Beethoven: To play a wrong note is insignificant. To play without passion is unexcusable. And those who play with passion and without any wrong notes are totally awesome!
People who don't play guitar can't appreciate how hard this is. Besides having to practice for, well, until you get it right, your hands and arms get tired playing like this from sprinting for 6 minutes. This means the longer you play, the harder it gets. You will also lose your breath and have to breathe harder. All that said, well done.
Yes its very hard but its also a bit easier than you think, since its legto you dint have to sync left and right hand, the most difficult thing is the speed and palm muting
+Simón Mejía You know, I chuckled at this at first, but then I realized this is absolutely true. While played in a different key, in a different era, on different instruments, the "riffs" and the tempo and myriad things about some of the old, timeless classical music masterpieces are absolutely metal as shit. You're so right. Mind blown, dude.

Why would anyone downvote this? Even if one doesn't like metal, look at the dedication such execution requires. This man surely trained hours to master this song and played it masterfully. Even if one doesn't enjoy metal, one can't deny this is a beautiful homage to Beethoven.
If you’re a musician though, you’ve gotta be ready to accept criticism. There’s always somebody that thinks they can do it better. Granted I wouldn’t notice if he missed a single note here without constant reference back, but I have had a few teachers who wouldn’t miss any mistake and it made me improve as a player quite a bit
I am 63 years old and during my chemotherapy I listen to his verry good playing, especially the one; Best of Times really something special. For me personal it gave me the strength and hope!!

If Beethoven had an electric guitar, I'm sure he would have used it like this. He would have made such an impact. He would have been so noticed. He would have been suspended by his tutors. He would have been thrown out of every respectable venue in Vienna. In order to stay alive he would have gone underground. He would have staged the wildest concerts in the cellars of crumbling palaces, where his patron Archduke Rudolph would have attended in disguise - waving a burning lantern above his head. He would have held concerts beneath bridges that span frozen rivers, and in dark caves where none but the brave and the foolish would ever go. He would have gone on a celestial tour in a train of multi-coloured coaches, filled with the most rebellious of musicians. Hollow-cheeked young men with frazzled wigs and running stockings who would rock the crowds and not lay down their instruments before the sun consumed all the stars. The Pope would have excommunicated all of them. Kings and princes would have banished them from every realm. But still young blood would have followed them. Old maids with unfulfilled dreams, and watery-eyed old men who yearned to feel young once more. All would have followed his electric storms from one great city to the next one - always helping him stay one step ahead of the desperate fingers of mediocrity and convention. The electric guitar arrived too late to help Beethoven light up the world, but as it turned out, he didn't need it after all. He only had to touch the torch of inspiration to the waiting pool of humanity. It created a fire that made its own wind. And here we have it now, played the way that he would have. It burns warmer now than it did then, and not quite as hot as it will tomorrow. By its light we will see the future, and by its heat we will warm ourselves - and so escape the rising numbness which Beethoven loathed as much as we do now. Mediocrity cannot live as long as Beethoven is heard. No, Beethoven did not hear the music. He FELT it.
+Pianoman They have hearing aids available that could boost his hearing. Even surgery could be an option for him. And someone of Beethoven's skill level and popularity would have no problem obtaining funds for such an operation. We could make it happen. With Science!
(+brycers0619) I think that Beethoven in particular sounds a lot more like Rock music. I think that a big part is the classical influence in Blues, Rock, and Metal, and especially with Prog bands that tend to understand Classical Theory very well.
its interesting you say that, there are studies to do with people's personality and their taste in music, and the they found that there is a very strong corelation to people who love classical and rock. (like me) thats why these are my absolutely favourite music pieces, classical remixed in rock genre. check out vanessa may and bond (the musical group not the spy) for similar stuff just for example
Historically in context- guys like Grieg, Beethoven and Wagner WERE the Heavy Metal guys. They were darker and more foreboding than more approachable composers like Mozart or Vivaldi. They had intense and wicked compositions that could shock and intimidate the listener. For the time period- they would have been the edgiest thing out there. I think that is pretty cool, myself
It was the invention of the modern piano that let them do that. Mozart was playing on piano that was much more like a Harpsichord. It naturally lead to poppy brighter music because it couldn't carry deep, rich, and sustained tones. Beethoven was instrumental (pun intended) in popularizing the modern piano.
