Toti Alvarez - Transcription of Antonio Molina's "Hating Gabi"

[71ilocano]

Our English teacher who was also a musician taught this song to the high school graduates in '87 in Ballesteros, Cagayan, Philippines. It was a very nice rendition...the graduate choir did a fantastic job in which my sister was an alto. I wish now that I had the video of it. Hope I can find it someday, if God permits. The pianist here did a very fantastic job, BRAVO!!!

There are no lyrics to this work. It is originally for violin. This was transcribed to make it more pianistic from the simple piano version.

I love your improvisation! I have heard and played this a million times! The interpretation is superb! And by the way, I am Monserrat Molina-Bejar, the youngest daughter of Antonio J. Molina. Thank you for posting it in Youtube.

Great job!

Love your improvisation. Added a lot of testure without taking it too far away from it's native style.

I also play it just as it's written and would love to learn to play your version.

Is it possible to get a copy of your improvised version?

Thanks

Well done young man. Keep playing. I like the arpeggios. This song used to lull me to sleep when I was 4. Whenever my eldest sister played this on the piano, I always fell asleep listening to it. Thank you for posting this video clip.
