    I never fact-checked this but one of my professors in college said that it was due to the guitar gaining popularity in the 19th century in serious, art music that prompted the piano consortium to turn it into an accompaniment instrument of folk singers and troubadours. They wanted serious performers and composers to focus on piano, not guitar.

    The world's truly greatest guitarist. My teacher attended his master classes years ago. Andre could get the full sound of the guitar and create all emotional possibilities. His sound, control and feeling were unmatched. I always wanted to meet him and speak with him. Few guitarists were talented enough to attend his classes. Julian Bream was master of the Lute. Segovia was master of classical guitar. He was truly gifted and dedicated beyond imagination. God Bless him and thank you for showing us what the guitar can be and do. You did so much for so many and the world of guitar. You were brilliant.

    Thank you Daniele Magli for this wonderful film which I hadn't seen before. Maestro Segovia has been a great hero for me for many years, since I first listened to his records back in the 1960's. You only have to listen to his playing to feel that this was a man witth a truly poetic sensibility (what a joy to hear him reading from Platero & I), and he was clearly a man of great charm and good humour. Of course, his views and attitude to life - even his style of playing the guitar - may not resonate well with many in today's world, he was not of today's world, he was born before the first World War, indeed before the turn of the 20th century. For me, and for many people, he remains a charming man and a very great musician.

      Thanks for this. A fine effort. I also saw the Maestro in that 1987 concert as I remember it hi arrived on state and waited for the audience to come to complete silence. Only his greatness allowed him to command that audience and I learned how much he was superior to anyone else I’ve ever heard.

    The most amazing thing I think about Segovia is that he had very little competition and had only himself to measure against. He set a high bar.

    If all of you are feeling ashamed of your practice habits right now- you should! I am right now! This is a perfect illustration of the perfection achieved through passion, and dedication.

    What a monster talent Segovia was. Such an inspirational player. Julian Bream and John Williams are the other two GIANTS of classical guitar. Thanks for posting this.

      They are standing on Segovia's shoulders,- Bream and then Williams after that. Expression above exactitude.
