EL NEGRITO - Antonio Lauro

Antonio Lauro was born in 1917 and died in 1986 and like Agustin Barrios Mangore, his music was written for the classical guitar. I'm just starting to really get into the 20th century composers. It's the era that is my weakest in my guitar repertoire thus, I figure I should embrace it. This particular piece was written for Lauro's youngest son Luis Augusto. I had so much trouble with this particular one because of the tempo associated with it. I've seen a lot of interepretations of this on here and I'm amazed at the ease of how many individuals perform it. I can't tell you how many times I tried to record this one. At any rate, here it is in it's raw since I don't know how to edit video without altering the file name =( .

I like this tune. Nicely played. 5* I must learn this someday .

It's been awhile since I used one, but is that a "flanger" sound effect?

Hi Van! Thanks so much for still listening to me. Yeah I put a little flanger in it. Just experimenting a little...lol. I would love to listen to your interpretation Van. You know who has a really awesome rendition is Julie. Her playing is so beautiful as you know. I kind of picked this piece because I saw her play it and it was amazing. You should really listen to her play this. You'll love the piece even more...=)

Good job, Mel. I love how you play the guitar. Yes... I know I always say the same thing, but it's the truth!!!

Hey Gloria. Thanks so much for stopping by and listening to this. It's bee so long seen I've upload something so I thought this would be a good one to play. I had so much trouble with this piece simple because of the pace of it. Waltz type pieces are so hard for me so I took the challenge with this one...lol. Anyways, thanks so much for listening Gloria and for commenting. It really does help. =)

Thanks Mike. I was unsure a first on weather I should post this one. I was going to minus the chours effect but, I decided to keep it just so I can remember what the effect does. Thanks so much for listening Mike.

I'm still using my Takemine but, I was playing around with the sound so it might of sounded a little different. I wanted to upload something awhile before but my thumb nail broke and everything I played sounded unbalanced. Anyways, that so much for listening Chris.

Thanks so much Bram for listening. My intent for this piece was to have the audience feel as if it was played in hall. This particular piece is considered a waltz and thus that is why I used this particular effect. Thanks so much for listening Bram.
