opis

Isaac Albéniz’ most famous work is undoubtedly his suite Iberia, a landmark of Spanish culture and the perfect example of “Españolismo”, the fusing of folkloristic elements in romantic music. His other works, especially the Piano Sonatas, are rarely performed and that is a shame, as they are highly attractive works in classic/romantic style, full of wonderful melodies and highly idiomatic pianism (hardly surprising from such a great performing pianist as Albeniz was..). • This new recording presents the three complete piano sonatas, the numbers 3-4-5, as well as two beautiful Suites Anciennes, which contain baroque dance forms in romantic disguise. • A beautiful recording by young pianist Sebastian Taylor, who has Spanish roots in is ancestry. A student of the Royal College of Music in London he attended masterclasses by Menahem Pressler and Gary Graffman. His recording of Granados’ Goyescas received 5-star reviews in Fanfare, and American Record Guide. • The liner notes in the booklet were written by Walter E. Clark of the University of California.
