Chants d'Espagne is a suite of pieces for the piano by Isaac Albéniz, (given the opus number op. 232) originally published in 1892. The Prelude is also known under the title Asturias (Leyenda), a title given to it when it was incorporated into an extended version of Albéniz's Suite española, (two years after the composer's death).

It is probably more famous today in one of its guitar arrangements. Many have attributed the first transcription for guitar to Francisco Tárrega who put it in its most recognizable key, E minor; it was subsequently made popular by Andrés Segovia. The theme, or versions of it, is often used in film music and popular music. - Wikipedia

Francisco Tárrega is indeed a guitarist that knows symphony of the keys. He makes the deviations that give the peculiar unique resonance that makes an impact that is sensational. There definitely is a unison in the vibration of the strings when the two guitars are in simultaneous play. This is indeed a master stroke from the music maestro.
