Rosie Bennet plays Sonata III by Ponce

ByBradford Werner
2018

Rosie Bennet plays Allegro Moderato (1st Mvt) from Sonata III by Manuel Ponce (1882-1948) on a 2018 Henner Hagenlocher guitar. This comes via the excellent Siccas Guitars in Germany and their YouTube. You may remember Bennet from The Open String Berlin featured video and interview a few months back. Great to hear another performance by this amazing young artist. Ponce can be very difficult with all the lush chords but she handles it with elegance. You can find the sheet music for Sonata III on Amazon.
