Mis Amigos is a piano suite composed by the Argentine composer Carlos Guastavino. The suite was composed in 1956 and premiered in Buenos Aires the same year. The suite consists of four movements, each of which is dedicated to one of Guastavino's friends. The first movement, "A Luis Cluzeau Mortet," is a lively and rhythmic piece that showcases Guastavino's skill at creating catchy melodies. The second movement, "A Eduardo Falú," is a slower, more contemplative piece that features a beautiful melody played over a simple accompaniment. The third movement, "A Jaime Dávalos," is a lively and energetic piece that features a driving rhythm and a catchy melody. The final movement, "A Atahualpa Yupanqui," is a slower, more introspective piece that features a haunting melody played over a simple accompaniment. Overall, Mis Amigos is a beautiful and engaging piano suite that showcases Guastavino's skill at creating memorable melodies and evocative harmonies. The suite is a testament to the composer's ability to capture the essence of his friends in music, and it remains a beloved work in the piano repertoire.
