It’s really important to know what the masters do behind the scenes . This is really helpful for musicians who don’t have a mentor , trying to make it on their own . Thank you !
They do the same thing as beginners. Practice scales and practice technuiqe. Many believe it to be some sort of magical secret. It isnt.
Remember when Will and Fritz were spies in the City of the Masters? Beanpole didn't make it though, which was probably for the best.
The last thing she said is the most important to me: “challenge yourself everyday”. Every guitarist finds their own perfect daily routine someday, but to challenge ourselves is the one thing we have in common - along with the passion to make music.
As a beginner it's a challenge just constantly correcting my technique :b
@@an6350 Even the best musicians in the world are constantly correcting their technique -- it's a never-ending process. Rachmaninov once wrote in his letter to his brother about working on improving his middle finger technique :)
I am grateful for every minute of Ms. Vidovic's practice. Absolute legend.
Very informative! Geez, if Ana has to work on scales daily then I sure better be!!
Yep, can't forget the basics. Though I think it's better to think of them as foundations.
@@joshwoods7641 no foundation, the house crumbles. I have long been convinced by a warming up video of Brandon Acker's to introduce such exercises into my hobbyist routine, and believe in them. But imagining doing that for almost an hour prior to even starting gives quite an impression. Well, she is about the world champion after all.
@@markus-hermannkoch1740 If playing guitar is your whole job, one hour a day seems not that much
I heard someone say we like what we give our attention to. I like guitar more and more the more I practice.
Playing guitar is like fine wine!
Ana, who is a very accomplished player, is giving us here a very down to earth picture of what it takes to
achieve at such a high level.
I've been in her wonderful concert at Bad Aibling Saitensprünge Festival in 2019. She never lost concentration nor the audience did. Very focused but effortless - fascinating!
Danke für den Tipp, das Festival hört sich sehr verlockend an. Wäre eine gute Gelegenheit, um einen Ausflug nach Bayern zu machen.
It's only personal but if you want to be a creative artist, and better understand the music you play and the creative process behind it, I would definitely recommend adding improvisation into your daily routine. It's something that has been sadly lost in classical tradition. Bach, Mozart, Beethoven and Listz were all great improvisers.
I'm a jazz musician, that's all I do all day long! :-DDDD
If you want to understand the music you play, learn music theory. Improvisation is a completely different skill set.
@@Rodrigo-me6nq theory without the practical part is not complete.
@@Rodrigo-me6nq to improvise, you have to know the rules, that means, theory.
@@quimcastilla You are not gonna tell me the traditional wetern music theory you leanr in conservatories is completely identical to the "rules" of improvisation are you?
I am a SELF-TAUGHT since the MID-1970s and only for my personal enjoyment/hobby utilizing the METHODS of Andres Segovia, and the Christopher Parkening books, Carulli/Sor STUDIES.
Thanks for Sharing this ANA, You are one of the World's Few GrandMasters of the Guitar.
Postovana Ana, mozda me se sjecate. Upoznali smo se negdje 1998. u Rijeci, kada ste imala koncert u Guvernerovoj palaci. Dao sam vam moj, tada jos kao script, neobjavljen prijevod knjige Petera Päffgena, "Die Gitarre", "Gitara". Zagrebacki "Music play" je objavio kasnije moj prijevod. Negdje 2000. bili smo putem mobitela kratko u kontaktu u Dubrovniku. Dobro se toga sjecam. Upoznao sam se kasnije i sa vasim bratom Viktorom. Bas tada, 1998. presao sam od klasicne gitare, premda sam na gitari svirao, i jos uvijek na njoj sviram razlicite stilove, na 13-parnu baroknu lutnju. To je moja druga "dama", moja velika ljubav pored prve ljubavi, gitare.
Pozdravljam vas iz Njemacke, gdje radim kao zastitar.
Svako dobro vama i vasoj obitelji u Karlovcu.
Thanks for your honest answers, Ana!
I was always curious about her routine, thank you so much Tonebase !
