Title:
Suite española



Details:
The Suite espaªola written by the piano virtuoso and composer Isaac AlbTniz is one of the most outstanding works in the history of Spanish music. AlbTniz invites the listener to join him on a musical journey through eight great Spanish cities each steeped in tradition investing each scene with local colouring as an homage. AlbTniz made full use of musical folk idioms combined with dazzling virtuosity in many of his other works too and deeply impressed Debussy and Ravel as is testified by their own compositions. Originally conceived for the piano the Suite has been arranged for large orchestra by Rafael Frnhbeck de Burgos who makes the most of the orchestra's tonal palette to underline the expressivity of the music. The final movement (Cuba) is replaced by Cordoba a piano piece from AlbTniz's Cantos de Espaªa op. 132 also arranged by

Label: Decca
