Watch Andrés Segovia in portrait - The Song of the Guitar

This is a tribute to Andrés Segovia by Christopher Nupen, who knew him well for more than 25 years. It is shot in the Palaces of the Alhambra and in Granada, where Segovia spent his childhood and where he "opened his eyes to beauty and the Lord put the seed of music in his soul". He often described the Alhambra as the Leitmotif of his life. And so the setting is as legitimate as it is glorious.

Andrés Segovia in portrait - The Song of the Guitar is a 1977 documentary with a runtime of 48 minutes.
