Product Description

This is a flamenco guitar arrangement of Malagueña, a piano piece written by Cuban pianist/composer Ernesto Lecuona. It was originally adapted for solo Spanish/Flamenco guitar by Carlos Montoya in 1961 and is widely believed to have been originally written for the guitar. The fact that Lecuona wrote the piece in the style of Spain is likely what makes the Spanish guitar arrangement feel like it belongs to the instrument. Another reason for its association with Spanish guitar is the fact that the main melody from the piece was not Lecuonas invention but was taken from the "Malagueña" flamenco form, originating out of Málaga, Spain, in the 19th century. "Malagueña," and the melodic lines associated with it, is one of the traditional styles of Flamenco/Andalusian music. This rendition is "in the style of Sabicas," a Spanish Gypsy guitarist who is considered by many to be one of the finest flamenco solo guitarists of his time. Lecuonas Malagueña is typically found as a solo piano piece in the key of C# Phrygian, whereas on the guitar, (as is the case with this arrangement) it is normally arranged in E Phrygian.
