Did you ever ask yourself why the work Asturias is also named Leyenda (Legend) and not a fairy tale?
In a legend there are heroes and sacrifices, mourning of the dead by the living, struggle for the ultimate and crushes of opposition. The chords in Asturias are crushes of the ultimateand the rasgueos can bring this forward. If of course somebody does not take any of this history into his investigations he can be happy with a "fairy tale" interpretation of the work.Stay well, cheers, Yorgos
Albeniz wrote this work in the compass and the Phrygian (ancient Dorian) mode of Media Granadina meaning that he based it on the traits of the popular flamenco music with the exception that a piano cannot produce a rasgueado where a guitar can. There is a lot of history in this work my friend which is greater than the people that can describe it. Stay well, cheers, Yorgos
OOHH MAESTRO!! K GRAN VERSION..Estoy conmovido de la poderosa interpretacion de Asturias..Usted ah sabido sacar el sonido mas árabe de Isac Albeniz y un gran y bonito estilo personal..Sinceramente GENIAL. Estoy muy agradecido por su invitación..Le deso todo lo mejor, GRACIAS
I like your version! I detune to D standard then play it in G with the tremelo on the high D, I prefer to play music in the key that the composer chose since he could have written it it any key. You are very pioneering.
Thanks my friend, it is an important issue the chosen key and scale chosen by the composer-an issue of both acoustic and musical influences as exploited by many researchers, one of the pioneers on the subject being Helmholtz with his wonderful work "The sensations of tone", stay well and active, Yorgos
I personally love flamenco music. And Asturias is one of my favorite songs, coming from the Segovia´s transcription. The performance in this video has too much feeling and virtuosism. But i think it´s just another composition; not Asturias, and not so wonderful. Congratulations to the composer.

cual es el arreglo exactamente, meter unos rasgueos cuando al tio le da la gana??..En mi opinion, destroza la maravillosa obra del maestro albeniz

Μέχρι το 1:37 αναρωτιόμουν γιατί το παίζατε τόσο αργά. Μετά κατάλαβα τον λόγο..... Συγχαρητήρια και συνεχίστε!!!!!!!
Θα ήταν εύκολο να ανεβάζετε και μαθήματα?? Θα είχαν μεγάλη απήχηση πάντως.
