@@gotech25 It is SOOOOOO rare to see someone of Tommy's talent stepping back and giving an extraordinary young man an immediate opportunity. Even when he was listening to Ari play in the beginning you could see that he is actually taking in the music, allocating attention to the young man and his playing, not 'good job lets get on with it and look at me....' Tommy is pure CLASS!
Not only is Ari not nervous going up there; he is totally savoring the moment and enjoying it! Kudos to him for all his time and energy practicing and having it culminate into this lovely experience. Tommy is such a class act, and I love that he’s always encouraging the next generation.
What an absolute legend tommy is, so good of him to get that young guy up, he's a great player and what an endorsement having tommy saying he was blown away and inviting him on stage, what a class act
I love how Tommy not only invited him up, but he walked off and gave Ari the entire stage. I imagine that we will be buying tickets to an Ari concert soon!
"Would you like to play it tonight ?..." - Ari's eyes wide open ! ... What a day for him ! He will never forget that moment ! And to play the way he did in front of THE master and in public shows he still has a lot in his bag. Great technique, great confidence...Wish him the best !
Tommy is a ambassador of acoustic guitar. He is one of - if not even the - best in playing acoustic guitar and composing. He promotes others without being selfish himself. Making others great is really great. And all will win!
He's really good, and hopefully he pursues it, tho i suspect he's in the Chabad community. If so, and he chooses to live the lifestyle into adulthood, he will pretty much be confined to playing within the community, under Orthodox rules. The one relatively successful mainstream exception i can think of, and i think he was more on the "Conservative" or "Modern Orthodox" side, is Peter Himmelman.... It also helps that he's the son-in-law of Bob Dylan.... In the meantime, savor this arguably greatest guitar jam in the past 10 years: th-cam.com/video/zO8IwPbALK4/w-d-xo.html
This is how you encourage the next generation. Talent recognizing talent , provide an outlet, give some lime light, what spectacular playing this is the best guitar playing I’ve heard in a long time and for tommy to give him a space to show the world it’s just beautiful. Chills the whole time. We need more of this.
The greatest are always gracious. Tommy is unquestionably one of the greatest. His encouragement to a young player could inspire that little bit of extra inner burning that creates excellence and greatness. Ari will never forget that opportunity.
Amazing from both parties, great to see a pro help a young up and coming guitarist with an opportunity like that. Much respect Tommy and well done young man ❤

