Evocation by José Luis Merlin played by Bob Drury
Argentinian guitarist José Luis Merlin's 'Suite del Recuerdo' is an homage to the memory of many thousands of "disappeared ones" from the time of the military junta in Argentina. Text within the sheet music explains the significance of the music "This is an homage to memories, my memories. To the collective memories of my people living in nostalgia, tormented, anguished, happy and hopeful. Memories from the country, in San Luis, with all the smells and sounds from the country. It is like looking inside yourself in very profound silence. Memories of afternoons with grandparents, aunts and uncles, parents, brothers, sisters, cousins. All enjoying each other, sharing our feelings and playing guitar., sitting in the back yard drinking wine, under the vines. Lots of them are not here anymore. They are in my memories."
