Evert Taube : Fragancia (version for guitar by Gunnar Hansson) . Göran Söllscher guitar

Evert Taube (1890-1976) was a Swedish,what we would nowadays call,singer songwriter. Enormously popular in my country during his lifetime. Much thanks to his son Sven-Bertil Taubes recording, Fragancia became one of his most beloved songs. Gunnar Hansson is a Swedish guitarist and teacher who has raised generations of players,from young children up to students at Malmö Academy of Music where I had the pleasure to study teaching methodology for him in the mid 1970:s. I’m only one of many,many guitarists who are forever greatful for Gunnars life’s work in the service of the guitar. I play an 11-str alto guitar made by Georg Bolin in 1974
