Jorge Morel (Early)

Great clip of the Legendary Jorge Morel.

[@jdeleissio1389]

I knew Jorge Morel in New York. I had a few lessons with him and also socialized with him on occasion. This guy was a beautiful person and also treated us to a few private concerts. In my view, he plays on the level of Segovia and I am lucky to have known him. Jerry Deleissio

[@labellaguitar]

Jennifer Deleissio Segovia could never play like this!

[@StevenBornfeld]

I only found out after his death that he'd lived in NYC for many years, and regret I hadn't gotten to know him better. It seems unanimous that he was a super gentleman.

[@00vTv00]

Yes, gathering up what he left us is a quest for sure, he had some fantastic pieces to share.

[@00vTv00]

@@labellaguitar So, true, Segovia was more of a Spanish Ambassador, who arranged some great pieces, he studied with some true greats, got those insights and carried them forth, but his oeuvre shows he struggled with his playing.

[@curaticac5391]

Outstanding! At the time when the critics were extolling Segovia, there were formidable performers in South America like this young man, who often surpassed him.

[@tegucigalpa4696]

Both legends, can't compare them. Music is not a contest.

[@edeledeledel5490]

Crap

[@johnshort5003]

@@edeledeledel5490 What?

[@edeledeledel5490]

@@johnshort5003 His tone is awful, but that might just be the recording, but his fingering is not very precise and what he is playing is not all that complicated, and seems to be improvised. I really don't want to listen to any more of it. It's unpleasant. Just because it is a bit flashy, doesn't mean he is better than Segovia was, and impresses some people who don't know better. Most video recordings of Segovia are when he was in his 70s and 80s. Segovia's main fame is associated with his promotion of the guitar as a classical instrument - and he was born 38 years before Jorge Morel. Jorge looks about 25-30 here; Segovia would have been 63-68. Not really a fair comparison. So as I said the comment is CRAP!

[@johnshort5003]

@@edeledeledel5490 Actually what I meant was: which of the above two comments were you referring to. I think it's probably better for people to avoid making dubious comparisons. I watched another video of him years later and it was definitely better in all respects. You're right that the tone is awful in this old video but the pieces are definitely not improvisations. I've been hearing them alot on BBC Radio 3 lately. He seems to be quite popular with emerging guitarists.

His rythme is incredible.

Morel at his young age. Very interesting video. I like his compositions very much.

[@MrStevieWitt]

A wonderful player. He will be missed.

[@PaulMcCartGuitarTracks]

I've seen him many times and he was always my favorite. I love his volume. Superior to anyone out there today whose forte is equal to Jorge's pp. No one plays with this volume. They all need amplification.

[@edwinsamuel7625]

Love this performance 💞❤️🌹

[@MrAntonBerg]

He is a fenomenal player. I have just heard about him because a danish guitarplayer (Kåre Norge) plays danza Brasilera.

[@davedoyle9623]

This guy is brilliant ,,,,,Stellar Talent,,,,I am ashamed Ive never heard of him all of life,,,Thank You You Tube!!!!!! He is the equal of Segovia ,Bream or Oscar Giglia maybe evn surpassing them,,,,,,[in all due respect]

[@Aucaman10]

The second theme is called "La Chi-quin-qui-re-ña" (a woman from the town of Chi-quin-qui-rá in Colombia) It author is Pedro Urdanel

[@Pajarillo57]

Fantastic guitarist!!! One of my the most favorite...Burst of energy, precise technique...Wonderful!!! Thanks for shring this rare and very valuable video!!!

[@rodrigogarces2254]

Sorprendentemente histórico !

[@RareGuitarVC]

Rare stuff! Tks for posting it!

[@pleasepermitmetospeakohgre1504]

I love the tune of the first song and how he gets three counter melodies going, you hear two a lot in classical but I've not heard three before. First he introduces a bass line, then a counter point line for additional harmony and then the offbeat rhythmic stabs, it all comes together neatly, wow!

[@NashvilleTuneStream]

It’s called “Missionera”. A terrific piece

[@stasm.9663]

Misionera.

[@Mrggggg58]

Stunning playing!

[@pikedagger]

Just so you know this is my Uncle...He was married to my Aunt Olga who he composed music for.

[@LucianoClassicalGuitar]

This kind of music is very popular in South America. Most guys at parties can play like this and they have no professional musical education :P

[@labellaguitar]

I know what your saying, but no they don’t play like this trust me I know many,. Yes it’s like the guitar was played in womb but not like this my friend among the best he is recognized, and there is a big difference between the best and rest.

[@LucianoClassicalGuitar]

Michael LaBella But I'm half Chilean half Bolivian and when I lived in Bolivia a lot of guys playing charango can just pull melodies with counterpoint out of nowhere.

[@LucianoClassicalGuitar]

My own dad never went to music school or anything and plays better than people in my music program! xD

Misionerita is another piece written by Lucas Braulio Areco (the Misiones' hymn), this one is Misionera by Fernando Bustamante.

[@o.sabiolouco]

Muy bien! Vida a la cultura popular!

[@Dream1Pix]

It's called Misionerita (Woman from Misiones -an Argentinean province). Rithm of galopa -popular south american genre.

[@Aucaman10]

I have no idea where to get the music for "La Chiquinquiñera." I suspect it has never been written down. Morel must have picked it up just by listening to the tune and then making his own arrangement. He IS that good!!

[@labellaguitar]

Auca Man have you found it yet.? I can’t even find the song anywhere else?

[@labellaguitar]

Auca Man please let me know if you have found it ... I can’t even find the song anywhere

[@00vTv00]

Morel received a some great arrangements from his teacher Pablo Escobar, and Escobar's transcriptions are hard to find for sure, but I have been seeing them pop up more and more over time.

Does anyone know the name of the second piece?

[@seanthomasg]

What is the second piece then?

[@abby4410]

I think it's not correct to say, 'bout those great musicians, "this one is better than this other" 'cause everyone has his temperament & personnality, making him (for ex.) choose specific type of instrument and the tempo of pieces . So we need to "know" a musician (documentations) before to understand his work. The listener too , according to his mood , will make his choice , for same piece , like at restaurant

[@MKFitzgerald2]

Notice at 1:19 his vibrato is not that of a guitarist so much as that of a violinist -- the more difficult type of vibrato.

[@sirlacas]

de donde es?....where is he from?

[@DovidM]

Buenos Aires originally.

[@therealshug]

It seems to me that most classical guitarists perform vibrato that way.

[@vinnothelizard]

genius .. ur right .. segovia was never as good as this guy!! he is unique!!!

[@TheSpiralnotebook]

Virility.

[@kpmix8278]

Whats the name of first music?

[@jaungiga]

+KP MIX Misionera by Fernando Bustamante (arranged for guitar by Jorge Morel himself). The title refers to the woman of the Argentinian province of Misiones. Even though it's usually inscribed within the genre "polka", this is actually a "galopa", a Misioneran (?) rhythm. Traditional music composers are not always very original in their titles but if you want to hear another galopa here is Misionerita (little Misionera) by Lucas Braulio Areco (known as the Patriarch of Galopas), arranged and played by Jorge Cardoso, a guitar player from Misiones: /watch?v=3MtPCpU3N6g
