Critique Required Beneath the willow tree

No, I don't, but I do play lots of music by Weiss. There is a funny story with that Baletto - it was actually written by a Mexican called Ponce. It was an in-joke with Segovia. Neither of them had heard music by the real Weiss, and Segovia wanted some baroque music for his programme. So, the Baletto became "Ponce's Secret Weiss" - so to speak. The ruse lasted for many years, until people started playing music by the real Weiss...very different, but also very beautiful.
