Arabescos by Agustin Barrios Mangore

Monday, March 2, 2009

This is a legato study, also known as Study No. 4. This is maybe one of his reputed Eleven Concert Studies, of which only some are known.

I'm not sure where the name came from. Arabescos is the spanish word for arabesques, a genre of classical piano music. The most popular being by Debussy and Schumann. Barrios played transcriptions of Schumann's works, so, maybe he is an influence.
