Guitar music is one of the strengths of the Latin American repertoire. Composers from all countries built on the strong traditions inherited from Europe and developed and transformed guitar music in Latin America. Fiesta pays another visit to the guitar treasures of the Americas with composers Leo Brouwer, Maximo Diego Pujol, and Antonio Lauro.
