Como el vino, los años le han dado al maestro Pepe Romero un nivel estético (expresividad) impresionante. ¡Bravo, maestro Pepe Romero! ¡Bravo, Moreno-Torroba!
amigos y amigas: Quisiera compartir con todos este poema que Manuel Machado dedicó a FEDERICO MORENO TORROBA en 1935.Me parecen tan cercanas sus palabras describien- do aquella sociedad que bien podrían haber sido escritas hoy. MÚSICA (1935) (a Federico Moreno Torroba) Los dias son duros, No es hora de versos, de preciosidades ni garliborleos. Los Hombres se miran con odio.Lo tierno, lo amable,lo dulce, no es fruta del tiempo. Hoy reina lo agrio impera lo serio. La Vida está triste. El Mundo está feo. Los jóvenes piensan, y sienten los viejos. Las gentes se ocupan del pan y del techo. No es hora de adornos ni de condimentos. Pero,como siempre, en el fondo inquieto del ánima está lo inefable:besos que afloran al labio, dolores secretos que nublan los ojos, suspiros,recuerdos, añoranza,"saudade",esperanza; en fin ,todo aquello que hoy no puede mentarse sin risa de un vulgo moderno, conviene al pentagrama --Federico bueno, Federico noble-- el hablarnos de eso... Como habla la Música a los sentimientos, que son muy antiguos y son muy modernos, y lloran o rien sin moda y sin miedos, ni darles vergüenza de que son eternos. Y pues las palabras, gastadas,perdieron, cual monedas viejas, el tipo y el precio, basta de palabras...... ¡Música ,Maestro!
Fantastic Player - I saw Pepe close to 20 years ago on a special tour with Paco Pena, Joe Pass and Leo Kotke. Paco was great but Pepe ultimately stole the show. I was in tears - that's how good he was!
MrDizzyvonclutch you piece of shit. look at nowadays tendencies you foul. when a great artist put out a great album it share it for free on youtube for marketing. the quality on youtube is not great for a real music lover (like me for example spending like 1000 Euro on a pair of headphones).. is just informative you old nobody. Who wants the album buys the vinyl or the CD.. or downloads it in FLAC or WAV format (format with no losses)..The real money are made in live concerts, all kind of contracts. I'm the dumb ass? You are an old dumb stupid fuck who don't know how things are made nowadays in the music biz so shut the fuck up.. you are pathetic..
There is always a mr. politically correct Mr. Dizzyvonclutch out there. They always pretend they are so concerned with the welfare of the artist, when in fact they are usually entirely self serving , out only to bully and prove their pseudo intellectual nous! A product of pathetic modern world! Well spoken Mr. Oskar Dirlewanger (where do they get these names?). He is an old nobody, out to prove he's a "somebody"
Both of you make fair points. MrDizzyvonclutch is completely right. However, this clip is probably ripped from a copyrighted old DVD and is usually impractical for average music lovers to buy. So I agree that in this case it shouldn't be involved in copyright issues. But copyright should protect most of music and art, which is an artist or musician's work and career.
Love how Maestro’s planting of the right hand propels the zarzuela inspired melodies, overall rhythm, and precision of his technique. Beautiful Rodriguez guitar sound...
Sensitively, exquisitely composed and played. I like also seeing and hearing Sr. Romero talk about the piece. Getting this other impression of him enriches the performance. Thank you for uploading.
Great to hear observations made about these magical songs. Keep the tradition of the Spanish / Classical guitar alive by sharing / posting more vids like this. Luv from London - Steve
This is a great video! THANKS for giving it to us all! It almost covered my question I posed when I searched “what is the meaning behind Torroba’s Suite Castellana?”.
Just watched Anna Vidovich play this, the difference in interpretations is amazing. It's hard to believe that two people play the same piece so differently. Love both though
Do you mean on the sides? it's only one piece of wood, Rio rosewood, with two colours(dark brown and yellow). Rodriguez was famous for this special selection of R. rosewood that he used on is best guitar called "churchdoor".
K Boudreaux looking at the rosette, headstock and solera, I'd guess that's a guitar by Miguel Rodriguez with top of Western Red Cedar, back and sides of highly figured Brazilian Rosewood. The back and sides are just solid wood, not 2 types
A ver, a ver, tampoco hay que pasarse de sentimentalismos. La pieza ya es sentimental de por sí, lo que hay que hacer es meterle ritmo a eso, y un poco de vida con un poco más de velocidad, pero sin pararse, no vaya a ser que te guste la velocidad y la locura en la guitarra y acabes con las muñecas jodidas.
Tal vez sea porque me haya acostumbrado a la version de Segovia (hasta el momento es mi favorita). Esta version en particular no me ha gustado para nada, y no es que critique la tecnica de Romero, simplemente es demasiado lenta para mi gusto. En realidad no se si describirla como lenta, en partes la velocidad esta bien pero a veces pareciera pausar algunas frases de la obra.
Si, eso es lo que digo, te puedes dormir escuchándolo. Yo también estoy acostumbrado a escuchar la versión de Segovia, que tiene mucho más ritmo y vida, por alguna razón. Aunque es verdad que desde un principio a mi Pepe Romero no me dice mucho, para mi está demasiado inmerso en el folklore y el espíritu español.
Muchas veces, el sentimiento es más importante que la velocidad. El sentimiento y expresividad de Pepe Romero es uno de sus grandes atributos. Sin olvidar su gran técnica y dominio de la guitarra. Sus aprendizajes flamencos en su niñez que su padre Celedonio puso en manos de Paco Ávila le han proporcionado un plus de energía y expresividad que incorpora a la guitarra clásica
Yes his performance would sound much better if it was not a recording and thus a great deal of the sound is lost to us. This is the nature of an instrument that has fantastic sympathetic resonance resources. Unfortunately those who cannot tune instrument or have ever actually played one usually miss this point. For instance tone deaf piano wankers have a tendency to think that everything needs compensated temperament to be in tune and their ears and musical mind is set this way. Pepe like all great guitarists can change the temperament of the instrument with the touch of the left hand as he plays so the tuning is not constant the way a keyboard instrument is. In fact a good guitar can tune slightly differently every day and still sound great in the hands of a great guitarist.
POR FAVOR. LOS COMENTARIOS GUÁDATELOS PORQUE TU INGLÉS ES UNA PENA Y YO LO QUE EUIERO ES OIR LA MÚSICA Y ENCIMA INSISTES. LA FASTIDIASTE. YA NO PUEDO COMPARTIRLO

