Andrés Segovia - Fandanguillo

Andrés Segovia - Fandanguillo - by Federico Torroba

Andrés Torres Segovia, 1st Marquess of Salobreña, was a Spanish classical guitarist widely regarded as one of the most important figures of the classical guitar in the beginning and mid 20th century.

Segovia's main musical aesthetic preferences were music of the late 19th and early 20th century especially in the Spanish romantic and nationalist style - a style different from flamenco. Many works of this style were written especially for him and formed part of his core repertoire, e.g. the guitar works of Federico Moreno Torroba.
