William Walton wrote “Five Bagatelles for Guitar”.
This one is the N° 3 - Alla Cubana
It was written for Julian Bream, given their first performance on 27 May 1972.
Thus, Walton was not used to write for guitar, this instrument being out of his usual work. So, he asked to Julian Bream, and they worked together, and this masterpiece appeared…
Most of the professionals of the guitar think that it’s perhaps one of the best work done for guitar.
At least, it’s a true masterpiece!!!
