When I was a kid, I heard a girl play this at my brother's piano recital. I just remember thinking it was the most beautiful piece of music I've ever heard. This is my second time ever listening to this song.

My mom played this at home all the time when I was a kid; she was fabulous! She could have been a concert pianist but would never perform in front of people. I did get her to promise to play it for my wedding. Sadly, she developed advanced Parkinson's Disease and by the time I got married, she was completely unable to play. I so miss this piece of music. You play almost exactly the way she did and it brings back to be a flood of emotions and memories. Thank you so very much!

A beautiful woman playing beautiful music, thank you for sharing this with an old guy who grew up on this type of real music.

She’s playing a rhythmic melody on one hand and a melody that tells a story on the other. Beautiful haromony

I learned this in 1971 and loved every moment of practice it took to play it correctly. Due to disability I can no longer play but this has brought joy to my heart. Thank you for an outstanding performance.

Lecuona , Cuban mighty son . Beautiful music from this outstanding composer.

My mother was a very accomplished pianist as well. She'd played this as well as many other types of classical. I'd love to lay on the sofa & just relax, almost like in a trance, half asleep, listening to her. she stared teaching me when I was 4, Still don't know if I ever got as good as here. Boy, I sure miss it. Her version sounded like this as well. Bravo!

My father used to play this for my brothers & I on Saturday nights growing up. This cover is the most similar to his that I have yet to find. I’ve come back to this video many times over the past decade, it reminds me of home. Thank you Anat, perfección.

This reminds me of how my grandmother played it. Jeanne Vanyo, a popular concert pianist in NYC. She's almost 85 now, and I've heard her play this song countless times on my upright, and I never get tired of listening to it. Congratulationa, Anat. You are extremely talented.

A gifted pianist, may God bless her.

One of the very best renditions of Malaguena I've heard. Love it!

I have piano lessons, and the girl who goes before me plays this song every time I go to my class. I always tell my parents about the song and her and says it is amazing.

Vivi mi infancia en Guanabacoa,donde nacio Lecuona,he caminado por muchas partes y solo Wimbledon me recuerda su magia,pero hoy la he tenido en mi ser viendote volar Anat. uNve.

Maravilloso la ejecución, de una pieza de Ernesto Lecuona tan profunda, y su ejecución fue fantástica.......

Your timing is exquisite. It is plain that you are feeling this tune down in your bones. Well done!

Sometimes,words are not enough to express ones feelings. Bravo!!!!!!!

A valuable piece of music for a great performer. What pride you make me feel in my music and in Lecuona, one of our great Cuban musicians. Hug and Congratulations from Havana, Cuba 🇨🇺

Your interpretation of this often rendered music is beyond criticism. God bless and keep them coming. Loved it. don,sr.

Best rendition of Malaguena that I have heard. I have bookmarked this to remind me of the glory of Andalusia!

Piano woman I enjoy the way you seem to put your body and soul into this composition...and it doesn't hurt that I'm a great fan of Ernesto Lecuona!

My aunt, Katherine Tate, was a Julliard grad, played Carnagie Hall. She would ask us what we wanted her to play for us, and this was always what I wanted to hear. I love your playing, your fluid motion, and your obvious enjoyment of the piece. Thank you.

I personally appreciate the way you put your heart and soul into your music, It has a definite and much needed Ladies Touch, GOD BLESS YOU Ma'am. You allow this soul to sleep and travel. thank you for that.

The methodology with which she gently, but firmly caresses and strikes the notes makes the piano fall in love with her. ✌️♥️👏👍

One of the best interpretations I've ever heard of this demanding piece. So fiery and passionate. I love it. Thank you.

The music of Ernesto Lecuona is beautiful, but you add a beauty to it that can only be described as inspired by the angels. I love your piano playing.

"GREATLY PERFORMED"!!!, Congrats!!!, THIS IS THE " TRUE ORIGINAL COMPOSITIONN"!!!, by CUBAN MASTER, ""ERNESTO LECUONA"", born 1890s, Died sometime 1990s, or Late 80s, Very Close to 100YrsOld.,

I've been watching a lot of guitarists playing this piece, constantly amazed by the skill required to play it. But none of those compares to this rendition, it moved me beyond words. Excellent and astounding performance!!

ALOHA dear Anat!!!! A very splendid performance!!!! A very magnificent piece!!!! I DO NOT think that there are very many other pianists who play as well as you do!!!! My sincerest thanks!!!! I consider Ernesto Lecuona as one of the greatest composers!!!!

The more I watch this video the more I appreciate you Anat, you are an inspiration to all who could ever dream of being half as talented as you. Thank you for posting these video's and please continue to play the piano, a magical instrument that you have mastered on all levels.

My mom used to play this at home. This brings back such beautiful memories ❤️☺️

What a beautiful piece of music. Kudos to the composer and the artist.

Ma'am I'm a retired Soldato with a hard heart but your music makes my eyes wet, Thank you for breaking through my shell into my tortured soul. God Bless you and your family Ma'am.

Sounds fantastic Thanks for this video Congratulations

It is so nice. I have lost my life for music because i was a dreamer. I do not regret it because it has opened doors to other things that I could not imagine before. Responsibility above all. Respect also, for myself and as a consequence for others.

