Enrique Granados - Spanish Dance No. 10 in G (Danza Triste)
At a time when the guitar occupied a marginal space within the classical music of the 20th century, the guitarist Andrés Segovia gave an instrumental hierarchy to the Spanish guitar working on transcriptions of classical or baroque works and collaborating closely with composers such as Torroba to help them compose classical music for guitar; composers who would later be called "compositores Segovianos" such as Federico Moreno Torroba, Ponce, Falla, Tansman or Villa-lobos, among others.
As a kid, my mother took me to see him twice at of all places a local high school. We even got to speak with him briefly after the performance. Such a humble, gracious man. A true master.
Very lucky kid
bull shhhh
That wasn’t the Haberdashers School at Elstree? If so, I was there, and also went backstage to get his autograph. Great performance and a true legend
What a treasured memory!
Probably just gracious...he was known for not being very humble
On August 2, 1983 I got to see Andrés Segovia play live in a concert. He had to be helped across the stage to his chair. But his playing was as beautiful and flawless as in the piece in this video. I still have the ticket stub. Thanks for posting!
My dad took me to see Segovia at Town Hall in the 1950s. It was an amazing experience. No one breathed while he played.
I wonder what it must be like to be the absolutely unparallelled master. He always seemed humble.
My wife and I saw Segovia at the Kennedy Center in Washington DC a few years before he died. Absolutely phenomenal.
i saw him 2x at the kennedy center too. i would guess in 1979 and 1981, that is a very wild guess though.
you lucky things - yes he was phenominal!
Did he ever play an electric even as a "joke" ?
liar, he played terrible except for the encore. you weren’t there
@@guajolotl Is making nasty comments your favourite indoor sport?
All guitar players should at least periodically listen to and watch Segovia, if nothing more than to develop a sense of humility about thier own playing.
He's not even moving! How?
Paco De Luca is the other one@@nicholashill9302
This I’ve done and jazz. Out of all types of guitar, this is WAY the hardest
His lessons used to be broadcast on channel 13 on the east coast in the early 60's. Watched em over and over. He was really my first teacher.
Segovia was my mentor for many years. ❤️
Almost 2 months ago I had this tune in my head and I couldn't for the life of me remember what it was. It drove me absolutely insane all this time, because although you can look up music on the internet theres nowhere that you can hum a tune and have the computer name the tune. I found this today completely by chance and my question has been answered. I can finally rest.
I too have those extremely magical occurrences !!! I was lucky this time because I first was thinking of Marcin Dylla playing a different Granados piece on UA-cam...But this led me to a place where I could look at the entire solo guitar score, when I stumbled onto Span.Dance#10 (here) and could read it in my head sitting in my car outside a STARVBUCKS to use their wifi !
It was those incessant reoccurring melody/motif's singing it to myself that brought me back to here, LIKE YOU, wondering just what piece is this I've been walking around with upside my head over several Mos., maybe years !! Today,......................I can finally rest.
The master
There is a site called Shazam that claims to do this. Downloaded but haven't used. I would day you ste lucky to have such earworms. Most of us get stuck with Afternoon Delight..
Sleep good now brother
Hum a tune to SoundHound,
that might work for you.
Cheers mate! 🎉
Segovia made his greatest mark playing JS Bach's Chaconne in Dm. People said it couldn't be done on Guitar.
He did it, and he did it beautifully.
It also took him FIVE ….!!! Years to arrange that. Just to arrange it …
... and it is Segovia's transcription that continues to be played nowadays.
until you try to play the way he plays do you then realise the depth of his knowledge and formidable technique which with he makes everything look effortless.A true musical pioneer who left us an incredible legacy.
I agree 👍🏼🥰
@@ggeorge4144 Indeed, I am fascinated as to how he became so good.
Yes...+ Like others...he played like that at 16 yrs old...
Still the greatest. Listen to al the different tones he is using, some of them at the same time, and always in service of the music, not just a mechanical display like so many others.
excellent comment, thanks it needed to be mentioned
mi guitarrista clásico preferido, no me canso de escuchar sus vinilos, gracias a él la guitarra adquirió el nivel de instrumento de concierto.
El mas grande guitarrista del siglo XX. Es una gran fortuna que existan estos registros fílmicos que ponen evidencia su exquisita sensibilidad.
Oh my gosh, this piece, along with the masterful playing, makes my heart so happy! Many thanks to the memory of Master Segovia.😍😍😍
There is no other musician who has done for his/her instrument what Segovia has done for the guitar. His vision and originality brought the guitar to a global audience as no one else had done and paved the way for numerous great players who all followed in the Maestro's footsteps and had to run the gauntlet of comparison to the incomparable artist.
To be clear - I do support your rhetoric - in terms of I do think Segovia is a titan of the music world who has made a truly monumental, game-changing contribution. Certainly nobody (since Paganini) has done as much for the classical guitar - and Segovia was the more successful of that illustrious pairing (for the guitar - not the violin!). But do we discount what Bach did for the organ? Or what Beethoven did for the piano? and how his Opus 10 put a piano in many an aspiring middle-class home throughout most of Europe? What J R Lewy did for the French Horn -- which influenced Beethoven's 9th symphony, several key works of Schubert's final year, Schumann and critically Wagner? What Anton Stadler did for the clarinet? [for which Mozart's game changing Clarinet Concerto & Clarinet Quintet were written, and many other works by other composers]. There are many others I could list over the centuries.
