ISBN 9780786624799. Classic. 8.75x11.75 inches.
The product of decades of scholarly investigation, Volume 1 contains 67 musical works by the virtuoso Paraguayan guitarist Agustin Barrios Mangore (1885-1944).

The legacy of Barrios is one of the most important and outstanding contributions ever made to the classic guitar, and it is with great pride that Mel Bay Publications offers here for the first time in one edition the collected works of Agustin Barrios Mangore.