I didn't think Ana Vidovic prepares so much. As she is a phenomena .....But good to know even Ana has a strict practice routine...
when I watch her I think It's so easy for her. Great interview.
“Nothing that looks effortless is effortless.” - Tiffany Poon
Fabulous interview. Thank you
Thanks for this. Like so many greats in any venue, the discipline to practice the simple first, then use the movements to practice the complex to perfection in performance.
Very glad to hear you talk about how the stage performance is only the tip of the iceberg of the work involved. Inspires me to keep working.
I love listening to your videos, and hope this covid mess ends so that I can hear you live.
Thanks so much!
Feeling so fortunate to hear this virtuoso share her thoughts with us. What an extraordinary musician she is. We are all so lucky to have this online from you.
Amazing video, very useful! Love you, Ana Vidovic, you're a master! 🤍
Thanks for share!!
Dear Ana. Thank you SO much for sharing your interview with us lovers of the guitar, a splendid interview, so so informative and so helpful guidance to all who are just falling or who are already in love with the guitar. Ana you are such a huge encouragement and an excellent guitarist just like Milos!!! To watch and hear you play is Gorgeous. My friends daughter is just learning to play guitar and having just today watched your video I thought WOW wonderful Ana's interview i shall share with my friend for his daughter.
My very best wishes to you and your loved one for a very
Very Happy New Year.
Thank you Diamond fingers.

A great woman anytime anywhere. You are blessed
One of my inspiration in classical guitar playing ✨
Thanks for sharing Ms Vidovic !!
Her rendition of Recuerdos de la Alhambra us one of my favorite takes on any classical music ever.
Thank you Ana!
such an inspiring interview
I totally agree with her that most guitarists are a bit different from other musicians in that they have obsession with the instrument, not just the music. There are many amateurs who are only doing for hobby but are very devoted. I have never come across a guitarist who is only doing it for a job, like many orchestral players I have met. It's very seldom to see guitarists who possess only one guitar; normally they have more than one, because they love it.
Super helpful and informative. The point about practicing with the score is so important. Mistakes do indeed creep up over time if you don’t practice with a score.
Thx you-Ana! Much appreciated share.
A woman of virtue!
I studied classical guitar seriously then put it aside for about 40 years. Now I'm playing and writing pop/folk rock music but I practice just like Ana recommends, including scales and metronome work.
Thank you for this! I do much the same with my practice routine particularly scales and Villa Lobos etude and Bach preludes at the beginning. I teach my students to play everything they are working on three times each day. Thank you, Ana!
amazing. thank you.
It appears the genuinely expressive artists are yield to the structure and discipline
I LOVE her!
Awesome ❤
Such discipline!
Very humble and brilliant lady
Thanks Ana I am just learning the basics so I am sure lots of people can answer this. I am just focusing on reading the music and developing my Kinesthetic memory of the fret board. So I know where each note is. And my left hand fingers have to learn the combinations so I can read and play. I don't look at my left hand at all. I have found if focus my left hand position to 1st 5th 7th frets that I can memorize and play this. But I don't see other people do this. They just play from memory and look at the left hand. And I am astonished at how real musicians can remember perfectly a vast complex scores.
Phenomenal performance🎶👍👍👍
Wow. A lot of her warm ups and playing. Is similar to mine. I also play with the score or with the song. It helps with feeling it and not thinking about what to do next. Allowing me to enjoy playing the piece or song.
A woman of absolute substance...
Love her!❤️
you inspire me.
Uh, very interesting and inspiring video!
I'm big fan of her!
Awesomeness.
Perfecting technique is a lifelong process. Even when you are a master, you can always discover more. It is a beautiful and terrifying thing.
What I hear when she plays and in this is one word. METRONOME. I think it's very easy to lose control and get VERY sloppy, and I think (for where I am at least) keeping that in check is very important. I don't think most of us will ever play as well as she does, but I think that there's also no magic to it. Personally, even if I had the raw materials, I really don't think I'd be willing to put in the work it takes to really polish it to a high level.
