Isaac Albeniz : Album for Piano

Isaac Albeniz (1860-1909) began his musical life as a piano prodigy in Barcelona at the age of four and it is as a prolific composer of solo works for the pianoforte that we must celebrate him most. This Dover edition presents two of Albeniz' best known works in authoritative editions: the piano suite Iberia generally considered to be his masterpiece; and the album leaves Espana which contain the 'Tango' his most popular individual work. Iberia is a collection of twelve musical scenes of Spanish life principally Andalusian written between 1906 and 1909. Its brilliant and complex character is suffused with the rhythms and harmonies of Spanish popular music to which Albenizturned for inspiration in the last years of his life. Espana an earlier work first published in 1890 is made up of six piano pieces that subtly reflect the influences of the piano literature of the 19th century-salon and like Iberia the harmony and style of Impressionism which Albeniz undeniably helped to establish.

Pavana Capricho is one of the last pieces from Isaac Albeniz’s early period before he turned to Spanish influences a style that would characterise the rest of his compositions. In this earlier period Albeniz who was a child prodigy on the Piano composed ‘salon style’ music and experimented with traditional styles in the manner of Rameau Bach Beethoven Chopin and Liszt. His shift towards Spanish music occurred after meeting the teacher and composer Felipe Pedrell a leading figure in the development of nationalist Spanish music.Pavana-Capricho is graceful and light-hearted at the same time. Theplayfulness that arises from the alternating moods is best achieved when the proper technique and articulation is applied. Arranged for the solo Piano and with a performance time of ca. 3:30 this piece of Romantic solo music is a perfect addition to any concert programme.

Isaac Albeniz's España Op.165 features six Piano compositions from 1890 by this renowned Spanish pianist and composer. Featuring Preludio Tango Malagueña Serenata Capricho Catalan and Zortzico.

El Puerto from 'Iberia' - 12 nouvelles 'impressions' en quatre cahiers by I. Albeniz for the piano.

Par ALBENIZ ISAAC. As one of the leaders in the renaissance of Spanish music at the turn of the twentieth century, Isaac Albéniz was regarded as the founder of the Spanish 'national school.' Always fascinated with the music of Andalucia, Albeniz composed numerous small but beautifully performed portraits of his native Spain. These brightly colored piano pictures of his native land are sufficient reason for him to be called 'the Liszt of Spanish music.' Six pieces or 'pages from an album' from his opus 165 'España' appear in this volume for solo guitar, as they have been transcribed and arranged by John Griggs in notation only. / Niveau : Intermédiaire à Avancé / Classic - Solos / Répertoire / Guitare Classique et Fingerpick
