Francisco Tárrega: Preludes - Collection Francisco Tárrega was one of the most important Spanish guitar players and teachers in his time. Moreover he is said to be the father of the modern guitar technic. Strange enough that he is almost unknown by most non-guitar players. Tárrega wrote his guitar pieces almost at the same time as Scott Joplin composed his famous ragtimes like "The Entertainer". This is the whole collection of his preludes.
