Ive had an accident last year, which resulted in my left hand broken several times, losing my pinky and having almost no feeling in my ring finger. I didnt have the guts to even pick up my guitar since then. Might try some of this. Thank you.
I'm so sorry, I hope you get all the best in your life! Do what you like and whatever's in your power, you have my respect. Good luck in everything in your life!
broo feel bad for you, I hope you find your way out to play the guitar, cheers and hope you the best :)
Life can be a bitch sometimes. I've learned the hard way that what is important is not the fall, but how you get up after.
Keep going bro ! All the best !
Keep on going! If Django can do it you can!
Best guitar channel on TH-cam.
facts
The TH-cam music community is so good overall

Lucas is epic
Naw it's beadly hall
Django was on another level of determination.
Giving up was not an option for him

As a disabled guitar player myself, I'm a huge fan of Tony Iommi and Django Reinhardt. I accidentally popped myself in the hand with a .22 pistol, totally destroying my pinky and leaving a lot of scar tissue in my ring finger. Much physical therapy and surgery later, I'm able to use those two fingers but most of my dexterity is in my pointer and middle finger so I play with a heavily modified fretting technique based on Django. I also use a prosthetic fingertip on my pinky based on the ones Iommi makes for himself, because my finger lost a lot of length.
This was the best video I've watched from the time I've been following you!
Absolutely agree!👍🏻
Definitely.
Couldn't agree more
Yes. Very wholesome and meaningful content! ❤️
I completely agree. This was brilliant
Dude didn't just learn Django's music. He sat in his mind.
Ecoute Angelo Debarre, un magicien du Jazz manouche ! Beaucoup de composition maintenant devenue culte (swing gitan, manége ...) Merci en tout cas de partagé le Jazz Manouche, c'étais super, bravo pour ton travail, super comme d'habitude ! Love
My favorite guitarist is Lucas Brar, because Brar means testicles in Korean.
No in korean that would be "bural" 부랄
@@CaptainArdalas Those sound pretty much the same in a Korean accent.
;;;
That's just nuts
You like hamburgers? I like meatballs...
Beautiful work!
Not long ago, I lost my left ring finger in a work related injury, and my left index finger cannot go flat - permanently curved. Relearning guitar has been a fight. There are many limitations that remain, but like Django, I will not give up!
09:14 - 10:31 this is GOLD...!!!
Being able to create a memorable melody that a listener can hum is one of the most crucial elements to any successful composition. Add that human touch, such as feel, phrasing, and tone dynamics and you're well on your way to creating something that will last the test of time. It's a skill that's, unfortunately, rare to find these days.
Took the words right out of my mouth
That "tchau tchau" in the end of the video, really have warmed the brazilian's hearts all around the world
A palavra "tchau" também existe no dicionário americano, não é uma palavra brasileira
I guess it was the Italian "ciao ciao" ("bye bye" in English)
Videos like this are just youtube TREASURE! Keep up the excellent work!
Thank you for that Lucas, you summed up this genre well. I founded and ran the international Gypsy Guitar festival here in the UK for 18 years and have only played this style for most of my life (i'm no Bireli but i guess who is lol). The more exposure this style gets the richer the audience becomes so thanks again. Big fan of your channel BTW
I'm very touched to see Lucas seroius when he's talking about Django. Django created THE JAZZ MANOUCHE which is still played in France by Birelli Lagréne, Angelo Debarre and their friends and the Rosenberg Trio (nederlands) ...
Lucas you are such a fabulously well rounded musician. Beautiful beautiful player, extremely clear and passionate educator, fantastic and hilarious entertainer, and a great singer. Thanks for sharing your love for what you do and sharing your gifts - you truly are an inspiration!
I have a skeletal problem in my left hand which prevents me from controlling my middle and ring finger seperatly and my middle finger is shorter than normal. This caused me to play with only 2 fingers. Through a lot of practise I learnt how to use my middle and ring finger when I could and started playing chords at some point. When I heard about Django it made me so happy. Knowing that there was a successful person in a simular position cleared up a lot of doubt for me. People kept telling me to quit and I am so glad I never did. Thank you for the awesome video.
Loved this video my friend ❤ been a Django fan for a long time great to see more people appreciating his music and breaking down his style for us all
Love the info on Django as much as the great music. It is inspiring to see an artist have so much love and passion for his or her art. Learning from the past is a gateway to the future. Well done!
