In the music of Agustin Barrios Mangore we find truly inspired creativity combined with a total technical dominio of the guitar's harmonic capabilities. His knowledge of harmonic science enabled hi to compose in several styles: baroque classic romantic and descriptive. He composed preludes studies suites waltzes mazurkas taratellas and romanzas as well as many onomatopoetic works describing physical objects or historical/cultural themes. One can appreciate in Barrios Mangore a logical expansion of techniques defined by masters such as Sor and Tarrega carried to an even higher level of expressiveness and technical expertise. The legacy of his genius is a priceless onefor all lovers of the guitar. Richard Stover

Agustin Pio Barrios Ferreyra, a Paraguayan composer and guitarist, is nowadays known as the creator of the Mangorean or Indo-American school of the Guitar. ?The name, Mangoré, was adopted in honor of the great chieftain Mangoré, an important personage of the Paraguayan jungles?.Mangoré used for his works popular folkloristic themes of South America as well as sounds of nature (?the still waters of [?] the Amazon?, ?the song of the birds?). But Magnoré also was inspired by European music: He composed gavottes, minuets and waltzes: ?It was in J.S.Bach where Barrios discovered the source of his universality [?]?.Admired by many but despised by more was his way of stringing his guitar: ?[?] the way he attacked the strings with the fingers sideward, with very little use of the fingernails?. He also invented some kind of a muffler: He put ?small balls of rubber on the Pirastro steel string?. Jesus Benites R. who collected Magnoré?s works for this edition says about him: ?Magnore is the genius of South America?. He was a strong influence for many composers and musicians, such as Heitor Villa-Lobos, Manuel Ponce and Andres Segovia.

A range of fabulous educational and concert guitar music by the UK's top guitar composers educators and performers.Rush originally started out as a study for the right hand thumb. The piece opens in five with a darting weaving bass melody and harmonic language similar to the Cuban feel of Leo Brouwer's first study. As the piece progresses I played around with some poly-rhythms and syncopations in 3/4 time with a Venezuelan flavour similar to the music of Antonio Lauro.The title Metropolis was created like many of my pieces retrospectively. It was suggested to me by Mark Eden and resonated with much of what I felt the piece conveyed essentially the non-stop hustle and bustle of a musical 'city' where influences combine from many different ages and musical cultures. The initial ideas for the piece came from trying to formulate a study for the left hand where the 4th finger jumps from the first string to the lower bass strings. As is often the case on finishing the piece I now hear many things which although not used consciously have emerged in the music to remind me of music I have listened to or studied in the past.At various points a musical quote taken from the end of the first movement of La Catedral by the Paraguayan guitarist and composer Agustin Barrios Mangore appears which I have syncopated and used as a musical junction with the music taking a different direction each time it appears.Towards the end of the piece the performer combines left hand hammered chords with right hand finger clicks and tamboura creating a visual juggling effect when performed. Something resembling the sound of a siren can then be discerned before the piece moves into the closing E major section. I did most of the work for the final version of this piece in the autumn of 2005 just after the birth of my second daughter!I think the music reflects something of the pace of my life around then!Birds Flew Over The Spire is a short lyrical piece which was also
