I love listening to this over and over again at work. I feel like a King who has the best musicians in the land play for him, just for his pleasure. How lucky are we today.
Many take for granite
I feel exactly the same.
@@ogedeh Those accursed stone thieves.
This player and piece is inspiring 10/10 thank you and Brava
granite lol
As a 25 year guitar player she gave me the confidence to sell my guitar to a pawn shop.
LOL
been there, done that ._.
LOL, I know how you feel brutha! \m/
I just keep buying more of them, hoping to find the one that makes me master the thing with no effort whatsoever I'll find it soon, I think
It’s not the guitar!
Ana Vidovic doesn't play the guitar, she dances on the strings. AMAZING
Her precision is astonishing, incredibly fluid playing. Every note is as clear as a bell.
Not a single error. Absolute master
one error at 9:03. note was muted
I am reminded of a story about Pau Casals in the recording studio. No matter how many “takes” he was asked to perform he always had one error, always in a different place in the music. When the sound man asked why, he just shrugged.
Excelente. Guitarrista. Y formidable. Instrumento e interprete
This is the real reason the internet exists.
There are other good reasons to keep it around, and lots to trash it and start over and do better next time, hopefully. Absolutely entrancing performance.
Definitely one of them. There are many many more though. Things to be learned, explored, etc. Math, science, REAL world events, not the nonsense from the old school media, people's takes on every subject, from students to masters. Mastery level presentations of all kinds of subjects, and people demonstrating the other side with videos like time grabs of learning violin, etc. which are often interesting and sometimes pretty amazing. Also a lot good humor (sometimes even intelligent humor) often lacking in standard presentations, as well.
@@Debilitator47 When have you EVER seen an endeavor of man not have problems? And I disagree, the restart would turn out no differently, and something like governmental control would absolutely destroy its value. As far as I'm concerned there is something for everyone. There is absolutely no requirement for it to conform to your taste, or mine. It is as simple as a click to enter something you are interested in, and a click away to leave, if not. AND you can access anything at any time. What could be better than that? If it's not illegal or spreading hate, I say go for it. The best thing of all is it gives everyone a voice. Many are idiots (moon hoaxers, flat Earthers, etc.), I'll grant you, but giving them an outlet, meeting the above criteria, is in my opinion, not a bad thing. And for that matter, trolling some of more extreme morons, like the ones mentioned above, is a lot of fun. Some excellent humor available there, as well. The creativity is almost beyond belief, as well, again in a myriad of areas, all of them really, except maybe the flat Earthers. :-) I would rank the internet as probably the best thing that has ever happened to mankind, actually. Not perfect, not by a long shot, but all out excellent. There is even some excellent wit available in the comment sections, occasionally. Like the one I saw a while back that flat Earthers are like a pigeon that has been invited to play chess. They fly in, knock all the pieces over, crap all over the board, and then fly away, declaring themselves the winner. See?
@@MrJdsenior we, the Flat-Earthers, think you're a moron too. I hope you don't mind. We had a lot of fun reading your comments. Please, keep up the good work. Cheers!
I agree and tend to think that at least half of what is online is worse than a waste of time.
How in the WORLD does she remember a solid hour of endless notes? Exquisite skill and amazing memory!
One word: *PRACTICE*
Yep. Practice. 6 hours a day for 10 years or so and you start to remember the repertoire.
