The song Cantares sets a poem by philosophical poet Ramon de Campoamor whose words describe a conflicted and unfulfilled love. The transcription from Piano to Guitar enhances the Iberian flavour of the Turina s song. There are virtuosic passages for the Guitar and quite demanding passages for the Soprano or high Voice.Joaquin Turina is often contrasted with Albéniz and Granados those two proponents of a Spanish national style. Turina strove to write music of a European standard in the conventional major forms and it is possible to hear the influence of Turina s years studying in Paris as well as his native Spain combined with the composer s own unique Voice.
