@@enealiviu4797 Great quality on his vid, and I quite like a number of his illustrations, but this video is about 80% accurate. He deleted one comment of mind about a GIANT mistake in it (the you don't need to - and in fact shouldn't - push the string all the way to the fretboard), and there are at least a few others. Dude is going to have trouble playing in 10 years, if he isn't already. You absolutely, positively, 100% do not want to keep the arm still while moving only fingers, even for counterpoint. The arm move should support every note, every time. Not only will it be easier, your speed will increase. If playing counterpoint, the movement will be small, but still quite important.
Thanks, 80% correct is not bad. Do you play classical guitar? Have you played Bach? If fingers move simultaneously in opposite directions, how can the arm move with them? The arm should move the hand to the average center of the range of a passage or to switch from oblique to parallel, or to switch positions but not to follow each note. All that is for another video. The amount of pressure towards the fretboard’s normal is monitored by the ears according to the quality of sound. The string pressure over the finger is so much more significant that whether we touch or not the fretboard is irrelevant to think about. I’ve played solo more than 4 hour long gigs, not one single muscle hurts. Are you flexing your MCP's? If so, you may be locking your finger's ability to stretch. Trust your finger’s potential and promote their independence!
Only it wouldn't be very useful. Like a solid 40 minute practice would be more useful. The sharp angle of 1st finger hitting the 1st string from the top is also just wrong.
This is of the quality I'd expect from some major network documentary channel like the old Discovery and TLC shows in the 90s. The clarity, thorougness, engagement, and applicability are all best in class.
I've been playing guitar for almost 30 years. I watched this video a few days ago, completely cleaned up my left hand mechanics, and have made more progress in the last few days than I have in decades. Thank you.
Same here. I've been playing for 20 years (half of that has been performing for a living) but never had an official lesson clarifying proper techniques. I had to figure it out intuitively. This video is helping me immensely. ❤
Far too simplistic. Look up tensegrity and biotensegrity. Also the normal force at the fretboard does absolutely nothing to pin the note to the fret - its the normal force at the fret that matters.
I’ve been playing guitar for over 16 years now and this video has blown my mind. The animations are amazing and the details are spot on. I was surprised you even went over the anatomy of the hand mentioning the muscles with their inserts and origins, reminding me of my human anatomy class 12 years ago haha. I wish I could like the video more than once 👏
Just think, it would have been the easy route to use a live model throughout, but this content creator has invested time, effort and money to create all these animations.
I am a newbie who used to struggle a lot with my left hand. I used to commonly get aches in my left hand due to improper technique. This video has helped me so much and saved from so much pain (literally). Thank you for the great work that you've done!
Wow, this is music to my ears. ❤️ I struggled too for years and these principles made all the difference for me. You motivate me so much. Stay tuned for more
I can't tell if this was just really well made, or if I'm just too obsessed with guitar related content, but this video had me entranced for the whole duration of it.
Dude. I'm 36 and been playing bass for a little while but just grabbed a guitar last week. This video came across my feed by accident and it was the best thing I've watched as a starter. Thank you.
this is without a doubt the best explanation and demonstration of left hand approach for classical guitar that ive ever seen. I know of at least 2 textbooks that are no where close to the value of this video for this discussion. amazingly well done, you have a gift for this type of content, sir!
I have not “sufficient” words to express my profound appreciation for this beautifully done INVALUABLE video! Now a subscriber - hungry for more!! A “self taught” amateur guitarist - I’ve been playing “at” guitar for many decades. I’ll be 75 years old next month and on my meager retirement budget I have not considered sending monetary support to any other YT videographers. BUT I am anxious to learn how may I send even a token amount of support for your very generous contribution to the world of guitarists?? I have learned so much here and will be sharing this video as well as watching it over and over for fuller comprehension. Thank you so much!💕
Thank you so much for your inspiring words my friend. Messages like yours have inspired and energized so much me to keep producing more videos and sharing what I have been so lucky to learn in the past decades. The next one is almost ready and should be up in August. All the best!! ❤️
I’ve been playing for 6 months and couldn’t understand why I was feeling pain and having a hard time stretching. Of the maybe dozen videos I’ve watched on posture and hand positioning, yours is the ONLY one that mentions the ring finger as the center point. Not only that, you demonstrated the mechanics as to why this position allows the efficient traversal of each digit to their respective fret. My mind was blown as I audibly yelled “holy shit that’s literally what i’ve been looking for” 😂
As many other commenters I cannot commend you enough for the quality of both content and presentation of this video, thank you. This should be where any decent guitar course starts, without understimating the capacity to understand of the student and the importance of good technique for their health and enjoyment of making music. Again, thank you.
This will be one of those old videos that is very valuable for all the generations to come. I kept comparing abt what my teacher taught me and what this video taught and found that this video is much more in-depth . And is somewhat hard to understand properly until applied. So waiting for what’s next in the series.
I’ve been playing for 20 years, and wish I’d had this video, when I was starting. Further, it was still educational and insightful for me, as a self taught musician. I will be watching several times, and using as a reference for some of my students.
