This isn't a thumbs up performance, it's a standing ovation performance. The first piece she played it's almost absurd. What a privilege to listen to this!
This is Great you can feel it in your Soul. She's a Gift From GOD I have a guitar acoustic Electric, Spanish antique And Pink Stratocaster. She's my Teacher Now 💯💯💯💜⏳

@@christieleneejimenez6793 The first time i saw an artist making music this beautiful with finger-tapping style, was Stanley Jordan playing live at Jazz Alley in Seattle, WA. I have been in love with the style ever since.
Opening on harmonics and tremolo…..I immediately got chills. I am so glad I stayed for this whole performance. No…actually this made my entire day. What a beautiful incredible piece, I cannot even fathom having this talent.
I can’t imagine why you would give this a thumbs down! Maybe the music isn’t your cup of tea but her playing and technique are great. Why bother to crap on a hard working artist just don’t comment if you didn’t care for the music.
One she's a woman, two it's a acoustic guitar, not a electric guitar. That's the standard of guitar playing according to these teen boys these days. Like Jack White I guess.
@@kenturley1735 no, not one reason. There may be other reasons one of them being the lack of musicality to it (the first piece). I didn't downvote this, just trying to say that not everything boils down to jealousy. Back in the day even Rachmaninoff was criticised for much greater pieces, so why everyone became so vulnerable these days.
As a musician myself I have to say music is an extension of our soul. You have a beautiful soul. Thank you for sharing that with us. I could listen to your soul for hours. I can see in your video that you are very resolute when it concerns your music. Your body language and expressions tell it all. You are passionate. This is what music is all about. You are beautiful.
Because of people like Jon Gomm and Antoine Dufour...this girl is very good, but there are people out there who quite honestly blow her away. The "fingerstyle guitar champion " title might be what some are reacting to because she wouldn't even make the top 5 if you brought the best out there to compete. Check out Jon Gomm. The song "Passionflower" ....its what got me into this amazing style of acoustic guitar!! Cheers
Awesome she is so full of energy and she plays from her soul. Saw her tonight at The Sophia in Sacramento,CA and the entire audience gave her a standing ovation. You really must see her in person. Is a performance you won’t forget.
I teared up the 1st time I watched this... thought I was going keep it together..... but I didn't hold it together 2nd time either... I have been robbed all my life, then I found this music touching my soul on all levels. I'm 41, never thought that would be possible 😁Thanks again for making my mind and heart live.... I truly appreciate your art
I've always told you that you would be a Star! I'm really happy that everyone can now see you for the Artist that you’ve always been! Hope that life continues to bring you all the JOY that you truly deserve... 🤩
Wow. Your fingering style is phenomenal. But, your music is inspiring. On its own. Your vehicle is unique, but your message, the music that comes from you, is beautiful. Artistic. Emotional. Special. Those are the only words I can come up with. I've been playing guitar and singing professionally for over 40 years. You just kicked my butt. And I'm better for having experienced you. Bravo.
Having labored 10 years trying to master finger style I feel like I can appreciate the technical challenges better than most. But really, it's all about the sound and feel, and she's got that in spades. Inspiring.
Her explanation of how she develops her fingering, works with unusual rhythms and tunings is so valuable, so generously shared. Thanks for posting this.
Her music is transcendental... it literally moves you. While laying in bed and listening to this I couldn't help but smile and my feet just kept moving. No wonder she won a championship with that song. AMAZING!!!! Wish I could play like that.
Omg...I've never seen anyone play this type of finger style tapping acoustic guitar any better than Christie Lenee! She actually makes love to the guitar as she plays!! She's most certainly such an amazing talented artist! I could totally listen and watch her beautiful pieces and incredible talented techniques all day!
I have played the guitar for over 36 years and can see why they call you a Champion because you how to make your guitar sing the most beautiful music I have ever heard. 🎶🎸
After being a professional guitar player for over 40 years and having listened to thousands of guitar players over the many years of my life I now have a new favorite guitar player. Absolutely amazing playing skill and compositions.
Babba, I bought a nice guitar that I had no idea how to play......It's the artists like this guitarist that inspire and educate me.......These creative minds are so incredibly valuable to we the ordinary.........
@@brkele Thank you for the suggestion. Stephan Rak, in the linked performance I am including, says, "So simple." Then he shows us..... th-cam.com/video/ofg6AwjSUJU/w-d-xo.html
I love the soundscape she creates. I've never heard anything quite like this before... She uses all the possibilities of the guitar and adds a little of herself. Nice. That bruise on her arm is worrying though. Classic.
Christie, i thought i had heard some of the best finger style Guitarist of all times!! Well clearly i hadn't heard all the best your example here is mesmerizing to say the least. Thank you Christie for sharing this extraordinary talent here on TH-cam to delight your fans and new listeners like myself. Thanks.
The skill is amazing, but the dynamics, voicing, movements and emotion makes this awe-inspiring music. To have such skilled technique coupled with such musicality is incredibly inspirational. Keep bearing your soul in the song!
There's a whole lot of genuine talent and ability out there. I could type a list a mile long. You just have to look for it. I don't mean that to take away from her playing, which is obviously quite good. Reminds me of Willie Porter a little.
wow! Amazing! And she's having so much fun playing. To be able to put so much of oneself into the music and become one with the instrument, now that's truly the highest goal of any musician, and she does it so effortlessly. 50 years of playing and I've never come close to how relaxed and effortlessly she expresses herself.
Absolutely breath taking and to see the joy of music in her eyes speaks volumes about the love of sound and creating that level of deep emotion. Thank you for reaching for the stars 🎸

