The Unión Musical Española and Unión Musical Ediciones have continually fostered the development of Spanish music. They have published works by all the major 20th-century Spanish composers, Graciano Tarragó being a very notable among these. This is the first volume of popular songs from around Spain and contains 15 terrific pieces set for Guitar Voice and Guitar or Voice and Piano with both options included here.

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.

für hohe und mittlere Singstimme -und zwei Gitarren--Great songs originally with b.c.; here in an unconventional instrumentation probably arranged by a German guitar editor (around 1810).

The song Cantares sets a poem by philosophical poet Ramon de Campoamor whose words describe a conflicted and unfulfilled love. The transcription from Piano to Guitar enhances the Iberian flavour of the Turina?s song. There are virtuosic passages for the Guitar and quite demanding passages for the Soprano or high Voice.Joaquin Turina is often contrasted with Albéniz and Granados those two proponents of a Spanish national style. 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.

Par STEPHENSON JOSEPHINE. From a short French poem by Antoine Thiollier, Stephenson uses an Oulipian process to amalgamate the words with similar sounding English words to gradually abstract the meaning behind them; the words seemingly melt into musical sounds. The hypnotic nature of the guitar writing allows this to happen almost imperceptibly with long phrases of sustained emotional atmosphere rising and falling quite naturally before the music appears to gently evaporate at the close. The way in which the two languages merge is a touching reflection of the fact that Stephenson and (Héloïse) Werner, friends since childhood in Paris, both moved to the UK to study and there continued their long friendship.
