@Jack Stewart Thanks. Yes, it does have some spunk and could be played faster for the full effect.

@Steve Pederson Thanks. Funny you say that about the "Entertainer." I am working on another early Carlevaro piece that reminds me of Scott Joplin. Hope to post next week.

@Steve Pederson Nice job with these two dances. Really liked both pieces but tend towards the Italian Dance. Like your use of dynamics and great tone!

Here is an early composition by Abel Carlevaro, most likely written in the early 1960s. It is based on the rhythm of the milonga dance, famous in the Rio de la Plata region and is called Milongueandoโฆ

@Eric Phillips I always enjoy your Sor. I also very much like and impressed that you are so focused and dedicated to Sor. I also find it rewarding to specialize on a particular composer.

Re: When is your favorite time of day to Practice?
For me, I like to practice in the morning hours. I generally start around 8:30 am and continue until 1 pm, breaking this time up into 30-minute sets with 15 to 20 minutes rests between sets.โฆ
