Liona Boyd: Malaguena

Here’s Canadian guitarist Liona Boyd with the famous Cuban composition entitled La Malaguena.

Liona was privileged enough to take took private lessons with “Segovia, Eli Kassner, Narciso Yepes, Alirio Díaz and Julian Bream.” read more

I once had a guy tell me that I couldn’t really play the guitar unless I knew how to play Malagurna.

I then asked him if he could give me his opinion as to who played it the best … he answered “Roy Clark.”

Well, Roy is a good guitarist but, Liona’s version is perhaps just slightly more sophisticated perhaps…?

Who do you think plays this piece the best?
