I like all of his etudes and the way even the happy ones sing so sadly
(Mignone must have been desperately yearning for something), but I do
like the more down to earth, earthy Brazilianness of Gnattali more. I've
never heard any of them other than through my own late night finger
fumblings and stumblings though.
