Recalling the “Calle Real” (real street) style of composing by Venezuelan composers in the mid 20th century, this piece was composed in the form of a sentimental song, a common inspiration for solo guitar music.
One composer whose music is loved by many guitarists is the famed Antonio Lauro, to whom this piece pays homage.
The music features a melody of longing and tenderness, supported by idiosyncratic chordal shapes that facilitate a natural flow in this song-without-words.
This piece also provides concert artists with a brief Latin American solo.
