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 Albenizturned 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.

Isaac Albeniz's España Op.165 features six Piano compositions from 1890 by this renowned Spanish pianist and composer. Featuring Preludio Tango Malagueña Serenata Capricho Catalan and Zortzico.

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.

«?Veni, vidi, vici?: Señor Albéniz aurait toutes les raisons d?inscrire ces mots sur son blason!» C?est ainsi que la presse londonienne commenta la marche triomphale de l?Espagnol en Angleterre entre 1889 et 1893.

C?est précisément sur les Îles Britanniques qu?il se consacra plus intensivement à des sujets en rapport avec sa patrie, composant entre autres España (HN 857).

Aussi étonnant que cela puisse paraître, Albéniz glissa dans cet hommage à la Péninsule ibérique un tango revêtant l?habit d?une habanera cubaine.

Derrière cette charade multiculturelle se cache l?une des oeuvres les plus populaires d?Albéniz, remplie d?une douce nostalgie des pays exotiques. Facile d?exécution, cette oeuvre est désormais disponible en édition séparée. / Classique / Partition / Agrafé /
