- Not much is known about Santiago De Murcia's (1673-1739) life. In his work Resumen de acompañar la parte con la guitarra, he writes that he is 'el maestro de guitarra' of the Spanish queen María Luisa de Saboya (wife of Philip V). Presumably he was so from 1702 to 1714. Original works by him have turned up in Central and South America, suggesting that he composed works for wealthy Spaniards with trading contacts in the New World.

- Resumen de acompañar la parte con la guitarra is a collection of compositions for the baroque guitar (a double-choired stringed instrument, considered the successor of the lute). One of the important aspects of Murcia's music is his interest in a wide range of music for guitar written by his contemporaries, including that of Spanish, French and Italian composers, and in popular dance forms that probably originated in Africa. Thus, his collections offer works of different styles grouped side by side, providing a rich and varied panorama of the Baroque repertoire for guitar.

- Miguel A. Núñez Delgado was born in 1988 in Puebla, Mexico. In 2010 has attended the famous international summer course at the Chigiana Music Academy in Siena Italy under the teaching of Oscar Ghiglia. His first approach to early instruments was thanks to Javier Hinojosa who was a pupil of Emilio Pujol.