Vivaldi is not only "the 4 seasons".he composed such heavy things even for bassoon or even! Vivaldi discography is bigger than John Zorn (another metal guy by the way)....
Haha the first comment compliments eddie and beethoven at the same time and our insecure little friend "musician gamer 4000" comes to say "fuck van halen" because he thinks its rude to compare a legend classical god to a legend guitar god. xD

+Jillian Lambert Metal and Classical going well is actually a true statement, my time signatures commonly used in Classical are also commonly used in Metal. Also, Classical Music was considered very "heavy" in the times it were written.
+drain I very much enjoy hearing classical on an electric guitar. I also like hearing Metal played on piano. Do you remember Metallica's S&M album with the orchestra? It's one of my favorites and really opened my mind to the similarities and relationship between the two genres.

+Alcides MFJr. I don't know if he would have loved it. But I've been a Beethoven fan since I was 6 (or so) and I can only say: impressive. I won an argument whether Beethoven was boring or not with this video. Beethoven and metal works. Please, please somebody do the Apassionata. :)
Der Humanitäre Kanal For me, it is only a fine tribute to the Master! And I prefer the Hammerklavier and the Opus 111, so far superior to the beautiful Apassionata!
That is seriously funny, and true at the same time. It would take a very talented guitarist a long time to perfect this. One difficult riff of 5-6 bars can take hours alone.
I mean judging by the fact that music theory is obviously going to be based on classical and older genres of music you could say the same about any genre
Actually Beethoven is the predecessor of all Rock and Pop music today. His music back then was far beyond it's time. He lived in the wrong era. Listen to his other works and you will recognize pop and rock elements.
Your mind is easily boggled. Don't get me wrong, this is pretty good, but if your mind gets boggled from a grown man's guitar skills....I hope you never try to Imagine something truly mind boggling...like the scale of our Universe or the age of the Sun.
fuck you I'm not saying his playing is bad, in fact, rather the opposite, he's awesome. However....two things: One: Knowledge or experience are not necessitated for valid criticism. They're valued and useful, but not necessary. That said, whilst I can't play this well, I do know a few very basic things, and thus, have a rather decent grasp on the fact that this, probably, wasn't the easiest thing ever. Two: Again, I define mind-blowing in a much grander scale. Such guitar skills are, truly, a glory to behold....but not something that would metaphorically force my mind to metaphorically detonate.
It depends how much practice you put in those 40 years and how effective that practice was. Some people prob put more time in playing in 10 years or less than you did in 40, and they might have even done it more efficiently Thinking that doing something for a long time means you should be great is a huge misconception. The only reason that tends to be the case is because there's more opportunity for growth the more time you have, but it's not nearly the whole picture Just imagine if you "learn a language" for 60 years, one word per week. Are you ever gonna be effectively fluent like someone dedicating themselves to it will be in just a few years time? Hell no

Thanks Dr.! Beethoven rocks!!! He was a radical individualist determined to do music his way. He changed everything. Listen to as much music of his as you can. He is one of the individuals that makes being a human worthwhile.
This is by far the best version of this piece on the electric guitar. Has a great tone and a very good choice of strings. Owe so, he plays with his soul.
I've replayed this over 20 times now. I listen to it while i eat, study and even once while i slept. I tried doing what you did on the guitar but that's impossible.. I have no words to describe how much i love this.
I wonder what Mr. Ludwig van Beethoven would think of this.... What outragelous impressive guitar playing. I love it and i'm highly impressed ! Well done ! Love it ! I'm adding this for all the ignorant : Ludwig became deaf at age 31 !!
