This mini-cycle of three songs for Voice and in this instance Guitar are ranked among the greatest of Granados’s musical achievements. The blend of beautiful melody formal integrity and control in the accompaniment creates a remarkable work. The songs set the poetry of Fernando Periquet a contemporary Spanish writer and generally concern the theme of romantic love. The texts are in Spanish untranslated.Spanish composer and pianist Enrique Granados was active in the decades around the turn of the last century. Granados’s life and work were cut tragically short when the passenger ship on which he was sailing was bombed by a German U-boat in the English Channel. Heis best known for his suite for Piano Goyescas which has been arranged for other instruments written in 1911 around the time that these songs were written.

The complete set of Twelve Spanish Dances transcribed and arranged for guitar. The transcriptions remain true to the original piano score but have been arranged in an idiomatic style for the guitar. The Spanish Romanticcompositional style of Enrique Granados comes through in these elegant dances. The simplistic and intimate nature of the melodies make them very accessible for the guitar. These arrangements are a fresh approach to the familiardances and an incentive to play some of the lesser known. A valuable addition to any guitar library. The edition includes a composer bio and program notes about each of the dances. Written in standard notation.
