My Choice 9 Nana Mouskouri: La Paloma

La Paloma is a popular song and has been produced and reinterpreted in diverse cultures, settings, arrangements, and recordings over the last 140 years. The song was composed and written by Spanish composer Sebastian Yradier in 1863 after he visited Cuba just two years before he died in Spain in obscurity, never to learn how popular his song would become. This version is beautifully interpreted by Nana Mouskouri. br, br,