What an amazing guy to put his show on hold for someone else’s talent to shine. He took a risk doing that, and it’s really classy. How can you not love Tommy?
Man, it warms my heart when people with an audience highlight young talent in a completely ego-free way. Good on Tommy. Ari has fantastic time, feel, and dexterity. Hope to hear much more from him!
This is amazing. Not only is Tommy Emmanuel an incredible star, he is generous in giving the spotlight to others. This is what makes him so good. He is happy to share. And this kid, Ari, deserves it. We need more people like Tommy. Ari may not have seemed nervous, but he must have been, at least until he started playing. Tommy, thank you for introducing me to this wonderful young player. Chop on Ari, chop on!!!
Tommy is so generous, you can see in the jams he is in that he never steals the limelight. This vid shows how humble and respectful he is to other musicians. Ari is a bit of a whizz too.
Tommy is such a great person who is so passionate about the guitar and promoting talented young players. That is what so many people love about Tommy Emmanuel. He is a class act!!
Love this SO MUCH! Wow. That is a lifetime confidence blast right there. So stoked for Ari, just found him but he so deserves this for that incredible ability he’s clearly put thousands of hours into developing.
wow, this puts such a big smile on my face. I wish had the courage of this young man to be able to take the moment, take the spotlight and perform such a beatiful piece of music. Truly wonderful!
Not only is Tommy Emmanuel an incredibly talented guitarist, but also one hell of a human being (I’m still unconvinced that he’s not actually an alien). There are not nearly enough of his kind of people in this world. When you die, you get to keep only the Love and Respect you have earned while here. They are the wealth in the next existence. Tommy will leave here someday a very wealthy man. Well done Tommy.👏👏👏👏
That was absolutely superb and what a gesture from Tommy he literally made this talented young man's year. Fantastic to see and hear. Well done Ari Ettinger. 🙌👏
Exceptional encouragement from the master player to this young man who is a prodigy for sure. Also love, that we get the privilege to hear one last time, one of the great compositions of the late great Buster B Jones.
He's really good, and hopefully he pursues it, but a prodigy? Don't wanna throw a wet blanket on the performance, but that's a bit of a stretch.... And i suspect he's in the Chabad community. If so, and he chooses to live the lifestyle into adulthood, he'll pretty much be confined to playing within the community, under Orthodox rules. The one relatively successful mainstream exception i can think of, and i think he was more on the "Conservative" or "Modern Orthodox" side, is Peter Himmelman.... It also helps that he's the son-in-law of Bob Dylan....
Tommy Emmanuel is one tremendous class act! What a beautiful person he has demonstrated himself to be consistantly over his career by doing this for deserved musicians. Bravo!
That's AWESOME! I met Tommy Emmanuel at a meet-and-greet once in NJ a couple years ago and he was so nice! He signed my guitar and we took some pics together. I'm getting more & more into fingerstyle guitar within the past few years and Tommy is literally the very BEST guitarist I've EVER heard in my life! Hope to see him live again soon as I was floored seeing him perform! He's such a class act and a PHENOMENAL musician too! :)
Tommy Emmanuel has so much class as a human being ... Here for example, inviting, presenting, setting up the sound, then simply going out of view ... And this young man is talented, btw. Thanks for sharing :)
First time ever got front row tics with the meet & greet for Tommy's show earlier this year in L.A.- This man is seemingly always "in the moment", taking time with each person he greets to fully engage, returning their support with supreme respect for his audience. As I asked about the technique he used for his "harp harmonics" , he quickly borrowed a guitar he had just signed for another fan and demonstrated up-close-and-personal right in front of me in a 3 minute tutorial with EQ setting reminders and a final " Do you think you've got it?" It is completely unsurprising he would ask this young man to come up and perform - Tommy Emmanuel is not only the finest acoustic guitar player on earth, he is one of the finest people showering love down on this planet through his unparalleled musical gifts.
OH wow!!!!!!!!!!!! So good to see a young player with all the class and skill of Tommy have that opportunity and moment. If we don't see this young person kicking into the world we will have missed out big time. I would have been so nervous, he looks cool as cucumber.
Thanks for the video Kosher...Back in the 70's I would go to my local pub in Queensland, Australia and watch Tommy and his brother Phil (RIP) 'The Emmanuel Brothers' play every Sunday afternoon...Tommy started His musical journey as a drummer.
Tommy Emmanuel introduces the young guy, sets up his sound and DESAPEARS so he doesn’t take attention or focus from the public towards who is playing…class act. Respect
Tommy doesn’t have to do this. He does it because of his love of people and music. A true hero, consummate professional and fantastic person. God bless you Tommy.
To be good is one thing. To be able to perform under the pressure like that is another. What an opportunity and he knocked it out of the park. Salute 💪🏽
Tommy never had an easy ride , but he knows talent when he hears it what a gracious kind human being ,and all the best to Ari a really fine gifted player.
That was amazing!!!! Great skills from Ari. Great humility, class and kindness from Tommy.. It must have been an amazing feeling to be asked by Tommy to come up to the stage and play!
Watch more ari's amazing talent th-cam.com/video/mHU5zbrv94k/w-d-xo.html
Tommy is all class. no ego, just a real musician and one of the best. respect.
No ego, that's what I love about Tommy. And he always seems to be genuinely happy and encouraging for all the upcoming guitar players.
The best don't have to say it themselves. Others will say it for them

