    I just heard her in concert three days ago; there are not enough words to describe the wonder of it! She is beautiful in person as well as personality and of course in her music. Her speech and thoughts are so kind toward her audience and toward her work. I only learned about her within the past year but will now follow her onward. What a gift to us all!

    Crème de la crème!
    We have come so far since the days of Segovia to the point where we now have outstanding women performers in a world that had been dominated by men since pretty much when the master himself introduced this style of instrument to the world masses.
    And here we have Ana, a child prodigy of the classical guitar, now a women leading a young generation of not just women but young classical guitarist. She has excellent technique and gives beautiful interpretations. Best of all, she comes across so humble and articulate, a great ambassador for the classical guitar. Segovia would be proud!
    My daughter is such a huge fan. Wonderful to see her in this interview.
    Thank you! 🙏🏼

      Great comment. When I was younger I sought the best teachers I could find. One of my teachers had studied under Segovia, the other teacher studied under John Williams.
      It's a delight to find someone (Ana) who in my teacher runs rings around both those teachers.

    A lot of hidden background work... for these few minutes of playing...
    But you have an inherited gift that only few have: the ability to translate a masterwork from the sheet music into others ears, so that the essence of the composition can be clearly percieved and understood.
    Thanks for using it for us.

    Wonderfully humble. It's hard work, you do it patiently, you get nervous before going on stage, you focus on the music with which you really connect. I heard no vanity or pride, just gratitude for the opportunities your gifts give you, a determination to use them as well as you can and a deep desire to help others do the same. I am very impressed.

    Very recently, I saw her performance on youtube, and I am just mind blown! I have been tweaking knobs and programming MIDI for 12 years, and I have been associated with music for over two decades, so I know that it is not just the amount of time she has invested in the craft, but the dedication and hard work clearly shows in her work. It is beyond comparision.... And not to forget the naturally gifted people like herself.... Bravo, the world is such a better place because of such individuals. Much love to them!

    @tagetes1442 Před 3 lety +9

    Great answer to the sixth question--about standard repertoire. That was my original attraction. When I was 17 my father gave me three old cassette tapes he had made. One was the etudes of Sor and Carcassi. The second was a Julian Bream recording of the Music of Spain. The third, and luckily, was a tape of Liona Boyd playing much of the aforementioned pieces as well as a Greensleeves arrangement of hers. I was hooked and my father bought me a $150 classical guitar. 95% of what I play today (36 years later) is from the early early 20th century back to the early Renaissance and on a much better guitar of course. But I guess the point is to play where your heart is. Where your love is. And that is what will bring forth what the composer intended and hopefully will transmit that feeling to your audience. Otherwise it can only be experimental. Thank you Ana for your tutoring.

    • @natasamladenovic1765

      I agree, remember, she is playing for herself too. Imagine polishing your skills for 30 years to be able to play (for yourself and enjoy) some of those demanding classics and your management tells you: i ve booked you a gig with the Rolling Stones!....nice but🥴 what, how, when, why ...heeelp.

    Music makes you smarter , smarter because it rearranges your perceptionairey animal mind and you begin thinking in the language of the existing energy transfer in the. universe.
    She has completed this by learning sonic,,, energy transfer.

    Hello Ana! Are all your scores written in the G clef only? What about to read some music for guitar in the F clef and in the C clef... well, what I am doing so far is to rewrite some guitar scores in F clef and C clef.... I'd like one day to show them to you, would be a pleasure to give you some of my scores. The music I am writing It is too easy, then for you would be as taking away a candy from a baby...What I am doing it is to play to match and connect the middle C sound with the real middle C note. In other words, for me to play the middle C in the guitar is the one that is in the 2nd string and 1st fret... and the middle C in the G clef is the one appear on the low 1rs ledger line... therefore, I decided to use the C clef instead the G clef. You are my favorite classical guitarist, I admire your awesome talent... how do you do to memorize all those notes and so many long difficult and fast melodies and musical pieces? Wow! You are incredibly talented! Greetings from Tijuana!

That piece sounds so beautiful and promising, I have to know.

BUT GOD also said in french to him that Moïse wouldn't have followers anymore : "Tout Bach que tu es, tu ne pourras pas refaire avec le Temps ce que Moïse a fait subir à la mer Rouge depuis des temps immémoriaux et tu ne pourras jamais entendre cette fameuse Ana, que je réserve pour un autre compositeur génial que je ferai naître en 1963."

    No, it is not an iconic piece. It's boring and I am sick of hearing it everywhere I go. The first part has nothing to do with the second and I have never been able to establish a connection between the two sections. There are hundreds of new and old composers who have written pieces that are enormously more enjoyable than Leyenda, and they actually make sense. Please let's walk away from this piece and start exploring the huge repertoire that exists for the guitar. Thank you.
