Enrique Granados: La Maja De Goya: Guitar Duet: Score

This Piano suite written in 1911 is Enrique Granados’ most famous work even considered his crowning creation. Goyescas consists of 6 movements inspired by the paintings of Francisco Goya although the Piano pieces have not been authoritatively associated with any particular paintings.The Piano writing of the Spanish composer and acclaimed pianist is highly ornamented and extremely difficult to master which is especially true for this grand piece. Just as many of his other Piano works this suit has been transcribed for the classical Guitar and has so become not only part of the standard Romantic Piano repertoire but is also extensivelyplayed by skilled guitarists.Goyescas displays a wide array of styles moods and techniques the best known movement from the suite Quejas ó la maja y el ruiseñor resembles a nocturne but is filled with intricate figuration and glittering bird-like trills while El amor y la muerte has a strong improvisational feel. Not only does this virtuoso arrangement of Spanish tunes provide a welcome challenge to advanced pianists it is also guaranteed to dazzle audiences everywhere!

Enrique Granados Quejas o la maja y el ruiseñor, N° 4 de Goyescas Editeur: Ullrich Scheideler Les «Complaintes ou la Jeune fille et le Rossignol» sont en quatrième position dans le cycle pour piano en six parties des «Goyescas» (1909?11). Son titre fait allusion au peintre espagnol Francisco de Goya dont les ?uvres ont inspiré Granados. Les «Goyescas» évoquent l?Espagne du temps de Goya, de la fin du XVIIIe siècle, galante et sensuelle mais aussi mélancolique et sombre. Le thème est celui de la vie de jeunes amants. Les «Quejas» en sont un moment clé, où la jalousie naissante porte à des plaintes auxquelles participe le rossignol. La Maison Henle offre désormais, en tant qu?édition Urtext séparée, cette page qui, par son intensité expressive, constitue le point culminant du cycle.
