@WarmothGuitarist dude, the piece is written at a fast tempo in 16th notes, its not his fault pagannini wrote it this way
@CornDoctor Paganini basically built his career off the ability to wow audiences with his technical proficiency. It would come off as quite surprising to me if this piece were intended to showcase musicality and phrasing.
it is so great pleasure finding really talented and hard working Greek great musicians. file mou me sygkinhses pragmatika. great - great greek musician.
my right ear enjoyed this.
my left ear enjoyed this.
@Jmetal83 Not quite sloppy, it's how classical guitar soundss when it's played fast. Admittedly it does lose clarity at some points, I think that's more of a flaw with the camera's microphone.
tremolo technique??? I wanna see someone do this with just i-m... yamashita ever do it?
great playing!!!!
Simply the best guitarist ever !!! Congratulations !!!
With love from Greece,Patras
the sound quality could be better but I think this is the best version of this tune I have heard on youtube. incredibly well played
This is unbelieieieievable and i don't talk only about the way he plays which is amaaaaaazing but the way comments are... I mean that no greek has written any thing..... But because i am greek ΚΑΤΑΠΛΗΚΤΙΚΟ πραγματικά έχω μείνει με ανοιχτό το στόμα:οοοοοοο
Mravo Dimitri!!!! Ypothetw einai polla xronia prin... Poly katharo paiksimo kai oi tonismoi htan katanohtoi!!!! De vrika kamia ektelesi me kithara pou na mou aresei toso...
Maravilloso, un deleite para los que amamos la guitarra y la musica en general....
excellent , this guitarist is great !!! ...I've read some other comments where the appearance of musician's is important to some people...remember that if you close your eyes you can still hear the music
You're fantastic.
STUNNING!!
Il gere ! Geniallissime !
mis respetos para este tipo
@watisupdood Not that you'll understand but let me clarify for those who can, this is not music; this is a selection of notes played in a certain order, with absolutely no emotion or passion fused with them in order to create the divine sound that is music.
I hope you learned something :)
Pretty amazing!
The man is a master.
total awesomeness
excellent!!!!!!!!!!
I bet this guy knows all the chords. Just joking, amazing. Even without a cutaway. Makes the rest of us 'guitar players' look decidedly below average.awesome.
fantastic
Fine execution indeed.
amazing
Amazing classical technique.
Owned!!!!!
bravo !!!!
γεια σου ρε Δημήτρη !!
I get something different tekhnical if Dimitri play this Caprice No 5 . I meant different tekhnic basic with me. BUT DIMITRI very Great use 3 finger very fast.BRAVOO.... Dimitri I like him. I get much inspirations
Bravissimo
muy bueno.
If Paganini was alive , it would be interesting to hear HIS opinion...Personally, I think that the Greek Dimitris is a FORMIDABLE virtuoso.Bravo!
TOP DIGITACION.
Bravo
mpravo sto paidi !
just...perfect so glad that this guy is greek
Unbelievable. Amazing.
And how dare you say add distortion.
Alfred Potter Guitar HUGE FAN!
this man is crazy
Hi!
Tx for your kind words, its really a hell of a lot of difficult my friend...
@boxtrap21 having talent doesn't really equate to becoming famous. this guy is gifted but plays music reserved for a society of people who appreciate it. most of the general public don't have appreciation for classical music, but i guess he's famous in the classical society.
man this guy is great............is that you?
Poli pio duskolo se ki8ara apo violi
Bravissimo !!!
:-)
@TheEs379 that is actually so true
Shit this guys has some -AMAZING- chops....
Oh my God!
Shit hot, im extremely jealous of your dedication. I'm more of an electric player myself, but i aspire to reach this kind of level one day (pfft no chance) P.S. How difficult is this piece to play on guitar? it looks insane
@tico7464 I do realize that Paganini wrote this. I'm just saying that it generally takes someone very dedicated to reach this level of ability. And while a person spends those 12 hours a day practicing music, it doesn't leave much time to develope anything else in life. It becomes borderline savantism.
