It’s Barrios’ Birthday! Watch Two of His Pieces Played By Gabriel Bianco and Tatyana Ryzhkova

Boy, would Agustin Barrios be surprised that folks all over the world love and obsess over his music 134 years after his birth in Paraguay on May 5, 1885. But we do, and make no apologies for it, because what an incredible body of work! To celebrate, here are videos of two of his best-known works—La Catedral and Julia Florida—played, respectively—by Gabriel Bianco (France) and Tatyana Ryzhkova (Belarus); both wonderful interpretations. —Blair Jackson
