Llobet

El Noi De La Mare

Taught by renowned guitarist 

Thomas Viloteau

“El Noi de la Mare” is a Catalan folk song arranged by Miguel Llobet. The title translates to “the son of the mother”, referring to Mother Mary and the newborn baby Jesus within the Catholic tradition of Christmas. This song is usually set for choir, however there are many different possible ways to arrange it. This piece, as Thomas explains, is all about details. He covers every fingering very closely, explaining his reasoning and dissecting every muscle movement. We hope your practice sessions benefit from this very thorough and beginner-friendly lesson!