Great as always Lucas fabulous information!🙏🏻
So glad to see you making another video on Django Reinhardt, and hope you will do more in the future! I especially like the speed and sound you're getting from only using your fingers, instead of a pick. I would love to see you do a video de-mystifying Luiz Bonfa's playing as well.
Keep up the good work man. Quality content!
Cheers from Norway.
Amazing video Lucas! Thanks for sharing Django’s knowledge and music.
great video! very inspiring and it opens many new ways to improve musicality, technique and improvisation, I'll definitely try some of you r tips!
This video is genius. Thanks, can't wait to check out the rest of your channel!
love this style of videos bro, very awesome job
Thank you for a brilliant video. I have never heard such an insightful examination of Django's style.
I love Django! Among your many great videos, this is one of your best lessons and tributes. Thanks!!!
I can't like this lesson enough. Your approach to improv through singing has resonated with me. Definitely looking forward to picking up my guitar tonight. Thank you.
Great video Lucas, the story of Django and his legacy is indeed fascinating and addictive!
Chord wise... the real mind job is when he played full 6 note chords, major 6 shapes for example using his thumb to play bass notes and moved in and out of them with apparent ease, just mind blowing, fascinating and really inspiring.
Keep up the great work! :)
Thank you so much! This video is amazing. Keep up the good work my friend.
Great video.Django was an outstanding musician an a true survival example for all. You made me want to rescue that Django's compilation CD I bought long ago and, sadly, I must have listened only twice at the most. Thank U Lucas You really Know a lot 'bout Jazz Guitar.
Great job! I love the analysis of Django's technique. It makes me even more in awe of his playing.
I had the great chance to listen to Stephane Grapelli live, may be 40 years ago. He was already an old man, but the energy flowing through his violin was truly fantastic. He was a great part in this new kind of music that came with Django and him. He seemed so pleased to play and share music with the other musician and the public. Unforgettable moment.
Loving the type of videos so full of nuggets and great great music, keep them coming!
What a touching tribute to the great Django, and an eye-opening demonstration of his technique. I was mesmerized by your ability to replicate Djangos' 2-finger arpeggios and joyful spirit.
A master-class for music lovers
Kul att hitta denna kanalen! Grymt lirande. Keep up the good work 👍🏻
That video lead me from playing Technical Difficulties to Minor Swing. And I love it. Thanks. This is Conservatoire level of lecture on music.
Thank you Lucas, I had listened to Django before but I only appreciated and developed a taste for it after seeing your videos. You're good people.
Django was extraordinary. Many of his solos are almost beyond belief in their musicality and structure. Your video gives us a valuable insight into his playing.
Before TH-cam came along gypsy jazz was confined to a few players but now it seems there is an explosion of guitarists & violinists captivated by the legacy Django and Stephane Grappelli left us.
So good to have you on TH-cam!!! Grateful
Thank you Lucas for this very inspiring video. I didn't know this detail about django. I am always admired blind guitarists, and BB Jones was saying that we had to learn to live with our limitations. He also had some limitations on his hand. But Django's case is very inspiring and educational. Thanks for bringing this up. We love you.
Thanks for this lovely video Lucas . Everything about Django's life and music brings joy to my soul .
Love the way you love and respect the guitarists you introduce to us
Such a good video ! 🌹🌹🌹
An incredible video Lucas. Well done.
really enjoying some teaching from you Lucas - big admirer of your playing! thanks
Outstanding! Love your channel, always musical and informative
Very glad youre still doing this series :)
Great content Lucas, great content!
Discovered this guitarist a few months ago. Absolutely legendary player. Thanks for making the video on his technique and style :)
Beautiful playing Lucas! Bravo!
I like this new style of videos! Very nice 😃😃👏🏼
I have enjoyed many of your more facetious [but entertaining] postings . Great when you get serious. A sensitive homage to Django and as always - your own talent shines through. Thank you
This was a great video and content, bravo!
Great video always good Django was truly amazing and I believe you captured and presented to us a little clearer picture of the genius he was thanks again I have been sharing these videos with my friends and they like me or amazed how funny and still extremely talented you are. I’ve been listening and playing guitar for 55 years I’m creeping up on 70 and there’s so much more to learn thanks again.
🙌🏽 joy to hear you explain and see you play
Among the best videos ever, for guitar, fantastic!
