Granados: Spanish Dance No. 2 (Oriental) - Alicia de Larrocha, 1961 - MHS 1518

The tragic death of Enrique Granados on 24th March, 1916, while returning to Spain, deprived the country of one of its most talented composers. The "Sussex", the ship he was traveling home on, was torpedoed by a German submarine between Folkestone and Dieppe, after the success in New York's Metropolitan Opera House of his opera Goyescas. In fact, Granados and Isaac Albéniz, leading champions of nationalist and post-romantic currents, were responsible for launching Spanish music forward towards horizons of unquestionable internationalism. Born in Lérida, on 27th June 1867, Granados died before his 49th birthday, at the height of his career. #aliciadelarrocha #piano #classicalmusic #spain

Wunderschöne und nuancierte Interpretation dieser ein bisschen melancholisch komponierten Klavierwerks im veränderlichen Tempo mit klarem doch elegantem Anschlag und mit sorgfältig kontrollierter Dynamik. Echt tiefempfunden!

It's just after 7 am and can still see the full moon through my window, it sounds oriental from Granados and the morning becomes even more mysterious. One of my favorite pieces David, thank you!

Kendisi boğulmaktan çok korkuyormuş bildiğim kadarıyla ve boğularak ölmüş (eşinin hayatını kurtarmak için)
