The part you recognized was "Air", by Johann Sebastian Bach. Part of Malmsteen's charm is his quotations of classical music. One of the fans' favourites is another instrumental, "Far Beyond the Sun": th-cam.com/video/BrOCQqFOOew/w-d-xo.html . But most of his production is not instrumental, like "I am a viking" (well, he's Swedish, and -funny thing- the best version was with a singer from Puerto Rico). Here it is with another classical melody (Adagio) as an introduction : th-cam.com/video/b40S3Vkq0eM/w-d-xo.html And if you want to see him performing with a symphonic orchestra, "Sarabande" is a beautiful example: th-cam.com/video/FyZcVd-lJWs/w-d-xo.html
Yngwie inspired the neo classical musical style and pretty much carried the torch for many years a lot of the top players today listened to him and were inspired by him I know I heard both John pettruci and Jeff loomis talk about how he influenced them
Do you recognize the name Johann Sebastian Bach? That's where you have heard that composition before! Wow it's too bad that people aren't taught the great composers anymore. I gave my children a healthy background in classical music because it is where all music comes from. Yngwie isn't playing Flamingo, he's playing traditional classical guitar with a Neoclassical flair. His favorite musicians are Paganini and Bach so it makes sense that he would compose a composition such as this!
Ok, you like Yngwie, how about Zakk Wylde (Voodoo Child) th-cam.com/video/s1OGQQk5HpM/w-d-xo.html Or Generation Axe (Yngwie, Zakk Wylde, Steve Via, Nino Bettencourt, and Tosin Abasi (Bohemian Rhapsody) th-cam.com/video/AxNOpvXh63I/w-d-xo.html Or for a great female guitar player, Samatha Fish (Sympathy for the Devil) th-cam.com/video/Sc5S1BxSD2w/w-d-xo.html

In the most popular heavey metal magazine in 80''s (the british publication "Metal Hammer") he was all years elected best guitarist by the readers.
The legend of the most popular heavy metal... I like it 😍
The man is a sheer joy to watch. I love his mannerisms and his swagger.

He listed as the fastest guitarist ever. You should see him play with a full orchestra.
Yay Ing vay! God, I discovered this guitar god in the 80s! I miss his music and all that stuff long gone now 😪
Oh, the classical music was used in a famous cigar brand advert here in the UK 🇬🇧

More and more from yngwie malmsteen next far beyound the sun live in leningrad 1989 or flamenco diablo
Cheers Lee. He is an amazing guitarist. All part of the journey of the fret wankers 😂😂😂
#freethetelecaster
Yngwie is a lot more than a wanker, he's a game changer like Hendrix and EVH before him. Cheers
@@epic103 Fret wanker is totally different to just wanker. It's a term of respect amongst us.
@@bazkeen - it's all good, in case the wind shifted :)
All hail malmsteen, without him we would not have some of the greatest wankers we have today! Massive respect!
