From the album Adivinanza de la guitarra (track #20)
As part of a repertoire in which Barrios re-works folk themes, Viejo Romance alternates between major and minor keys interweaving two folk melodies. Their character is clear, particularly the second one which corresponds to a children’s folk song.
