Introduction

Milonga is a gentle and lilting piece from the South American composer and doctor - Jorge Cardoso. The piece is written in the key of D minor and it employs clever use of open strings and syncopation to bring the piece alive and to lend that wonderful South American flavour to the overall feel of the piece.

Tips

  • Look for opportunities to use pivots, guide fingers, and preparation in the left hand
  • Deconstruct the right hand into several recurring patterns and master those
  • Accent certain syncopated beats in the bass to provide rhythmic drive and punctuation
