Venezuela Alegre: The music of Carlos Atilano - Gregg Nestor - Guitar
Available on Apple Music/iTunes
Carlos Atilano’s guitar pieces almost invariably have their roots in the folklore of Venezuela. He proudly says: “All the pieces that I have written were inspired by pure love for my native land. Being away from Venezuela brings in me that nostalgia which comes from longing for my homeland, its music, its places and the aroma of the tropics.”
