Andrea González Caballero plays Aire Vasco by Manjón

Spanish guitarist Andrea González Caballero plays Aire Vasco by Antonio Manjón (1866-1919). This comes via Guitar Salon International and their YouTube. Great playing with plenty of nice phrasing and some virtuosic rhythmic sections. Pretty good piece, fluffy but nice contrasts and opportunities for the performer to show their stuff. Manjón doesn’t get as much spotlight as he should but this one is a crowd pleaser…
