Berceuse Cancion de cuna, arranged for guitar by Leo Brouwer

My second shot at this very pretty Cuban lullaby arranged for guitar by Leo Brouwer. I've never heard the original version, but I'm sure it's great as well as the guitar version.
I decided to retake the video because the first video quality was horrible. The sound was out of sync with the image and was hard to follow. This still needs work as it is still not as smooth as I want it to be.

The composer was ELISEO GRENET, cuban. There is a fairly recent misconception that Leo Brouwer composed the original, but he didn't; Eliseo Grenet did, and the title is 'DRUME NEGRITA".

@jmvitiermusiclover Yes, you are absolutely right! Brouwer only arranged it for the guitar.

It sounds great. I just don't understand why you change position during the theme.

[JapJackson]

The way it is played here is just fine - she keeps it smooth. Staying in position makes for a very difficult stretch, which can also break up the smoothness.

@JapJackson You're absolutely right! That's why I had to change the position.

[chocolixous]

@MrNadeeo The reason for the position change is so that I can keep the melody smoother. I don't play it in the same position as it is marked in the score, because I have to stretch pretty far to get the note.

The original was for voice, and was composed before Brouwer was born. The title is "DRUME NEGRITA", by ELISEO GRENET, Cuban composer from the first half of the 20th Century. The song shows us a black, poor woman singing a lullaby to her baby daughter. Maybe Brouwer did arrange it for the guitar, but the original is by Eliseo Grenet.
