The second of my collection of my Spanish guitar pieces listened to at roadside lunchtime picnics
Capricho Arabe.
Composed by Francisco Tarrega, 1852 - 1909, a prolific composer who is also considered one of the greatest guitarists of all time.
Played here by Jesus Amaya.
Listen for the unexpected gentle, but stunning changes of tempo.

Very relaxing and calming guitar music. It has the same tempo as my walking speed...slow.

I love that song, "The Happy Wanderer"! I think my tempo will be slightly slower, but I can skip along on the downhills...they are my favorite!

I love, LOVE Spanish music. Indeed I have taught 'classical guitar'....but, and it is a BIG but, I do not want to hear your music when I am walking. On average, if a peregrino/peregrina has their choice of music blaring from speakers, it can be heard from at least 450m. I love ambient sound. I do not want to hear your playlist.

Somehow I doubt Gerard blares his Spanish guitar music from a boombox or other loud devise...and he plays it at his lunch spot...just walk on by.