Just amazing. I've played guitar for over 40 yrs now and could. Play metal,jazz and even went to school for Classical guitar. I love classical. I could only wish I played as amazing as you. You have a subscriber for life with me.
I do believe... This is absolutely the result of incredible intense discipline, unbelievable determination and very, very hard work- for a very long time. You are absolutely magnificent, unbelievable and fantastic. Lol from Switzerland 🇨🇭
Omg! Your technique is amazing! No extra movements, everything looks soo smooth. I’ve seen some other versions of this piece on a guitar but this is the best one..
I think if Beethoven would live today, he would do it like this (maybee even more "harder" ;) - you should trie to do more modern adaptionen from Beethoven like this ;))
I Hope he does not take offense.. And recognizes the playful satire. with that said.. Funny comment :) and she forgot to wax the stache Oh awesome skills.. I could never do this in my lifetime
@@carbon4183 Only boomers and elitists think that. I like metal, classical, pop, rap, dubstep and pretty much every type of music. And many people who like metal most likely also like classical because in a way they are pretty similar.
I love playing Rudolf Serkin's First Movement of this piece and then Dr. Viossy's Third. What amazing interpreters of Beethoven's composition! The best!
I really want to know what Beethoven would have sounded like if he was a progressive metal artist. His music really feels at times like he was way ahead of his time and basically wrote that type of music. This video being a great example.
@BrianR I don't see how Tina can surpass any bit of Doctors' playing. The dynamics and precision, credibility wise. Don't drag Tina in your delusional narrowed mindset. She did all cover, as for Doctor. He is a musician.
I keep coming back to this, awesome piece and awesome performance. Today when I listened to it i suddenly got a strong feeling of wanting to show this to Beethoven and see his reaction :D
I’m proud of this guy
Ludwig van Beethoven did you create this channel just for that comment?
Lol
He went back from the dead made a youtube account and just to say "i am proud of this guy"
@Conflux how is it pathetic?
Really shows his appreciation that he went the extra mile to congratulate someone on a cover of one of his songs

I never thought I would be able to play this song. But after months of practicing over and over again...I realised I was right
😂
Keep trying, don't give up
🤣
😂
Don't stop, never give up, you are sure to be able to play like this and even better
Beethoven: To play a wrong note is insignificant. To play without passion is unexcusable.
And those who play with passion and without any wrong notes are totally awesome!
@Keith schaedel To be honest, I like his version a small bit more than hers. She excelled with the finale of Vivaldi's Summer, it's gorgeous!
Except when Kirk Hammett plays a wrong note, the world implodes.
I'm the 250th like!
His passion is not placed on the same tempo as yours, that's all.

Yea. You should check Rick Beato's video on Bach, it's great.
That's actually Vivaldi
unbelievable... Crazy performance
I can't even play the wrong notes that fast
Ricardo Bonilla same lol
Lmfaooo one of the best comments, true that bro practice is key but this level of playing is nuts
@@daslifts lol you're right brother practice makes the master but I'll still have to find what to do with my life after seeing that guy playing guitar
Haha... same here. 😂😂😂
This cracked me up to tears lol
If Beethoven was alive now he’d be one of the greatest metal guitarists
Yeah, did you know that while he was alive he played so passionately that many pianos broke? He’s definitely a metalhead
Sai Pranav he’d be big on neoclassical, power, and symphonic metal
Wow. Just -- wow.
ベートーヴェンの時代の人がこの音を聴いたら腰抜かすでしょうね！
クラシック曲とギターの音がマッチしていて驚きと、正確な月光の演奏が素晴らしいです。
A huevo de acuerdo con el chino !🤣
Beethoven died mad and in agony knowing that he would never hear his pieces on the right instrument.
Mind blowing arrangement and performance.
I can still hardly believe anyone can play like this.. it just boggles my mind
Your mind is easily boggled.
