So sad, I started playing guitar in 2020, year when Julian died, I wish could meet this wonderful musician

El sentimiento que transmite en cada nota Julian Bream me fascina. Un guitarrista sublime.Una de las mejores, si no la mejor interpretación sin entrar en comparaciones, que siempre son odiosas. Que pena que nos dejará recientemente. Descanse en paz MAESTRO.

Il migliore.. per sempre...

The first time I heard this concert was in 1974. Bream was the soloist (he was quite young at the time) and the orchestra, as far as I can remember, was the Symphonic of Chicago under Fritz Reiner. I was really thrilled. It was the first time I heard about the concert and Julian Bream. Until today I prefer his interpretation to that of any other guitar player, including John Williams (a great master of the guitar, no doubts about that.)

I think, in my humble way of understanding that this is the best interpretation for its quintessential technique, rhythm, aroma, interpretative strength and harmony.

Saw Julian Bream in Glasgow, dude pulled out a Lute and transported me back 500 years .

This entire DVD has inspired me so deeply for the past 2 or 3 years. I've seen clips from various people posting them and I finally bought the thing a few months ago. This part is my absolute favourite and I think bream does a really good job as an orchestral performer. I heard a saying once that the artist must submit his/her ego to the better cause of the band[orchestra] and Bream does that so well without sacrificing his own stamp of originality.

Julian Bream es el mejor intérprete de este monumento musical...

Thanks for posting. I love Julian Bream's interpretation of Rodrigo. I think it has a very natural and authentic Spansh feel.

that is the most individual way I have ever heard that climactic rasgueado part played. (8:00) There is so much of Bream's character in that, it's truly stunning.

Love is the bliss I feel when the wonder and beauty of this piece is fully experienced in the heart.

Magic!!! Close to prefection....I love Miles's version of this too.....wonderful!!

Fabulous, simply fabulous. Yes, there are many who are in contention -Andres Segovia, John Williams, and Angel Romero come to mind. Julian's passion has always grabbed me. .....and may I add, "Them that play appreciate - them that don't criticize - if only to get their name in print." ~Sailor

R I P Maestro❤️

Well said. Stunning is the word. Bream turns his guitar into a harp for some passages in the climax. You have to see him do it to believe it is his guitar. Well, this piece is said to have been Segovia's favorite, so it's not surprising to find Bream pouring his soul into it also.

Danke ✌️ Sie gehören zu den besten der besten 👍🏻 Danke Ruhe in Frieden

Holy crap, I'm actually crying. BRAVO

Tác phẩm và nghệ sĩ guitar hay nhất của thế kỉ 20.

Perfect ...💔

This is indescribable! Divine!

Love JB and would love to hear Sean Shibe play this as well!!!! :) :) :)

Que decir , solo escuchar esta maravilla.

The best ❤

Why did you cut the end off? What in the world possesses you to put this fine work up on Tube ...and then cut off the end?

One of the best performance out the for that piece. the movie is called "Guitarra!" and is a journey of the guitar history via Spain

Julian Bream un genio de verdad che!!!!!

五十数年前に聴いたジュリアン=ブリームのアランフェス協奏曲は当時最高の録音だった。Liveは初めて聴くが、その昔の響きも残っていて懐かしい。

Ha van valakinek szíve csak azt érinti meg ez a muzsika!!!!!!

I think it's played a little fast, at least at the beginning where it seems to rush a bit. A slightly slower, more lilting tempo seems to suit it so much more. I love Julian Bream big time, but I really love the tempo of Paco De Lucia or Pepe Romero's version. All wonderful really, just my personal feeling.

thanks a lot

How is Rodrigo not up their with Mozart. This is superb.

superb

Oh-what happened to the ending? Anyway, the i s a sublime art work performed by a sublime musician. It always moves me so deeply.

I think Julian Bream played the climax triple notes "correctly" at 1:49 . I believe the triplet are the same timing of each 1/6 notes. A different guitarist Wictoria exaggerated the first note and slurred played the triplet as 1/4 note followed by 2 1/8 notes. She did that wrong multiple times in multiple performances. The climax triple notes is like Beethoven's destiny symphony's 4 notes knocking on the door. Rodrigo fine tuned the melody of Aranjuez, and it has been said that the more you want to exaggerate the melody, the weaker it gets. Julian Bream played it easy and the melody comes out strong and hard on me.

woof that rasgueado at the end...

exactly!

What about part 3 of the concert? I was used to see it here ( just like part 1, and part 2). 📍Does anybody knows why it’s not here anymore?

Per me la più bella

Hermosa interpretaciçon. Como siempre el maestro Bream impecable, aunque hubiera preferido un tempi algo más lento.

Say what? Why on God's good Earth was the ending cut off?

Beautiful but we must listen to Paco De Lucia on this piece is unequalled ... and the production is superb.

When can John Williams and John Williams play this together.... I want to see that live...

Timing perfect more fluid than John Williams more feel for the piece i feel light and shade is better and feel of origin is there.

This is bugging me could some one tell me if this piece of music has been used in movies or does it sound like some thing else that has been used ????

Where was the atmospheric ending. I feel like someone stole my last Rollo

Pero, el equipo técnico que grabó esta parte no dejó terminar la obra, la dejó inconclusa. Muy bien Bream, pero el equipo de grabación se equivocó.

En mi opinión de estar escuchando con detenimiento un 80% Segovia, Bream y Williams y después todos los demás, puedo decir que Bream es el mejor intérprete de la guitarra clásica del Siglo XX. (Claro las bases interpretativas están con el gran Segovia.) Sin embargo, esta versión del Concierto de Aranjuez no le da el toque español correcto. Él es un intérprete perfecto de la música española, pero a este Concierto le faltó ese toque. Más bien parece como si estuviera tocando Britten, Walton o algo más contemporáneo. La interpretación de Williams es superior. (Lástima que Segovia se rehusara a tocarlo :( ) La de Pepe Romero es genial. Creo es la mejor versión en youtube. La de Paco de Lucía le da un toque más flamenco, muy diferente y original. Sin embargo, aún así me quedo con la de Williams. Es mi sentir.

Who the hell is John Duarte? And where is he from? How come the guy had the bottle to speak evil of a man like Yepes?

Why did they have to ruin the only video recording of Bream playing the "Concierto" with footage of random sheep and Spanish rural backwater instead of scoping in on him and his guitar? What a wasted opportunity this documentary was in that regard!

Slightly faster than John Williams :D

Rodrigo obviously influenced Morricone!

Yepes version is more refined

I LOVE Julian Bream but in all honesty, I've heard him play this piece MUCH better... The climax at 8:15 definitely was not great...

...what on earth are you talking about?!?

comparing Yepes to Bream is like comparing chalk to cheese! I have tried to appreciate Yepes's work but i find it bordering on the amateurish. Also to suggest that Bream is part of "The Segovia Circle" what is this? Is it some dark guitar conspiracy? Bream really had very little to do with Segovia. The fact is that Yepes has fallen out of favor because he simply lacks the virtuosity needed to capture the hearts of a more educated and discerning classical listenership.

Guitar sounds out of tune.

I think his rasgueado technique is not that good

Terrible idea to show the nature when the Maestro is at work!!!

Julian Bream un genio de verdad che!!!!!
