This is a list of compositions by the Cuban composer and guitarist Leo Brouwer. Given the prominence of the instrument in Brouwer's oeuvre, his works for guitar solo, guitar ensembles, as well as guitar concertos, are all placed in a separate category. However, pieces which include guitar as part of a mixed ensemble, and ones for guitar and tape, are placed into the chamber music category.

Luis de los Cobos Almaraz was a Spanish composer. In 1944, he was briefly jailed for taking part in protests against the Francoist government, and after he finished his studies in 1949 he couldn't find a job since he lacked the certificate of adherence to the Spanish State, so he went to exile, settling in Geneva after studying orchestral conducting under Bernardo Molinari in Rome and Eugène Bigot in Paris. Like Xavier Montsalvatge and Manuel Castillo he has been defined as a missing link in the postwar Spanish music, as he was influenced by Shostakovichian modernism while the Spanish scene evolved from nationalism to the Darmstadt avantgarde through his contemporaries of the 1951 Generation. He composed four operas, two symphonies, four concertos and six string quartets.
