New Transcription & Fingering, "Sabor a Mi", Mexican Bolero

New Transcription & Fingering, "Sabor a Mi", Mexican Bolero

Video #1 With Slow Motion

Álvaro Carrillo Alarcón was a Mexican popular music composer and songwriter, and he wrote what I consider the best know of all Mexican Boleros: Sabor a Mi "Taste like me". He was born in Mexico, on December 2 1921, who died in a car accident in 1969. He wrote over 300 songs, mostly boleros (a Mexican-style rhythmic ballad), including the great hits Amor míoLuz de lunaSabrá DiosSeguiré mi Viaje and La MentiraAlthough the piece is musically very simple, it offers quite a few challenges when it comes to left hand transitions and avoiding string squeaks at all costs because these literally kill the music. The proper use of fijación, Perpendicular & Transversal Presentations as well as Levers will take care of these and help you make your playing smooth and easy. Visit the Masterclass
