LISTEN TO THIS VIDEO I think for a *13 YEAR OLD* (or even an older player) this young man is really good! Bach probably wouldn't like it, but he's dead so he'll never know the difference.

Before I even watch this video, I will give my answer. I used to play music with a guy who infused Mozart "riffs" into metal style music. Absolutely the best musician I have ever had the opportunity to play with.

Yaa he is a budding talent. i know playing guitar too.He has the knowledge of strings and tunes.But his raw talent need to be polished a bit.He can be the next generation rock star iam sure if he sticks to it.

holy crap that kid is talented! i thought it was great. really great. thats amazing, i don't care how old he is. wow!

he is great i want the song he has like to actually have it on my itunes its cool i love it

The kid in the video is Jeong-Hyun Lim, and the video you posted is like the most-viewed video on youtube.com this year. And the song he's playing is not Bach, it's Pachelbel's "Canon". Here's the WP page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeong-Hyun_Lim It's a wicked song and I only wish I could play like that.

Yes. An awesome interpretation! 1) "Pachelbel's Canon also known as Canon in D major, or more formally, Canon and Gigue in D major for three Violins and Basso Continuo (Kanon und Gigue in D-Dur für drei Violinen und Basso Continuo) is the most famous piece of music by Johann Pachelbel. It was written in or around 1680, during the Baroque period, as a piece of chamber music for three violins and basso continuo, but has since been arranged for a wide variety of ensembles." "One of the all-time top ten most watched videos on YouTube is guitar, which has been viewed over 29 million times. Posted online in December 2005, it consists of a rock music version of Pachelbel's Canon performed on electric guitar by a young man wearing a baseball cap. Since the guitarist's face cannot be seen and he is named only as funtwo in the video, there was speculation about his identity during the first half of 2006. The guitarist has since been named as Jeong-Hyun Lim, a 23-year old from South Korea who had taught himself to play. The arrangement used in the video was written by the Taiwanese guitarist JerryC and is called "Canon Rock". Jeong-Hyun Lim's version of the song has received widespread media coverage. The popularity of this video has in itself spawned hundreds of imitators which eventually led to the Ultimate Canon Rock video being made featuring a compilation of all the best interpretations."

Yes, I like many different types of music. ... not Bach ... Yes, I think he is very talented, for any age. I think he has a fine music career ahead of him.

Wow, yes, I think he is very talented.

I have been a hard rock bassist and keyboarder since 1964. The Who, Jimi, Led Zep, Jethro Tull, etc. I am just as motivated by Mozart, Chopin, Beethoven, Grieg, Rachmananoff, and Handel. These guys WERE the rockers of their day. A band called Crack the Sky did several classics as rock arrangements. Listen to Wellington's Victory, or the album Deep Purple with the Royal Philharmonic at Royal Albert Hall. Jon Lord played keys for Deep Purple and wrote a symphony of a battle between the four piece rock band and the mighty RPO. This kid is talented. I just hope he learns how to handle success.

Wow, really cool. Ive heard some really good classic-to-rock adaptations and this guy is right up there with the best of em

It's not Bach, but Pachelbel. I think he is quite talented.

Jeez, by the time this dude's 18 is his going to be smoking hot!. I've been playing for 16 years and that's pretty good for a 13yo. Made my day. Now I've just downloaded the tab and backing track, I wanna learn it too!.