El Maestro Romero, es una eminencia tocando música Española, uno de los mejores del mundo sin duda en este Arte.
Grande maestro Pepe Romero 👏 bellisima interpretación de una gran obra
Como el vino, los años le han dado al maestro Pepe Romero un nivel estético (expresividad) impresionante. ¡Bravo, maestro Pepe Romero! ¡Bravo, Moreno-Torroba!
Pepe Romero +Torroba=Spanish Heaven! Gracias !!!
Закінчиться війна, відвоюемо країну та свободу і буду слухати таку музику постійно) Браво !
Poema de Manuel Machado a Federico Moreno Torroba
amigos y amigas:
Quisiera compartir con todos este poema que
Manuel Machado dedicó a FEDERICO MORENO TORROBA
en 1935.Me parecen tan cercanas sus palabras describien-
do aquella sociedad que bien podrían haber sido escritas hoy.
MÚSICA (1935)
(a Federico Moreno Torroba)
Los dias son duros,
No es hora de versos,
de preciosidades
ni garliborleos.
Los Hombres se miran
con odio.Lo tierno,
lo amable,lo dulce,
no es fruta del tiempo.
Hoy reina lo agrio
impera lo serio.
La Vida está triste.
El Mundo está feo.
Los jóvenes piensan,
y sienten los viejos.
Las gentes se ocupan del pan y del techo.
No es hora de adornos
ni de condimentos.
Pero,como siempre,
en el fondo inquieto
del ánima está
lo inefable:besos
que afloran al labio,
dolores secretos
que nublan los ojos,
suspiros,recuerdos,
añoranza,"saudade",esperanza;
en fin ,todo aquello
que hoy no puede mentarse sin risa
de un vulgo moderno,
conviene al pentagrama
--Federico bueno,
Federico noble--
el hablarnos de eso...
Como habla la Música
a los sentimientos,
que son muy antiguos
y son muy modernos,
y lloran o rien
sin moda y sin miedos,
ni darles vergüenza
de que son eternos.
Y pues las palabras,
gastadas,perdieron,
cual monedas viejas,
el tipo y el precio,
basta de palabras......
¡Música ,Maestro!
Muy bello. No conocia ese poema. La fecha lo dice todo. Gracias por compartirlo. Saludos cordiales.
I too saw that guitar summit. Great concert.Pepe is one of the best virtuosos around.
Impressive great master of guitar. Wunderful expression. He and Goran Krivokapic. are the masters of this instrument
The best interpretation of this suite by Torroba I have ever heard! I fully agree with Rolando Navarro! BRAVO!
Fantastic Player - I saw Pepe close to 20 years ago on a special tour with Paco Pena, Joe Pass and Leo Kotke. Paco was great but Pepe ultimately stole the show. I was in tears - that's how good he was!
Gosh that's a tour
Wow! The guitar trinity!!!
No problems with the copyright.. such things should never take down for legal issues.. this is art.. and art must be free .. for people to enjoy.
good way to kill a great art, make it even more dificult for the artist to make a living! dumb ass!

