This is from Pery Ribeiro e seu mundo de canções Românticas Album recorded at Odeon Studios in Rio Branco Avenue Rio de Janeiro in 1962. A Brazillian Masterpiece.
Wow Stu .. thats so good ..Thanks .. im getting on these days and studied with Prof Adele Kramer a friend of Ida .. cheers its so good the hear these great Guitarists .. have a cool week my friend .. :)
no i would like to get it written down.Chris Dumigan did a few other arrangements of mine a while back and i may get his to transcribe this. I can write my stuff down but i am very slow! Anyway glad you like it.I tried to remain very faithful to what Piazzolla actually wrote in the original film version.cheers
Yes i don't know whether Dyens knew of Darcy but he adored Brazilian guitar.I do know Fabio Zanon thinks very highly of Villa Verde .Theres a cassette on YT of a live recording.
i like to play barrios , particularly his tremelo pieces,i also like to play segovias pieces , the b minor study is a joy.Completely different styles of composition.Completely different artists,ive heard people say segovia would not have barrios played in his masterclasses.I ve also read after barrios died ,segovia said , Barrios was a friend , and a genius, but that he tried to ruin himself, and that he left behind a great wealth of beutiful music. People sometimes sound as though segovia some how personally stopped barrios from being as succesful as him. Wat ever personally there was between the two,well never know for sure , i like to think in guitar heavan they are together , with tarrega , sor and bream,making a magical sound ., what music that must be . I d just like to say , thanks to all of them.....
Tal vez sea un mito, posiblemente ello no ocurrió, pero se ha escuchado que, al parecer, cuando se encontraron Andrés Segovia y Mangoré, aquel le dijo a Mangoré que tocara primero para escucharlo. Y luego de oír sus interpretaciones, tal vez quedó tan impresionado que manifestó que él no tocaría, y no tocó la guitarra. Se dio cuenta de la gran maestría de "Nitsuga", mientras que él, como lo manifestó, solo interpretaba la guitarra clásica. Tal vez se negó, en señal de admiración y admitiendo la grandeza de Barrios.
Una película impactante, triste, conmovedora, sobre la vida de un genio de la guitarra. Llega a lo más profundo del sentimiento, vuelve girones el alma. Parece que no considerara la grandeza de Mangoré, pero lo cierto parece ser que no todos los grandes músicos -a pesar de su gran arte- tienen un gran éxito económico. Quién sabe si realmente su vida fue como se describe, inundada de una melancolía, de un esfuerzo, de dificultad. La película, a mi manera de ver, tiene arte, conmueve el corazón; pero creo que habría debido destacar en más o mayor forma las composiciones del gran Agustín Barrios, traer a la escucha más fragmentos de otras piezas del gran maestro. Tal vez no lo haga por suponer que somos conocedores de su obra, y sí, muchos lo somos, pero no tanto quienes están más alejados de ese bello instrumento musical como lo es la guitarra, y de sus grandes intérpretes. Estados Unidos se privó de escuchar en persona al gran compositor y ejecutor de la guitarra, paraguayo.
I was so fortunate that my guitar teacher introduced me to Don Perez Freire and Maxixe as soon as he felt I was capable of learning it. The 3 B’s of the guitar: Bach, Barrios, and Brouewer!
Andres Segovia was a prime example of an orthodox fascist cunt. Zero creativity. Imagine Beethoven had only played Haydn. Utterly insignificant! Agustín Barrios was a true artist!
Huge thanks for uploading this fascinating early video of John! 07:28 See!...maestro John CAN play with a plectrum. Rock on John! (then again, we do see him playing a Les Paul in Sky)
