Julia Florida (Agustín Barrios)

Paraguayan virtuoso and composer Agustín Barrios dedicated this lovely piece to his pupil, Julia "Florida" Martinez de Rodriguez, niece of his friend Francisco Salazar. "Florida" means "flowery" in Spanish.
The guitar part was recorded in my loft using my 1998 David Daily CD/IN, and two AKG C451B microphones in an AB configuration 26 inches from the sound board.
Thanks to Will Fraser for his camera work, the use of his rose garden for the video shoot, and his help with the production.
