I play guitar as a hobby and was compelled to comment. The discipline to play on the level of John Williams is superhuman. He is a treasure and the apex of humanity. The world needs less greed/suffering and more music.
I ABSOLUTELY agree! I’m not musical myself but I listen for hours each week to beautiful music!!! There’s nothing soothes the soul, heals or stirs emotion the way music does. Sometimes you can become excited and want to say to someone “listen to this music, it will make your heart soar!” It’s so evocative in many ways and whatever you love becomes so personal to oneself… 🎶 🎵 ❤️❤️❤️
There is a sad history behind this masterpiece, Maestro Rodrigo lost his newborn daughter and his wife was extremelly sick. Is a song to God, on the one hand, he reproaches him for his daughter being born dead and, on the other, implores him to save his wife. Once this history is known this beautifull adagio is full of sense.
Absolute chills every single time I hear this masterpiece. I can only imagine what the live audience felt as they listened to this masterful interpretation. Magnificent, absolutely magnificent!!!!❤
It is one of the most beautiful music compositions ever. Full of sorrow but strikingly beautiful and what a joy to hear Master guitarist John Williams performing it.
John Williams Emulated Joquin Rodrigo ,believing him to be the greatest Guitar and piano player ever to be born . This piece written after Rodrigo,s wife gave birth to his dead son, the strumming if the guitar is the beating heart of the baby . Rodrigo,s loss was for his child and his wife nearly dying too . hence this soul wrenching masterpiece .
Exquisite, absolutely one of the most beautiful pieces of classical music ever composed. It evokes longing- of lost love, of those dearly departed or of love to come.
My Mum adored this...it's 5 years ago this Tuesday that she died, and I am sitting here moved to tears by the absolute power and beauty of this. If grief truly were the inspiration, then it fits that perfectly.
+Natasha Weldon I'm sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. I lost my Mum 5 years ago in January. It's OK to be moved to tears by things you remember your Mum by. For all that, my Mom liked Elvis Presley, Gene Pitney, Englebert Humperdink, and Roy Orbison :-) I'm happy to say not so long ago we used to lye on the beach in the Caribbean and she'd cry her heart out while listening to Roy Orbison's 'Crying'. Back to this music, I first heard this piece on a 'Young Musicians of the Year' show in the UK way back when....I bought John's album on vinyl on the back of that show back in the '80s.... frankly, to my untrained ear, that young man played it much better, John's left hand made a lot of 'noise' when moving on the fret board (I'm not the first to notice this) If you are tempted to buy the album get the best the critics recommend.I'm sure your Mum would be happy she's in your thoughts. Look after you now...
Amiga QT.Rehead: No sientas pena amiga, seguro estoy que tu mamá ya se habrá encontrado, allí, entre las estrellas, con nuestro Gran Maestro Rodrigo, y se darán largos paseos por el Universo Galáctico Infinito. Abrazos, y muchos recuerdos.
It’s called “Deuende” the spirit of one’s “Soul “ that lights a fire 🔥 of wantan creativity. From Flamenco 💃 dancers to Flamenco guitarist. When I hear this , the hair on the back of my neck twinge’s . And I ‘m thinking that it’s time to play some of this beautiful music. And get back to my paint & brush. And let my “Deuende” create a true masterpiece! Thank you John.
A now in 2024, I thank you Maestro, your album Bridges, arranged by Stanley Myers, got me through university 40 years ago. The album notes I recalled said "God placed a finger on your brow" -Indeed. An extraordinary artist. I always carried that quote with me. Remain ever blessed!
Every time I listen to this piece I close my eyes and see a herd of beautiful magnificent Andalusian stallions galloping across the country side . Their tails and manes flowing in the breeze.
I am watching this and about to write it down into the music for my father’s funeral. He loved this piece so much. I’ve loved it too for many years and now forever will associate it with thoughts of him. He’ll enjoy this and his favourite Rachmaninov from somewhere in the distant reaches of time where I can no longer talk with him, but where the warm teardrops of this music will always be in his heart... Rest in peace to this beautiful music, dad x
this was mine and my husbands favorite piece - he passed away two years ago and I played it at his funeral. Listening to it every time brings tears to my eyes, just like now. Beautiful piece
Deepest thanks for sharing the inspirational circumstances that inspired the great Rodrigo to write this masterpiece. As with all amazing music it can trigger personal emotional life changing memories in any one of us. For me it is an eternal blessing.
We have a CD of an interview they made with the composer about this piece. The beginning was the heartbeat and then grief. This composition is one bare emotion of the composer. It make the music more than just beautiful...
