Listen to virtuosi Katarzyna Bury and Christian Reichert perform these classic pieces in a complete reference recording. Then you take Mr. Richert’s place alongside Mr. Reichert and the percussionist for a Latin music-fest that you will never forget! Bravo!

SUGGESTIONS FOR USING THIS MMO EDITION
We have tried to create a product that will provide you an easy way to learn and perform these duets with a full accompaniment in the comfort of your own home. The following MMO features and techniques will reduce these inflexibilities and help you maximize the effectiveness of the MMO practice and performance system: Where the soloist begins a piece or movement solo, we have provided subtle introductory taps, inserted at the actual tempo, before the soloist's entrance. Because it involves a fixed performance, there is an inherent lack of flexibility in tempo. We have observed generally accepted tempi, but some may wish to perform at a different tempo, or to slow down or speed up the accompaniment for practice purposes. You can purchase from MMO specialized CD players & recorders that allow variable speed while maintaining proper pitch. This is an indispensable tool for the serious musician and you may wish to look into purchasing this useful piece of equipment for full enjoyment of all your MMO editions. We want to provide you with the most useful practice and performance accompaniments possible.
Performance Notes for Libertango and Granada The tambora technique on the beginning of Piazzolla 's famous Libertango is very common to us guitarists. Hit the strings with the thumb very close beside the bridge. If you want to improve this and bring out the upper line (here the high e-string) clearly, turn the right hand as much to the left until you hit the e-string with the nail part of the thumb. This will immediately give the upper line a proper accent and you can create a nice melody over the chords. I use some rasgueados in Granada that are not very usual for a classical guitarist, but more flamenco-like. In bars 1-5, 17-21 and also 100-101, I play for every quarter-note eight sixty-fourth-notes. Here is the technique I use for these places: imagine that four sixty-fourth-notes are like one circle. I always start the circle with the thumb moving up (which means from the high strings to the low strings). The reason I start with the thumb is that it is the strongest finger, and so has to be the first of these four notes. The following three notes I do with the "a," "m" and "i" fingers in this order moving down (meaning from the low strings to the high strings). This should be practiced very slowly at the beginning and a Iways having in mind that the right hand is not too tensioned and the moves are not too big. Only then can one make it to a proper speed.
