NEW PUBLICATION!

Agustín Barrios Mangoré

NEW PUBLICATION! I finally published a study score of Agustín Barrios Mangoré’s tremolo masterpiece Un Sueño en la Floresta. I love a compact score! I’ve reduced what editors usually publish in editions of 12+ pages to 4. It is easier to see structure, to manage page turns, and to mark sections for work. There are detailed fingerings for the left hand, optional fingerings, and smaller indications about barring and guide fingers. I have found that these fingerings work best for me and my students. This edition is available through the Six String Journal Payhip store.

But the last two I came across in Abel Carlevaro’s hand-written notes to himself in one of his editions of Agustín Barrios Mangoré’s Una limosna por el amor de Diós. Below you’ll find links to Mastering Tremolo and a NEW study score of Barrios’s Una limosna. Hope it helps.