One does not memorize every note in a piece but rather shapes and patterns. Chord patterns and shapes and muscles memory takes care of the test
My dad can sit in the bathroom cause he likes the acoustics in there playing most of these songs from memory. But he has been playing these same pieces over and over for at least 40 plus years
After getting into music for a handful of years, the ability to memorize music just naturally develops. One thing that helps is not using sheet music after you learn a song. Overall it isn't like remembering all the words in a chapter of a book. After some practice and skill with a song, muscle memory leads the charge to where the music almost plays itself. Also, after diving into music for a while, your ability to recall and understand music in general goes way up, which sort of pairs with your increasing skill and familiarity with an instrument, as you will, in a way, play the music by ear, even though you already know the piece. Patterns and chunks is part of it, and that will depend on the instrument, to where something like the bow hand of a violinist benefits from getting used to the pattern of playing since there is more movement so the pattern is more defined. Something like picking strings with a guitar wouldn't be affected as much since the movement is much smaller and with less variation. There's also the mental part of patterns/chunks, as in the way your mind thinks of and understands the music. Also (again), playing more active parts/pieces helps with memorization - like if you are playing in an orchestra and you have lots of rests and may only play like three notes before going back to a rest, that becomes harder to remember. Something like a solo piece or the melody part in an ensemble would be easier to remember, which sounds counterintuitive, but all the sections string together better and the melody is more obvious - as in, playing harmonies or supporting parts wouldn't be as easy to remember as it is harder to tell how that part fits in with the whole piece as it is only one small part of the whole and doesn't carry as much recognizable melody. At least, that has been my experience. Overall, remembering music is something that stops being an issue relatively early in your musical journey and being able to play/practice for over an hour from memory is not much of an ask at all. As others have pointed out too, it is a little hard to explain to someone if they don't have a little bit of music listening/instrumentation experience.
A truly gifted performer with very beautiful countenance, yet she's so modest and polite. No breaks yet flawless performance, and even tuned the guitar without playing a note. Wow wow, what a lady.
Just takes your breath away. Amazing virtuosity of sound, interpretation and technique.
I love football, but makes me more proud of being Croatian the fact that Ana Vidovic knows to play Bach in such a beautiful fashion than all the glory of the Croatian Football Team....
She is singing the glory to Croatian football team here
How anyone can sit there and play like that for an hour without messing up any notes is beyond me
Yes! Sometimes I sit down to play and fudge the very first note!
Practicing 23 hours a day. *Does that count?*
The most beautiful woman I ever saw play the most beautiful guitar I ever heard God bless you
Such a brilliant classical guitarist. Her technique is outstandingly flawless. Absolute dedication pours out from each note. Bravo!
I've been playing electric guitar for over 30 years. I never cared for classical guitar until I heard a concert by Ana Vidovic. Now I can't get enough of her playing. I listened to some concerts by others to test my newfound interest and they left me feeling flat. I wonder if it's just me or if her talent is really that outstanding? Anyway, I take my pleasures where they come. Thank you, Ana. I hope you have a many more years to play for us.
Try Julian Bream.. his phrasing and musicality has never been matched a true maestro. The greatest ever.
try david russel. lagq, etc.
Thanks for the suggestions!
"Asturias? I'll try." -- That was an understatement of astronomical magnitudes.
No kidding lol
Tactile and exact playing. Wow. Even a special request at the end! My goodness!
Spectacular. Final Boss level skill in a superb performance.
Peaceful beauty matched with mesmerizing talent, that took tens of thousands of hours to hone, deserves nothing less than my total admiration. It's an honor to see and hear such ability.
Bravo, Ana, amazing! Greetings from Croatia to the Croatian Queen of the Guitar.
Today is my first day of listening to Ms. Vidovic. I an breathless. Glory be to life for guiding me to her.
Maravillosa. Musica. Con una precision muy buena y el instrumento con una gran soniridad guitarra. Artesanal. Siccas. Guitarras. Los. Bajos. Profundos. Y brillantes. Fuertes agudos. Guitarra. Completa supera a toda guitarra. Como. Ramirez. Hauser con quien tocaba. Segovia y otras mas es otro sonido. Superior. Mas parecido al piano es casi la petfeccion del. Nuevo instrumento.

Son co.o. siccas y otras que suenan brillantes sonidos redondo profundo asemeja al.piano son extraordinaias
Glory to the algorithm !
I’ve also been listening to Marcin who has a completely different style but can also play classical beautifully. It’s nice to have variety. Give him a listen.
When I was little my grandmother told me that angels play the guitar. It is true!!!!
Wow, she just keeps getting better all the time. Just awesome. Thank you for presenting her too.
