Lennon-McCartney Because Göran Söllscher guitar

John Lennon wrote this beautiful song
after having heard his wife Yoko Ono playing the Adagio from Beethovens Moonlight Sonata.
It was released in September 1969 on The Beatles album Abbey Road.
My guitar was made by Per Hallgren

Your first Beatles album was a big catalyst for me in regards to classical guitar playing. Your arrangements are so delicate, clever and neat. Thanks for sharing them again.

So many cool harmonics

[@emiliojosegraobenedi450]

Absolutely marvelous!!

Una obra maestra de Lennon y con la interpretación del maestro Göran Söllscher le da un toque de elegancia y nostalgia como un lamento del alma tan bello que te quedas sin aliento.

[@goransollscher1730]

Muchas gracias🙏

[@yanezvictor]

In the 60's I always tried to emulate "Because" with my guitar. I accomplished quite a bit before I learned to read music. Your performance is simple and complex at the same time. Great arrangement. Thank you!

[@goransollscher1730]

thanks a lot 🎶

[@outtosea1903]

Jag brukar tänka att ingen musik kan vara så tidlös som J.S. Bachs musik, att den på något sätt är essensen av det goda som en gång fanns, och finns, i universum. Musik som går raka vägen till hjärtat. Här, med denna Beatles låt, fick jag samma känsla. Så oerhört fint! Detta gjorde min dag, och det blev lätt att gå till jobbet. Stort Tack Göran för alla underbara videos! ❤️🎶 🙏

[@goransollscher1730]

Tusen tack - vad glad jag blir ! 🙏

[@normanmiller]

Exquisite....... absolutely beautiful.

[@goransollscher1730]

Thanks a lot 🎵

[@samheise8735]

This song requires a lot of accuracy among the different tracks that the Beatles recorded. I was curious when I clicked on the video, and as always I walked away with my jaw dropped. You truly have an amazing styling technique and everything you do is just fantastic. Thanks so much for sharing your incredible talent!

[@goransollscher1730]

Thanks a lot 🎵

Les arrangements magnifiques des Beatles que vous nous proposez permettent d'une part d'ouvrir le monde de la guitare classique à de nouveaux horizons et de vous voir les jouer si facilement et avec autant d'aisance est une expérience inoubliable! La retenue et l'émotion tangible, la sonorité ... on croirait que ce morceau fut créé pour la guitare classique!
De underbara Beatles-arrangemangen som du erbjuder oss öppnar den klassiska gitarrens värld för nya horisonter och att se dig spela dem så lätt och med sådan lätthet är en oförglömlig upplevelse! Den återhållsamhet och den påtagliga känslan, ljudet ... man skulle kunna tro att det här stycket är skapat för klassisk gitarr!

[@pbasswil]

Never would've imagined this version of the song! It makes me realize what a great composition it was - when the Beatles' version puts all your focus on their amazing vocals. Good on ya.

[@goransollscher1730]

thanks a lot 🙏

[@Per-Olovkindgren]

Wow! That was simply beautiful!! Very moving and mesmerizing! What a beautiful and brillant arrangement you made. Congratulations! Few notes but exactly the ones needed! That's amazing!
Tack Göran, det var en toppen fin upplevelse.

[@goransollscher1730]

Thanks 🎵

[@EddieReischl]

This is very beautifully played, and a beautiful arrangement. Listening, you can really get a better feel for how this song is derived from "Moonlight Sonata", the pacing and intimacy of it. It was probably a good thing for Lennon's fingers and voice that Yoko Ono wasn't playing the Presto Agitato part. Much admiration from Wisconsin, USA.

[@goransollscher1730]

Thanks a lot 🎶 yes,she definitely played the right mouvement 😊

Lovely, moving performance.

[@tobiasnilsson8934]

Hi Göran!
Wonderful to be able to sink into the calm feeling you create. Presage a melancholy. Appreciates the variation in the performance. A telling but beatiful simplicity. Your tecknique and "gentle hand" are inspiring. Now more words than just sublime is needed.
Thank you very much for sharing your skills of music! Very much appreciated!
Take care!

[@nelsonsoucasaux2751]

One thousand congratulations, my friend, you are truly great, and your arrangements are very, very special and innovative. And implying an intricate re-harmonization work ! From another Beatles' fan who also came from the 60's and who composes and plays only instrumental solo electric guitar pieces, although not professionally ( I'm a medical doctor... ). But who even so recently released 2 authoral CDs, at the age of 70-71... Best regards from Rio de Janeiro, South America.

[@PalmaMultimedia]

The more I listen to your channel the more overwhelmed I am, soul soothingly superb,

[@LLtigers]

Another lovely piece, very tasteful. Subscribed, thank you.

[@basedfarmer]

[@nilskandler4384]

That's brilliant, your flageoletts are awesome.

[@Tubbeeer]

Hey Göran, a very beautiful piece - masterfully transcribed and performed, which was to be expected... Dear Göran, I've been listening to "your" Beatles songs for years. And now - it#s finally also visible on TH-cam = easier to learn :-). Mans, Mans thanks for That!
Is it maybe even possible to get the sheet music from it? That would make me very happy and make the work on the piece easier.
Thank you again for your beautiful contributions.