Segovia will always be my maestro for classical guitar. He's been gone for 30 years and nobody can play like him to this day
Always such a huge thrill listening to the Maestro.
Excellent playing by Maestro Segovia. Love the melancholy feeling of this piece. 👏🏻,👏🏻,👏🏻
Yes. A Maestro. Very well said !
Un hombre tocado por la Gracia de Dios. Lo he escuchado toda mi vida y siempre, siempre, siempre me sorprende.
sound of the old world....beautiful
So many alternate timbres going on... almost every note has a soul of it's own... what a blessing we have this recorded !
superb... Its different when he plays. Tou can FEEL the notes...
It is so effortless to him now, thanks to the many years of effort he put in
Takes me back to my childhood, listening to this absolutely wonderful music on the radiogram.
wow, real gem and beauty of the music and excellent colourful tones played by Segovia. No one in the world can play the tones like Segovia.
Andres Segovia, Mr.Genius Guitarist🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
My aunt took me to see him at the Melbourne Town Hall about 60 plus years ago. Still remember him sitting there with I think no amplification and it was magical.
Speaking of no mic, ..... when I perform/sing, whenever possible, I disdain using a mic. All but a few singers feel lost if they don't have a phallic mic in front of their mouths. It's a crutch. I once saw the Chambers Brothers perform at D.C.'s Sylvan Theatre (outdoor, facing the Washington Monument). It was the first Earth Day, April 20th 1970. the 3 black brothers stood about 5 ft back from their mics and because their voices were so robust, their voices projected v. well. Their big hit was called 'Time.'
Uplifting but serious. This song lives rent-free in my head, and I’m better for it
El Maestro. Not a wrong or muffled note. Beyond incredible !
a unique artist top of the line ,went to master class guitar at USC by Segovia , and saw him play in Pasadena ,,
Truly magnificent. Still the only true and natural way to such an instrument played by a maestro. I remember buy an Andres Segovia cassette back in the 80's which still to this day can't be beaten. Timeless music. Thanks for sharing this with us. Best Wishes 🎶🎶🎶🎶😎😎😎😎
Dear Mr Nupen, thank-you for making these wonderful films!
Simply The Greatest ! ❤
I remember my first husband, who was a professional musician playing guitar along with Andrés Segovia records. He was one of those talented people who could play anything he put his mind to, but the guitar was his main instrument.
Beautiful and so incredible = the sounds are out of this world!
I can’t help but smile when I see n hear this man play the guitar. Such brilliance and grace 👏❤
I heard Segovia when I was first given a cassette tap of John Williams. I thought "there must be others that play this way" and Andres Segovia came up on my BMG music club list. His style and rhythm sound like stories. They take you around the world, tweak your emotions. Some of his softer works are great lullaby's for the adult world. A true master.
Que fenomeno. Extraordinario.
Muchas gracias !!!
Sigh . . . This playing just melts my stresses away!
Thank You 👍
_Economy of motion._ That’s the phrase for this. What an inspiration. He inspired me to go get my guitar and sell it…
Incredible sound!
I was lucky enough to meet the Maestro after one of his last concerts. A memorable occasion
I was amazed to see actual video footage of Andre Segovia and Joe Pass two of my favorite guitarist and their technique is what I love about them.
Técnica perfeita, melhor que isto é impossível!
Don Andres era quien más me gustaba ,cuando era joven y mis manos sanas podian tocar la guitarra.
He is, and has been the only person to master the classical guitar. I was set up to go to Spain, to be his student.
It is joy to come back to this piece again and again.

Ein so großer Meister! Es ist Balsam für die Seele ihn zu hören.❤
A joy to watch
¡Maravilloso! Extraordinario!
Absolutely brilliant
Thanks to the master greatest we have heard 💯💯🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Segovia to the guitar as Casals to the cello and Landowska to the harpsichord . . . pioneering legends!
Great! Well filmed for musician or general viewer, I think. Thanks!! And what beautiful music and musicianship. He always melts my heart with his love of guitar.
What magnficent musicianship and pleasure in the interpretation and resonant qualities of the performance. By the end, I felt transported to a place of peace and smiling satisfaction with my heart and ears positively piqued at a high level trance. .
It's just a beautiful classical performance with the guitar playing the main role. Thank you for the video.
1:44-2:10 moved me so much. Gave me a sense of nostalgia I had forgotten but had missed
saw him in los angeles many years ago....what a treat.
Thx for posting, as a kid growing up in Chicago, I watched his Master Class on public tv Channel 11. I can still play a little Maleguena (very luttle at 73yrs). Wow he was good!
Other players might be able to play this song, but Segóvia brings it to life.
I saw him in a tiny church in New York's Greenwich Village in the late '80s.
I just walked by, saw a sign for it, walked in, gave someone $8 and found a seat in the front row.
He was just a few feet from me.