Really enjoy your videos. Your a great player, and teacher. And very entertaining.
Loved the video! Your playing is very inspiring
Great content, Lucas.
loved this lucas!
Man! I usually don’t comment on TH-cam... but I’m really impressed with ur video improvement, I think this is ur best video untill now; I’m just struggling to figure out how to play jazz.
I’ve started in acoustic guitar in 2019 and now I’m able to play fingerstyle arrangements but I don’t know if sometime I’ll learn to play like u
First brar video I've seen straight up subscribe. inspirational.
Thanks for making and sharing this. Love Django.
Great video, thanks. I’ll certainly look for more about Django!
Detta var en riktigt bra video, fortsätt så! 👍
Thank you Lucas ! I just discovered your channel and it's great ! You are very talented and your videos are great, thanks for sharing that !
Fine work yet again Lucas.
After seeing this episode (and the one about Tarrega) I became your big fan;)
This mix of teaching and inspiring is great! Thank you!
Thank you Lucas for your great effort to close up such fascinating guitarist like Django! I have known just a few facts about him, but now I'm motivated to explore more. Brilliant video! Best till now!
Fantastic video! Thank you for sharing.
Django is always so inspirational ❤️ Great video and playing
This video is amazing wow! To only think this video scratched the surface only is insane!!
Excellent video Lucas :)
Fantastic teacher, fantastic guitarist!! Thanks man great stuff!!
Incredible work on this video, merci beaucoup :) From France
Thank you for using the word "Romani", instead of the other word, it means so much to us!
What is the other word?
@@aliefendi4653 rom
the other word is gypsy.
@@williamstanford7994 Most gypsy's I know call themselves gypsy's and they are proud!
In France, the cultural name is manouche. Django was called a manouche, and sometime a tzigane.
Excellent video Lucas, you explained things very well. I've been listening to Django since I first bought a second-hand copy of Djangology from a local shop probably 60 years ago. I will try playing with just two fingers to see where it leads me.
Wow.. Thank you so much Lucas for having respected the Gypsy Legend D'jango Reinhardt.. A good job.. 👏Appreciate the way you have categorized his talents and biography briefly with his rare clippings and selected pieces like Minor Blues* etc., quite a treat Lucas.. 👌Rarely people of this generation heard about him I guess.. Good that you have uploaded.. 👏Thank you again.. 🙏
Warm cheers.. 😘
God bless🙏
Thank you for introducing such a legend, which I would have never discovered myself. Just a great pleasure to have u explaining things.
I'd love a series like this from you. Either just about Django or just general music history
Someone: ''What instrument can i play if i only have 2 fingers?''
*Me:*
Oh yeah; that one where I need all five...
Bass guitar
Very well made tutorial!
A soulful respect to someone who really deserves it!!and now many new people can know about him thankyou lucas
Great teacher. Thank you for sharing.
What a gem! Each of you. Thanks for the introduction.
Классное видео, Лукас. Это невероятно, полезно очень!
That was really fascinating Lucas, thank you!
Very inspiring! Thanks!
love your channel. your tone is amazing. wish you could talk in depth about right hand technique, practicing rest strokes, etc
Awesome video Lucas 🔥 🔥 👏 👏 it's amazing how he was able to reinvent himself after that horrible tragedy. Great theme, great explanation. Keep it up dude! 🙌🙌🙌
love this explanation!!! big Django fan and a lifetime student.
Thanks for sharing gypsy jazz on your channel. It was funny and lovely listening your solos approach. Viva Django 😎
Dear Lucas 😊 I love your Chanel and your Style. You are inspiring !
I love Gipsy music and the way you propose is very interesting.
Thanks a lot 🙏
Carry on Guy 🔥
The first vinyl guitar LP I bought was "Djangology" back in the mid 60's. I was blown away and was convinced that Django must have had more fingers than I did. I was staggered to learn he had only two fully functioning fingers. I listened to it for ages trying and failing to understand how he did it. Finally, after almost 60 years your analysis has finally explained it. Thank you, Lucas.
Another wonderful video - thank you!
An amazing tribute, Lucas. The only thing missing in this wonderful video is a clear view of your right hand.
What a delight of a video!!!!
Oh man I love django- you are an incredible player yourself. Appreciate the lesson
Thanks for this Lucas, a great tribute to the wonderful Django.
this was a very enjoyable video. Thank you
Every video you make is beautiful... thank you.
