La catedral. When i first heard this song it changed me completely i went from being a metal lover to a classical lover. ive been playing electric for about 15 years and loved it a lot. But this song changed me to the point now all i want to do is play classical. Im sad that i missed so much years that i could have spent on classical but being 31 now i won't give up and keep going till i get good

[@ninpot2765]

Barrios was interested not only in music, but also approached philosophy, poetry, and theology. In addition to Spanish and Guaraní, the native language of Paraguay, he spoke English, German and French. A genius!

I'm 32, started playing guitar at 21, and classical at 26....La Catedral has been a goal piece of mine since I first heard it a few years ago. I fear with careers and life getting in the way I won't ever have the time or discipline to tackle such a monster. Still, every time I hear it it evokes such emotion and power, always happy to hear a new rendition even if I'm not the one playing it.

[@erwintrompieri8321]

Can you make " 5 levels of Heitor Villa lobos "? when I studied the classical guitar in Europe he was considered by many of the guitar teachers as one of the greatest composers of his era. Being a Brazillian it's awesome for me to see that our many different styles of music had such a impact in how people around the world are studying the classical guitar.

Barrios is my favorite composers and probably the greatest composer for the classical guitar of all times. Thank you Lucas for promoting such good music.

[@pablicki]

Exageras. Sus piezas son súper sencillas y con poca dificultad técnica. Escucha Tarrega, Sor, son más antiguos y más completos.

[@miguelroger6647]

@@pablicki He escuchado a Sor a Tarrega y muchos más. Por tu respuesta no sé si tu has escuchado a Barrios porque precisamente se distingue por una riqueza compositiva y una complejidad técnica en muchas de sus obras que no se dan en otros compositores. La guitarra latinoamericana suele ser de complejidad armónica y compositiva. Depende de la obra. Tarrega y Sor son más románticos y tienen desde estudios y obras super sencillas hasta obras de concierto super difíciles como la gran jota de Tarrega o sus Recuerdos de la Alhambra. O sea no creo exagerar.

[@pablicki]

@@miguelroger6647 gracias por tu amable respuesta. Barrios es TOP10 pero no veo que sea como dices “ probably the greatest composer of all times” . Ahí es donde creo que exageras. Yo soy más español 🤗😅

[@Viktor_Stryapin]

The 2nd movement, not the 1st one, of "La Catedral" is inspired by Bach, by the sounds of the organ in the cathedral of Montevideo, Uruguay. That's the reason, why the 2nd movement is called "Andante religioso", so an Andante in a religious mood. The 1st movement was later edited by Barrios and was written for his wife, when he was in Havanna, Cuba.

[@gianmarcoarzani6369]
