Manchega by Louis Moreau Gottschalk arranged in intermediate level for 2 guitars by Michael Langer, Style: Fingerstyle, Rock, Pop, Jazz, Latin - The series "Fingerstyle: pop - rock - jazz - latin for guitar" presents compositions and arrangements for one or two guitars , Published in classic notation style with detailed fingerings and accurate appreciation of stylistic subtleties to make these editions joy and desire for new guitar music. The guitar arrangement of this piano composition takes some liberties, especially with regard to the piano accompaniment (left hand), which originate from the Latin American guitar tradition. Among other things, in the parts D and G in the 2nd guitar a stroke rhythm is played, which is similar to the Venezuelan Joropo. Louis Moreau Gottschalk (1829-1869) was an American pianist and composer of French origin. His stays in the Caribbean and in South America influenced him musically and made his compositions of virtuoso salon music, which he created during this phase, timeless in a fascinating way. Michael Langer and Sabine Ramusch recorded this arrangement on their CD "Guitar & Passion: The Latin Experience" (DUX D100130).