Such sublime Bach playing. And then just playing the Asturias as a request. Ms Vidovic, I am at your feet.
2 yrs late to the concert- I can’t believe I missed this masterpiece of a performance. I’ve been following Ana’s career since she was a child and you will not find a more musical guitarist. The comment that her guitar is an extension of her MIND is absolutely correct. Her voice separation is uncanny -she often sounds like an ensemble. That goes far beyond just “technique”.
I see technique
When a musician is One and the Same with their instrument - like Ana - listeners are in heaven without needing to die.
She has still the same eyes from an old video playing Adelita (Tarrega) with images of childhood with her mother. She's amazing. She's perfect.
What a guitarist! I have hardly ever heard such a clean sound and fluent technique.
yes - i think a computer could not have created the notes any more accurately and beautifully!
Thanks for healing my soul as well as my body with this music. I'm about to cry when I see those nice comments. I need it most🥺 Thank you
Whoever made that request, I thank you and Ana for playing it so Beautifully.
I’ve always believed in another dimension, a parallel world where everything is pure and beautiful....I just found it. Wow, thank you Ana. What a gift
"pure and beautiful" - but still with KZhead in it? !
Its as if the angels on high are in attendance !!!!
@@adrianwright8685 is like driving a car without acknowledging that it was built by someone else, how stupid
that's beautiful. Every youtube video concert should be like this : no noise in the background
Shared this with my young grandson who is learning Classical Guitar. Beauty. God's Goodness made visible to the senses. DWillard
Absolute joy to watch and listen to. Extraordinary that she took an audience request and played it to perfection.
Thank you to all who attended the live premiere!
Thank you for bringing us this incredible musician.
Do you really need to ask for donations beforehand?
The first thing you enter the church is show reverence to the consecrated altar. And if the Tabernacle candle is lit, that is the sign the Body of Christ is in there. May be the acoustical element is ideal but it is inappropriate to have a guitar show inside the church. This is what the Catholic Church teach our children and here the adults doing the opposite. No wonder 80% of the catholic don't go to church and 90% don't know their faith.
@@bombaway2029 .... This is St. Marks LUTHERAN Church in San Francisco, CA.
@@MikeMoralesTequilaSensei Thank you!
Asturias without any "spectator coughing" A M A Z I N G !
Her phrasing , touch and control are on an unbelievable level . A grand master of her craft. Brava
I feel blessed to hear such amazing talent. Absolutely beautiful!
Her fingers look like the legs of the spider traversing a web. So precise, yet delicate and deadly! I had intentions of playing this video in the background while I worked but I cannot look away from this tab. She has this beast completely entranced. The Presto is beyond words!
You must be refering to the elusive kickboxer spider. Deadliest legs in all the spider kingdom lol. But yeah, I totally agree.

Thank you, I love you so much great and honest man
Thank you my friend, but that already is noticed in the introduction?
God bless
Yes! Thank you. This should be pinned
Protect Her at All Costs. Flowers blossoming in the desert.
To every person reading and listening to this; magical miraculous things are headed your way! Every good and positive seed you've sown will return to you with a hundred fold return! Be blessed!

My god is she smooth. Theres no trace of her hand making any transition from chord to chord. Just amazing tonal quality.
I agree, so smooth. The squeaks from the guitar strings are almost not there. But you can hear them sometimes. Personally I dont bother about them, they are a part of the guitar sound, as I see it. If you have new strings they are stronger, but I think this time with Anas wonderful playing and a very good uptaking sound they have been diminished.
she uses lotion to her left hand fingers to avoid shifting noise.
@@staffanolofsson8201 It adds to it for me. Reminds me that it's a human playing an instrument and not computer made haha
@@tundrabancho7207 Dear Tundra, a computer can never have this hm hm... carisma, feeling, human touch. This is perfect in the most human way, a computer makes this too perfect, and then it looses its humanity.
I trained her well
May I breathe now? Wow! The performance was indeed matched by the technical skill of those who captured it and presented it to us, especially Ms. Vidovic Like a string of perfectly matched pearls, no one section or segment stood out, but as an ensemble it was priceless and truly one of a kind! Time stood still for that whole hour. Bravo to all of those involved. Sincere thanks to y’all.