I don't know why it was so informal, but what a night. I'll never forget it.
Maybe he needed cash for the flight home.
Segovia is truly great. No one plays like he does. His expression is unique and very masculine.
It's Breathtaking maestro!!
Wow..enjoy listening...
Saw him at The University of North Texas school of music years ago . Fantastic.
Excellent technique on the right hand. The way he can change dynamic while not losing the tone in his touch is great.
You're commenting as if you didn't know this was one of the greatest guitarists of all time. It's like watching Mbappé play and saying "excellent technique on the right foot" lol.
@@litamtondy I disagree. As another guitarist, I see his and all guitarists techniques with virgin ears and judge accordingly. And yeah, excellent technique on the right hand, changing dynamics beautifully and perfectly. Amen
@@BeardnScars Yeah I agree, but you didn't get my point: it is kind of funny to say his technique is excellent, since it's so obvious.
@@litamtondy I guess your point would make more sense to me if it wasn’t my first time hearing
@@BeardnScars Oh, you didn't know Segovia before? Allright then, I see your point.
A genius, truly great
This piece is gorgeous
Yeah happy summer song.
Granados was an important Spanish composer as Albéniz.
This performance sums up, perfectly, what Segovia is to me. There are these odd liberties with tempos, like he's almost stumbling into the next note, like a man holding his breath too long, suddenly having to exhale. Then suddenly, there are these moments of unbelievable beauty, where I can swear I have never heard a guitar sound more beautiful or expressive. I'll never be a true "Segovianite", but he definitely fascinates me.
Technical excellence but musically uninteresting. Kind of like a solo by a grunge guitarist or someone speed-practising scales - lots of notes but no music.
@@rayray8687 Technical excellence? Segovia was a very technically average guitarist. Its sound quality does not arouse admiration, as does the fluidity of the game when changing positions. And it's true that his interpretations tend to be mechanical. His most important contribution is that he popularized the guitar as a concert solo instrument. Just compare him with Narciso Yepes or Marcin Dylla.
@@rayray8687 And how much are the tickets going for at your concerts?
@@randolphpatterson5061: Same price as Andreas’s since I stopped performing and he’s been dead for 35 years, lol. Keep in mind of course that you don’t have to be a musician to have an opinion on music.
@@konradschmidt3919: Ok, so let’s call it technical individuality or phrasing, but I do agree that today there are 100s if not 1000s of classical guitarists who are far more excellent players than Mr Segovia, some of them still in their 20s and 30s. But he did popularize the field and inspired and taught many, many other musicians. In any case I was commenting more on the music than the player - a piece I find very unmusical.
Maestro a Segovia es uno de los grandes retos que hay que oír y degustar
Some guitsr players may reach the technical ability to play this piece. But I never heard one, who came through to my soul.
wow, absolute perfection.
Wonderful!
Just love the old maestro.
Mi referente por siempre en la guitarra clásica!
MUITO LINDO!🌺
Excelente magistral 😊
Wonderful 👍
We saw him on his 90th birthday tour at the Poole Arts Centre in the mid-1980s. He hit a few bum notes, but at 90 he had to be forgiven. 👏👏👏
So why mention it?
@@phreffable because he felt like mentioning it, duh.
The Master always musical.
Wow...just wow
Foi uma pessoa muinto inportante para o desenvolvimento do violão clássico e a evolução do instrumento em si eterno segovia.
Without Segovia none of us would be here either to be envoloped in his musicianship or his interpretation of music.
But can I say without indifference that when I listen to Anna Vidovic and her interpretation she has to be mentioned.
The quality of sound she is able to produce with such clarity is outstanding.
The Guitar has developed si much in its internal construction, playability, and sound board resonance yet we still have to admire Segovia for the ability that he had to extact every tone from a note he played.
I have always loved this journey and will continue to do so.
Siempre en nuestro corazón, querido maestro.
Qué barbaridad...es el mejor....es insuperable !!!
A true master!
Combinación de virtuosismo y belleza melódica en estado puro.
Absolutely beautiful - fantastic execution. I wonder how old he was at this time. May we all continue to enjoy such faculties at that age!!!
74 (1967)
The sounds and Guitar 🎸
So much sounds going on enjoy..
He took the guitar from being a parlor
instrument to a new level.
Great!! Cheers! very interesting
Straordinario. Unico!
The tonal quality of his plucking is so incredibly delicious and unique only to him.
You might like also Yamandu Costa, he plays 7 string Brazilian guitar. Check him out on UA-cam.
yes thank you Im familiar with his playing, he is quite talented. But I dislike his speed. Its gratuitous. Very capable and amazing and spirited but when you play that fast, you focus on speed pyrotechnics and dismiss the finer tonal qualities Segovia tried pioneering all his life. Salut! @@formxshape
I don't know much about classical guitar, I've only started watching. I would have to think this would be considered perfect.
Maestro best ever
Un moment de pur bonheur
Chère musique classique
Que serions 'nous sans ELLE
bien dit
Pure magic
Bravo!
Guitar 🎸 love ❤️
Precious moments 🙏🤍🎶🕊🎼🕯🎵
