Following the death of the guitarist Manuel Babiloni, Emili Mallol composed this short piece for solo guitar in his memory. In the composer’s words, ‘In memoriam Manolo Babiloni arises from the need to musically express the pain that the news of the sudden death of my dear friend caused me’.

And so it is, the idea of pain and sadness permeates the entire work. Every guitarist will find in In memoriam a piece through which to express those difficult and intense emotions that dwell within us after experiencing something tragic.
