Florian;

I have a at least one which is a Guajiras/Bulerias for four guitars. You can extract the Guajiaras portion and the first guitar part. It is in TablEdit and you can turn off any parts that you do not want to listen to.

The story behind this piece is that my wife is from Peru and I think of her when I hear the music or words. It is a song from Chile and has special meaning to me because of my wife. Also, my first teacher was from Chile, Angelica Begliomini, and we played this song many times.

Someone I know named Ronnie Drew who was a part of and founder of the Irish group “The Dubliners”, sang this song and I have several recordings of it from him. It turns out that Ronnie left Ireland during the 1950’s to teach English in Spain, and he learned a bit about flamenco. His singing in Spanish is like an experienced Irishman who has traveled the world and he is a bass as well as a talented gentleman! By the way for years he played Irish music with a blanca flamenca. Ronnie is off on his own these days and sometimes teams up with another fellow. I received an inventation to see Ronnie perform in Germany a few weeks back. Wish I could have gone.

I would like to get together with others to play this. Perhaps we could do it on the foro? I might even do a multi track recording on my own.

I will put a copy in the Tabs section.