This video is insanely comprehensive. Thank you for making it and putting it out there. I had a chuckle at some of the analogies because they were so well explained.
Amazing job! I'm impressed by the ammount of dedication of this video, and amazed by the parts in which de transparent guitar frets and fingers play the actual background music, that looks to be hard to edit and recreate... Thanks for the detailed explanation and video editing done here!
Even though I don't teach classical guitar, I'm going to make all of my guitar students watch this video. I particularly love the explanation and visuals you provided on fretting notes in the beginning of the video. Absolutely excellent way to explain it to new players.
Thank you very, very much for this explanation! There is so much to take in that I will have to watch it many times! I hope that many guitarists watch this video!
This is a remarkable video! The combination of information, anatomy, and animation is the most thorough explanation of the left hand imaginable!! Thank you...
This is fantastic David. Not only an incredibly useful set of clear explanations but also totally mesmerising! Thank you for taking what must have been a considerable time to put this together 👏
The amount of editing that came into this video was mindblowing - I know cause I tried to do something like that myself. It's crazy good and tbh I'm a little envious of it. Well done!
Wow! Classical guitar tutorial meets Grey’s Anatomy! Very cool. I’ve understood so much in this video than in many years of trying to understand the techniques on my own. Thanks so much
Wow...how this all makes sense to me now...to the basics. As a beginner guitar player, now I understand why music theory becomes so important if you really want to play music by ear..this is such a great tutorial..thank you
Daaamn! I was just looking for some tips and my bro here just give me a whole masterclass, kudos for you sir, I really love this masterpiece of video 👏
Wonderful guitar lesson on guitar playing anatomy function. This is the best upper extremity anatomy class that I have listened. And I am an Orthopaedic surgeon and guitarrista Thank you
Thank you so much for sharing that amount of work and thought for free. With initiatives like that, who knows what level of musicianship we might reach !
I've got to say for the first time after going around the internet about a million times on guitar lessons this has got to be the most expensive and detailed and informative listen I've been able to have thank you very much I'm definitely subscribing and letting my friends know about this site
Yes, agree 👍. Mind blowing indeed ! Gem among the Gems , I would say. As we know there are plethora of Guitar related You Tube videos but this one is out of the box. For me this video is made by the combination of an Orthopaedic Doctor, a Physiotherapist, a Sound Engineer, a professional Video Grapher, and a Graphic Designer ; and yes all of them are good Guitarist. ❤😍🎉🙏👍💐👑😊❤️. Love, Respect, Hugs and Greetings from Kathmandu, Nepal 🇳🇵 🙏 ❤️ 👍. Perhaps you don't know what an incredible tutorial is this! and how you have saved thousands of aspiring guitarists so that they could achieve near perfection since initial phase of guitar learning curve. Bow to you, Sir!
Wonderful explanation. I am newbie at playing guitar. Only 11 months. This film give me recipe to practise left hand right way from almost beggining. Im learning alone from youtube. Now i will be conscious with all my fingers positions more. Brilliant work 😊
The best video I have ever seen delves deeply into the concept, making it very easy to understand. I will definitely use this video with my students and friends. I look forward to seeing the video about the right hand. 😊
Every guitarist, no matter what genre's they play, needs to watch this. It will improve your playing faster than anything else. Thank you for this complete technique explanation, it's a great lesson.
My goodness. The 3d and 2d graphics must have taken forever to do if you're working alone. Even for a 5 person team this would be a huge undertaking. 41 minutes, wow. I'm a professional 3d animator, and even thinking about how much something like this would cost if ordered commercially... A perfect example of why passion projects like this are so important for humanity. This TH-cam at it's finest! Thank you.
A guitar video that actually understands kinesiology, woohoo! All other videos seem like they just googled everything before filming and end up getting so much wrong. You've done the guitar community well
There is a mistake at 3:13. the string should not touch the fretboard, if you do that the intonation is effected, as you are stretching it, (vibrato technique). The finger should be placed upon the fret itself, scalloping can help improve playability, tone and dexterity string bending with vibrato for instance. Again at 5:56 the thumb should hardly touch the neck and in some circumstances where sustain is indicated not at all. The neck should be pulled with the arm toward the body with your abdomen/chest as a fulcrum to your forearm upon the lower bout.
Thanks for you comments and sharing your knowledge. It's hard to cover every small detail in this long overview. I hardly mention the thumb. I prefer to emphasize the abduction of the fingers and horizontal stretching at the beginner stages. That alone can require more effort and attention than saving energy when pressing on the string.
He could create an animation serie for toddlers in the same time he spent on this specific video... Gorgeous work. The parachute example was the everest... I've realized that I'm doing everything just like you've explained without knowing it.
What a fantastic lesson and demonstration. I wonder how you recorded fingers through transparent fretboard. Stunning! Best left hand principles I’ve ever seen. (OK, right hand since I’m left handed. 😀)
Had all these ideas and images in my head. Took me some time to figure out how to materialize them and I'm so glad to see them coming through to all of you. More coming up very soon!
As someone who has experience both as a guitarist and creator of content similar to this one, I know how much time, planning, and effort it takes. You've done extraordinary job, and you haven't put it behind a paywall but you are sharing it with all the world. Thank you very very much!