Don't get me wrong, this is pretty good, but if your mind gets boggled from a grown man's guitar skills....I hope you never try to Imagine something truly mind boggling...like the scale of our Universe or the age of the Sun.
*****
Nooooo...that is very incorrect. Knowledge doesn't get passed down. A baby has no idea of how large the cosmos consciously or subconsciously.
It's called "practice, practice, practice."
fuck you
I'm not saying his playing is bad, in fact, rather the opposite, he's awesome.
However....two things:
One: Knowledge or experience are not necessitated for valid criticism. They're valued and useful, but not necessary. That said, whilst I can't play this well, I do know a few very basic things, and thus, have a rather decent grasp on the fact that this, probably, wasn't the easiest thing ever.
Two: Again, I define mind-blowing in a much grander scale. Such guitar skills are, truly, a glory to behold....but not something that would metaphorically force my mind to metaphorically detonate.
Can we all just please quit bickering and just ENJOY THE SHOW? *wink*
This guy has played more notes in 4 minutes than I have in 40 years. Guess that's why I'm still a very basic beginner.
Skydiver1000 😂😂
Skydiver1000 not even an advanced beginner yet? Lol all good buddy. As long as you're enjoying it
Skydiver1000 You're not a beginner at this point (41 years!?), at this point youre on the level of "I just suck." also known as The Lil' Wayne Level.
Don't worries you are not alone
It depends how much practice you put in those 40 years and how effective that practice was. Some people prob put more time in playing in 10 years or less than you did in 40, and they might have even done it more efficiently
Thinking that doing something for a long time means you should be great is a huge misconception. The only reason that tends to be the case is because there's more opportunity for growth the more time you have, but it's not nearly the whole picture
Just imagine if you "learn a language" for 60 years, one word per week. Are you ever gonna be effectively fluent like someone dedicating themselves to it will be in just a few years time? Hell no
저는 어둠의 실력자가 되고 싶어서 라는 애니를 보다가 ...중간에 나온 음악을 검색했습니다... 베토벤의 월광 이었어요... 유튜브에서 월광을 검색하다가 이 영상을 보게 되었습니다...
제가 당신처럼 기타를 치려면 도대체 얼마나 연습을 해야 할까요? 잉위 맘스틴 이후로 존경하는 사람이 되었습니다 .... 당신!!!!
I honestly think Beethoven would appreciate this alot if he could see it.
you mean hear it
+Nathan Tang He can't hear it.
+Jarod Newman lol
+Jarod Newman that's what I meant
+Jarod Newman bruh😂
Boss: what are you listening to on your headphones?
Me: Beethoven
B: oh, a classical guy. Does it help you focus?
M: only when the double bass comes in
B:....
Noah Dominic Silvio that’s the joke
Noah Dominic Silvio he’s saying he listening to the metal version
HAHA! YESSss
Ellis Delk I don’t hear any double basses here lol
@@Fanchen double bass... Drums!!!
I've heard many versions of this and this has to be my favorite, both in playing and arrangements.
Do you play it in your van when you make bombs?
One of the coolest versions I've heard in a long time!!!
Check out Tina S' version
Avi Yulzari $$$$$$$$$$
Not to mention the guitarist's majestic hair
Thanks Dr.! Beethoven rocks!!! He was a radical individualist determined to do music his way. He changed everything. Listen to as much music of his as you can. He is one of the individuals that makes being a human worthwhile.
I wish this was the boss music when you fight against Drácula in Castlevania
That would be so freakin' awesome!
Holy shit I thought exactly the same
For what is a man's profit if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul.. - Dracula Castlevania SOTN
/M/ When people say "classical is boring" clearly they've not been paying attention.
Voracious Reader LOWER CASE, YOU HEATHEN!
100000% agree
His neck work is awesome
/M/
This version is one of the all time greatest musical jaw droppers for me.
Frustratingly amazing!
This is by far the best version of this piece on the electric guitar. Has a great tone and a very good choice of strings. Owe so, he plays with his soul.
