La mà de Guido
La mà de Guido is a Catalan music publishing house in Barcelona Spain founded in 1986 by the composer and musicologist Llorenç Balsach (b. 1953).[1]
The name La Mà de Guido comes from the Catalan translation of the Guidonian hand.[2]
The primary notability of La Mà de Guido is in the publishing of music scores and editions for Catalan composers, living and dead.[3][4] The music publishing house also owns a recording label, again primarily reviving the works of Catalan composers, but also recordings by Catalan musicians of other Iberian music, and archive historical recordings.[5][6] The label also distributes the Ars Harmonica label.
