    There's nothing wrong with being stranded with a beautiful Barrios piece played by someone who plays it to perfection.

    What i like about this woman is how gratuitously she delivers an absolute flawless performance.

    As a Stratocaster player since 1968 recently gone across to Classical I can honestly say Alexandra Whittingham is my favourite classical guitarist. A remarkable player... Well done.

    Mangoré Agustin Pio Barrios, he created most of his master pieces faraway from his country, so there’s always a little bit of sadness in his creations, if you pay attention to it. Greetings from Paraguay, you did a great job.

    The quality of the tone or sound you extract from the guitar combined with the wonderful melody and phrasing make the experience of listening to you transcendent or other-worldly!

    Alexandra gets better and better. And the tone she gets is becoming more and more beautiful.

    What a lovely piece, It's really incredible the way you play this song, It's like you feel what Barrios were feeling at that time, he puts so much paraguayan airs and reminiscences in his classical pieces, It's awesome to see guitar players from other countries feeling and paying attention to those little details of Barrios, greetings and a very big hug from Misiones, Paraguay, the homeland of Barrios

    I once listened to a "complete works of Barrios", actually several times, and it all went in one ear and out the other, definitely don't remember this piece, but hearing it played on its own its outstanding, and bravo for Alexandra's great playing too, all that said I would like to hear Barrios' waltz collected into one playlist, as I do like them as much as Lauro's waltz and like to hear them as a playlist 🙂 !!!
