en dix-neuf morceaux pour piano-Nineteen pieces for Piano solo by Spanish composer Enrique Granados. These pieces represent the best of his work and demonstrate his distinct Spanish background and style.

This Piano suite written in 1911 is Enrique Granados’ most famous work even considered his crowning creation. Goyescas consists of 6 movements inspired by the paintings of Francisco Goya although the Piano pieces have not been authoritatively associated with any particular paintings.The Piano writing of the Spanish composer and acclaimed pianist is highly ornamented and extremely difficult to master which is especially true for this grand piece. Just as many of his other Piano works this suit has been transcribed for the classical Guitar and has so become not only part of the standard Romantic Piano repertoire but is also extensivelyplayed by skilled guitarists.Goyescas displays a wide array of styles moods and techniques the best known movement from the suite Quejas ó la maja y el ruiseñor resembles a nocturne but is filled with intricate figuration and glittering bird-like trills while El amor y la muerte has a strong improvisational feel. Not only does this virtuoso arrangement of Spanish tunes provide a welcome challenge to advanced pianists it is also guaranteed to dazzle audiences everywhere!

A collection of seven short waltzes by Enrique Granados complete with detailed performance notes and a biography of the composer.

Enrique Granados (1867-1916) was a Spanish composer and pianist who studied in Barcelona and Paris and whose life was tragically cut short by the First World War. One of his earliest and most enduring works though rarely performed today is the collection of 8 Waltzes for Solo Piano Valses Poeticos (Op. 43 1887). While they were intended to be performed as a suite each Waltz can still be performed individually and will easily stand on its own merits. Throughout the suite Granados seamlessly weaves the lucid lyrical melodies with the lively dance tempo to create one of the true classics of the genre something no aspiring pianistshould be without.
