Happy National Week of the Ocean!

I wanna share this beautiful watlz, “Over the Waves”, by mexican composer Juventino Rosas. Whenever my grandfather visited his grandma as a kid, she’d always put this waltz.

After he left Spain because of the Civil War in 1936 and came to Peru, the memory of the waltz and the ocean never went away and he passed this song down to my mother, and she did the same with me and my sister. Whenever I listen to this jewel, I can’t help but blink back a few tears: I miss him so much, even more right now, while typing this words.

Anyways, I hope you like it!

I’m listening to the first CD in a two-disc set of Jacques Brel that I got for Christmas, and I discovered that “La valse à mille temps” starts with a quotation of the first thirteen notes of Juventino Rosas’ “Sobre las Olas” (”Over the Waves”).  I’d heard “La valse à mille temps” before, but I only recently became familiar with “Over the Waves.”  It’s the piece in my piano book that I’d been learning and practicing for the last week or two.
