	Manuel Maria Ponce - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Manuel Maria Ponce (8 December 1882 – 24 April 1948) was a distinguished Mexican composer from the early XXth Century.
		In his honor there is a board of recognition by the state of Aguascalientes in the base of the column of The Exedra, next to the fountain from a spring dedicated to this musical poet, in his childhood and young adult City of Aguascalientes, where he first was introduced to the music studies.
		Ponce's guitar music is a core part of the instrument's repertory, the best-known works being Variations and Fugue on 'La Folia' (1929) and Sonatina meridional (1939).

		Manuel Maria Ponce was born in a small provincial Mexican town in 1882, to modestly prosperous parents.
		It was a meeting with the famous guitarist, Andres Segovia, in 1923 that persuaded Ponce to write for the instrument, though the composer had no detailed knowledge of the instrument.
		This resulted in a series of works from Ponce that were full of delightful melodies, but which were totally out of keeping with his own time.

		Hardly known to non-Mexican audiences, most of the composers included in this recording have enjoyed a special place in the musical heart of many generations.
		Pieces such as Adios by Carrasco, Estrellita by Ponce -perhaps the most widely known Mexican song of its time- or Así es mi tierra, by Igancio González Esperón (better known as Tata Nacho) have long been recognised by different generations as landmarks of Mexican popular music.
		If one were to promote a survey regarding Mexican music, perhaps no other melodies would gain such a wide consensus, for they seem to represent an essence of what is Mexican not so commonly found.

		Suddenly, there was a new generation of composers who could interpret Spain to the outside world in its own idiom: Isaac Albéniz (1860-1909), Enrique Granados (1967-1916), and Manuel de Falla (1876-1946).
		The guitars which I have always given the preference are those of Alonzo of Madrid, Pages and Benediz of Cadiz, Joseph and Manuel Martinez of Malaga, or Rada, successor and scholar of the latter, and those of M. Lacote of Paris.
		Also at the instigation of Segovia, Manuel Ponce of Mexico, Joaquim Rodrigo of Spain and Alexander Tansman of Poland have written for the guitar.
