As previously announced, the next issue of The Guitar Review(No. 19) was to be devoted entirely to the art of Flamenco and allits aspects, particularly as they are related to the guitar. However,as our research progresses, we begin to realize that a subject sovast and controversial requires a great deal of study and prepara-tion, before a truly comprehensive issue can be produced. In fact,in order to do full justice to the matter, it may be necessary toproduce two issues on Flamenco.

Our next issue, therefore, will be an all-Brazilian number. It is inpreparation now, and will appear sometime in the late Fall. Wehave already received a number of original compositions from out-standing Brazilian composers, illustrating folk-lore as well asmod-ern Brazilian music. The names of Villa-Lobos, F. Mignone,Guarnieri, Valdemar Henrique, and Brasilio Itiberê speak forthemselves.

Returning to the subject of Flamenco, V. Bobri, Co-Editor of TheGuitar Review, is participating actively in extensive research. Hewill make a trip to Spain, the very home of Flamenco. With gen-erous help from Andrés Segovia, Emilio Pujol, and ProfessorWalter Starkie, Mr. Bobri will seek out thecantaores,thetocaores;he will hear their music, photograph them, sketch them, interviewthem, and capture the flavor of their life, first-hand. In short, Mr.Bobri will have the rare opportunity to penetrate the veryessenceof Spanish gypsy life-a life jealously guarded and hopelessly in-accessible to the casual tourist.
