Spanish classical guitarist and composer José Fernando Macario Sors (Spanish) / Ferran Sor i Muntades (Catalan) born in Barcelona. Baptized February 14, 1778, died July 10, 1839. Friend of Dionisio Aguado.
As Sor's works were published in various countries, his name was translated, leading to variations in the spelling. Variations have included Fernando Sor, Joseph Fernando Macario Sors, Ferdinand Sor, and Ferdinando Sor and, in the last years, Ferran Sor even though there is no record of him using that name.