Total mastery of the instrument, the guitar is suffering to produce the sounds demanded from it! Bravo!!!
Beautiful and Real Musician ❤🎉😎🙏👏👏👏👏
Ana Vidović has a remarkable and versatile technique. She makes complex and beautiful music look easy. Thanks so much for posting.
I heard her play for the first time today. Imagine a random stranger giving you a beautiful gemstone to keep in your heart. A joy for life :-)
Hearing someone like her play, is a great privilege, and it always made me want to practice more.
Her control is frightening and the guitar seems to be an extension of her mind. The music has a clarity and is bewildering. I've always loved the Classical guitar and the notes fall like drops of rain on a summer evening. Tremendous invention. God bless Ana Vidovic.
“ drops of rain…. “ beautiful, thank you so much .. I can’t think of the appropriate words to describe her abilities to my self. Even the fluid moves ( between crisp perfectly timed strikes are lovely to watch) . I’m sure this is watch angels listen to on their night off delivering messages of hope , love and peace and healing to us flawed humans ) ❤
Edit “ watch “ to “ What “ but post likely , but both are correct….!?! She lifts my heart in ways I could never expect and would love to share a room with a performance…..
one of best concert ever seen, she's an amazic musician
It's refreshing to hear her music without people constantly coughing.
Lmao
Je me suis dis pareil en regardant le concours reine Elizabeth ... Mais je préfèrerais quand même pouvoir y assister en vrais.
No kidding !! A very self-controlled mob !
@@rafaelcarmany463 then what you like to see and realize is not mob or people or human-beings but a bunch of robots..
How about to think that those listener and audiences are human-beings and surely all of them do understand that making noises are not suitable? But if a cough or sneeze comes then it is so and should be also fine!
You play beautifully. Thank you, Omni, for sharing it with us on KZhead.
She quickly became my favorite classical guitarist of all time.
I'm so lucky, I've watched this concert and no ad interrupted it!
KZhead suggested this video. I haven't heard of Ana or heard her perform before. But she is special. I wonder how playing this music makes her feel and how it has blessed her over time.
This piece demonstrates the guitar's versatility, blending different styles seamlessly.
As a lifetime rock guitar player, vintage Fender Stratocaster irremediable enthusiast, this concert let me speechless...
The opening J.S. Bach.... Absolutely amazing....
Don't care if it is in a church, buddhist temple, or any other acoustically favorable location. Listening to Miss Vidovic is always a win. 👏
C'en est même bouleversant, voir cette femme, seule avec sa guitare, assise, offrant de telles merveilles musicales, avec autant de talent, de passion. Un vrai tableau de maître dans ce décor. Je ne sais pas pour vous, mais moi j'ai trouvé ce concert émouvant et bouleversant.
No matter how difficult the passage every note absolutely precise and clear. Beautifully amazing.
Thank you for making Ana Vidović's majestic guitar performance available to everyone around the world. Thank you from Colombia. Gracias!
I LOVE Anas touch and clarity - A lute sort of sound - how lucky we are to have Ana Vidovic in our World to enjoy her hard work. But she makes it look so easy. She plays with passion and her take and interpretations have a musically deep and masterful approach - honoring the composers. BRAVO !!!!!
The Asturias in the encore was incredible, especially since it wasn't on the program and so she wouldn't have spent much if any time rehearsing this piece immediately prior to the concert. And yet she played it flawlessly with all the dynamics and emotion that is the core to this most incredible piece of music. Brava!
feel honored to leave a comment here. it is just so amazing that no one could resist the temptation of the music.
She is absolutely magnificent, and truly one of the finest musicians alive today.
@Jack Strawb such an ignorant statement Jack. I assume you’re a youngster.
@@David_Hicken He's just a troll do not give it attention
Her right hand efficiency is just stunning. That takes extreme focus and dedication of many years. So good to hear such excellent interpretations, but also be able to see absolutely wonderful technique
She's an angel comforting us with her heavenly music.
