Hey guys !

I've been playing this piece for a few months now, and I'd like to share it with you. It's not perfect yet, but I think it's kinda decent. Let me know if you like it or not, or any tips to keep improving it :)

Thanks !

Thank you very much for making me discover this piece! I had not heard it before and it seems quite nice. I guess your version is still improvable but you played very well already. Thanks for sharing.

A lovely piece, with a real Spanish flavor to it, from a composer I so far only knew by name. You make a very good case for it, making me long to try out some of Guridi's work. Nice playing, thanks for the upload !

I did not know of Jesús Guridi neither before my teacher gave my this piece ! I felt in love with him and started to listen to more of his piano repertoire, "Danzas viejas" which are 3 and "Piezas breves". He's amazing, I'm also looking forward to play some more of his repertoire :)

Thanks for listening and I'm glad you liked it, makes me really happy. If you ever try to play some Guridi's or spanish music I'd love to hear it :)

Kindest regards  ;D

I like a teacher who gives a pupil something different instead of the usual staple fare :) Yes I may want to try some Guridi if I can get my hands on it. The only Spanish music I posted here so far is by Rodrigo and Falla.