Such a wonderful piece of music and beautifully play by John Williams and the entire orchestra. I was entranced from beginning to end ..... magical experience !
NOVIT, QUE BUENA EXPLICACION!! LO IGNORABA!!! PERO SIN SABER PORQUE' ME GUSTO' SIEMPRE!!! HERMOSA INTERPRETACION!!! VIVA ESPAÑA TODAAAA!!! SALUDOS DESDE URUGUAY.🇪🇸💓👋
Sublime music from my most beloved SPAIN ESPAÑA. Beatifuly played by Mr Williams and a fabulous orchestra conducted by Maestro Pappano. Guitar will for ever the authentic instrument for Spanish great music. Outstanding composer Joaquín Rodrigo.
The world seems to be in a state of abject turmoil at present, but this is an antidote to it all. Williams is a master craftsman and the arrangement is exquisite. There is no other deity that comes close to this level of musical perfection.
Why do you religious people always give credit to your god.? The credit goes to Mr. Williams...for his dedicated years and years of training..and talent. Credit where credit is due..
No matter where in the world I am, when I hear this master work I am immediately transported to the Meseta in northern Spain, walking yet again on the Camino towards Santiago de Compostela
listened many times to the flugelhorn version, especially that in Brassed Off, and only found out today it was originally written for the guitar. So, I looked for it and came across this - MY GOD! it is by far the best..... I don`t think I will ever get tired of listening to this...
Una de las más hermosas obras que gracias a Dios existe, ese oboe se mete en la piel, o será que es mi instrumento preferido, trasmite melancolía, amo esta pieza.
No toco ningún instrumento. No tengo ningún sentido del ritmo ni se cantar o bailar pero he visto y escuchado esta pieza centenares de veces y sin ninguna duda es la mejor interpretación que he visto y escuchado en mi vida. Mejor incluso que la de algún otro maestro de la guitarra. La precisión de John Williams es sencillamente sobrehumana, no solo por la técnica si no por la calidez de las notas y las forma de interpretarlas: en su momento justo. Es sencillamente espectacular. De otro planeta.
La historia que encierra el Concierto de Aranjuez: En 1933 Joaquín Rodrigo y su esposa, la pianista turca Victoria Kamhi, pasaron su luna de miel en Aranjuez (de ahí el nombre de Concierto de Aranjuez). Un tiempo después se fueron a Alemania. Allí esperaban tener a su primer hijo. El niño nació muerto y su mujer estuvo a punto de morir. En el segundo movimiento Joaquín cuestiona a Dios (orquesta) por el aborto espontáneo que ha tenido su mujer, perdiendo a su hijo y rogando que su mujer se mantuviera viva; esto se expresa mediante el pulso de la guitarra (al comienzo del segundo movimiento), que representa un corazón latiendo. El movimiento tiene pena, rabia y desesperación. Al final, en el clímax de la guitarra y la orquesta (que representa a Dios), Joaquín Rodrigo "oye a Dios" y por fin se produce la rendición y aceptación de los hechos, hasta alcanzar la paz tan anhelada por Joaquín Rodrigo (final del concierto).
Gracias, esto no lo sabia, habia aceptado (quizas de manera perezosa) la narativa popular que la obra estaba solamente una expresión del compositor de la ciudad de Aranjuez y de su Palacio de Verano con su Sala de Porcelana (que visitó hace muchos años). Hace quasi medio siglo yá, vi a Narciso Yepes al Royal Albert Hall tocando el Concierto de Aranjuez y jamás lo olvidaré. Para una muy joven mujer, fue una descubierta inesperada de una cultura muy diferente de la mia. "The soul of Spain" was how this young woman perceived it. Lo que ha escrito Vd añade una dimension nueva y otra y tan poderosa en emoción a la obra. Gracias de nuevo. Disculpe los erores en mi castellano! th-cam.com/video/RxwceLlaODM/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=bonsillens
Hello . I really think all of you should also check out a Philips recording done in 1994 by Pepe Romero with the Academy of St Martin in the fields under Sir Neville Marriner . I say this because of the concise break down including time stamps . Which you can access in the description . This was uploaded onto TH-cam on LindoroRossini's YT channel [Feb 1 2011] It's a very beautiful version of which even Joaquin himself praised . Pepe Romero was not finely versed with notes and came from a flamenco back ground and so interpreted it according to rhythm .
The maestro was blind. this adds to the poignancy and beauty of this masterpiece. I was privileged to attend the civil ceremony of a friend, an artist, in Aranjuez
A alguien mas los hace llorar? Invariablemente, tal majestuosidad, tal excelencia, tal exquisitez... y además, no se, el Concierto de Aranjuez, por lo menos en el sur yo lo oía desde muy chiquito. Fabuloso de verdad!!!! Salud a todos!!!
