So happy to find this again....my old pc got a virus and died and I forgot this guitarists name...just found him again.....luv to close my eyes and just listen....what a gifted musician....Bravo Jerome.
Thanks Giorginho!!! This is the set piece "Appalachian Summer" that was written for this competition. The competing guitarists received the unpublished score about eight weeks before the competition. They had no reference for interpretation other than the printed score. Jerome chose to open with the piece, playing from memory. Memorization was not a requirement. His performance is fantastic, very moving. Matthew Dunne is commended for writing such a great piece of Music.
Thank's for your advice, and it may be useful another time. As for this piece... well, I've got it now and all memorised, though some of it I've still got work up to speed (or somewhere near it!)
Thank's for your reply. It's just the fast sections (2&5). I've figured out the 2nd section now with a combination of his fingering and my own. The 5th I think is going to be the stinker; he's got a fantastic RH - playing those chords with the thumb and coming back so accurately with the fingers!
Well, if you want to get into the details, I would have to say that he has the accuracy that allows him the ability to play it at tempo. That is, the tempo that was written for the song.
Yes, but Marcin would have to agree, before we would be able to post anything. Another incredible player, Wow! We will see. It is most interesting to compare. It was so close, but I understand why Jerome won.
hey danechka, i recently just ordered a rene wilhelmy and his current price (at least before 2008) is $8500. It may or may not go up after the new year. jerome plays one with brazilian rosewood back and sides so that would up the price a little bit on the guitar, although im not sure how much. your best bet would be to email wilhelmy and ask if you are indeed interested. cheers!
oh my fucking god !! what a sound !!! what kind of guitar is this one ?? i dont think is any rodriguez or something like that...anybody can tell me what exactly this guitar is and the model ??..thank you very much
I have a good idea, there is a 2 year waiting list for a new instrument. The seven string is a real steal at its listed price. Please contact us privately to continue this discussion.
@alankulka That's Great!!!!!!! I also want to order a Wilhelmy guitar in a few years. You probably already have yours, so how is it? Any comments? I would really like to know if he has Indien rosewood, on his site he on shows Brazilian and Honduran. Those guitars are hauntingly beautiful.
2005) René Wilhelmy Concert Guitar. René is a wonderful Canadian luthier. Google his website. The sound is as much about Jerome as it is any guitar. Annie Labrie of Similia has an incredible 7 string by Wilhelmy (1997) listed on our commercial site: SoloGuitarist(dot)Net
Boepyne: It seems to me that the majority of the song is not very fast and the fast parts are not scorchingly quick either. If you have the music and you can determine what (fret) position he's playing in, that's all you need to figure out the left hand fingering. What struck me more is the right hand technique. That's gonna take some serious practice.
I have this music. It's almost totally unfingered. Does anyone know a way I may be able to play this video back at a slower speed so I can watch his fingering more effectively?... OK, cheating I know, but for us lesser mortals.
Is there anyway to get his whole set on a dvd? Also I would like to know if the Marcin Dylla set could be put on there as well. Jerome is a phenomenal player, but I prefer Marcin. He came to Madonna University back in April and I fell in love with Marcin's playing.
Bravo, Monsieur DUCHARME. Pour la sensibilité, la précision, la densité. Bravo pour tout, et merci !

This is a masterpiece for the guitar played by a true master of the instrument. This is pretty magical.
totally agreed! not enough people acknowledge the incredible composition, they only want to talk about the performer
Definitely one of the best guitarists I've heard this year. He has speed but doesn't kill it by being mechanical. Great tone as well.
This is great, really!
really a great interpretation.
thanks sologuitaristnet

Once again, thanks for sharing your goldmine of guitar videos! Boy I wish Maestro Cobo's nail video had close-ups!:)
Amazing

Wonderful. So many textures pre
Dwarf Fortress... thats all I can think about when hearing this piece

Do you happen to have Marcin Dylla's performance?Or any other GFA finals for that matter?!?!:):)
The 4 dislike are jealous.... :-P
hello sologuitaristnet thanks for your response just one more question...do you know how much this guitar cost ?..thank you very much !

what guitar is he playing? friedrich??
No. Marín.
No. René Wilhelmy
... or order the wonderful 7 string of his, that we have for only $5,500.
he has speed, not just tempo.
say that again to yourself and see how ridiculous it sounds
A 7 string classical guitar? I would never find strings for that...
Is there anyway to get his whole set on a dvd? Also I would like to know if the Marcin Dylla set could be put on there as well. Jerome is a phenomenal player, but I prefer Marcin. He came to Madonna University back in April and I fell in love with Marcin's playing.
I just listened to Marcin Dylla's version and it sounded bad compared to Ducharme's interpretation.
