Choro da Saudade by Agustin Barrios Mangore
One of Barrios most outstanding pieces. It was written around 1929 in Brasil, or perhaps earlier. The choro is a Brazilian popular music style originated in the 19th century. The word choro translates as "cry" or "lament". However, the music is generally upbeat and happy.
This Choro da Saudade is an exception, its name means "nostalgic choro". Barrios was aware of this irony.
