This is one of the most beautiful guitar related books ever published. It took Carlos Salcedo over ten years to compile and edit. A truly magnificent limited-edition art-book with impressive and accurate text. Forewords bychard Stover, Luz Maria Bobadilla, Sila Godoy, the director of the Cabildo Museum in Paraguay, Margarita Morselli, the prologue and text is by the noted Agustin Barrios-Mangore scholar Carlos Salcedo Centurion. The book's text is in English and Spanish. It contains around 400 Barrios-related images, nearly 100 photos of Agustin Barrios, as well as photos of a hundred original Barrios scores, original correspondence, programmes, discography and guitars. `El Inalcanzable` is how Heitor Villa-Lobos once described Barrios' talent as a virtuoso classical guitarist - and is a fitting title for this very special book. This book is invaluable for anyone interested in the music of Barrios - and a 'must-have' collector's edition for every lover of the classical guitar. So respectful was Heitor Villa Lobos, that he could only find these words to describe the talent of Agustn Barrios Mangore. "El Inalcanzable" contains the most complete biography ever written about the Paraguayan genius of the guitar who went on tour tour most of the Americas and Europe, while composing some of the most compelling music ever written for the guitar. Including many original compositions never seen in public, this book is a colaboration between the Cabildo Museun in Asuncion Paraguay, and the owner of the largest private collection of Barrios artifacts. Containing ovr 400 images, including original photos, letters, and musical scores, this book is a must for any serious student of the guitar. For lovers of the instrument, the book includes a section on the guitars of Barrios, who was known to play the work of the greatest makers of his epoch, including Jose Ramirez I, Enrique Garcia, Fransisco Simplicio, Enrique Sanfeliu, Domingo Esteso, and Ricardo Sanchis Nacher. Beautifully photographed, with text in English/Spanish.
