Yamashita plays Capriccio Diabolico

I learned a lot watching this video. Incredible playing. Watch amazing arpeggios starting at 7:38. Holds his guitar very precariously!

Moderator edit: Sorry cool09, but you can't post copyrighted music here. A composer must have been dead for over 70 years for his music to become public domain. Tedesco died in 1968. Members may search YouTube for "Kazuhito Yamashita plays Capriccio Diabolico"

It's quite an amazing performance. If one chooses to play this piece, then throw caution to the wind. Too many players tiptoe through the last few minutes.

Of course the "Where's the music" comments ought to commence in 5...4...3...2..1...

I think he has a lot of feeling in this performance. This piece suits him well because it is very intense. I think the speed in areas is not overkill but fits nicely.
