Classic Library Series - Granados: Goyescas & Danzas Españolas
Album · Classical · 2004
The Spanish composer Enrique Granados possessed an enviable piano technique—his Goyescas, named after various artworks by the late 18th and early 19th-century artist Goya, is his masterpiece, a rich, textured suite that makes colossal demands on its performers. None has recorded these vignettes better than the late Alicia de Larrocha, whose playing possesses an unparalleled rhythmic vitality, coupled with a fluidity that seduces with every note. The Danzas Españolas, 12 vividly coloured miniatures, are equally ravishing—and it’s hard to imagine them performed in any other way.