This was my favorite piece of music to play on the piano. It’s quite difficult with lots of key changes and mood changes, but it was worth all the practicing to learn it. It helped that I was a phenomenal typist so could move fingers quickly. Love this piece. She’s quite accomplished! Bravo

So many memories being amazed and watching my mom play this! More so as I got older. Too bad I didn't have patience for piano lessons. LOVE!!

My mother's college graduation recital piece, 1943, as a piano major. I thought I might try to learn it in her memory. But I don't think I could do a better job than you, Ms. Navarro. I'm not sure anyone could. Bravo.

My mother is Lisa Elaine Beach Gimber and she's amazing, played this throughout my childhood ♥

Spectacular!!!

La malagueña, que cosa. Para un malagueño como yo, esto es de lo más grande en música.

Amazing interpretation. Full of beauty and passion. How inspiring is this for young pianists.

:) . Very nice .. I Loved to Play this ... back When .. in about 1986 ....... sucks I can't Play anything anymore .. But this Makes Me Smile .. and Remember the Past ... :D

Música perfecta del Gran Lecuona. Bella interpretación! Bella Pianista!

I listen to Anat's version like twice a week. I love the way she carries out the solo. You're fierce!

As I listen to this over and over, I realize just how incredible your timing is! It's as if you were able to count the vibrations of the strings! You have truly mastered this piece! My utmost praise!

Excellent performance without a question! Everything is so solid in your interpratation. You know exactly what you want to bring out of the notes. Great technique, awsome sentimentality and power at the same time. I am officially a fan!

I enjoyed the passion, joy and ability that you captured with your skill. Well done. 😊

Amazing pianist, and a great choice in music.

Very Expressive! I like it alot. I can sense the passion of the latin landscape. The soul of the people of 'revolution'

Thank you for another blissful night sweet dreams and travels Ma'am. Your music calms my troubled soul, Thank you again Ma'am

Piano woman you are sooo talented. Beautifully played. And not nearly enough applause.

One of the best performances of Malaguena I've ever heard. Perfect timing---- amazing style. You are a truly gifted pianist.

Brava. Cuore, passione, arte e bravura. Complimenti.

A beautiful performance, and so full of feeling and passion that I jumped up and shouted Olé even though there was no one in the room to hear me say it.

Pay no attention to other comments! I played this when I was young, and it has defined my life. You are a master. That is the last word..

Piano girl, that was wonderful. I used to play till high school then got busy with life although I have though of getting a piano again at age 73. I loved the boogie s when I was a kid

Wonderful to listen and just as wonderful to watch you play! Loved this!

My mom worked on this piece often. I have great memories of her!

Music is about expressing feelings and passion, allow me to say you have a very strong passion and feelings and you have expressed them in a fabulous way, this video deserves rated as 5 starts !! Beginner Flamenco Guitarist

Really nice you are playing with all your heart

You are Genius 👈 🌹🌹🌹❤❤❤❤❤💃

Hey there, often check your channel to here new songs and such. You have real talent. Good to see with this video you're starting to get the viewcount and compliments you deserve. Best of luck with it...

Malaguena's music will remain the sad voice coming from the depths of tortured hearts, then it will continue to scream in order to declare its wounds over the years that it will continue to receive the pain of wounds and forever....🌍

WOW! Now THAT's the way it should be played. Too many people rush through it to be "showy".....WONDERFUL! THANK YO U!

Wow! Her fingers are moving impossibly fast and it must have taken FOREVER to learn. She puts the right amount of drama, passion and she's really into the music . I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!

She is such a great pianist ,with a spirited and soulful interpretation best I ever heard.. Bravo !

Wow! Ella toca el piano muyyyyy bien! Maravillosa! Me encanta esta pieza! Yo quiero aprenderla!

BRAVISSIMA !!!! VIVA ESPAÑA Y VIVA CUBA-ESPAÑOLA !!!

I've never heard this played with the piano but she does a very nice job of it. Incredible piece. Thank you.

FANTASTIC ANAT FEELS THE MUSIC.

Ya toda se ha dicho, felicitaciones. ¡Que pasión!

Wow My breath was takin away...heart beating you captured passion in your performance!

In the Soviet Union, this piece was the main theme in a TV Spanish lesson. This was my first “touch” with the Spanish culture at the age of 5 or 6 and this masterpiece is forever associated with Spain. Beautiful performance, I thank you very much for the memories!

My Dad plays this piece and I love to hear him play it... I never tire of it. Of course your's is mastered without a flaw! Very nice!!!

Very imaginative, creative; gives Lecuono a run for his money. Hope you have a CD some where or MP3.

Smile...that's almost how I think it sounds when I play it until I hear it recorded...grin. Seriously, I've love this number over the years and still love to hear it played like this! Awesome indeed!!

Nr. 1 Music 👌💖🥇🏆

Jugué malagueña una vez en el piano y estoy impresionado por su actuación les doy un arco mi bella dama (aplaudir, aplaudir, aplaudir)

This brings back memories. I used to play this piece many years ago, but never got to perform it in front of an audience. I am glad to hear it being performed so intensely and beautifully. Well done !
