FZ Compositions
This is an attempt to do a chronological list of FZ compositions.
The dates are taken from interviews, articles, liner notes, books, programs, the first known
recording, the first known performance of the piece, copyright records, the first mention of it, or just
an educated guess. Some compositions have been grouped, some others have been
divided. Guitar solos, improvisations and anthropological field recordings haven't
been listed except in some special cases. The names between square brackets
come not from any official source, but from tape collectors, scholars, or even
bootleggers. Any correction, addition, suggestion or comment is welcome. --Román
