Petra Poláčková performs Four Preludes by Manuel Maria Ponce (1882-1948)

[@paohermosin]

I love your playing, Petra

[@davidnollmeyer]

Petra is easily one of the finest guitarists I have ever heard. Why has she not attracted more attention?

[@bluedragon7925]

Because "attention" and "finest" rarely go hand in hand.

[@fredericsan007]

Incredible performance, Petra. I've just started to learn Ponce's preludes, and if I can play them half as well as you I'll consider it a success. What an amazing talent you have!

Ponce is smiling down right now! Amazing.

[@Adrian-v7y8e]

Superb: a masterclass in well-modulated vibrato.

[@bill6698]

Without a doubt, the most poignant performance of this piece that I've heard.

[@peternichols7041]

As well it should be I have spent time with this first prelude and I've come to hear the spiritual in it. It is there right on the surface and particularly in her performance.

[@laKore87]

Grande sensibilità musicale

[@massimolonardi7886]

Bravissima!

[@lucreziaraimondo1256]

Che numeri sono, numero VII e poi?

[@FabrizioBaranello]

Really difficult to find a good execution of them. Congrats

[@thesharpwatcher]

Sublime interpretation! You 'tell a story' with this beautiful interpretation. Which transcription you use? Especially of prelude#8.

[@Petra51234]

It's Segovia version...

[@anthonynunez8570]

[@Utopiate1111]

...the hand of god rests on her shoulder. Prolific.

[@greko1958]

I can recognize n.8 (Segovia 1), n.7 (Segovia 2) and n.6. But what is the fourth ?

[@olafkaufmann577]

AFAIK she plays no. 8 (F# minor, Segovia 1), no. 7 (A major, Segovia 2), "no. 6" (according to Stefano Grondona there was no no. 6 in Ponce's manuscripts, Petra Poláčková plays a sketch in B minor, which Miguel Alcázar chose as no. 6 for his editions in 1981 and 1983) and no. 5 (D major, not in Segovia's 1930 Schott edition).

[@LeonJunesGuitar]

Amazing!
