realise how peripheral neuropathy can deter you from your goal. As a medical doctor who has just recovered from pontine stroke and has been trying to restart playing the guitar myself, I hope you progress well with your guitar.

[@eitanart]

Stephanie Jones A wonderful classical guitarist from the first class in our world

[@tombaron2321]

Beautifull

[@donaltzaboo6907]

Amazing guitar playing from a beautiful-sweet girl.Blessed you.

[@enriquesantiago4064]

Where is she from? She reminds me of the spanish guitarrist Paola Hermosin who for a long time has explained the music she plays and the composers. Really interesting.

[@jacquesfarmer1171]

This awesome, what a player!

[@freddiefrumko4230]

I fell out of my chair tonight fourteen times out of astonishment. Reverberations of my admiration for her talent have not stopped.

[@lawcch]

you should buy her Open Sky CD from her website. SHe is a phenomenal guitarist and interpretation most guitar music beautifully and emotionally.

[@jenueljenuel4951]

Nice to listen and see, great!

[@nicolasdussart6173]

merci pour ce partage.

[@sonsuzevren61]

very good performance...

[@Tocsin-Bang]

I took a few lessons on classical guitar in the 1960s, I was absolute rubbish. Now I just listen and enjoy great music from Stephanie and a few others on KZbin! BTW they make some of the finest Scotch on the Isle of Jura.

[@clevelandclassicalguitarso7377]

Thanks for watching!

[@davepowell1661]

Jura, excellent taste.

[@aeropilot4419]

Indeed … Skye as well 😉🥃

[@manuelprietorodriguez7567]

Magnificamente interpretadas todas la obras wue componen el concierto. Y al final......que bonitos ojos tiene.

[@jurekstaropoanski1443]

Very good! Nice!

[@tonyyeekinwas498]

Que Hermosa ! Angel with magic digits.

[@BTB25647]

Amazing......breath taking.

[@박성현-r3i]

bravo! thanks

[@freddiefrumko4230]

We are waiting to discover that four or seven of our neighbors know about and have heard Stephanie Jones play music like this.Talk about discovering gold in our back yard! This is one the most valuable contributions made by CGCS over the years in this region and beyond. This aspiration is not as far reaching into fantasy land as some of the readers might believe. This is not Disney land yet!

[@simonesain2846]

Many thanks for your Piazzolla.

[@arturomontilla5073]

Miss Jones, ¡¡overwhelm!! (Some time without hering you). Abrumado por la escogencia del repertorio. The emsamble of your repertoire. Every guitar player knows how good they played last night. Todo guitarrista sabe cuan bueno fue el "toque" de ayer por la noche. From me: ¡Silence! (i hear). Great labor from the Cleveland Classical Guitar Society. My blessings.

[@arturomontilla5073]

Greater labor from the Cleveland Classical Guitar Society. My blessings.

[@clevelandclassicalguitarso7377]

So glad you enjoyed the concert -- thank you for watching!

[@EdwardKleinGuitars]

Thank you Stephanie Jones and CCGS!

[@clevelandclassicalguitarso7377]

[@JoeKool5738]

Loved it Stephanie! You seem so young to demostrate such nuance! You are beautiful both inside and out. ❤😎

[@bambangagung.s1256]

Super show ! Obrigado ! Thank you. From Brazil.

[@Степан-р6п4ф]

Fantastic! Dear Stefanie, you are the best!

[@manuelprietorodriguez7567]

Maravillosa la mañana de carnaval con su cambio de ritmo.

[@agtrst]

I have watched this video a lot. You have extraordinary talent and we are blessed that you share it with all of. My absolutely favorite piece is A Felicidade. Great arrangement and superb playing. The dynamics within this piece takes the listener through so many feelings and emotions. Hard to explain but very satisfying to watch and listen to this performance. Forever grateful.

[@VSNxx]

Beautiful! Wonderful! Excellently Done! Congratulations!

[@clevelandclassicalguitarso7377]

Thank you for watching--so glad you enjoyed the performance!!

[@bexigah]

She's incredible.

[@gustavoc.novillo6695]

Bello! bello! You are a great performer, one of a kind! Keep feeding our spirit...

[@diegoarias4316]

Tremendo, increíble,emocionante inspirador!!! Pocas veces he visto tanta capacidad técnica instrumental al servicio del corazón !!! Música en su estado más puro. Muchísimas gracias!!! Saludo y grande admiración desde Uruguay!!!

[@MostlyIC]

I'm still listening to this recording after all these months, but my favorite now is "The black cockatoo flying alone". I can't play guitar so am trying to adapt it to piano. Many thanks to Stephanie for introducing this piece !!!

[@freddiefrumko4230]

If you need an excuse to study music history for the contemporary classical guitar here is it is in splendid abundance. Bravo!

[@kennethharwood7672]

?

[@oneseeker2]

Stunningly beautiful, I don't mean just her, or the Guitar, or the Art Work, she plays beautifully, soul healing and comfort to the ears. I don't know if I've heard Classics that has touched me so.

[@pascalsolal]

She definitely has something more. I reckon it has a name: talent.

[@Gennadiypilch]

Excellent! Fantastic! Congratulations, Stephani! Bravo!

[@jesussanz101]

Beautiful performance. Thank you.