Excellent young player....and he didn't even look nervous! Well done. And Tommy is a superstar for inviting him up.
Chech this out th-cam.com/video/mHU5zbrv94k/w-d-xo.html
When you are confident as a player.usually you won't get nervous on stage oraround famous people
Tommy didn't invite him for sure....he was sent there by some local rabi in need
I would have shit my pants and threw up
@@peterobara7023 even so...try to sing like him and just after that u can speak.
I was there that night. Ari was amazing. What a class move by Tommy, who was astoundingly good all night long.
Where and when was it? KC didn't bother to write a description, unfortunately.
Good question
Tommy's ALWAYS that good. For Ari, this should rocket launch his career.
Keep up the good work!
There will never be another Tommy Emmanuel, a very very gifted man, and willing to share his time and gifts with others.
Ari will now know the value and power of the support shown by Tommy and pass it on to others. So beautiful.
Musics a wonderful thing
The great thing about Tommy is that he supports and encourages guitar players.
Tommy not only is an elite guitarist, but elite with class, much respect.
Elite? Arguably the best all rounder .
Not only is Ari not nervous going up there; he is totally savoring the moment and enjoying it! Kudos to him for all his time and energy practicing and having it culminate into this lovely experience. Tommy is such a class act, and I love that he’s always encouraging the next generation.
TE is so gracious. What other touring artist would literally give his stage to another young performer? All class!
What an absolute legend tommy is, so good of him to get that young guy up, he's a great player and what an endorsement having tommy saying he was blown away and inviting him on stage, what a class act
I love how Tommy not only invited him up, but he walked off and gave Ari the entire stage. I imagine that we will be buying tickets to an Ari concert soon!
Ojalá.Toca muy bien.

Yes, that look on his face was great!
Tommy is a ambassador of acoustic guitar. He is one of - if not even the - best in playing acoustic guitar and composing. He promotes others without being selfish himself. Making others great is really great. And all will win!
To get recognition from Tommy Emmanuel is an honor! Ari is a great guitarist in his own right!
That's every young guitarist's dream come true - congratulations and very well deserved!
One of the greatest videos on the internet. TE is such an amazing guy and Ari had the experience of a lifetime. Awesome stuff.
Slight exaggeration, but never mind.

That’s fantastic playing and a great gesture by a beloved guitar hero, Tommy Emanuel!
Wow! What graciousness on Tommy's part. That gesture brought me to tears. 😭
Tommy gave him two thumbs up. What an inspiration for the young guitarist. Ari's life is forever changed. Look out world here comes Ari.
Tommy Emmanuel, a CGP with class and humility. Well done, kid.
That's Tommie's style. A person of dignity, magnificent talent, extraordinary knowledge without a conceited bone in his body, much respect.
I can tell how much better Ari sounds with Tommy's set up, that was very nice of Tommy to give Ari some excellent exposure. Great job young man.

Showing true greatness by letting others shine. Tommy's a true legend.
You know hes got a huge future ahead because he never stop moving his leg to the rhythm. Well done Ari!!!
Wonderful on every level. Tommy is a mensch and Ari is a talented young man!

@CorneiliusLibowitz You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. And besides, this kid is certainly not Chabad.
Wow, that kid had total composure and played like a boss!! Hats off to Tommy for allowing these up-and-comers to play on his stage.
Great! Tommy proves yet again that he is one of the great ambassadors of guitarists.
Brilliant! Well done Ari. Thanks for posting this. And what a gentleman Tommy Emmanuel is.

Tommy has developed into an amazing act, person a propagator of peace and music and also a spawning ground of musical artists
@@waterdrop8883 Not really
I've found him more encouraging than any other artist or band, whatever one does in or with music.
Fantastic playing by Ari...and Tommy is such a good natured mensch!
That is beyond cool, it’s a life changing event for that young man. To play onstage by invitation of one of the greatest ever, wow!
Great musical talent. Good for Tommy inviting him up on stage, a memory that kid will hold forever. Tommy is all class, that's why he is the best.
Tommy is such a great person who is so passionate about the guitar and promoting talented young players. That is what so many people love about Tommy Emmanuel. He is a class act!!
