This classic by Antonio Lauro was more difficult than I expected due to some of the quick chord changes required. Alirio Diaz plays this piece at lightening speed, so once I have many more hours of practice on this, will I try to increase the tempo closer to the indicated "Allegro ritmico".

  Barney so so beautiful. I like this tempo and the rhythm flowing like you do. Also the lyrical melodic part is exquisite. Great performance, Barney.

  joosje Thanks so much Joosje! I think you may be right about the slower than indicated tempo, as we can certainly hear the melodic lines more easily. I appreciate your comment about that and your kind words!

This is spooky - I've just noticed the background photo to the watch party live event - either Martin has taken his version from a video that I posted on one of the recording forums or we have managed to find the same photo on the Web!

The video was one that Gokce and I made last year. Not sure if the tune is South American or Spanish - it's from a collection of Spanish and South American pieces arranged for two guitars by Len Williams (father of John!). Here it is
