Agustin Barrios Mangore (1885-1944) – The complete works of Barrios for guitar are available from this excellent edition by Rico Stover. It’s such a great collection that I have little to add and so haven’t made my own versions for the site. I highly recommend that anyone interested in Barrios get this edition even if you work off another score because this is pretty much the definitive edition. Plus, the fingering is pretty solid overall. Although I might change the occasional fingering, it’s good enough that I don’t have much reason to make my own editions of Barrios. You can look inside the book on Amazon.

Publisher’s Promo Text (for Complete Vol.1-2)
The product of decades of scholarly investigation, Volume 1 contains 67 musical works by the virtuoso Paraguayan guitarist Agustin Barrios Mangore (1885-1944). This is the first edition of Barrios’ music based on all available sources: manuscripts, phonograph recordings and published editions (pre-1970s). Written in standard notation only, the two volumes of this definitive collection are illustrated with period photographs, concert programs and Barrios’ own drawings. 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.
