Traditional Catalan Song - Arranged by Miguel Llobet
These old Catalan songs are played a lot through performances. This is one
of my favorites. Sweet and very expressive. You should be careful with the
harmonic octaves. They are very important for the expression of this piece
and must be played carefully.
