Thank you Rosie for your sensitive narration of this impressive biography. It shows your deep understanding of Tárrega's art and life. Simply wonderful.
Thank you so much for this short documentary on the life of a great musician. A well rounded presentation. My salute both to Francisco Taregga and this lovely presenter.
This was so masterfully crafted and produced. Bravo! Simply put: Tarrega was monumental to the spanish classical guitar. You can't be a classical guitarist and have not played one of his pieces or at least heard one. I love the European history also incorporated in this episode. Cheers.
A thoroughly wonderful presentation of one of the greatest luminaries of the the Spanish classical guitar, Thank you Rosie Bennet for your thoughtful and very engaging biography of Francisco Tarrega
Hi, i'm from Catalonia, Spain and the video location of Villareal is wrong. This city is in the other side of Spain. Please check it. Except this, the video is great!
Yes, near Valencia (we can see almost “Va…” on the map on the right hand side. Also at 5:06, there is an implication that Flamenco music with guitar accompaniment is a music “for the street”. Actually there are already the cafe cantantes where the music is performed, mostly by the small elite group of gypsy dynasties who are both working class citizens and connected to the Corrida Nacional (Bullfighting). However, as early as 1838, some of the performers called their 6 string twanger “Vihuela” which was once quite distinct from the 4 or 5 string “guitarra”. The myth that Flamenco music is some low class street folk music persists, but it is an elitist music that requires training to the degree of Marital Art schools.
Thank you O Beautiful Sister Rosie for sharing the Gifts you have so lovingly prepared for us. You are an exquisitely blessed gentle sensitive young woman, graced with a calming sonorous wondrous voice which reveals your inner poise, grace and timeless physical and spiritual Beauty. Now at 76 years of age following a doldrum of some fifty plus years i can now thank GOD for His grace which allows me to resume my guitar studies. Once again accept our thanks for the Gift of this Presentation!
Rosie, You provided an outstanding narrative with your unique poetic prose style and lovely captivating “radio voice”. The historical context is rarely part of an arrangement; dire circumstances can sometimes be an inspiration for artistic genius. Your biographical work encourages me to do further research on his music, guitars and playing technique. I will however forgo his penchant for cigarettes 😂
Wonderful commentary of the life of a musical legend, I've loved Spanish guitar all my life, and despite RA limiting my fingering, I have picked up the guitar again at 72, to try and produce some reasonably good renditions of the Tarrega repertoire.
This is a thorough examination of the biography and influence of one of the most important figures in classical guitar. The host Rosie Bennet tells his story in an entertaining and accessible way regardless of whether the viewer has a background in classical guitar.
This podcast/video series is superb. Looking forward to the next chapters! Personally, I really hope you include one on Manuel M. Ponce. Best wishes and congratulations!
Congratulations Angel of music you🪽transport me beside of the Master Tarrega, i can smell the tobbaco when he playing and transcript her music, the shasking of your lips and your mellow voice sound, return me to the reallity, what a beautifull work, well done , thanks for it. 🎼 Congratulations .
A star is born! Never has guitar or music history sounded so sultry, seductive, inviting, satisfying, etc. . . . I hope Tonebase has signed Ms. Bennet to a generous contract because Showtime might swoop in and place her front and center in their next Penny Dreadful series.
I became acquainted with the works of Francisco Tárrega as a child, when I was very young, I played then without using my nails and this helped me master the correct tone of the instrument, and this is because when working with my father I used the method of F. Tárrega, which was taken for basis!
Very happy to see Xuefei Yang. I have a lot of appreciation for her playing of Recuerdos, but for me she is at her best when playing works of Villa-Lobos.
Lovely presentation, I'm also reading the book about his life, one thing I noticed at 4:40, is that the right Villarreal? The one often spoken about is North of Valencia? I'm curious why it's marked at Badajoz?
Thank you 🙏 and enjoy the book - it’s fascinating and absolutely beautifully written! No - the right Villarreal is indeed just beside Valencia - the map here is wrong, an oversight in the edit! Good eye for noticing 🤩
A very worthwhile and enjoyable video. The four questions Rosie set out to answer were on the money. I am really bothered by several comments relating to the presenter's attractiveness and ones that obsess about an historical error here and there. Go listen to some fine guitar music and be appreciative that people are out there working intelligently to bring you information like this at no cost to you.
Brilliant account of Tarrega. For me, he is the embodiment of Spanish music (classical) and a huge influence on Paco de Lucia as a composer/performer/innovator. I often wonder whether the 'rest stroke' was actually perfected by Sor, but originated with the street performer of Flamenco? Speculation really, but the power of flamenco melody comes from the rest stroke. A very sensitive account of Tarrega. Thanks.
This was captivating content and storytelling. Thank you! Just a question though…I read he made his way to England where he wrote Lagrima. What was up with that story?
Your map at 4:40 is wrong! He was not near the Portuguese border. He was in what is now the autonomous region of Valencia, near the east coast of Spain! Please correct this!
⚠⚠⚠You have a significant mistake. The Villareal on the map is located in Extremadura, in the province of Badajoz. Tárrega's Villareal (written Vila-real in Valencian) is in Valencia. See below: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Villarreal
Thank you Rosie for your sensitive narration of this impressive biography. It shows your deep understanding of Tárrega's art and life.
Simply wonderful.
Every great man has a great father!!
Not true. My father was a child molestor who ruined the lives of dozens of female children.
Thank you for the history and my lovely music of francisco tarrega! I'm very happy!

