Carlos Paredes - Guitarra Portuguesa (1967)

The first time I listened to Carlos Paredes' music was on my local cultural radio. Before the music started playing the radio announcer started talking about Carlos Paredes' family and how his father introduced him to the Portuguese guitar and was his mentor. Which made me think about how powerful and transcendent music can be, just to think that an instrument and its very particular music is being passed down generation to generation made me feel very pleased and even moved, what's even more enchanting about this is that it's rare to talk about Carlos Paredes without mentioning his father. He even said :
"When I die, my guitar also dies.
My father used to say that, when he died, he would like that his guitar would be broken and buried with him.
I would like to do the same. If I have to die.”
