Re: Let's Play: Spanish Music!
Dominic I have a question : does music from Ginastera, or Piazolla, tangos, etc do they count as Spanish music, or is there a concept of Hispanic music that is broader than music from Spain?

Re: Week THREE: Birthday Week!
lovely sensitive playing! Perhaps you might also try the no 12 prelude from the same opus, with similar broken chords or rolled chords that might be easier on small hands.
