Miguel Baselga - Isaac Alb?niz: the complete piano music [CD]

Please Note Not All Our New Items Are Shrink Wrapped.All items shipped within 3 working days of payment.The piano works by Isaac Albxe9niz range from indisputable masterpieces to ravishing salon music, the composer painting with bright Spanish colours as well as the hues of Classicism and Romanticism. On nine discs, originally released between 1998 and 2017 and gathered here, Miguel Baselga guides listeners through the music of his compatriot, earning acclaim from reviewers worldwide: x91pianism of the highest orderx92 (MusicWeb-International); x91berauschend agil und rhytmisch spannungsgeladenx92 (PIANONews); x91un pianista elegante y refinadox92 (CD Compact). Composed between December 1905 and January 1908, only a year before the death of Albxe9niz, Iberia is the crowning achievement of the composerx92s genius. Marking a high point of the post-romantic piano literature, this collection of x9112 nouvelles impressionsx92 was to serve as an endless source of inspiration for other composers throughout the twentieth century, admired by Debussy and Messiaen, who called it 'the marvel of the piano'. Baselgax92s exhaustive series places Iberia in its proper context, and with the assistance of Albxe9niz scholar Jacinto Torres, he has been able to access original editions and scores, including rarities such as the Marcha militar by a nine-year-old Albxe9niz and the composer's two scores for piano and orchestra. We are also given the opportunity to hear three improvisations, transcribed from a phonograph recording made by the composer in 1903.