[@MrMjp58]

The world now seems to be overloaded by incredible world class guitarists. Before YT, I thought there were just a handful (maybe two or three hundred, tops). Wrong!

[@aeropilot4419]

S Jones in the top five I believe

[@stanleyrportelavalentin1103]

Absolutely amazing artist!!!

[@neilattuk]

Just stunning!

[@freddiefrumko4230]

Few activities regularly pursued for survival can take me away from hearing this lady perform music for the eighth time this week. Levels of musical tonality and emphasis for bringing to the forefront of a magnificent interpretation range from loud to soft with great skill that amounts to a dynamism not always found readily or as common in hearing in one performance as can be detected here..

[@jean-michelnadeau2833]

Most definitely one of the best renditions of Recuerdos de la alhambra on KZbin. I can only hope to have such a beautiful tremolo one day.

[@jerzyturek2975]

Stephanie you play fantastic

[@jorgea.sancheza.2706]

Wonderful

[@eduvirgesferreira2994]

Alem de maravilhisa. Encantada !!!

[@rodericksibelius8472]

This started from Francisco Tarrega, Llobett, Segovia, Bream, Williams, Parkening, Diaz and many Virtuosos and new modern Classical Guitarists are expanding the Repertoire of the most versatile musical instrument of the World: Proud of your World Class unique Artistry Stephanie, You are a GrandMaster and so Young to achieve it. God Bless.

[@gilbertorosales5317]

When it co es to art...many humans, have devoted their lives to beauty...now...Stephany, is one of them...thanks Stephany, for this magnificent gift. You share with us...

[@gilbertorosales5317]

Congratulations to everybody...Thanks...

[@gilbertorosales5317]

Thanks...Best Regards...☺

[@jeanpierre7203]

Une sacrée musicienne cette jeune femme ! Une technique qui transcende toutes les difficultés et lui permet d'exprimer un sens du rythme phénoménal .

[@robertlundstrom8061]

Wow! Best interpretation and best tremolo!

[@freddiefrumko4230]

Wonderful tone and reflective of exact playing with precision deserves a second round of us showing admiration for hearing the same performance a sixth time. Discount sales on snow tires does not match our excitement for this chance to hear this lady display these talents. We thought that discount prices for snow tire removal would be the night point of happiness in this winter. We know better now. We lasted as long as seven chances to hear the same recital today provided us satisfaction and have not tired from hearing it again..Cosmopolitan and metropolitan amazement on our part for recognizing how stunning this discovery was for us today. Thanks.

[@mikegeeguitarman8991]

Wow. What have I just seen and witnessed. Just when I was getting bored with nylon guitar I see this incredible musician. Black Orpheous was total bliss and so well arranged. A remarkable guitarist by any standards.

[@jamesstroud3230]

What a terrific concert and a terrific talent. Love her playing.

[@clevelandclassicalguitarso7377]

Thanks for watching!

[@bolinvolovan3060]

A very good selection of music, glad she played Manha de Carnaval, and Jobim’s “A Felicidade”.

[@larryrhindress2972]

Simply, music of quality!!!!

[@catire98]

This has been the guitar discovery of 2022 for me... And I'm in absolute L.O.V.E. now!

[@alvarop.guitarra6824]

Wowww....is simply excellent and espectacular, beautiful thanks for this I enjoy ir every note, every chord and every second to the concert .. Thanks again ... Are You wonderful...!!!

[@donmcneal233]

Stephanie..., discovered you a few months ago. @ 70, m'only talent is to differentiate great talented musicians & their music(s) from those who think they are & do, which is mostly noise & distasteful nonsense! Thank you for being that rare great, wonderfully talented artist. Yup.., thank you... PS! It's also crap that KZbin screws things up via breaking into a piece midway with a commercial instead an in between! Shame on them!!!

[@clevelandclassicalguitarso7377]

Thank you for watching! Sorry about the commercials...

[@bill1226]

Ty for wonderful night of listening to classical guitar

[@CapitanSombreroMotovlogs]

Thank you so much so bringing Stephanie.

[@clevelandclassicalguitarso7377]

We are so happy that you enjoyed the concert!

[@MrRolando68]

Un concentré de virtuosité, de musicalité, de sensibilité... et de beauté! un plaisir total! I love you Stéphanie!

[@ZosimoLee]

She is a goddess playing the classical guitar.

[@wystemd]

great Callahan piece and top notch performance!

[@clevelandclassicalguitarso7377]

Thanks for watching! I also love this new piece by Kevin Callahan--and Stephanie performs it so well!

[@freddiefrumko4230]

I do not care how you slice the cheese but this performance is splendid. Here we have a young female artist with knowledge and a desire to share it with her audience. Program consists of music of a recognizably short length.

[@clevelandclassicalguitarso7377]

I agree - it is a fun program to listen to!

[@jerrysalvador8721]

Magic !!!!

[@luisortiz6407]

Bello ángel tocas excelente la música latina!

What a treasure, you and your way of playing. The arrangements are brilliant. Best way to spend a sunday morning.

[@clevelandclassicalguitarso7377]

Thank you for watching!

[@rtber63]

Hey Stephanie, I enjoy every second when I see you playing your great style. I really hope that live concerts will soon be possible again and that you will play somewhere in Berlin. All the best for you and stay healthy. Best regards.

[@joaquimaragao1324]
