I just saw this today.  It's a lot of fun, and they're really good. :)

He was not of an age, but for all time.

That is strange; that piece already has solo guitar arrangement. Nevertheless, much respect for the guy on top. It's a weird position.

hi, there!
watching that, i remember another amazing video of guitar.


not only five players in one guitar, five top guitarists: manuel barrueco, david russell, david tanembaum, sergio assad and odair assad. the piece is [ca. 2:40], for those unfamiliar with guitar repertory, villa-lobos' etude n. 1 (with some notes added...).

best!

ps: 500th post.  :P