A beautiful woman as well. Here, she looks like a young Kate Jackson of Charlie's 😇 Angels.
How come such a beautiful sound come from a guitar?
This is the classical guitar style :) glad you enjoyed it!
I don't use the accolade 'genius' more than once in 50 years or so, but Mascardi playing Bach at that level creates a concatenation of natural genius that transcends 'ordinary' genius. I will watch and listen to this video for the rest of my life.
Conosco esa mucica de ase años es ladansa delas ballenas🐋🐋🐳🐳🐳🐳🐳
Wow. She is amazing. She makes every note so beautiful.
Absolutely stunning, a true artist.
I ^ ve studing classical acoustic guitar since 1979...I got to admit ...she is working in a perfect between the notes...I never have seen a concert so magical .
I do believe that this performance, above all others I've ever heard, has confirmed my suspicion that despite having owned guitars for 20+ years I have never really played one. Amazing to witness, and I thank you for sharing it!
Sublime. Art & artists still exist.
not only was this performed beautifully, the sound engineer did a great job too!
You are so right! And the natural acoustics of that hall sound amazing
I'd be interested in specifically how they mic'd it. Obviously they're far away by how little string and neck you can hear
IMO, they may have hung a mic above her head, out of camera view range
She is the sound engineer
no small accident, she even gives them a shout out at the beginning - 'great crew' - probably includes the audio-video crew
wow! This is one of those very rare moments I got stunned when music begins, and not only her music, but also her professionalism, her charisma!
The sound is fantastic, but it's beautifully filmed, too. I loved being able to see close-ups on her technique.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Yes I enjoyed watching her hands as well! Thank you.
Technical brilliance, nuance, power, humility, levitating grace and deep feeling for the music. Bravo.
She wants you.
She is such a magnificent guitarist.
GOD BLESS YOU ANA. I ADMIRE everything on You!! As a Greek neighbour, I admit, my feeling the need to hear You in a living performance . Merry Christmas!!!
not a single rustle or swishing of the cords while jumping on all those notes. wonderful and clean.
We are blessed to witness such a beautiful performance. Thank you Ana.
Ana Vidovic : extensión anatómica perfecta entre sus manos y la guitarra, Impresionante!!! Una Reyna, sin duda, de la guitarra clásica contemporánea. Tengo fe de verla alguna vez en vivo en México.
I'm 70 years old and I'm afraid I'm too late to ever learn to play like this. You keep on, you legend.
The vast vast majority of people who are a lot younger will, however, never bother to learn guitar, nor even perhaps to learn any musical instrument. So by you even picking up a guitar at age 70, and learning the absolute basics, you'll have surpassed 99% of the population even when taking into account their whole lives. So, I say to you, you keep on too!
Don't be afraid, just go for it
It's been two months now that i discoverd this concert and listen every day . Specially Bach transcription is amazing in the Ana's fingers , this gifted lady is a treasure for classic guitar.
Easy Frank, there us much more out there.
She is a once in a century artist.
@@ofoulis1125 Fraid not.
OMG those first Bach pieces played by Ana on the guitar can wrench your soul into all eternity, but then everything else as well. If ever was a performance that captured all human life, this is surely that. Bach, died in 1685, I was born in 1984, yet his Music reverberates in my soul, and the rendition of his Music on the guitar is just so meaningful... And how great is that "Asturias" encore at the end? That rendition of the classic could be the main piece in any concert.
No words I can possibly imagine will do justice to this outstanding performance!
Agreed. Blessed and or special come to mind but still seem lacking somehow.
Ana is unbelievably accomplished, musical, technically supreme and a miracle of a performer - a unique blessing to be allowed to watch and listen to.
Wow! I mean just Wow! Perfect in every way. Ana's playing could not be over stated. The venue is great. The recording engineering is perfect. Haven't seen any comments on the guitar. It's balance, tone, clarity, etc. show off her infinite skills, just as her infinite skills show off that remarkable guitar.
