@Derek Very nice. I was not that familiar with Bartolomé Calatayud's music but have really enjoyed the pieces that you have shared with us. Thanks.

@Blaise Laflamme That was beautiful. Loved the ornaments. Interesting to compare it to Carlevaro's version. Also, could definitely hear some Carlevaro color in your right hand.

@Blaise Laflamme Thanks. The edition that I am using was published by Tecla Editions out of London and edited by Miguel Alcazar. It was published in 1982

@Steve Pederson Thanks and good catch. Ponce uses that D# in many of the variations and I agree it is unexpected and creates some good tension.

@Martin That second movement of the Sonatina is so beautiful and agree that it is one of Torroba's finest.
