Norwegian guitarist Berit Hagen is truly my Commander-in-Chief! She is an incredible virtuosa electric metal-classical guitarist! I am so amazed and humbled by her incredible playing ability.

I like the atmosphere of the 50s / 60s movies in this video. Something between Hitchcock and the first James Bond films. Craig could be a James Bond on a guitar and Berit looks great in his dress. She plays better than many "untouchable" players out there. Many people would not understand how difficult it is to play such an advanced tune on a clean style guitar sound. I can watch this video many times without getting bored. Congratulations for the fine good job.

This is amazing, they look so relaxed and matter of fact-ish while playing one of the hardest pieces out there. Love Paganini.

I just don't understand why people dislike this piece of gold

I'm just amazed at how perfectly in synch they are, something very difficult for just 2 solo performers playing together.

I love how they look at each other and play of one another.

As the manager for "The Commander In Chief" I have quietly observed the lovers and haters comment on this video for 5 years, despite the fact that I am the one making her videos. I will now set the record straight about certain "issues" that I am tired of seeing popping up, in comments by self proclaimed "experts" and others. Btw, my musical background is from classical music and I have been her manager from day 1. I was there for every minute of the recording sessions, the rehearsals and the long hours studying the classical pieces. I have documented pretty much everything she has ever done, musically.

This is one of the best version i ever heard. I absolutely love how you alternate, and compliment each other with bass, high notes, shell chords or artificial harmonics. Very original interpretation of the finale. The artistic direction of this video is flawless. Video quality and shots angles are on point. Even how you look at each others, which match the musical passion.

I can't count how many times I've re-watched this video in the past week, but yes, in all regards, the playfulness, cleverness, and heart is outstanding, to say the least.

Doing that on a classic guitar is one thing (a very very difficult thing). Doing it on an ELECTRIC guitar is nothing short of insane. I wouldn't have believed this if I hadn't seen it. WOW!!!

As a guitarist of 38 years, it is extremely difficult to play electric without effects as she does and do it with such perfection! No area for mistakes, and I won't bother acknowledging how damn hot this girl is!!!!!!! WOW! Both are incredible!

This was Not a trivial task by any means. What this was was an amazing meeting of two different schools of thought, instruments and disciplines. Fantastic performance!!
