Music For Steem | As A Star Cries | Cover | Como Llora Una Estrella

As a star cries, is a song composed by Antonio Carrillo in 1915, 105 years ago when, after leaving a party at the home of Don Teodosio Adames, he walked with a guitarist friend with whom he sat by candlelight in the northwest corner of Carrera 17 with Calle 30 in Barquisimeto, that small place became the scene of that play.

On another night, those who got used to serenades with friends. Antonio Carrillo arrived at the parish house of the Immaculate Conception temple and interpreted that beautiful melody with his bandolin and the then priest Carlos Borges asked him what the name of that piece was, he replied: I came so that you could give it a name, the parish priest he put "As a star cries."

The piece did not stop being interpreted and even recorded, it remained then a melodic and instrumental piece. Time passed and Arnoldo Vivas Toledo was the first to give color to that work, his poetry captivated Carrillo and they decided to record that piece.

With the passage of time the work has seven different lyrics known so far, but the most popular of all is the version by Arnoldo Vivas T.