Glad you enjoyed it!
MAGNIFIQUE ! Merci beaucoup pour l’émotion que nous communiquez. Vôtre SICCAS fait corps avec vous et vous ne la trahissez pas. Toutes ces harmoniques qui nous font vibrer ! Je n’ai plus en🎉de vous quitter , mes oreilles non plus. Quell🎉dextérité...avec cette justesse emprunte d’une sensibilité tel le torrent puissant qui dévale la montagne ou le ruisseau à peine frémissant qui vient nous caresser. De bons micros ne nous font rien perdre de cette musicalité. Jouez encore pour nous, jouez, jouez avec votre cœur...pour le mien et tous les autres. Ils doivent être heureux et vous pouvez être fière également ! Très amicalement
She has some of the cleanest articulation I have ever heard, AND artistry as well! That is a very rare combination.
Wow! She plays with such clarity and power. I once saw Julian Bream live (he brought me to tears) and Ana has that same quality, where technical mastery gives way to pure expression. When someone does something so infernally difficult and makes it look effortless, that is when you know you are in the realm of the angels. This is an utterly sublime performance.
And watch Estas Țone!He's briliant and out of this world!
There should be THOUSANDS applauding and whistlings with shoutings! Bravo.. yeeeeeee.... hurrayyyyyy... more..... more........
Agreed! This was a closed concert filmed during the pandemic during lockdowns so only the film crew was there.
What sets her apart is that while other fine or even excellent guitarists sound beautiful (I think Pepe Romero), she has some bite to her playing - sharp, clear notes interspersed that give the music an edge that helps reveal its definition. One of a kind. I had the great pleasure of seeing her live in a small venue, where the audience could meet after the performance and briefly say hello. I asked her what she thought of Richter. Her brother's favorite, she said (her brother plays the piano). To better define what I was trying to say above, think about Richter's playing in comparison to other great pianists. With many composers, his tone is like no other. Her tone is like no other guitarist I have ever heard.
Ana you are beyond compare. Your interpretation for Bach is really amazing and the best....👍👍👍
I think I just listened to 60 minutes unedited of someone playing classical guitar and not making a single mistake
There were a few, e.g. in the first Scarlatti piece, but they were minor and didn't distract from the stellar performance.
@ 3:43 9th fret, index finger E string.
If she made a mistake she plays so fast you won't know it. Unfettered speed is not the definition of musicality.
@@sandman7623 thanks, Kurt.
To your ears, I would think not to hers. To be at that level you can never be satisfied. After the performance, she might reflect and think parts of the performance were not her best. Keep working to do better.
Que pureza, que dios te guarde ese don... saludos desde España, donde sabemos algo de guitarras
God bless You Ana
Almost half million views with a classic guitar...everything is not ruined in the world

@@johncourtright1632 amazing
The most exquisite classical guitar playing I have ever seen. I was mesmerized - I couldn’t take my eyes off her fingers working their magic. Bravo Ana, Bravo!
ANA Thank you for sharing your hard work 😮
Her playing is inspirational and beautiful . What an incredible talent . I can’t imagine how many hours and years of dedication and practice to do this . Real self sacrifice in the service of the music . Dear Ana thank you for inspiring us during these horrible times . To find peace and beauty when surrounded by a world filled with hatred .
A Bachelor of Music curriculum has a 5-year Term regardless of your Major and Minor, but entrance to the College passing their respective AUDITION is a pre-requisite. That means enrolling in a college of music, one must have enough music theory and playing skills, already. During your 1st day in Theory class, the professor wont open page 1 of your DANHAUSSER anymore, probably he or she will ask the students to open it somewhere page 54 or more advance pages (I'm telling a personal experience when i took BM Composition / Voice at UP, Diliman College of Music (Philippines). Thanks.
@@donjim5102 Thank you for sharing. It truly is one of life's most rewarding pleasures.
Hours and Days and Weeks....You never perfect the instrument!
She inspires practice:)
I hope I'm a classical guitarist in my next life.
