I have started a flute and guitar duo. We both like Latin music. I don't have a lot of pieces for flute and guitar. I can do some transposition, but I would rather just read the music and not have to do the extra work. Does anyone have any recommendations for any good books or pieces?

I also like Spanish music from Spain. We might consider doing some of that style if we can get our hands on the music.

Thanks

I suggest you give a try to Piazzola's Histoire du Tango. (history of tango)

<Added>

Many versions in youtube, this one of "Cafe 1930" (one of the six parts of the suite) is not the one I like most, too slow and with little Tango spirit, but still an example, easier to play.

You can buy a very good version by William Bennett (Flute), Simon Wynberg (Guitar) at classical.com
Only 0.89 each piece....

Sorry, the suite has only four parts, not six.

The score is also widely available to buy. I bought it cheap a few months ago, but cannot recall where.
In this place you can download them, but I do not know if these files are legal. Probably not.
