M Ponce Sonata Mexicana 1st Movement M Ponce Sonata Mexicana 1st Movement
1st Movement from Manuel Ponce's Sonata Mexicana. From my college junior recital around 1980. Another muff in the beginning but I settled down, thank heavens. I've seen folks get brain freeze which is disastrous. Sorry again for the tape hiss.
M Ponce Sonata Mexicana 2nd Movement M Ponce Sonata Mexicana 2nd Movement
Another piece I did back around 1980 for my college junior recital. As I recall my father in law had an LP of Segovia doing this, so it was good to hear how he phrased it. I found the music in UH Sinclair Library.
