Momento No.1

Solo Guitar

Standard tuning.

5 mins

I finished composing this piece in 2016 and revised it in 2020 by adding a coda. It is the first piece I wrote for guitar and one of the first in which I used improvisation as part of the creative process. The piece that most influenced me in writing it was Suite Compostelana by Federico Mompou.

It’s called Momento 1 because that’s literally how it began—in an intimate and somewhat meditative moment of exploration with the guitar.
