Romance Anónimo (Anonymous Romance) often leaves me pensive with its origin and authorship in question. The earliest recording of Romance is on phonographic cylinder made in Madrid more than a century ago. Since then for years it has been played acknowledging some anonymous composer!
I find no reason why on earth does such a beautiful piece have no author? What terrible things happened to the maestro that led him to such oblivion?
Romance indeed fills me with romanticism like the smell of an unknown alcohol, like the best poetry I am yet to read, like embracing a total stranger gifted but unsung.
Being unaware of how well does it suit I have tried some tremolo at the end. My gratitude would find no words for my friend who first taught me to play Romance. Even the recorder I am using now happened to be bestowed by him.
It's for you pal.
