The Spanish composer and pianist Isaac Albeniz (1860-1909) was one of the leading members of the Nationalist school that dominated Spanish music at the turn of the last century. One of his best known works is the Suite Espanola (Op.47); a collection of works for solo Piano inspired by different regions and musical cultures of Spain first published in 1887. Castilla was included after his death by a publisher and taken from an earlier work. It is a piece for solo Piano in the Seguidilla style which traces its origins to a Castilian folk dance.

Description 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 Albeniz turned 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.

The Spanish composer and pianist Isaac Albeniz (1860-1909) was one of the leading members of the Nationalist school that dominated Spanish music at the turn of the last century. One of his better known works is Espana (Op. 165) a suite of six pieces for solo Piano which he composed in 1890. The third of these was Malaguena which draws heavily on Andalusian music and culture particularly from the city of Malaga. It is presented here in a high-quality glossy cover and would make the perfect gift for any pianist interested in Spanish music.

Eight pieces in one 'Spanish Suite' from Spanish pianist and composer Isaac Albeniz who was born in 1860 and as a child prodigy gave his first public concert on the piano at the tender age of 4. At the beginning of the 1880s he met the musicologist Felipe Pedrell who collected traditional songs and this awakened in the young Albeniz a life-long passion for Spanish traditional music. Edited by Juan Salvat.