I do think that metronome is the real key, rhythmic entrainment for the audience, and also conditioning for your nervous system that allows both speed an precision. Playing with the metronome really does so much more than I would have ever expected. It's almost magic.
Questions I would like: What practice habits have been the most useful to you? How do you learn new pieces? What are your favorite easy pieces to play? What are some of the ways you cheat when you practice or play? How has the way you practised changed over the years?
Awesome questions and answers.
Seems like a burning desire for Ana.
Please do not quit and keep smiling and have fun.
Ana is good. I love her first movement to Aranjuez.
Thank' s Ana. .. So Nice ... ☺😊😀/💙💙💙/👍👌👏👋
😍😍😍good
Very good words of wisdom. It would be nice to see Anna play some pop songs like "Feeling Groovy" or "I'm Not in Love" or "Papa Was a Rolling Stone" to shake things up and make it more fun. It would be a stretch for her and even a challenge to break away from the rigorous, if not rigid, standards of classical music. But she seems very sensible, and I think the public would go along. It would be great to bring in some new blood to the white-haired (or blue-haired) crowd. One thing I think that is very important in a career in classical music is to get a patron. Anna should talk about this because it probably makes or breaks your career. Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven all had patrons and this is essential, absolutely essential.
Ugg I love her.
She practically says that if you are not obsessed by the guitar you probably stay better beeing a listener. So I will stay a listener on Ana Vidovic, this is my new decision
This is priceless
This was lovely to listen to, very interesting. Will you play me Capriche Arabe please I love this so much ❤️🔥😁🙏
Masterpiece
You heard it from the best, devotion is perfection
Nice
...wow,good information, and your .opinion on ,the 20 guitar study,Fernando Sor?.
❤❤
Dear Ms Vidovic, you forgot to mention the parental nurturing, the books you've read, the paintings and painters you love, the museums you have visited in so many cities where you've given concerts--and all the other artistic input that has made you go beyond the monumental technical mastery that so many others without your artistic foundation have achieved.
God she is such a lovely guitarist, I hope I get to hear her sometime live! Many thanks. Gérard lacey in Ireland.
Me too.
She brought up a lot of great points. Definitely need to work on getting a more formal warmup routine
Viodovic es de mis favoritas, pero no entiendo el ingles gracias
Compadre ella está hablando sobre la importancia de practicar escalas, ejercisios y tecnica diariamente !!
Ana, Zagreb te voli! 😀
I ostatak Hrvatske!🙋♀️
Can someone tell me what the ending piece was?
Does anyone know the name of the piece that’s playing at the very end? That trill really gets me going
It sounds like a sonata by Domenico Scarlatti - she has recorded several.
What is the name of the piece in the outro?
Tôi mê tiếng đàn của bạn
What's the title of the guitar music at the end of this video?
Ah... the basics, always the basics, good advice.
Man that sounds like a lot of fun, practicing the first three Lobos Etudes just to keep one's technical level ... I would rather shoot myself.
Aw I like those etudes. They’re not bad. I’ve only learned 1 and 2 though.
How did she get younger after all these years!?
She’s a goddess
She's still just 40 though
So, she is saying that Guitar mastery is like trading mastery and bodybuilding. Nice!
Just curious when you say.. "I play the scales slowly at metronome.." I have seen a marvelous old video from A.Segovia where he advices to perform the scales first time slowly and second quickly... but listening the first for me is already fast :-) so what's your time set at metronome for slow ? Above all.. congratulation. interesting and formative video
60 bpm and then gradually up
You have to judge that based entirely on your own ability. There is no right answer.
@@briankeenanguitar Yes! That is what I would say now.
Which etudes she's taking about? Carcassi or Giuliani?
Villa-Lobos etudes 1, 2 and 3.
Ella toca la guitarra.
About be a professional guitarist. It´s really complicated, because It´s not like several jobs, that you have some perspective. If I decide to be a classical guitarist, I have no perspective, there´s no sure plan or guarantee. It´s a very decision. Of course...If you have some condition to mantain you basics, you livelihood, and can dedicate the necessary time to grow in the profession, go ahead!!
