I have been asked about the sheet music and arrangements for this lovely piece. When we recorded it I did not know how to read music. I had the 18 pages (!) of sheet music in front of me and it was all greek to me, since I play by ear. I had to write down the name of each note on the sheet music, and find a way to memorise section by section, until I had memorised each note of the entire piece. We made the arrangements based on the decision that I would do all the crazy runs in the piece on my guitar. The "intro to the outro" towards the end was so challenging to play on an electric guitar that I wasn't sure until I was in the recording studio if it was humanly possible to actually play it, and make it sound good. It took 5 months of practice, many hours a day, to prepare for the recording. I also memorised Paganini's Caprice 24 at the same time, and all the other songs on that album. I had already done the "Zigeunerweisen Op. 20" recording, which was my first classical piece. That one took 6 months to memorise and rehearse. So no, I do not have any sheet music or arrangements to share. If you saw my notes on the sheet music you would just laugh and shake your heads:)
thanks for your music
are you planning to learn reading or its ok for you playing by ear?
You're an inspiration for all us self-taught musicians who struggle with the "golf clubs," as a jazz buddy of mine calls them.
Not to be too forward, don't you think about learning how to read sheet music? It would open up a whole new horizon of music for you and not tie you down for months memorizing each note of a new piece.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
What fun. Love the choice of music and practice it must have taken.
Hearing Saint-Saens played well by musicians on other instruments like this really illustrates how Romantic-era composers like him birthed the modern music we know today. Well done.
You're going to hate me for saying this, but you are so much better at this kind of stuff than the metal stuff. Sorry, but I think your playing here is way beyond what I have seen you play on any of your metal tracks. And that is a compliment!
+Gordon Heaney thanks a lot :) I agree \m/
WOW, absolutely great music
Woman and Man, Electric and Acoustic... Perfection Ying Yang of Art and Music. Beautiful place. Gorgeous interpretation.
I've spent so long listening to thrash metal I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed classical guitar music! Nice to watch too !
A lot of years looking ytube but CChief is unique for her poetry and style...
A true dream.
A real rare pearl.
Many many many many thanks for this magic, do not stop this magic.

How can a video with such great production value and talent have only 80k views. Yet any Justin Bitchber song is in the 100s of millions?
Very refreshing to see somebody playing neo-classical in a different way, standing ovation
Thanks! :)
It's day two of my viewing your videos, and I am completely blown away by both of you! As a retired session drummer for the top studios in NYC, NJ, Boston, and Bay Area of California back in the 70's. I wish I could have done percussion work for you both. As I listen, I automatically write parts for various drums and percussion and enjoy so much both your expertise . You are a very handsome couple to boot! I hope for a very long journey for you both in music to take away the stress of our crazy world. You have for me, and I thank you so much.
Outstanding! It's hard to believe the level of skill required to play this piece!
I keep coming back to this video because it's such an excellent example of dynamics that you just don't get to see in her heavier work. Not only technicality but dynamics... not bending a string, but making it cry. Not sweeping the arpeggio, but spitting in your eye.
Classical is all about dynamics in the fingers, as opposed to metal, where it is all about layers of guitars. It is two completely different worlds, when it comes to that.
Back again. Loveing it.

Brillant and elegant ! And the background décor is fantastic too, at the image of your both musical virtuosity !
Amazing example of not just technicality but finness and style.Great job!
I do not know to say...after watching your video...it's all just beyond my imagination...!!!...I have no words to describe what I feel and my thoughts about human being...I think the way you play is just beyond human capacity..!!...also your ability to memorize the notes....I think I am very lucky when I click your picture..and then saw how you play your guitar...its' just unbelievable...!! Congratulations for all your achievements....!!...warm greetings from Java, Indonesia...
Thanks a lot for your sweet comment!
Dear the commander in chief! I looked at this video without voice and only the film and then I could see how fast you move your fingers!!! WOW!
Very harmonous musician couple. Sounds beautiful!
You Two are Incredible, I love the mixture of acoustic and electric, I go back and forth myself all the time. Beautiful Playing Thank Both of You
the world stops when I hear Berit play, thankyou thankyou thankyou
Introduction & Rondo Capriccioso arranged for electric & classical guitar for the first time :) Please watch & share this video!
thecommanderinchief1 amazing, the two you sound great. Thanks for sharing! ! !
thecommanderinchief1 you're awesome (y)
thecommanderinchief1 Sweet goose bumps!
Play Beethoven's Violin Sonata 9 "Kreutzer" first movement please!!!
+thecommanderinchief1 I know a doctor she is called Dr Elizebeth Ogden this is still incredible.
+thecommanderinchief1
i went to Oslo to see the location This video and virtuoso music
has no compare I am begging for tango music ! !
Amazing and you play by ear your awesome. From New Zealand.
Thank you! Yes. I know my craft 💪🏻
Brilliant performance all round:acting and playing-Craig's cheeky deadpan look-her's sassy and commanding! Gripping performance-technique impeccable-perfect blending of sounds-has the traditionalist fraternity in a spin. Music is about entertainment and this is as good as it gets. He smokes up the 6 string classic guitar-and just for fun, The Commander plays frenetic- blitzkrieg runs on her 7 string lectric guitar- she steers the piece to the top of TH-cam in quality sound, performance and entertainment. Well done!!!!
Thank you :)
Simply stunning once again, many thanks
Love everything you both make
When I listen to this i feel like if I was on an interstellar vessel flying at light speed through the infinity of the universe... Or something like that, it's hard to describe.
Captain Future, in the past.
Now every time I hear the Saint-Saëns theme I remember you guys version. That's nice and funny situation :)
That's awesome!
@@thecommanderinchief1 You're so smart ;)))
Absolutely beautiful!!!

Many thanks guys fantastic !!
🤹🤸🏼♀️🤸🏼♀️🤹🤹🐈
So fantastic !!!
Masterfully done!
I think you are really brave and one of the most innovative electric players around to simply play complex music like that without hiding behind a mound of overdrive and effects. To play with such a clean tone and to play with high level classical players like Craig Ogden is a real testament to your talent and ability. I would be worried about messing up the timing and dynamics to go anywhere near that! Though from your latest album, the biggest surprise was your voice: a great singing voice, surprisingly high, but ethereal and very beautiful. Looking forward to hearing more - a new fan! :)
Thank you!!! :)
Wonderful pairing of electric and Classical acoustic, and in a spectacular Oslo setting, too!
BRAVOOOOOO ... Best Regards From Brazil.
This is opening new possibilities for the instrument.
this is beautiful
10 minutes of flawlessly playing! That must have taken you guys so long to learn!!
Amazing job!!

Amazing stuff.
amazing!!
Amazing!!!!
Maravilloso!
So awesome!te admiro
Exquisite.
And badly needed....
Impressive!! Music at its finest! :)
I always thought this piece sounded like it was written for electric guitar before they were invented. Saint-Saens was way before his time. Great job with the interpretation!
Nah dude, can't agree there. It's impressively done and performed amazingly. But I can't help but feel the piece loses its soul without the violin's bow.
you thought what
Great music from both C In C and Craig Ogden.I just bought his latest CD "Craig and Friends" 17 beautiful tracks.
Congratulatios from México. Chiapas. WONDERFUL...MUSIC...WONDERFUL INTERPRETERS.
awesome stuff!
Truly amazing!... now show us the actual recording please!
BRAVO!
Very, very nice!!!
I had some reservations (the original violin and piano was playing in my head while listening to this guitars version) but the passage that starts at 8'18" won me over.
Regardless: great job, both of you are amazing!!
Increíble!
she is incredible....
AWESOME!!!!
Thanks!!
