Heitor Villa-Lobos (March 5, 1887 – November 17, 1959) was a Brazilian composer, conductor, cellist, and classical guitarist, described as "the single most significant creative figure in 20th-century Brazilian art music". Villa-Lobos has become the best-known South American composer of all time. A prolific composer, he wrote numerous orchestral, chamber, instrumental and vocal works, totaling over 2000 works by his death in 1959. His music was influenced by both Brazilian folk music and by stylistic elements from the European classical tradition, as exemplified by his Bachianas Brasileiras and his Chôros..

Joaquín Turina (9 December 1882 – 14 January 1949) was a Spanish composer of classical music. He was born in Seville, then lived in Paris (1905-14) where he took composition lessons from Vincent d'Indy and studied the piano under Moritz Moszkowski. Along with Manuel de Falla, he returned to Madrid in 1914, working as a composer, teacher and critic. His works include the operas Margot (1914) and Jardín de Oriente (1923), the Danzas fantásticas (1919), La oración del torero, chamber music, piano works, guitar pieces and songs. Much of his work shows the influence of traditional Andalusian music.

Manuel María Ponce Cuéllar (8 December 1882 – 24 April 1948) was a Mexican composer. His work as a composer, music educator and scholar of Mexican music connected the concert scene with a mostly forgotten tradition of popular song and Mexican folklore. Many of his compositions are strongly influenced by the harmonies and form of traditional songs. Ponce wrote music for solo instruments, chamber ensembles, and orchestra. His guitar music is a core part of the instrument's repertory. Ponce's guitar concerto, Concierto del sur, is dedicated to his long-time friend and guitar virtuoso Andrés Segovia.
