Tarrega
I am currently a music major, guitar as my instrument. Tarrega definately embodies the soul that we should all try to put into our instruments. If you want some great intermediate pieces which are full of passion and heart, buy his works. Also, any one who plays the guitar must become familiar with his works if they ever expect to truly understand the instrument and its' full capability with reduced technicality.

A True Wizard On The Classical Guitar
Although I haven't bought this sheet music, I can tell you, Tarrega is basically Beethoven on the classical guitar. Tarrega's best known pieces, "Gran Vals" (nokia tune and Ionica Advert), "Minueto," "Pepita," "Vals en Re," "Pavana" are extremely hard to play. You have to be like David Russel or John Williams to play this absolute perfection. I find it a struggle to play even though I'm on grade 6, but some pieces are beyond Grade 8, prepare for a challenge. This is a minute to learn, a lifetime to master.