I am an true Amature. But I have played 10 pieces of Tárrega. That alone shows his monumental importance of the classical guitar.

Fantastic Rosie, more of this please. 😊
Nothing more beautiful than the sound of the English language spoken correctly. Bravo.
En realidad, el portugués, el gallego, el catalán y el italiano salentino son exquisitamente más hermosas.

Great work Rosie! Thank you so much! All the best, Nicolas
Thank you for this! I love his work.
I have my string instruments roots on ukulele and the (portuguse) cavaquinho. Tarrega is the reason i have started playing classical guitar.
A very beautiful video. Thank you for uploading it.

Villareal is not between Spain and Portugal....4'40'' but I am sure Francisco would have loved the area.
So nice to see you Rosie! Great video!! Cheers

Brilliant. I appreciate this greatly.

not yet a minute in and u have my full attention!
This is like a great musical bedtime story
Great information, thanks
Very happy to see Xuefei Yang. I have a lot of appreciation for her playing of Recuerdos, but for me she is at her best when playing works of Villa-Lobos.
Really enjoyed this what a master on guitar ❤
Wondrous !
Now, I need to subscribe to the channel and hit the notification bell.
Informative and well done!
That voice is as captivating as about any fine piece of music...
No doubt Tarrega's experience playing the Piano significantly contributed to his beautiful Guitar compositions and elegant Piano transcriptions.
Great! Thanks ❤
Never heard of this podcast until now. It’s so informative and entertaining! New sub!
I Love your voice. I could hear you speak all day.
Thank you for the historical context of his work! I like learning about that.
Do you know how Granados died? That’s a tragic story.
Lovely presentation, I'm also reading the book about his life, one thing I noticed at 4:40, is that the right Villarreal? The one often spoken about is North of Valencia? I'm curious why it's marked at Badajoz?

After this video I started to feel that his story even as catchy as his music 🎶
Seductive lisp
Well done a balanced quality production
4:39 not the right Villareal. The one were tarrega was born in the Mediterranean east coast.
Tarregas applause for you. 👏
Map at 4:40 has the wrong Villareal.
True! Missed my attention in the edit - Tarrega was from Villareal in Castellon! Thanks for pointing out

A very sensitive account of Tarrega. Thanks.
Villarreal is not in Portugal, sorry but that map at 4:32 is so wrong
This was captivating content and storytelling. Thank you! Just a question though…I read he made his way to England where he wrote Lagrima. What was up with that story?
OMG, her voice 😍... ASMR or good to sweet sleep 😴 Xd.
👏👏👏💯
My goodness but I love your voice! You should be hired to read audiobooks.
She's easy on the eye too :).
Heck yeah!

Some mistake, when demonstrated endecha instead oremus
Will this podcast be on a regular schedule?
Rosie you are so perfect as a host narrator. Very beautiful. 🥀🌱🌾🌻
Well, that was fantastic. Now do Sor.
Oh Rosie tout est blanc, tes yeux m'éclairent...(F.Cabrel)

Villarreal is not where you have located it, it's in the other side of Spain, near the Mediterranean Sea, in the province of Castellón.
Femininity personified!
4:42 Your map has totally misplaced Villarreal. The error should be fixed.
Your speaking voice is so calming, you could do ASMR
pretty sure this *is* ASMR
