As a kid, I fell in love with "La Gatta Cenerentola" , the famous Italian theatre show based on the original Cinderella story by G.Basile and whose soundtrack this villanella was a part of. This is a transcription of the theme as played by a solo guitar at the end of the show and it's available on my website at www.samanthacwells.com/transcriptions. Recorded outdoors, with the wind sneaking in. La " Villanella di Cenerentola", come accennata alla chitarra a chiusura dello spettacolo "La Gatta Cenerentola" di Roberto De Simone. Trascrizione disponibile sul mio website.

To Maestro Emanuele Torrente, my classical guitar and music teacher of many years, whose ideas on this piece I've incorporated. Thanks for watching!

Recently I’ve had the pleasure to play for a creative young couple who, wishing to share some playful elements of their relationship during their wedding ceremony, specifically their love for Lego and Harry Potter, did so by completing the building of a really cool Lego Hogwarts model! Music of choice? An equally playful blend of Estudio 6 by Fernando Sor and our favorite wizard’s theme by John Williams. I had so much fun playing this little combo I decided to record it. This is a little highlight. Enjoy!
