MEDAL FROM THE ANDRÉS SEGOVIA FOUNDATION. Last Friday, November 7th, I had the honor of receiving Andrés Segovia’s Foundation Medal on behalf of my great-granduncle Manuel Ramírez, my father José Ramírez III and my brother José Ramírez IV for the honor it has been for them, as well as for all of us, that Andrés Segovia has been using and valuing the guitars they have been constructing. My nephews Cristina and José Enrique Ramírez came with me to this event representing the future of our guitarrería as its fifth generation. One more time, Mr Alberto López Poveda, was able to astonish me with his energy and his unbreakable will for doing things well, because he makes them with his heart…How could it be any other way? So, aged 99, he walked the stage to talk about my family, one by one, as a preamble of the medal ceremony. This tribute was really moving for me, especially as it came from someone I admire because of his integrity, generosity and his profound loyalty to his friend Andrés Segovia.
