The Complete Works of Agustin Barrios Mangore, Vol. 2
Mel Bay
When I first heard this prelude in high school, I wanted to learn it instantly, with its gorgeously despairing chordal arpeggios. Unfortunately, it is much harder then it sounds, with many of the chords twisting the fingers into knots and bringing plenty of hand exhaustion. There are also a couple measures with no good way to hold the tones and keep the smooth texture. There is also a mistake in this version, on the second system, last measure, where the Bbs should be Cs.