An extraordinary excellent artist.. producing music in relation to a painting? Wow! May your talent be known to more people and share this amazing artist's love for her craft. Go, Christie!
Ms. Lenée, you put a great deal of emotion into your playing. I totally get that. Playing notes is one thing, but if you really put all of your emotions into your playing, that's what makes the music beautiful. Nicely done Ms. Lenée.
I really like because she does not play to make a demonstration as very often "new guitarists" do. They just want to proove that they are technically good but they forget music. She does not fall into this trap. Congratulation.
In a venue called The Parish, in New Orleans, was an artist named Andy McKee. He could play guitar and harp guitar. I bought every CD he sold. Also when he returned, I made the trip to hear this young man. Best show in the state ! ! Also caused me to buy a nice guitar and start playing . That's music for my Soul !
Very lovely😊❤💃I wish my Grandfather were still with us. This was his favorite part of teaching in his studio! He would have loved hearing you play and would want to play alongside and make music together. Thank you for sharing your beautiful talent in music! It's a love from the heart❤😊
ohhh wow! AMAZING ! Now here is the perfect picture of being ONE with your insturment,, pure joy and depth of emotinal connection ,, just,,,, WOW ! OMG she is amazing !
I love that smile while you play, it shows your love for that beautiful music. You’re very special and watching this made me feel like I want to give you a great big hug.
I love your piece. A balance of percussion, finger style, harmonics, you have complete mastery. I’m thinking you were a child prodigy. You do have fun, that is obvious. Thanks for the tips but for us beginners plus it is a language we do not understand yet. But something to discover. The story of love...hmmm yes. Congrats for 2017.
Some people not only find their call in life... some recieve a God given anointing, whether they know it or not. It's a truly beautiful thing to behold.
you know still remember when I would dream of flying like superman or lifting up a building like the hulk... but now I want to feel the same passionate way she plays to the people all around. kindness
Christie don't worry about the downvotes. I've been doing some tracking and there are always 3-5% of people who give a downvote, not matter what the subject or how wonderful the performance. This is a commentary on the downvoters, not that which is downvoted. Your performance is wonderful, and fascinating! As for them, well they are just going around downvoting, not performing.
If you were listening to this on the radio you would swear that you were listening to two guitarist not one. Amazing playing, how 140 people disliked this is unbelievable.
Larry Boyce people have the right to like or not any style of music. There is no rule for good taste. I truly admire her skills, but find it very repetitive and would not listen to this often. Again, I’m totally unable to do what she does, but her musical style is not what I prefer.
She has amazing technique, but music isn't about technique ... its about music ... and the tunes are pleasant enough, but a little boring if not marvelling at the dexterity on show.
This woman IS absolute brilliance. I could listen to her play or speak until the earth stopped spinning.
This isn't a thumbs up performance, it's a standing ovation performance. The first piece she played it's almost absurd. What a privilege to listen to this!
This is Great you can feel it in your Soul.
She's a Gift From GOD
I have a guitar acoustic
Electric, Spanish antique
And Pink Stratocaster.
She's my Teacher Now 💯💯💯💜⏳
I have no idea how I ended up here, but boy oh boy am I glad I did. Loved every minute of her talent.