I din't know. His student Tina S really cuts it up
I don`t know, but I think this guys is a legend alive
Beethoven was the metal composer of his time.
Vivladi : "Am i a joke to you"
Vivaldi bro
I just bought it, it's impressive that you can play 46 pages of tab+sheet music in only 6 minutes.
Hi ! I see your comment and i would like to ask you if the tabs has made for a 7 string guitar or 6 ? Thanks a lot !
@@jackfriz 6
1:10 love the moment
Hitting the overdrive after the run, gold.
The. Happiness. Look. His face
It's not that hard. The only part i can't do is from 0:13 - 6:13
I actually looked it up...
Lmao!!!
:'v
Anjrit🤣
6:09 is easy tho
I've replayed this over 20 times now. I listen to it while i eat, study and even once while i slept. I tried doing what you did on the guitar but that's impossible.. I have no words to describe how much i love this.
R u ok?
@@ElectricMahatama no 😇✌️
@@TalaR04 perfect 😼
It is scientifically proven that routinely listening to this leads to IQ gain.
I wonder what Mr. Ludwig van Beethoven would think of this....
What outragelous impressive guitar playing. I love it and i'm highly impressed !
Well done ! Love it !
I'm adding this for all the ignorant : Ludwig became deaf at age 31 !!
He would buy an electric guitar and starts playing rock music..
Ade Prisma Pranayuda hahaha yeah maybe, but to be honest I think he wouldn't :P
Ade Prisma Pranayuda wrong he would be playing metal
josh schaefer yeeah Metal rules!!! \m/
I think Ludwig would have liked it very much.
It sounds even more passionate. Beethoven is my most favorite musician of all time, but I approve this! It's phenomenal. 🤟
**WHEN YOU REACH THE FINAL BOSS OF THE INTERNET**
soulassassin0g dude best fucking comment I ever read
I feel like level 99 just hearing this lol
The final boss of internet is dhaler mendi
This comment was made 1 month ago but is 8 years old
if this is a final boss.... this would be the later stage... th-cam.com/video/A4tYGYCFgIQ/w-d-xo.html
I've been saying for a very long time the classical musicians were the 1st metal heads I think this video proves that.
Just amazing. I've played guitar for over 40 yrs now and could. Play metal,jazz and even went to school for Classical guitar. I love classical. I could only wish I played as amazing as you.
You have a subscriber for life with me.
I do believe... This is absolutely the result of incredible intense discipline, unbelievable determination and very, very hard work- for a very long time. You are absolutely magnificent, unbelievable and fantastic. Lol from Switzerland 🇨🇭
It is
The best electric guitar version ever.
It's not merely technically perfect. It just kicks ass.
Very far from perfect, but quite headbangeable
Before this video i was a fan, but now i'm a whole air conditioner! Love You Viossy!
A masterpiece for those of us that love classical & heavy metal. Thank you!
Truly a master musician !! I think Beethoven would be impressed!
Wow... lost for words.
Classic music is just metal with out distortion. 🍻👍
Omg! Your technique is amazing! No extra movements, everything looks soo smooth. I’ve seen some other versions of this piece on a guitar but this is the best one..
Beethoven truly is a genius
Perform this beside Beethoven's grave, and I am sure he would jump out of his grave to congratulate and high-five this dude.
@American Roads He sure will, but first dr viossy must put a hearing aid beside his skull.
I think if Beethoven would live today, he would do it like this (maybee even more "harder" ;) - you should trie to do more modern adaptionen from Beethoven like this ;))
EDO TENSEI 🙏 HAAA!!
American Roads lol then his Beethoven’s arm would fall off
Dragoon GT i feel ya.
This guy just used up all the notes, sorry everyone else, music is over.
hang-the-9
I LOVE IT!!!!
Just feel the agressiveness of the composition .....you will feel it in ur vain
This is like Tina s cover of this song. The only difference is that she was 17 when she played it .
