-Records published in 2018In 2018 Miguel Angel González Aguado released three new instrumental records: Piensa que lo lograrás which is the single of his album Fuerza de Voluntad (also published that year) and one more single Paseando por Madrid. All his records are instrumental and entirely composed by him.
"Piensa que lo lograrás" is for violins 1st and 2nd, violas, cellos and double basses 1st and 2nd. It's available as single and also as track number 7 of the album Fuerza de Voluntad. In this album there are 10 compositions, the guitar continues being the main instrument (all kinds: classical, electric and acoustic) although there is a great instrument diversity including violin, viola, cello, double bass, piano and bass guitars of 4 and 5 strings. For example "En la Gruta" is for 2 electric guitars, a classical, a bass and a double bass, "Variámonas" is for violin and piano and "Con Esfuerzo" for one cello and a five strings acoustic bass guitar.
"Paseando por Madrid" is for 1st and 2nd violins, violas, cellos, 1st and 2nd double basses and a guitar. It's only available as single, it's not included in the album "Fuerza de Voluntad", contrary to "Piensa que lo lograrás".
Till now "Con Esfuerzo" from the album "Fuerza de Voluntad" was his longest composition so far recorded with 7:38 minutes duration but now is "Está Contigo en tu Soledad" from his new album "Confía en Mí" that lasts 11:33 min and where you can also find his third longest composition "Agradecer es Confiar" with a duration of 6:42 minutes. Therefore his single "Piensa que lo lograrás" (6:37 min) is now the fourth and "En la Gruta" (6:11) also from his last album "Fuerza de Voluntad" his fifth longest composition so far recorded.

"Tormenta" is also one of his longest compositions, it lasts 5:39 minutes as well as "El lenguaje de los animales" of 5:41 minutes duration.
But the short ones are also interesting like "Romanza" (1:13 min), "El Amanecer" (1:39), "Rondó sin Costumbres" (1:24),...