Bro casually dropped the most comprehensive video on the left hand and thought we wouldn’t notice
EXACTLY!!!
I had to rewind several times because I was just allowing myself to be dazzled by the animations and detail.
goated fr fr
download this video before it gets taken down, this is basically what advanced classical guitar instructors are paid to teach
Broooo ☠️☠️☠️☠️
As a pre-medical student and a guitarist, it is very fun to see these two paths cross.
Everything is connected :)
That's a link to Anatomy of Guitar Playing book
The medical field is an art form that saves lives and so is music!
My gross anatomy was over 50 years ago and parts of this brought on a cold sweat.
Physio here and guitarist, I agree! It's always interesting and fun!
This Video should be a mandatory watch for all guitarists
Not just for guitarists but for violinists also. I had no idea that the 3rd finger is the ideal anchor finger for stretches.
@@enealiviu4797 learning more about the human body, if you know what to look at, can improve so many things in the field of music.

It is? Why because it has animations and a black background?

So kind of you to say so. Thank you for such an inspiring comment.
@@dadavidvidwe need the right hand version as well
I'd also love it if you moved into explaining specifics of other genres and electric guitar/bass stuff as well.
Indeed, this man is very hardworking❤
Your comment is kind to the creator and savage to old legacy research channels. Spot on both.
This is the best analysis and demonstration of the left hand technique I’ve seen.
So glad you think so, thank you 🙏
Yes absolutely. this is very thorough and void of myths. Thank you very much Mr Galvez ;)! And greetings from Frankonia Germany

Exactly my friend, very well said. More coming up very soon!
As an engineer, this explanation satisfies my brain so much... you're amazing!!
Far too simplistic. Look up tensegrity and biotensegrity. Also the normal force at the fretboard does absolutely nothing to pin the note to the fret - its the normal force at the fret that matters.
Today is my birthday and I consider this video as a gift of those that please you a lot :)
Awesome profile picture my man. Happy late bday
Literally started learning classical today after years as a “campfire” guitarist.
I feel like this is going to help break so many bad habits.
good luck on your journey, I believe the technical aspect is the biggest obstacle students face when they start.

That would be wonderful, thank you for the good wishes!
Came for the left hand, left with bachelor degree
😂 you made my day
Make my day as well
I feel you.
😂🤣💦💦💦 5 mins in im like what have I gotten myself into. Im about to ride it out my boy 🚗🚗🚗. I need my bachelor's too looool

Images communicate so well, so glad the ideas seem to be coming through. More coming up very soon!!
I am literally going to be using this to teach early high school students. Likely forever. Thank you :)
This video is a masterclass in presenting information
As a physician and guitar player this has been most illustrating and instructional, thank you very much!

The fact this dude not only rhought this was important information to teach people, but also to get it fully animated too. That deserves some props
So glad you liked it. I’m hoping that the animations help the ideas land more smoothly. More coming up very soon 😉
This video is beyond my expectations. Too much skills needed to prepare, it is like a miracle.
This is honestly very good. Nice to finally see an engineering/physics explanation of the classical guitar playing technique!

He could create an animation serie for toddlers in the same time he spent on this specific video... Gorgeous work. The parachute example was the everest... I've realized that I'm doing everything just like you've explained without knowing it.
Wow, thanks my friend, stay tuned, more coming up very soon 😊
This is what TH-cam was made for
The amount of effort on making this video is just wow
What a fantastic lesson and demonstration. I wonder how you recorded fingers through transparent fretboard. Stunning! Best left hand principles I’ve ever seen. (OK, right hand since I’m left handed. 😀)
Had all these ideas and images in my head. Took me some time to figure out how to materialize them and I'm so glad to see them coming through to all of you. More coming up very soon!
This is so awesome, I wanna cry

As someone who has experience both as a guitarist and creator of content similar to this one, I know how much time, planning, and effort it takes.
You've done extraordinary job, and you haven't put it behind a paywall but you are sharing it with all the world.
Thank you very very much!