@@olaoluwakolade9575 this was the original metal cover version. If any, Tina S was like this, not the other way around
Can confirm, tried to play my saxophone and it started playing the audio for an infomercial instead
Virtuoso !!!! Thank You💯💯💯
And that guitar tone so aggressive!!
I always suspected Beethoven was the first rock an roller....this validates it. Well done!
6 minutes of pure awesomeness
It doesn't get any better that this!
That is the best guitar performance that ever happened.
you haven't seen a lot then ;)
I have seen a lot and this is FOR SURE one of the best guitar performances in the world ever. He brings new life to a song written over 215 years ago.
sounds mpre like a perfect tune to play tetris to me... but if you like it,,,
Tina S and her version would like to have a word with you...
Sonic Death Cow Her version doesn't come close?
Wow she's really good!
I Hope he does not take offense.. And recognizes the playful satire. with that said.. Funny comment :) and she forgot to wax the stache
Oh awesome skills.. I could never do this in my lifetime
Nephel Tea the fact that rocky men's wear long hair makes your comment not really funny you know ...
Well you know that the player isn't a she as that isn't a kitchen.
This is sick! I’ve seen a lot of other covers of this song but this is one that gave me goosebumps!
Twelve years have passed and still no one has surpassed you.
Who would've thunk that Beethoven was the greatest heavy metal composer of all time. LOL. AWESOME!
A lot of really talented metal bands these days are classically influenced.
IAmBadatStarcraft "These days"? You mean.. like .. the past 30 years?
At 0:45 he's like "thank god those scales are done"
joe thompson except they repeat throughout the song haha
th-cam.com/video/Di4UNfrLBLs/w-d-xo.html
I mean, I already love Beethoven’s music to death, but this. This is beautiful. I wish I had the skill to play this
If you like this youre not a fan of classical. thats the general rule in most classical forums
GMRVSYash fuck those forums then lol
@@carbon4183 Only boomers and elitists think that. I like metal, classical, pop, rap, dubstep and pretty much every type of music. And many people who like metal most likely also like classical because in a way they are pretty similar.
I love playing Rudolf Serkin's First Movement of this piece and then Dr. Viossy's Third. What amazing interpreters of Beethoven's composition! The best!
This was recommended to me through form of a sticky note on a pole at Twickenham station. Not disappointed.
Awesome handywork! Also, i love how it sounds like an epic 8-bit boss-battle tune.
I really want to know what Beethoven would have sounded like if he was a progressive metal artist. His music really feels at times like he was way ahead of his time and basically wrote that type of music. This video being a great example.
Master piece of music. Perfection.
He is unreal. The tunes is out of this world. Hats off.
просто нет слов.....это величие техника парню большой репост что есть такие таланты....
This is the best metal interpretation of any and all classical compositions I have seen yet.
Godlike. I commend you for your hard work!
2020, coronavirus lockdown. still impressive
I want to drop a like... But it will upset the balance
2020 Unoriginal comments exist. Still lame.
Eargasmed for 6 minutes straight. This is un-GODLY good.

I think its the other way around
@@doomsday7308 unless you want an acoustic piano
It's funny i have a classical and an elec guitar but i really want a piano!
I always come back every year or so to this... this is an amazing rendition. Long live Viossy.
Viossy is the king for Moonlight Sonata 3rd mov. on electric guitar. No competitors
I disagree, Tina S does it better in every way.
@@BrianR. just listened to her version per your comment. Please log off youtube and never comment again. Thank you.
@@BrianR. Tina S just copying him.
@@randyarman5978 and doing it better than him.
@BrianR I don't see how Tina can surpass any bit of Doctors' playing. The dynamics and precision, credibility wise. Don't drag Tina in your delusional narrowed mindset. She did all cover, as for Doctor. He is a musician.
I keep coming back to this, awesome piece and awesome performance. Today when I listened to it i suddenly got a strong feeling of wanting to show this to Beethoven and see his reaction :D