Was she talking about a proper way to live life or??? About classical guitar? Listen to this 3 times back to back and let us know what you think!
Guitar music @ 5:35... Title & Composer?
🙂🙂😊😊🥰🥰🤩🤩😍😍
En castellano ? . Por favor y muchas gracias
How do I get your autograph?
lobos etudes?
Right!?
I'm staying away from those Villa Lobos etudes. This confirmed for me that they are for high level guitarists.
I wish she would have played her practice routine on the guitar instead of just talking about it

.. из России с Уважением!!!
what is "score"? she says she practices with the "score" a lot...
the music sheet / manuscript where the music notes are notated
Si pudieran traducir gracias
Ella habla sobre su rutina diaria y sobre la decisión de ser músico profesional. Sobre la rutina, practica 30 a 45 minutos al día de escalas con metrónomo. Le gustan los estudios de Villa-Lobos (sobre todo el 1 para la mano derecha y el 2 y el 3 para la izquierda). Después se dedica a su repertorio de concierto u a nuevas piezas. Los ejercícios calentan sus manos para que después pueda dedicarse a su repertorio.
Sobre su repertorio, a veces se dedica a mejorar partes más difíciles, entrenándolas en separado.
Mauricio Osorio Ella suele tener objetivos previos para su día o para su semana. Suele planear su tiempo.
Sobre ser profesional: es una decisión muy difícil, hay un largo camino por recorrer. Hay que estar 100% seguro de que es lo que quieres. Hay muchas dificultades. El recital, la sala de concierto son una pequeña parte del trabajo de un músico, son la puntita visible del iceberg. Debes estar enamorado de tu instrumento, de la guitarra, y dispuesto a hacer muchos sacrificios personales.
No hay garantías y hay que trabajar por muchos años antes de llegar a compartir el fruto de tu trabajo, tu música, con las personas en una sala de concierto. Hay frustraciones en el camino y a veces el deseo de abandonarlo todo. Hay que estar obsesionado por el instrumento y desear que él tome vida en tus manos. Y desfrutar el proceso. Intenta desafiarte a ti mismo. En un resumen, eso es lo que Vidovic ha dicho.
Perdona mis errores de español; soy brasileño.
For the weekend warriors, like myself, this take on classical trading is some what misleading. The training for the masters will never be the same for the rest of us,simply our goals are very different. The only thing we have in common is practice but what and how we practice is two worlds apart. For the casual player classical training must be made simpler but inclusive:learning the c major scale and sight reading across the whole fretboard. The traditional method simply neglects the casual player. We don’t have time to practice and master 30 major/minors scales. Sight reading,for example, can take 100s of hours to learn the traditional way. Why not make simple to learn?it can and has been done!
How do you make sight reading easier?
@@raphaeldwain7834 can u see what this sequence of letters stands for: Fed C Bag
Yelp, that’s true. My point is: a good compact, not too difficult and boring is effective for any kind of player. Intensity, precision and duration may differ. But finally we are made of the same materials…😅best Wulfin
It's always 5 hrs a with proper technique forget about money give the glory to God you will always reach new heights.
For a guitarist like her, is there really a difficult part in a piece of music? The professionals, they have such a high level that a difficulty for you is not a difficulty for them.
Of course they have challenges. They get older and their body doesnt work the same. They have injuries they have to play around. For technuiqe their brains are hardwired and their times is spent on tone and legato, such things which create perfect emotion.
To be a good player of any instrument you have to really want to pretty badly... You will know it when every time you play it gives your heart that little tickle..
Commitment

Scales with a metronome?
Got it.
Ana ignored my email to her secretary about which guitar is best for a guitar player who does not perform on stage. She is sweet but not too concerned about her fans.
I know Ana. You misjudge her. I suspect her manager has to avoid overwhelming her with questions, she gets so many.
@@williamash974 :
I understand. She has a big fan base.
Who cares about all the logistics. Just answer the one question we're all here for...
