Don AndrÃs and Paquita. The Life of Segovia in Montevideo. By Andres Segovia and Andr. Edited by Charles Postlewate and Marisa Herrera Postlewate. Amadeus. Hardcover. 432 pages. Published by Amadeus Press. HL.333459. ISBN 1574672053. 6x9 inches. This heartbreaking tale uncovers a mystery in the life of one of the most important personalities of the twentieth century, guitarist Andrés Segovia. 1893-1987. He married the widowed Paquita Madriguera. 1900-1965. , famous child prodigy pianist and prized student of Enrique Granados, in 1935 as his international career was blossoming. They fled their native Spain under death threats when the Spanish Civil War erupted in 1936 and began an odyssey that landed them in the Uruguayan capital. Segovia's support for the fascist Franco resulted in his banishment from the lucrative American concert scene, while the travel dangers of World War II further isolated him from the rest of the world. During this time, Segovia greatly enriched the guitar repertoire through numerous arrangements and collaborations with major composers via correspondence. It was also an era of happy family life with Paquita. The couple collaborated on two of the most important contemporary guitar concertos and traveled throughout Latin America to perform. Then tragedy struck as the guitarist became entangled with a beautiful Brazilian singer in an affair that ruined his marriage and brought tragic consequences to his family life. In writing his autobiography, Segovia could never face this period. With the help of tenacious research and Paquita's two surviving daughters, Alfredo Escande diligently lifts the veil of secrecy and reveals a magical age of music history framed around the couple's decade together.

Gepubliseer deur Amadeus Press. HL.333459. ISBN 1574672053. 6x9 duim. Dit hartverskeurende verhaal ontbloot 'n raaisel in die lewe van een van die belangrikste persoonlikhede van die twintigste eeu, kitaarspeler Andrés Segovia. 1893-1987. Hy was getroud met die weduwee Paquita Madriguera. 1900-1965. , Bekende kind wonderkind pianis en gesogte student van Enrique Granados, in 1935 as sy internasionale loopbaan is bloei. Hulle het gevlug hul geboorteland Spanje onder doodsdreigemente wanneer die Spaanse burgeroorlog uitgebreek het in 1936 en begin 'n swerftog wat in die Uruguay hoofstad geland het vir hulle. Segovia se steun vir die fascistiese Franco gelei tot sy verbanning uit die winsgewende Amerikaanse konsert toneel, terwyl die reis gevare van die Tweede Wêreldoorlog hom verder van die res van die wêreld geïsoleer. Gedurende hierdie tyd, Segovia grootliks verryk die kitaar repertoire deur talle reëlings en samewerking met groot komponiste via korrespondensie. Dit was ook 'n era van 'n gelukkige gesinslewe met Paquita. Die egpaar saam op twee van die belangrikste kontemporêre kitaar concerto en gereis hele Latyns-Amerika uit te voer. Dan tragedie getref as die kitaarspeler verstrengel geraak met 'n pragtige Brasiliaanse sangeres in 'n verhouding wat sy huwelik verwoes en het tragiese gevolge aan sy familie lewe. In sy outobiografie skryf, Segovia kon nooit hierdie tydperk in die gesig staar. Met die hulp van taai navorsing en Paquita se twee oorlewende dogters, Alfredo Escande ywerig lig die sluier van geheimhouding en onthul 'n magiese ouderdom van musiekgeskiedenis geraamde om die egpaar se dekade saam.