Самая прекрасная музыка на планете.. Каждый вечер - слушаю. и наслаждаюсь, Как много в ней недосказанной судьбы.. Судьбы невернувшихся из моря.. И о тех, то ждал на берегу..
An orchestra, a musical ensemble, any collection of fine musicians playing a wonderful composition, giving their talent, knowledge and feeling to the re-creation of music, working together for the purpose they share is a wonderful act of humanity, unlike almost any other. If only we, the human race, could perform our other endeavors in the same way !
Sentimiento, belleza absoluta, inspiración total, ejecucion sublime en una pieza musical que es evidencia y patrimonio de la nobleza humana. Enseñemosla a nuestros hijos y amigos, estaran agradecidos y los hará mejores personas!!
Listen to his dynamics and depth, and try to understand its breath, for it is an expression of despair, love and triumph, far beyond any singular touch! As emotions are hard to capture and so is the will of man. When you hear a master at work on his guitar, it's more than awesome, it is breath taking, which can even make angels cry, and move them to do great things! I know am blessed to have been able to hear such goodness in my lifetime!
Ich fühle die warme Hand in meinem Nacken die mir sagt daß alles gut ist und die Liebe NOCH da ist wenn man sie sehen kann. Das wünsche ich jedem Menschen von Herzen.
This is an incredibly moving, euphoric, melancholy, sensual piece of music. Everytime I listen, my body just tingles, and my body hairs just stand up!!!! I have listened to many versions and this the best by far. Absolutely Stunning!!!!! 💗💗💗💗💗💗
This is, arguably, my favorite, the second movement of the most fascinating, Concierto De Aranjuez. The second movement is so powerfully beautiful and completely engaging, that it made me cry. Joaquin Rodrigo’s my favorite Spanish composer alongside Russian’s Nikolai Rimsky Korsakov and American composer Jerry Goldsmith. Beethoven’s my favorite German composer, Offenbach,, being my favorite French composer ( I also like Camille Saint Saens and Claude Debussy too). John Williams is my favorite guitarist, Jacqueline Du pre, cellist and Joshua Bell, violinist. My favorite horn player is now tied as both Dennis Brain AND Barry Tuckwell.
Silahların ruhlarımızı kararttığı dünyada, müziğin evrensel diliyle ruhlarımızın aydınlanacağı bir dünyada yaşama ümidimizi ve gayretimizi artıran tüm sanat emekçilerine selam olsun.
my late grandad played this on a on lp in the 70s, after getting me to say what the piece was in Spanish. He said it reminded of home, he was an exile from Catalonia, having fought in the civil war and had to flee Spain.
I play guitar as a hobby and was compelled to comment. The discipline to play on the level of John Williams is superhuman. He is a treasure and the apex of humanity. The world needs less greed/suffering and more music.

So sad, so hauntingly beautiful. An absolute masterpiece.
It is one of the most beautiful music compositions ever. Full of sorrow but strikingly beautiful and what a joy to hear Master guitarist John Williams performing it.
Music is the food of love. We need more music and less wars.
I just love this piece of music! It should be played as a tribute to all those lost in the 2024 floods 😢
This is the only piece of music that always brings tears to my eyes. Gracias Don Joaquin.

Hi. Here is a 84 years woman,in Portugal, listening to this wonderful music. It's one of my favorits. The interpretation is absolutely amazing.
E então porque é que não escreve em português, que é a sua língua materna, creio eu ?
So beautifully played by John as was the orchestra too. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire performance.
“This” is real music and real talent!!
The orchestra is even better, incredible ! The lady starting the piece was divine...
This piece takes me to places that I could've never imagined. Makes me melancholy and euphoric at the same time ..... and I love it.
That's a really great description of the piece. Thanks for sharing.

Written for the loss of the composers child at birth. Deeply moving.
Thank you, John for turning me into a blubbering wreck for the duration of this track. Music can really stir the soul in most unexpected ways ❤️
For me it’s yet more evidence that God exists.

Sublime music from my most beloved SPAIN ESPAÑA. Beatifuly played by Mr Williams and a fabulous orchestra conducted by Maestro Pappano. Guitar will for ever the authentic instrument for Spanish great music. Outstanding composer Joaquín Rodrigo.
Speechless...Being an empath this piece of music makes me cry in a good way:)
I love this concierto since I was a little girl and the second movement touchs my heart ❤
I am in bliss listening to the best music ever created!
One of those pieces that always gives me the shivers no matter what instrument its played on. The oboe always does it for me as well.
