Gloria al Niño Ricardo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Gloria al Niño Ricardo" is a flamenco guitar composition composed by Paco de Lucía which features on his 1987 album Siroco.^[1] The piece is dedicated to Niño Ricardo who was de Lucia's "first hero" of the guitar.^[2]^[3] The piece is a soleá and is known for its technically demanding passages. It is played in the key of C major, but a significant part of the composition features the phrygian E and a E 7 flat 9 chord and it features elaborate tremolo picking at the beginning.^[1]^[4] However, when performing it live, Lucia often played it in the key of D flat major with a capo on the first fret.
