"Malagueña", was written by Cuban composer Ernesto Lecuona (1896-1963) in 1928. It is the sixth movement of his "Suite Andalucia". As a composer and performer, his activities were influential throughout Latin America, Spain and the United States. Carlos Montoya adapted it for flamenco style guitar, and it was the title track on his 1961 live album. This recording was influential in the piece becoming a guitar standard, even though it was originally written for piano.
This version by American guitarist Michael Lucarelli is one of my favorites.
