Vals Venezolano (Homage á Antonio Lauro) by Per-Olov Kindgren

Since I was a teenager, I loved to play the music of Venezuelan composer and guitarist Antonio Lauro (August 3, 1917 -- April 18, 1986). I struggled hard with the alternating 3/4 and 6/8 measures that is so characteristic for the Venezuelan waltzes.
I made this piece to honor Lauro for his contribution to the classical guitar repertoire.

No reverb added! This is the natural sound from my dining room.

Thank you. But this in NOT Lauro... it is my Homage to him.

oh my bad.. :S  the Vals Venezolano title confuses me..but I must say your composition sounds exactly like Lauro's. I would not know it if you did not point it out. Great piece!

[AndanteLargo]

Thanks! No problem. You are not the first to make that mistake. Actually I take it as a compliment! Just want to put things right...:_)

Can I pay with pay pal? Then, the score I get home, or you may send me e-mail after payment by credit card? Regards, Lorenzo.
