4.0 out of 5 stars Segovia en la Calle Vuelo
Segovia is by far the best guitarist of our time. Durarte captures the Segovia spirit in its pages.

This book certainly has duende

2.0 out of 5 stars If you're looking to fill in your Segovia knowledge...
... this is a good book. But as a Segovia biography it's pretty sketchy.

Segovia's own biography of his early years is only slightly better.

2.0 out of 5 stars As I knew Him, January 17, 2011

This review is from: Andrés Segovia: As I Knew Him (Paperback)
I found this book very disappointing. It was more "name dropping" on the author's part than any serious attempt to capture or reflect the man or the "spirit" of Segovia or his work. If Duarte had been a Talk Show rather than corrupting the medium of serious biography, he would have spent his entire 15 minutes plugging his own work with a very minor nod to the greatest guitarist of all time. Shame on you Mr. Duarte.