I so love this music. Pepe is such a master. And oh the tone of that guitar ....so beautiful.
One of the greatest guitarist's of are time
One of greatest pieces ever written for guitar! Exquisite!
Love how Maestro’s planting of the right hand propels the zarzuela inspired melodies, overall rhythm, and precision of his technique. Beautiful Rodriguez guitar sound...
Sensitively, exquisitely composed and played. I like also seeing and hearing Sr. Romero talk about the piece. Getting this other impression of him enriches the performance. Thank you for uploading.

Totally agree not enough said many of us just study solamente.
How beautiful the music and artist.
Thank you for the post-John
bravo maestro romero
Grande Pepe Romero, y su guitarra Rodríguez suena como si fuera de otro mundo.
What beauty
speechless - only wonderful, thank you for uploading !!!
This is a great video! THANKS for giving it to us all! It almost covered my question I posed when I searched “what is the meaning behind Torroba’s Suite Castellana?”.
Just watched Anna Vidovich play this, the difference in interpretations is amazing. It's hard to believe that two people play the same piece so differently. Love both though
M° Romero doesn't play the print mistakes. She does...
In the Segovia addition? In the first movement?
wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!
Exquisite playing with a lot of atmosphere.
WoW! Bravo!!
amazing guitar and playing of course, what's with the two toned wood? different types?
c/br
Do you mean on the sides? it's only one piece of wood, Rio rosewood, with two colours(dark brown and yellow). Rodriguez was famous for this special selection of R. rosewood that he used on is best guitar called "churchdoor".
The sides are rosewood the different colors are caused by the lighter color of the sapwood part of the board.....
K Boudreaux looking at the rosette, headstock and solera, I'd guess that's a guitar by Miguel Rodriguez with top of Western Red Cedar, back and sides of highly figured Brazilian Rosewood. The back and sides are just solid wood, not 2 types
ME GUSTARÍA SABER CON QUÉ GUITARRA ESTÁ TOCANDO.
Zazuela ? So picturesque? Played for the people? How I say in Spanish. Patriotic composer who painted a picture for the people. Pls help
What DVD is this from?
5:40 the lick!
just the sound of the guitar,,,,no spin
A different interpretation. I like it, but he delays some notes too much. It's amazing anyway.
Agree about the delayed notes. He's a competent player. Stylistically a bit stiff.
Yeah, Danza really suffers from delaying too much. I think it sounds a lot better when it's rhytmically precise.
Why there are 10 dislikes in this clip...?
Sadly they list there hearing
is this the Herman Hauser guitar?
It's a Miguel Rodriguez. Headstock and rosette are the telltale details.

claro , mas vale expresión que ir a una velocidad absurda

Is being slightly out of tune supposed to make it sound more authentic? Perhaps it sounded better in the room...
Yes his performance would sound much better if it was not a recording and thus a great deal of the sound is lost to us. This is the nature of an instrument that has fantastic sympathetic resonance resources. Unfortunately those who cannot tune instrument or have ever actually played one usually miss this point. For instance tone deaf piano wankers have a tendency to think that everything needs compensated temperament to be in tune and their ears and musical mind is set this way.

In fact a good guitar can tune slightly differently every day and still sound great in the hands of a great guitarist.
my old guitar teacher married his daughter I think
Yes I have run into them at various classical guitar events in L.A. his daughter and husband are very nice people and
walking encyclopedia of guitar.
the rubato killed the first movement
Watching a pepe Romero video without rubato is like watching Van Halen lol. Not everyone plays like John Williams or David Russell.
*Van Halen without tapping
"I don't lke it,so it's bad."LOL,grow a brain then try to understand the real world around you moron.
Café con leche in plaza mayor
This guy loves to talk.
It’s a good thing we love listening to him more!
He plays like a rookie.
Please share with us your interpretation of the piece! Which i'm sure you should pay us for having our ears tortured by your "expertise'! HA!
MrDizzyvonclutch I would have to agree with pierre, I prefer David Russel's interpretation.
I make subjective judgments on the quality of fine art and share them publicly.
MrDizzyvonclutch l believe, you get money to post this kind of comments.
toobian2 exactly, SO WE CAN ALL GET A GOOD HEARTY LAUGH AT HOW GODDAMNED PATHETIC THEY ALL ARE!!! HA!!
POR FAVOR. LOS COMENTARIOS GUÁDATELOS PORQUE TU INGLÉS ES UNA PENA Y YO LO QUE EUIERO ES OIR LA MÚSICA Y ENCIMA INSISTES. LA FASTIDIASTE. YA NO PUEDO COMPARTIRLO
QUÉ MANÍA TENEIS ALGUNOS DE HABLAR Y HABLAR. NADIE ESPERA OIR GRAZNAR UN CUERVO CUANDO LO QUE LE OFRECEN ES MÚSICA.
Thank you.
