Enrique Granados: Andaluza n°5 des Danzas Espanolas - Cello/Piano: Cello

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. The nationalist style which dominated his early output is often seen to be epitomised by the 1890 work 12 Danza Española a collection of Spanish dances originally for the solo Piano. Andaluza is No. 5 from 12 Danza Española and has been transcribed here for Voice with Guitar by the Basque arranger Jose De Azpiazu (1912-1986) setting a poem by Luis Munoz Llorente.

Enrique Granados
Andaluza · Danza española n° 5

Rolf Koenen (Doigtés)
Parmi les ?uvres de piano du début de la vie du compositeur espagnol, les douze Danzas españolas parues en 1890-1895 marquent une étape importante de son développement. Elles se situent dans la tradition des pièces de caractère d?un Chopin ou d?un Schumann, tout en présentant néanmoins un coloris individuel marqué, grâce à l?emprunt de danses en provenance de toute l?Espagne. Cela vaut également pour la cinquième danse, qui, avec sa mélodie accrocheuse, quelque peu nostalgique, devint rapidement populaire. Mieux qu?aucune autre pièce, «Andaluza» témoigne de nos représentations de la musique du sud de l?Espagne - même si elle n?a reçu ce titre qu?à titre posthume. / Partitions classique / Piano - instruments à clavier / Piano / HENLE VERLAG
