Isn’t this the true magic that lies in KZfaq? I’m sitting in my lounge on a wet Sunday evening in troubled and troubling times. And here this staggeringly talented young person freely gives a world-class performance of her beautiful art. Sharing both her craft and her love, blessing the luthier with her expression of his work, blessing the composer with her arrangement, blessing us with her precious gift, asking nothing in return for the tens of thousands of hours practising and pain and faith that carpeted the long path bringing her here. Bless her. Bless her from the bottom of my heart.

Such an outstanding musician. Music is in every fiber, corpuscle and cell in your body, Stephanie. Your interpretations are magical-seriously. And you don't let your techical skills get in the way of musical interpretation. Amazing! As someone who spent 2 1/2 years studying in Spain with José Tomás, I was surrounded by an endless stream of guitarists from around the world, including David Russell. You're at the top of musical expression.
@beasheerhan44824 жыл бұрын
No, Dear Tomas, if Miss Stefanie is 'an outstanding' musician', this is no evidence of it. Here she rushes through it like a dry scale exercise. She has no understanding of the inner qualities of this pierce, whatsoever, and, like so many other guitarists, cannot penetrate Giuliani's style.

@Ken Brown I haven't. But guitarist, Cornel Imry, who I met in Alicante and was one of my roommates, did write an excellent piece about Tomas after the latter's death.

@beasheerhan44824 жыл бұрын
@@higherresolution4490 Thank you for your kindness, Dear Tomas. Actually I have seen Miss Stefanie give some fine performances with other repertoire. It often is that guitarists find Giuliani bedeviling to understand, because, for reasons that I have never understood, guitarists do not ordinarily hearken to the Mozartian 'Bel Canto' style. It may never be her cup of tea, for every musician has some things they do really well and other things not. Alles beste!

@@CrimsenScarr Not so much. When use of a gender specific pronoun is eschewed (and there are no rules that prohibit it), such as in this instance, 'their' can, and is, used for both singular and plural application in informal usage. Although some editors cling to the traditional usage of 'their' for strictly plural usage for more formal writing, it is quickly becoming a thing of the past.

So, here Stephanie shows both a sort of elfin wit in the allegrettos & prestos, yet also an almost dreamy quality in adagio/lento variations - neither approach do I remember in anyone else's playing of this famous piece. She is a very original artist, without forced novelty. Fortunate for us that she seems to have arranged a pretty decent audio recording setup for her around-the-house or around-the-hotel room "concert hall. " Oh, yes - a couple of miniscule not-quite-perfect touches; nice that she has a real pro performer's instinct to blow right past them. Impressive in all respects.
