Pepe Romero: La Paloma (Tarrega/Yradier)

[@phyllispetras2181]

My Dad played this on his guitar, an Ibanez.......He did not make a will and when he died of a heart attack in 1970, all of his guitars were given away or sold by his truly miserable second wife who was more interested in money than anything else you can think of. Whoever got all of his guitars certainly has wonderful instruments and I know they are well cared for. PLEASE make a will if you have precious things to leave to somebody. PLEASE support music and all the arts in schools. The first grade is not too young. Happy 2023

As a slide guitarist I understand your feelings and I sincerely respect your values related to music. We must take great care of our musical instruments for they are the source of greatest joy in our life.

My grandpa borrowed and accordeon today and played La Paloma to my grandma at the hospital. It's their love song, you should see the way they were smiling to each other...

A paloma

[@sagrarte1995]

La música, además de ser un bálsamo para el alma, nos demuestra que no tiene fronteras, que a todos nos une la belleza y nos emocionamos y conmovemos por ella. En estos tiempo en los que hay tanto "gritos" para separarnos a los que formamos parte de la comunidad hispana, en esta canción se muestra la realidad de nuestra cultura: la composición es de un vasco, Sebastián Iradier, que se inspiró en un viaje por Cuba, por lo que le dio ese ritmo de habanera; sin embargo, esta pieza alcanzó su éxito en México y, hoy es una de sus canciones más emblemáticas. Por último, el intérprete es Pepe Romero, un malagueño que pasea por el mundo su arte y nuestras músicas. La de la cultura hispanoamericana.🌹🌹

[@tiggywinkle20]

I adore this song and love Los Romeros. Thank you so much.

La Paloma is one of the most beautiful melodies ever! And Maestro Romero is my favorite Classical Guitarist of all-time. I also play this Song on my Guitar.

[@JEANSDEMARCO]

Yep, fell in love witth this song years ago when I heard it played by Billy Vaughn!!

[@TheGuitarManUK]

I must have listened to this 100 times. I can't figure out why this is so good. It sounds so simple, but it really is not. It is just so beautifully arranged and performed. Amazing. I wish one day I can play like this.

[@nilshubinette4932]

I think the same, could it be because it is an expression of love in all its simplicity: so kind, warm and gentle? It's not trying to impress or boast like many other artistic expressions common today. That could be enough, although I tend to go a step further as a Christian, and also claim that it is an expression of our deepest relationship with God, of His forgiveness and love, which we secretly long for in this forsaken world?

[@TheJofrica]

Listening to Pepe Romero play is a joy, but seeing him smile after he finishes, says one thing to me. He is joyful in himself, his kind nature shines out through him, and that is his gift to the audience. He smiles because his gift has been received with joy. Thank you for your gift Pepe!

I never tire of hearing this magnificent piece and Senor Romero brings it as close to absolute perfection as I've ever heard. Sebastian Yradier must have been inspired by something mystical when he created this wonderful music. When properly played, every note touches the soul.

[@mindunwind1]

I would just like to take a moment to say how kindhearted and wonderful everyone in the comments section is. Thank you all for the kind words and reassurance that everything will be okay. I am on the autism spectrum, and often mask how I feel, so listening to music like this really helps me process these feelings, and oftentimes cry because of it. Like I’m free to be myself and not try to conform for others’ comfort. In a world with so many harsh sounds, something about music that is so gentle to the ear just makes me cry.

[@tiggywinkle20]

@mindunwind. I totally agree🙏

[@eoinbutler100]

I love this version .. his playing is just beautiful

[@Robert-oz9fy]

He’s one of the greats. Can you imagine following his fathers footsteps by playing classical guitar? In this song, he has such a soft touch, it’s amazing! I try to copy what he does but it’s beyond my skill to make La Paloma sound as great as it was written. Beautiful homage to his father. He would be proud.

[@louiswebb9068]

Sir, this also is one of my favorite pieces,and you certainly make your father proud, for it sounds like an expression of love rather than a performance. Bravo Sir!

[@CucamongaRob]

Oblivion is where we came from and where we are all going eventually. We can only hope that wherever we end up there is real music like this or at least the essence of whatever it is that makes music effect us. There is a connection between music, the cosmos, and our soul, for lack of a better word. How else could 100 yr old songs make us feel what we feel, seems to me that music is something we have not yet seen it's true depth..

Excelsa y magistral interpretacion de esta joya musical 'La Paloma" By Mr. Romero....Big thank you

[@juanvargas9]

From a master we can hear the trills, vibrato, dynamics, slides, 2, or 3 strings strummed simultaneously. Brilliant. The rhythm comes from Cuba or the Caribbean Islands. It is named "habanera". You hear this beat Bizet's Carmen. Bizet recognized its Caribbean roots, and internationalized the beat, a simple one. The composer, Sebastian Yradier. The lyric is dazzlingly serene and romantic. A lover’s plea, an ode. Musically it is deceptively simple, but contains evocative triplets which give the song its own lyrical signature, accentuated by many a romantic singer.

[@martiglesias60]

Bizet didn't recognized the Caribbean roots, it was the Spanish version he knows when Cuba was a province of Spain.

[@gorkythe45]

Habanera is not from Cuba, is from spanish mediterranean sailors but certainly inspired by Cuba.

Seventy years of experience and still vulnerable in his way to represent the world's most complex instrument; the masters voice ... his guitar and talent to share! Chapeau!
