Classical guitarist Xavier Jara Plays Prelude in A Minor by Agustin Barrios Mangore (1885-1944). This comes via Partita Studio in Seoul, Korea on their YouTube and played on a Viuda de Manuel Ramirez guitar. Beautiful playing by Xavier Jara with some very graceful phrasing and shaping of the lines.
