Andaluza-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 Espanola a collection of Spanish dances for the solo Piano. Andaluza is No. 5 from 12 Danza Espanola and is one of just a few of these rarely-performed Piano pieces which can be found individually. This high quality edition comes in a marbled cover and would be a perfect gift for any pianist interested in Spanish music.

The Danzas Fantasticas Fantastical Dances of Joaquin Turina are the composer?s best known work originally scored for Piano but Orchestrated by the composer and performed first in 1920 in their Orchestrated version. The work is full of exalted romantic melodies Iberian flourishes and exciting instrumental writing. The work quotes passages from the novel La Org a (The Orgy) by José Más at the beginning of each of the three movements. The movements are Exaltación a jota dance in 3/8 Ensueño (Dream) a zortziko in 5/8 and Org a a farruca all regional dances of Spain.Joaquin Turina is often contrasted with Albéniz and Granados those two proponents of a Spanish nationalstyle. Turina strove to write music of a European standard in the conventional major forms and it is possible to hear the influence of Turina?s years studying in Paris as well as his native Spain combined with the composer?s own unique Voice.
