A nostalgic Guarania composed by Samuel Aguayo (1909--1993, Paraguay), who was severely homesick as he left Paraguay when he was just 18 -- this track is dedicated to his young love.
The track became famous through Hugo del Carril in the socio-political argentine film
«Las aguas bajan turbias» in 1952.

Herzlichen Dank für Deinen Kommentar Andy!
Die Harfe ist vor mindestens 25 Jahren in Paraguay von einem sehr legendären Harfenbauer gebaut worden. Das 'Geheimnis' des Klanges liegt ganz einfach im Anzufen der Saiten (mit den Fingernägeln). Ich sage immer zu meinen Schülern: "höre dir selbst zu, ob dir dein gespielter Ton auch gefällt" -> so einfach..!
Wie heisst es doch so schön: "C'est le ton qui fait la musique!"
Herzlich, Daniela

Thank you dear Andy!
The harp is made in Paraguay like 25-30 years ago from a famos constructer. The 'secret' of the sound is the execution to play the strings (with the finger-nails). I allways teach to my learner: "lissen to you self when you play and check if you like your sound..." -> very simple!

Very nicely played and recorded. The harp has a sound as if its made in Argentina..slightly more solid and classical guitar -like. Very distinguished.
Congratulations.