Cor Anglais not Oboe
I always bask in the heat, rather than shiver, but I know what you mean.
Exactly! One of the most beautiful yet mournful instruments in the composer's palette.@@stumpster31
Too long
The world seems to be in a state of abject turmoil at present, but this is an antidote to it all. Williams is a master craftsman and the arrangement is exquisite. There is no other deity that comes close to this level of musical perfection.
There is always a hope in my mind that one day, music will unite us all.
What a privilege to be humbled in listening to this fantastic but sad piece.😂❤
The vast majority of humankind is good. But we need to unite against the negative forces
This piece of art came from heaven.
No, it came from a composer who studied. No heabvens no gods no false credits. Reality.
@morbidmanmusic actually it's a dialogue with God according to maestro Rodrigo himself.
It came from Spain and was played by Mr Williams on a Spanish guitar. ¡Viva España!
No matter where it comes from:
It is HEAVEN!❤😊
Why do you religious people always give credit to your god.?
The credit goes to Mr. Williams...for his dedicated years and years of training..and talent.
Credit where credit is due..
No matter where in the world I am, when I hear this master work I am immediately transported to the Meseta in northern Spain, walking yet again on the Camino towards Santiago de Compostela
This master piece is so beautiful and heartbreaking! Never tired to appreciate.

Did you know that the writer, Rodrigo, was blind?
Sublime. Its fills my heart with the very essence of my beloved Spain. Haunting and beautiful.
Such a heart wrenching and emotional piece of music.❤
Roof down volume max driving driving through the mountain in Switzerland pure bliss
The crescendo never fails to send shivers down my spine. What a privilege to watch the genius that is John Williams.

Maravillosa ejecución de un gran guitarrista y de una magnífica orquesta, enhorabuena!!
Me encanta!!! Mágica!!! Espectacular!!!!❤❤❤❤
I remember when I first bought this recording, box set at the time, have loved it ever since such beautiful music
This is an incredibly moving, euphoric, melancholy, sensual piece of music. Everytime I listen, my body just tingles, and my body hairs just stand up!!!!
I have listened to many versions and this the best by far. Absolutely Stunning!!!!! 💗💗💗💗💗💗
Esta pieza es única. Es un carrusel de emociones, lo adoro. Siempre me provoca nostalgia y tristeza, es una maravilla...
Disculpa mi ignorancia como se llama esta melodía ?! Y que tengas buenas tardes gracias !
@@valentinosvelasco7022el titulo lo dice. Concieeto de Aranjuez, 2do Movimiento, Adagio.
Music is my first love and it helps me become part of the whole Universal Energy✨🙏✨
This is, arguably, my favorite, the second movement of the most fascinating, Concierto De Aranjuez. The second movement is so powerfully beautiful and completely engaging, that it made me cry. Joaquin Rodrigo’s my favorite Spanish composer alongside Russian’s Nikolai Rimsky Korsakov and American composer Jerry Goldsmith. Beethoven’s my favorite German composer, Offenbach,, being my favorite French composer ( I also like Camille Saint Saens and Claude Debussy too). John Williams is my favorite guitarist, Jacqueline Du pre, cellist and Joshua Bell, violinist. My favorite horn player is now tied as both Dennis Brain AND Barry Tuckwell.
Lots of names here to dig into deeper! Thank you!
You have good taste madam.
Jerry Goldsmith? The Omen Suite guy?
I shed a tear or two every time I click on this & hear that English Horn come in. What a beautiful sound.
Transportingly powerful...amazing piece, amazing rendition.
it is being in another world simply when you listen to it! thx a mil senor!
Silahların ruhlarımızı kararttığı dünyada, müziğin evrensel diliyle ruhlarımızın aydınlanacağı bir dünyada yaşama ümidimizi ve gayretimizi artıran tüm sanat emekçilerine selam olsun.
Hear hear and Amen to that, dear one ❤😂
Genius composition. Masterfully performed by Mr Williams and the orchestra. 👏
Can listen to this all day ,every day ,what a lovely story ❤️
my late grandad played this on a on lp in the 70s, after getting me to say what the piece was in Spanish. He said it reminded of home, he was an exile from Catalonia, having fought in the civil war and had to flee Spain.
The most beautiful rendition of one of the few pieces of music that stirs me to tears
Fabulous! The heart adores this…❤❤❤ astounding 🎵
Appreciation of music such as this quiets the soul and brings us closer to the Mind of God.
No.. to the mind of the composer. Gods aren't real
Man...we can really put something together when we care and try. After the pandemic, as an American, I really wish we still had this creativity
