i thought this was romance de los pinos??

[tmjcbs]

@guitario85 : indeed it is. But it is also known as Montemayor (Contemplacion) in the Castles Of Spain suite.

Wow! A lot of scummy posts on here. Don't sully Segovia. He was the greatest guitar player of the 20th century, not least of all because it was his talent and absolute mastery that finally earned respect for instrument among the rest of the world in music. Beautiful piece.

Your reply to vinnothelizard is disgusting on so many different levels. And if you think that your ability to use obscenities impresses people then your very much mistaken.

Also, whatever you would like to say about Segovia has no value or signifcance after the foul and uncalled for rambling that preceeded it.

Enjoy the music.

magic!

We must give credit where credit is due. Without Segovia's contributions in the 20th century the classical guitar would be in a very sorry state indeed. Thank you for all your post.

@philomelodia a mockingbird could do that. I give him credit, it's the best-sounding instrument in A440, esp. if you want to play Moreno-Torroba's wonderful guitar concerto. But the problem starts when you feel you got to classify all plucked instruments (that look something like what Segovia played) a guitar.

@MikeyIV  fame don't enter into it.

[MikeyIV]

@nomusician He's the most famous classical guitarist of all time and you are a troll on youtube. Ah the stupidity I see on this site...

so well written.. so well played. this is so beautiful.

[joelakastud123]

people say jimmi hendrix with his sloppy blues rock solos is the best because of what he contributed but he gave nothing to the guitar like the master andres segovia did

[jimrankenberg]

There are so may great guitarist, but I don't think anyone else ever created such a magic sound from a guitar.

@vinnothelizard btw i love asians. but i think there won't be many who are great musicians. great technique sure (not so great). they can hit the notes. but most Asian players dont go too much farther than just hittin the notes. technique is not simply hitting notes. but the efficiency in bringing to life your musical thoughts. thats what it really is. this is what seperates a little chinese girl who plays the notes perfect from segovia. a man who deeply studied the music and brings life to it.

@vinnothelizard well i dont want to say to much of myself but i work along side players like gabriel bianco and judicael perroy. i have to say this is completely false. in every country of the world theres a little girl who can play Paganini perfect. the thing that sets Segovia aside is not technique. but deep deep understanding of music and having it played in the deepest forms of authenticity. you must use your brain and heart to understand segovia not your eyes gazing upon technique.
