I started playing classical guitar when I was 12 after seeing John Williams and Julian Bream on TV.
Later I got into rock and copied guitarists like Jimi Hendrix.
In my 20's I discovered jazz after hearing Jeff Beck's version of 'Goodbye Porkpie Hat'. This made me seek out the original version by Charles Mingus. After hearing that, I was determined to learn how to play jazz. This process has taken many years and I'm still learning!
Some of my favourite musicians are Wes Montgomery, Jimmy Raney, Dexter Gordon, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Charlie Parker.

Blue Bossa with VST Big Band
มุมมอง 417ปีที่แล้ว
I recently recorded some tracks with a friend who plays drums, and for this one I thought I'd try writing a big band arrangement and overdubbing it onto our recording. I wrote the arrangement in an old version of Finale, but I transferred it to Musescore for the video capture because it looked better. A great VST plugin called SINE Player Big Band was used to create the big band sounds. The vid...

Goodbye Porkpie Hat. Guitar: Gibson 175. Amp: DV Mark Little Jazz (recorded direct). For fun I decided to write a horn arrangement to go with the guitar. The head arrangement is based on Jimmy Knepper's arrangement from the Mingus Dynasty album Chair in the Sky. The rest of the arrangement is mine. The chart was written in Finale and exported to Reaper as midi files. The SINE Player Big Band pl...

