I do not own this video. I just want to share this video to the classical guitar lovers all around the world! Andrés Torres Segovia, 1st Marquis of Salobreña (pronounced: [anˈdɾes ˈtores seˈɣoβja]) (February 21, 1893 -- June 2, 1987), known as Andrés Segovia, was a virtuoso Spanish classical guitarist from Linares, Jaén, Andalucia, Spain. He is widely considered to be one of the best known and most influential classical guitar personalities of the 20th century, having a considerable influence on later guitarists, particularly because of important guitar works that were dedicated to him by composers such as Federico Moreno Torroba. Segovia is credited for his modern-romantic repertoire, mainly through works dedicated to him by modern composers, but he also created his own transcriptions of classical works that were originally for other instruments. He is remembered for his expressive performances: his wide palette of tone, and his distinctive (often instantly recognizable) musical personality in tone, phrasing and style. .... Here is one of many masterclasses by maestro Segovia.
