As you like. Manuel de Falla did not think of a guitar when composing his
ballet, so how to "copy" de Falla's orchestral effects on a guitar is
largely an individual choice. The most convenient thing to do a listening to
a recording of the ballet and then elaborating your own "guitar
orchestration", not only for what percussion effect is concerned, but for
all the piece. Feel free and get your inspiration DIRECTLY from the
orchestration that, as you will see, is a miracle of perfection: FEW
composers (in 20th century, only Puccini and Ravel in fact) have reached
such a level in their treatment instrument's colours.