Fine phrasing and tone, musical and relaxed, you've made this tune your own, greetings Vic
Julian! Such a tragedy this was not better recorded as close listening reveals this was a great performance.
There was/is literally no one as great on the Classical Guitar as this man Julian Bream🙏
Anyone else go "yeeek!" When Malcolm Arnold swung that guitar over his head? 😂
I went to see this with my Dad
Julian Bream's performances are so great and always give me strength to play music. It shows me that he was not only a very good guitarist or lute player, but also a very great musician. Thank you very much, Mr. Bream!
Croydon has been distroyed by Croydon council and will become a ghost town they allowed planners and developers impose there will on the people uncontrolled. It is now a shit Town.
Saw this broadcast as a teenager in late 80s, a great re-discovery
Yes man!
Out of all the masters, he seems like the one who could handle himself in a bar fight.
I remember watching this interview and performance. I think it was the very first programme I committed to videotape, from the TV. Imagine being able to view something again and again, at will…
. . . @grahambop . . was your grandfathers name Gibson by any chance ?
No, not gibson.
@@grahambop Ok thanks , approximately just behind the Jag at 0.50 , in a house on the left , was Col and Mrs Gibson and their son Charles ,in the late '50s . . . .the Colonel had a Jag , leather upholstry etc and i was in it a couple of times . As the vid started right out side their house i wondered if it was a Gibson film . . . 😄
got the same tour recorded on the "jazz club" french radio recorded at the pasted "petit opportun";; AMAZING
Robert Farrar Capon was right. We speak too swiftly against the Lute.
👏🏾👏🏾
you know i am forever so thankful and grateful to you guys who just decided on a particular day to dig out their cinefilm camera and venture out and record a simple standard day of life simply just passing by…and these type of videos are so so wonderful all these years later. i’m incredibly a nostalgic person in so so many ways…many many years back, i cycled all the way from wallington to berrylands station which some of you may know is over near new malden. i had with me my dads old video recorder in my rucksack and i filmed all those old slam door trains that used to thunder through the station. i was there for hours and even the drivers who had worked two waterloo to hampton court services on the bounce in their days duty would even comment at how long i had been there for when they would stop at the station on their back up working to waterloo. now it me pulling the window down and having a wee chat at clapham with a train enthusiast. awwww happy days everyone!!
The bus at 4:59 has the 'Red Rover Tickets 7/-' adverts, the bus at 5:04 has adverts for the film 'Alfred The Great' which ran at The Empire July 14-Sept 22 1969.
The bus at 1:59 has the Typhoo Tea advert that was running in the summer of 1966.
I was born in Croydon in 1952 how it has changed for the worsed what a shame
I remember the wooden constructed railway tavern on the bridge at east Croydon Station
Great concert! Johnny is one my favorites.
Paljon kiitoksia = mucho gracias. Nevuhh saw Cal. Raney never cared that much. Got bout a dozen of Cal s albums, not all but most. Check out his 50min i-view in Filius Jazz Coll ch or sth Hamilton college, has hundreds of em. Nähdään = C - ya 🇫🇮
Truly excellent.
Thanks!
Thanks a lot! I know so well the duo record, this is fantastic!
I would like to ask BBC C4 sadiq khan where were all the multi cultural peoples that built Britain they weren’t on this film an the same as many others I view I think they lie
I really love this.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
awesome
Thanks!
Masterful performance!
Great !!
Thanks! I just watched your Bach Invention no. 1, very nice!
My grandparents lived in Lansdowne Road, before it was all pulled down. They had a huge cedar tree in the back garden. East Croydon was the nearest station.
Interestingly, so did my grandmother and her de facto partner. In both 1937 electoral rolls and the 1939 Collection they are shown as resident at 53 Lansdowne Road, which was a boarding house at the outbreak of WW II. By 1942 they had moved to 56 Oval Road, just off Cherry Orchard Road down beside the east of East Croydon station. Both eventually died there, he in 1944 aged 70, she in 1973 aged 77.
shit hole now
No other classical guitarist or lutenist can compare with the skill and mastership that Bream brings to his playing. I am always making the comparison when listening to others, great as they are...
He was a genius.
Great balance in your tone. Sharp and warm the reverb sustains the high end nicely
The BBC would never broadcast this now.Too many white people!!! Very un-woke.....Diversity My Arse.
Total respect for this man!
Very nice and beautiful performance. Overall, all the musicians played very well and a funny scene where the conductor turns the page for Julian Bream in part 3. And the British humor at the end when the audience applauded. Historic performance.
Genial
Very good 👌👌
What's the term for inserting a different song's melody into a solo? Mullen is famous tor that.
I think it’s usually called ‘quoting’. Yes Jim does it a lot, often quite humorously.
When looking back to these neighbourhoods what is so sad is the level of deterioration that we have today. Once the suburbs and outer towns had houses with well tended gardens and local parks. Today the streets are strewn with debris from takeaways and look so dirty and neglected. The shop fronts are full of glaring plastic signage with nothing pleasing to add atmosphere to the high street.
Just So good, thanks for posting
Excellent!
masterful!. . .in every way!
Great stuff - thank you for posting this.
I am fascinated by how much performances of these works have changed in the intervening years. This sounds to stilted, even pedantic, now.
I make absolutely no claim to being a lutenist, yet I *do* teach music’s “sister-art,” POETRY, from the Renaissance and Baroque periods, and am familiar with much of the great lute compositions from the late fifteenth and early sixteenth to the lute accompaniments of the late Baroque and early 18th century. I also have a decent library of lute music…. I have to say, martyheresniak5203, that though I have no doubt at all that you play this remarkable instrument beautifully, and I *believe* you when you claim to be familiar with “contemporary performance styles” on the lute and related instruments such as the oud and theorbo, *I* don’t hear any “stiltedness,” or “pedantic/didactic quality to Bream’s playing. Is it that Bream always did his absolute best-as in his charming performance of The Earl of Essex’s Galliard for Queen Elizabeth I--does what you are calling the “pedantic” quality of his playing inhere within his determination to capture the spirit of the age from which the composition he is performing hails? Or does it have to do with Bream’s seeming at times quite “textual,” whereas lute performances were originally both “notational” *and* improvisational, in which the lutenist “realised” chordal accompaniments? I was simply intrigued by your comment--as I have always been an admirer of Bream, and had never heard anyone lay the charge of being “pedantic” at his door before. Would it be possible for you to say more with concrete examples to illustrate your point, possibly?
@@MrMalvolio29 I meant exactly what I said. Stilted as in his rhythms are preciously exact and pedantic as in I feel nothing from his playing: it seems very rote, this-is-how-it-goes, let-me-show-you-how dry. I much prefer the more recent interpretations of Smith or more so Dunford. Bream brought the lute out of historical curiosity and knocked the dust off, but more recent players have oiled the wood and made it all sound much less creaky.
Brilliant thanks 🙏👍
Una belleza esa música interpretada por el genio de Bream !!!Saludos desde Patagonia Argentina
RIP amazing Battersea Boy 🙏🌷🌷🤲
absolutely killin'
Wow This guy is Great > ! He looks like me ! But I am no where as good as he ! ? What is this Instrument ? Wow Really nice !!!! Julian Rest in Peace !
