Ilias Xanthopoulos (1923–2005) was a 20th-century Greek composer. His name is recorded in the literature on guitar music alongside his compositions for guitar. In his 'Guide to the Guitarist’s Modern and Contemporary Repertoire', Vincenzo Pocci lists a 'Prelude' by Xanthopoulos from 1968, thereby highlighting his contribution to the guitar repertoire. The Sonata for Two Guitars is documented as a work for guitar duo. The instrumentation for two guitars classifies the work as part of the chamber music repertoire for guitar, making it an interesting addition to the repertoire for guitar duo. It offers performers the opportunity to engage with a less frequently documented area of 20th-century guitar music.
