Technically the video itself is wild and unamiable to the perception of the listener who would like to enjoy the performance. Her other videos are much higher class. The interview is valuable and I believe coming truly from her heart. Stay true Xue-fei and enjoy many happy years of perfoming beautiful music!

Sep 5, 2008 - segovia is the best.. best tone!! best rhytam speed.. and best couple reason that i dont know jet.. its always that way!

zeev29 Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - well... i don't like segovia's version that much. but everyone has a different opinion

goorance Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - its not a matter someones opinion.. its a matter of knowledge..segovia is the master.. whole spain knows that..

zeev29 Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - he's the master for a lot of reasons. he helped a lot in guitar's history.. that doesn't mean everyone has to like his interpretations best. I like williams' better. we are all different that's why no one can say his the best guitar player. everyone feels the music in a different way

goorance Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - this comp. 1st.] its easyer to play faster.. 2] william has a guitar that segovia couldnt dream of.. 3] william has no near tehnick that segovia has, that could tell you every one who has more exp. explorating guitar, william just play nice couse he practice so meny times.. SEgovia has the deepest and the loudest tone.. which william hasnot... for exempl in asturias can you hear his [h] string clear?

goorance Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - and one more thing if you like fast music.. try listen to paco de lucia... hi is decidedly nuber one guitarist in the world inculuding al di meola, and john mclaughin... for exemple paco's like-classical song Panaderos Flamencos.. i will write no more on this subject

zeev29 Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - por tus comentarios sólo puedo deducir que eres español (quiero pensar) y defiendes a los tuyos. que no tiene nada de malo pero no significa que tengas razón. si algo no se le puede criticar a williams es su tecnica. pero bueno... dejemos el tema ahi. que estés bien

goorance Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - yes ..yes i understood evreything.. i dont speack spanish... when i thought about thing what you want.. simply dont care any more for pacients from youTube.. i know i have correctly opinion

luizcadu Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - bash me if you will, but I like these MTV orientated videos for instrumental and classical music. I think it's an intelligent and honest way for these artists to communicate with the mainstream audience.

zeev29 Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - opinion... that's the key word

Thymonico Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - He has already exlpained in an interview that he's trying to distance the [H]-string because that's not where the main theme lies.. He's emphasizing the bass rather than the lighter notes to keep people un-confused with where the main theme lies! ;)Altough, i think that he ought to play the [h] louder.. ;P

Artistwolf1993 Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - yeah i think that's right

1973wildcatman Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - John williams makes me want to practice harder this virtuoso makes me want to burn my guitars and take up golf!!!!!!

ProjectAurora Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - Please do not argue that the piano version is better or that the guitar version is better. Each has its own beauty to offer, and any argument related to this is both ignorant and not constructive.

erikdarkmaster Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - Just perfect ! Good work ! =)

evilsizer18 Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - This is good. I'm learning guitar and i have 2 years playing the guitar. I have studied 7 months at a museum and my teacher is helping me to play it And this piece is wonderful. Even more if you practice it. 5/5

BobMcBobbenheimer Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - horrible!! add your OWN timing to classical songs!! dont rish through it and slam those chords. your have fast fingers but remember not every line in the fucking song has to be played as a sixteenth note!! andres segovia's is 10 times better

c4tvv6qs Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - Just to add to what the uploader of this vidz...Isaac Albeniz wrote Asturias with classical guitar in mind. Asturias is a difficult pc for guitar and even more in piano.

classicalle Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - Lol at 2:10 she's like I could, but I won't.

noeliabravo Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - vaya... que rapida.... es uno de mis temas favoritos en clasico, y aunque se que no suena igual que isaac albeniz, le doy merito por tener limpieza y rapides.

JaisBane Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - As much, as I love Segovia's performance of Asturias (Leyenda), Ms. Yang's version is much closer to the original tempo. Looking at the sheet music I have in front of me it's marked at 120bpm and uses 16th notes almost exclusively until the music changes themes and tempo. Just because Ms. Yang chose to play a different interpretation of the piece does not make it any worse in comparison to Segovia.
