[berndgast]

Hi, everybody!

My name is Bernd Gast and I'm a guitar player from Germany.

I want to introduce myself here in the musicians lounge with my current video:

The Moonlight Sonata for Guitar - newly arranged and played by myself.

Here you can watch it:

What do you think?

Best Regards from Cologne/Germany

Bernd - This is one of my favorite classical pieces ever. And I love your guitar arrangement of it! Beautiful! So well played with the emotion that the piece deserves.

Thank you so much for sharing this.

Hi Linda!

Thx for your comment.

Where do you come from? Which instrument(s) do you play?

VEry powerfull arrangment. I play the piece on piano myself, so I kinda know it. Although it seems a easy song it's pretty hard to interpret it well. You do it very well. I would say try not to obscure the 3/4 rhythm with the melody. A little bit of rubato is good, but it has to heard in the accompagnement aswell. I mean you shouldn't let the last note of those broken chords ring out like the melody. If you want to play rubato you have to spread the rubato over all three notes of the broken chord. Hope it makes sence.

Besides this the interpretation is very strong. It's even more difficult on quitar, so all the props to you! Great work!

Hi

Great. As Linda mentioned, this too is one of my favorite classical pieces. A good adaptation of the first movement. No real mistakes, although I thought there could have been more use of dynamic what you did was clean and engaging. A steady performance too. Good job Bernd.

Any plans to adapt the second movement?

Would you mind if I added this to the Songstuff YouTube channel?

Cheers