@jewelfewel I'm a classical musician. A classical guitarist, none the less :)
'He badly lacks dynamics'
I think I'll put that comment up on my hypothetical fridge.
ooooooo f*cking aweeeensooome!!! GREAT!
godlike
dedicado para Alejandro de la Vega...... qué dijo en un episodio a su hijo Diego...SI PORQUE ES UN TRABAJO MUY EXTENUANTE TOCAR LA GUITARRA ... de modo sarcástico obviamente que viejo choto
he is playing even with the pinki!!!!
honestly i think vai would clap for him, this guy is fucking sick man
Θεοοοοός !!!
Yep, Classical, Jazz and Metal musicians all can learn a thing or two from Paganini.
that was the most amazing thing ive heard he plays it faster than fisk except for the begining
holy shit!!! insane! suscribe!!!!
his right hand is awesome
His hands are flying !
How old is this record?
μπραβοο κυριεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεεε
@skeleton0578 No, it is hard work.
my next project
my respect :O
Not really , it is mostly built upon 3 notes per string , so it's harder to finger pick it.
Not at all. If you don't recognise the magnitude of this piece then I assume you've never studied theory. This piece presents numerous quite beautiful digital patterns which would've inspired countless subsequent compositions and a fair few improvised jazz lines. You can practice this not only for speed by playing through the entire song, but also ideas by going over individual digital patterns, which are great for improvisation practice.
totally agree... though the polo-neck could allude to that classification
oh my god xD it's incredibly hard on an electric guitar, and this is obviously a lot harder to play *_* i am impressed
very impressive ! sounds so much better on classical guitar than electric guitar !
wow
wow better then a electric guitar awsame
And very talented
WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!! this is just fucking amazing! O.O
Classical guitar, and it pwns electrc and acoustic.
naah.....the camera sound doesn't help that much but i think this piece can only be nailed on the electric and Vai did it perfectly. but other than that this guy is amazing.
so you can play the open A string, awesome!
Amazing... O_o'
@sweeney665 or on the violin :)
That's fucking Godlike.
Esa es la canción que yo toco para calentar antes de ponerme a tocar en serio. 😎
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow. His fret hand looks like an angry spider trying to avoid getting stomped. Very cool.
μπραβο κυριεεε!! :DD
That's pretty impressive. But can you play Smoke on the Water?
Actually, this is his diploma excamination performance.
He was only 19 8-{
@RandomMocker i don't disagree with you. you've never heard of him because you probly don't listen to classical music. i've never heard of him, either, but that doesn't mean this isn't music. its a jumble of notes, but that is considered music to some people. not me though. theres absolutely no feeling in this performance. only guitar exhibition and acrobatics. no music.
@hariskalimanis
im sure vai can play that speed. he just doesnt want to play that at that speed.
@BoeingB17FF lol do you realise how extremely stupid that comment is? Ok, I'll point out a few things wrong with what you said:
1) It's a caprice, not an etude.
2) Have you heard any other etudes before? They can be extremely musical, look towards Chopin's in particular just off the top of my head.
3) I know Paganini is considered "light music" but watch some of Pavel Steidl's 19th century guitar playing, is probably some of the most musical playing you'll ever hear.
THEOS opaixtis!!
There's no audio.
I tried to hear the music in it.. but I couldn't find it. Can someone explain me plz why people like this piece.. love to hear someone's opinion about it
:O....wow
Does anyone know which / how many fingers he usually uses when he's playing those fast scales?
Nathaniel G.M. just one!finger picking technic
@hariskalimanis via would say... hmm hes fast!
POLY KALOS FILE !!!
Sounds like someone put a vice grip on his balls and was like.. "You cant have it taken off until you played paganini's 5th caprice all the way through"...right before this video started
fuck yes.
This is incredibly fast but I think it's too fast, but a great amount of talent shown nonetheless!
Μπραβο.
yea.. Electric sounds more Steve vai'ish.. but Spanish sounds good too :)
my eye balls just popped out
