An interview with Oscar Ghiglia - The Segovia Legacy | pt. 1

[@TalentedDilittante]

I hope I don't embarrass Oscar with this memory:... I had heard he liked good pineapple; to thank him for inviting me to his master class at the MAA in 1971, I ordered a pineapple from Dôle in Hawaii. When I took it to him, he invited me in, to share it with his wife and him. He was learning a new piece--doing exactly as he had taught us: cadenced slowly, phrase-by-phrase ... perfectly even, at first mechanical, working out the best fingering and position--experimenting. Then, he played a recording of Segovia performing the same piece. He listened, shook his head, disconsolate, and said, "Why do I even bother!" He put the guitar down, unboxed the pineapple, sliced it, and we ate.. . . I also remember when in class Oscar lost patience with me and admonished me to ""Learn to count!!

"Dole" has the image of a company associated with oligarchic practices carried out in South America, Africa such as exploitation of workers, corruption of power and support for coups d'état. I won't go into the validity of this image.

Oscar's immaturity would be my lifetime accomplishment, if ever, lol.

Grande Maestro Ghiglia

o.Ghiglia,　segovia マスタークラスに参加するカレを見た。誠実な印象は演奏に反映している。後に、初のニホンへ。おとなしい音楽を鑑賞する当時のニホンの聡明期を継承せしguitaristと伴にする青年ボクがいた。演奏後のカレの話に、｢ニホン人は静かで私の演奏はどうだったかが分からなかった｣と。海外から思えば、納得したものだった。今カレは巨匠としたjp専門誌を眺めて感慨無量か。

The piece at 7:26 is just sublime. Does anyone know what song that is?

[@MethenySco]

Variation 16, Ponce's Variations on "Folie de Espana" and Fugue.

I love the way Oscar Ghiglia plays. I'm just just discovering him! I hope I can hear more from him. I would appreciate if anyone can help me with this.

[@jonathanbarnes3061]

Segovia was a master but before that he was a teacher.

[@MrBallarin23]

Luthier Leone Sanavia made some guitars for Maestro Ghiglia

[@Minotauro_di_Chieti]

LEone Sanavia was a furniture maker who eventually did some guitars...that actually sucked major donkey ass so Segovia never used them.

[@MrDizzyvonclutch]

Praising love for the music of Bach, then breaks into Oscar playing a piece by Scarlatti.... just saying... still love it but, that is confusing to beginners.

[@aristodemo1660]

Proprio lui parla di legare la melodia .... che non sa neanche fare 2 note legate

[@segovianaofficial]

Mi spieghi signor Aristodemo: lei come lega le note?
