This is the prelude to suite by Santiago De Murzia (Murica)

Santiago de Murcia (25 July 1673 – 25 April 1739) was a Spanish guitarist and composer.

Until new research was published in 2008, few details about the life of Santiago de Murcia were known. However it is now known that he was born in Madrid and that his parents were Juan de Murcia and Magdalena Hernandez. He married Josefa Garcia in May 1695.[1]

In his printed collection of guitar music, Resumen de acompañar, Murcia describes himself as Master of Guitar to the Spanish Queen Maria Luisa of Savoy. She was the first wife of the first Bourbon king of Spain, Philip (Felipe) V, a grandson of Louis XIV of France who succeeded to the Spanish throne on the death of Carlos II in November 1700. The marriage took place by proxy in Turin on 11 September 1701. On 3 November the marriage was re-celebrated in Figueras in Catalunya. In April 1702, Felipe V left on a tour of his Italian possessions appointing Maria Luisa as regent in his absence. There is no reason to suppose that Murcia travelled with him to Naples, Italy, or met the composers Arcangelo Corelli and Alessandro Scarlatti. Maria Luisa arrived in Madrid on 30 June and Murcia is not likely to have been appointed as her Master of Guitar before this date. It is assumed that he held the post until her death in 1714. Antonio de Murcia was appointed instrument maker to the Queen in 1704..

La Catedral was written by Agustin Barrios Mangore

Agustín Pío Barrios was born in southern Paraguay on 5 May 1885, and died on 7 August 1944, in San Salvador, El Salvador. To many, Barrios was the greatest of all guitarist/composers. In view of this, it is curious that his music lay undiscovered and unappreciated for over three decades after his death. In the mid-1970s comprehensive editions of his music appeared, making it possible for guitarists of a younger generation to study his music, augmenting and complementing more traditional repertoire. The revival began in 1977 with a release by John Williams of an entire recording of music by Barrios, bringing overdue recognition to this forgotten Latin American guitarist. Today Barrios’ music is frequently performed by major concert artists and is appreciated by audiences worldwide.

This is my favoritest piece.

Bach wrote this as part of the 3 third Violin Partita BWV 1006.  

The version I play has some added counter melodies known as 1006a.  This version is most commonly played on guitar.  

I believe this piece reflects perfectly the creation of the universe.  Both the big bang theory and the biblical account.  It starts on a low E.  Then Bach arpeggiates the E chord.  Then we get E scales.  Then crazier scales.  Soon we moves to keys further away from E.  I believe each piece by Bach is itself a tiny universe.  Most of Bach's Fugues are as complex as our own universe.  I suppose all pieces of music are tiny worlds, but none resemble our own as much as Bach's music in my opinion.
