Un día de noviembre (A day in November) by Leo Brouwer.
According to Brouwer: "I wrote 'Un Dia de Noviembre' in 1967 for a black-and-white film made by Humberto Solaz. (The film, also called Un dia de Noviembre is actually dated 1972, Brouwer published the Solo Guitar arrangement with Chester Music later in 2000 but the publisher record the composed date as 1972) This theme, with its simple, sentimental character is for the young heroine (Eslinda Núñez as shown in the video) of the film." (In the original version, the guitar was accompanied by flute, bass and percussion.) There are a few editions of this lovely guitar tune: one by, of course, Brouwer himself with Chester Music, the other by his old friend, duet partner, Jesus Ortegas. While Brouwer himself admitted that there are mistakes in the Chester edition, Ortega's edition is also with wrong notes. Luckily, Brouwer recorded this piece with BBC3 in the 80s. This recording might not be his best. (Brouwer injured his hand in the early 80s.) We can still get the tempi, melody, chords that the composer truly want. In this video, I choose to follow Brouwer's recording as close as possible.

Eslinda Núñez 主演的Un Dia de Noviembre 1972 (11月某日, 是古巴革命電影導演Humberto Solás, 繼成名作Lucia 1968的電影) 古巴革命成功後, 20出頭的古巴作曲家Leo Brouwer曾短暫的在1960-1961於美國Hartford與Julliard學作曲, 並在美國取得教職! 但他選擇回到古巴, 成為古巴最重要的文化人, 1960年代他任職欣欣向榮的古巴電影藝術工業部音樂組的Director. 與Humberto Solás合作許多作品中, 為Un Dia de Noviembre所寫的主題曲, 改編成吉他獨奏曲也叫Un Dia de Noviembre, 其簡單淒美的旋律很快就成為吉他的"名曲" (芭樂曲), 曲子雖然簡單但卻至少有兩個版本: 1. Brouwer自己多年後在2000年 Chester Music出版的版本, 2. Brouwer老友Ortega的版本, 根據Brouwer自己的描述, 此時的他處於所謂的前衛主義時期, 許多不合心裡所想作品寫了後大概就遺棄了, 當然他身邊的好友可能就不是這麼想, 往往會保留一些手稿等待之後出版, 此曲長久以來存在Ortega的版本可能就是這個原因 (我大膽的假設), 但與其他Brouwer作品一樣, 出版的版本有錯誤(根據Brouwer所指出), 最明顯的就是B段(A大調)Fmajor7之後是GAGA, 而不是BABA, 可惜Ortega 的版本也有幾個可以斟酌的地方, Brouwer自己在BBC3 1983年的影片中也有他自己的演奏版, 考慮這時他的手已有演奏職業傷害的情形, (Brouwer在1980年代初期起
