I’ve been checking out the music of Augustin Barrios Mangore.

Interesting guy..

It’s always interesting to weigh up different recorded versions of music.

Here’s some better collections of his stuff (and I’m sure there are others):

I thinl Fischman pretty much nailed it, but if you like classical guitar, you should also check out some of the flamenco guitarists such as Paco de Lucia or Vicente Amigo. I think you'd really enjoy.

Quite a good intro would be:

Ciudad De Las Ideas by Vicente Amigo

Love it. Listening. Playing. All eras.

It's not particularly original to say so, but my favorite piece remains Rodrigo's Concierto de Aranjuez. I am a big fan of the guitar quintets of Luigi Boccherini. I also enjoy Tarrega, Sor, and Albeniz.

My favorite player is Christopher Parkening, although I also love Segovia, Pepe Romero, (the other) John Williams, Kazuhito Yamashita, Sharon Isbin, and of course, Julian Bream. And laugh if you may, but most people have no idea that the cootchie cootchie girl, Charo, plays a mean classical guitar herself (she studied under Segovia).

my favorite, though strictly speaking, it's not a classical guitar.... rather quite related Ronroco by Gustavo Santaolalla

To answer your question directly, my last piece I posted is the only thing I'd really search out to purposely listen to from Joaquín Rodrigo, but did enjoy some lute music from the early music period. If you are open to that, there's millions of choices there.

Dolcissima Et Amorosa: The Lute Music O...igel North

This was pretty cool if lute and guitar can be buddies.

Same with this from Vivaldi:

And Dowland:

Never heard this before, but the first track was legit:

Also this is a must: (at about 30 seconds)
