In 1961, Spanish composer Joaquín Rodrigo's piece Invocación y Danza, dedicated to Alirio Díaz, won the First Prize at the Coupe International de Guitare awarded by the Office de Radiodiffusion-Télévision Française (ORTF). Three years later, he progressed to become the assistant and substitute to Segovia, and started performing in some of the most prestigious concert halls of Europe. There he impressed Segovia greatly with his flawless technique and extensive repertoire. In 1951 he went to Accademia Musicale Chigiana of Siena ( Italy), to study with Andrés Segovia. That same year he performed his first guitar concert in Europe. In 1950, the Venezuelan government awarded him a scholarship to continue his guitar studies in Madrid under Regino Sainz de la Maza. He also studied English before going to Caracas in 1945 to study the guitar at the Escuela Superior de Musica José Ángel Lamas under Raul Borges. He later went to Trujillo in the Venezuelan Andes and studied saxophone and clarinet under Laudelino Mejías while working as a typesetter in a newspaper. At age 16 he ran away from home to Carora, where he sought better schooling. From childhood he showed a great interest in music. Selections arranged Container of: Pujol, Emilio, 1886-1980.