Opening on harmonics and tremolo…..I immediately got chills. I am so glad I stayed for this whole performance. No…actually this made my entire day. What a beautiful incredible piece, I cannot even fathom having this talent.
Marvellous.... the music is IN her....the guitar lets it out. That’s what I can see in this performance. Nothing but admiration! 👏👏👏
What a beautiful approach to our beloved guitar. She's a wonderful artist.
I can’t imagine why you would give this a thumbs down! Maybe the music isn’t your cup of tea but her playing and technique are great. Why bother to crap on a hard working artist just don’t comment if you didn’t care for the music.
one reason: jealousy
Awesome

I'm in Love ✝️
Hey bro Tom! Just leave them with Their thumbs down into the hell! There's everything became monotonous without distinction. So, chill dude! 😋

There have been millions of exceptional musicians who were/are pieces of shit, from mozart to malmsteen.
Truth ❤
I can't even comprehend how much practice went into being this amazing! How on earth could 1,000 people dislike this???
Month max.
Coz they don't feel music like the rest of us

Shes just ripping off Justin King. Look up Knock on Wood, Justin King, hes been around since 90s.

Thank you Christie Lenee. It was amazing. Love and Blessings to You.
Christie you are amazing! That is so relaxing to listen to you play. Thank you!
Grew up on Fahey, Kottke and Hedges. Christie, you are on a fret board all your own, a cloud all your own. Glorious!
Hear, Hear!
Same here! I even learned several of Kottke's pieces but.....ain't no way I could begin to play THIS! Just unbelievably beautiful and creative!
I'm a retired musician and you just brought tears to my eyes thank you you play beautifully
I hope it caused you to come out of retirement!
The entire video needs to be listened to. There is some power and range is those fingertips. Bravo!
I know and love the feeling of being in the zone, and seeing her a very talented woman playing in the zone makes my heart flutter. I love it so much.
The sound of an army of angels celebrating. You've made this world beautiful again. Thank you!
Beautiful!! The playing is beautiful too, love how you incorporate the harmonics. You are absolutely amazing. God bless you...

Baring her soul, not bearing. Of course, it has no bearing on her abilities.

@@stephenjohnston7545 You're a good sport; it's a common mistake. Ignorant? No way! Not if you're listening to this music!

How nice in this world of X factor and the like, to hear someone with genuine talent and ability.

Wow , absolutely amazing and nothing else needs to be said, thank you for posting this video 😎
I really enjoyed watching her explain her music. She seems very cool and amiable, like she would be fun to just hang out with. Thanks Christie!
i absolutely loved it even though im hearing impaired , a set of head phones helped, i cant believe 641 people had thumbs down, this is pure skill
I love the way she sometimes seems surprised and delighted at what sounds come out.
Yes, her love for music must be loved.

The 1st piece totally gave me John Butler "Ocean" vibe. Digging both. Well done !!!

I love that she makes it a point to mention that making things FUN is what will help you work with something difficult.
This just made me smile and brightened my day. Thank you for posting.
