Granados: Orchestral Works, Vol. 2
) | Label: NAXOS Catalog: 8573264 Format: CD COMA-ALABERT CARRION LIEDER CAMERA BARCELONA SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA GONZALEZRevered as one of the greatest Spanish composers for the piano, Enrique Granados also wrote a wide-ranging body of orchestral music. His one-act opera Goyescas contains an intensely lyrical Intermezzo that is his most popular work and one of the best-loved pieces in all Spanish music. The gypsy-tinged orientalism of Danza de los ojos verdes and Danza gitana contrast with the somber and epic La nit del mort and the ambitious large-scale symphonic poem Dante, one of the most significant Spanish orchestral works of its time. This is the second in a series commemorating the centenary of Granados’ death.  Price: $19.98 |
