El testament d'Amelia played on a new Simon Ambridge Torres copy.
El testament d'Amelia played on a new Simon Ambridge Torres copy.
A nice opportunity for me came up the other day to try this new Torres copy made by Simon Ambridge. This was in a new church on Dartmoor that I played a recital in last year. Here are a few words about the instrument from Simon.
“A new guitar completed, after Antonio de Torres’ ‘La Invencible’ 1884. I am grateful to Jordi Franco Espada @soleraflamenca for giving me the opportunity to examine and measure this remarkable guitar in Barcelona in 2018, my 67th year- by coincidence the same age Torres was when he made the original for Federico Cano the Spanish guitarist, composer and collector. The primary woods for this guitar are aged close grained spruce and dark chocolate brown Brazilian rosewood, similar to the original. The silver cartouche on the head was engraved by Devon engraver Anthony Law- the monogram ‘FC’ for Federico Cano.
The machine heads on the original are almost certainly not the ones Torres himself fitted but more likely Spanish made replacements from the early 20th Century, so I decided to fit Rodgers @rodgertuningmachines Jerome style which I feel complement the guitar very well”.

    The thing about Ennio Morricone's Spaghetti Western music is that they're so minimalist yet convey so much. They capture the essence of the wind making music through the hanging empty bottles, taught wire fences and clashing wooden doors of an isolated and lazy desert outpost. Less is definitely more.

      It is difficult to tune a guitar to be true across the full range at the best of times. Some guitars inaccuracies won't allow it at all. Octaves show up the problem generally.

    David my Segovia Sor studies book has the chords at bar 9 and 11 the same. But the fingering at bar 11 chord is at the 5 th position. You played the chords at bar 9 and 11 with the same fingerings. Why would Segovia switch to 5th position? Makes the piece difficult to execute with the jump to 5th position

      The edition I used was the Tecla edition. This is how it would have looked in Sors day. Segovia made quite a few changes here and there, sometimes even changed or added notes! I think which ever edition you use you'll benefit technically and enjoy the music. Thanks for watching my channel!
