OK…what are the changes from 2:09 to 2:11?????
His technique is pretty incredible, but his style isn’t my favorite. In my opinion, he’d be the ultimate jazz guitarist with a small walking bass, and a bit more groove (a la Joe Pass, but on steroids). I will say I prefer his sound on a jazz box over that of an acoustic.
omg his technique is /drool
formidabile
I like the harmonics at 1:40!
I hear it.
This is one of the best videos on youtube.
Ha ha haaa! Well place!
this is a performance with fantastic soul and Birelì doesn’t need to show us how well he knows guitar but let his fingers caress those strings and may he always progress like he has for a very long time for all of us to savour his talent.
yeah!!!scotty and bireli!!!!!!!!!!!!!but it will be not reasonable!!!so crasy!
Does anyone else hear that melody from the godfather at about 0:27? he re-harmonizes it in a way that tries to disguise it… or maybe it’s coincidence.
Bireli plays it all!!
Does he ever run out of gas?
I want to see he and Scotty Anderson get together. That would be for the ages!
maby but i reckon workin’ hard we still have a chance
He started playing when he was 3 weeks ancient,
so I guesse we’l reach his standard or thereabouts sometime in our 80′s if we can still hold our guitars then.
A JAZZ GUITAR HEROE!
Like it. But only the start is solo jazz guitar they should retitle
How does he make it look so effortless, blessed from the heaven’s I guess!
Punaise, si il pouvait jouer tout le temps comme ça !!!!
Imho, Bireli is one of the most fluid and natural improvisors ever. The thing that I like about his playing is that it consistently surprises me. It is like he taps into an endless fountain of musical thoughts. The way he plays is often so intricate it leaves me scratching my head, but is always still so gorgeous and tasteful. It’s like he has complete freedom of expression. That’s right musicianship.
i agree!
so naaaaaatural !
Respect Birelli.You are the best
Yes you must be careful there- don’t want to de-sensitize
