About this product
GRANADOS, E. Orchestral Works, Vol. 1 - Suite sobre cantos gallegos / Torrijos (Barcelona Symphony and Catalonia National Orchestra, Gonzalez) - Although he is best known as the composer of some of the greatest masterpieces of Spanish piano music, Enrique Granados also wrote a much less well-known sequence of orchestral music. The cinematic Marcha de los vencidos evokes the painful trudging of 'the defeated' in an unspecified battle, while the incidental music for the play Torrijos demonstrates Granados's talent for lyrical writing and his love of the stage. The ambitious Suite sobre cantos gallegos uses Galician folk melodies and dance rhythms to reflect the landscapes of the region. This is the first recording in a series marking the centenary of Granados's death.

![Stockhausen / Tudor - Historic First of the Klavierstucke I-Viii & Xi - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/63d8facc-6960-4895-a3bd-ed34642e4365.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
Stockhausen calls his piano pieces his InchdrawingsInch, the pieces in which he sketches out ideas without the added color complexity of instrumental timbres. More significantly, in these early pieces you can hear a composer grappling with the challenge of electronic sound, looking for Inchenvelope curvesInch that will allow the old medium to compete with the new. As played by David Tudor in this historic recording, the piano gives it's answer to the synthesizer. David Tudor is without question one of the premier figures in the performance of new music since the middle of this century. As a pianist, Tudor gave highly acclaimed first performances of works by contemporary composers Pierre Boulez, Earle Brown, Sylvano Bussotti, John Cage, Morton Feldman, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Christian Wolff, Stephan Wolpe, and La Monte Young, among others. As a composer, Tudor chose specific electronic components and their interconnections to define both composition and performance drawing upon resources that were both flexible and complex.

If you have two loves - swing and Paris - if you want to dance to the rhythm of the beguine; if you love not only Beethoven but also Cole Porter, then go and visit Frivol's Club! The ensemble Les Frivolités Parisiennes is a master in the art of blending musical genres. So, B Records invites you to join in and enjoy this tumultuous program which will immerse you in the vibrant atmosphere of the Roaring Twenties. Established in 2012 by the musicians Benjamin El Arbi and Mathieu Franot, Les Frivolités Parisiennes was created out of a desire to recover French Light Music of the 19th and 20th centuries, comic opera, opera buffa and musical comedy. With this in mind, the company annually produces new productions or revivals, of which a number have been recorded by Naxos. The chamber orchestra of Les Frivolités Parisiennes, the spiritual heir to the orchestra of the Opéra-Comique that was disbanded in the 1960s, can comprise from 14 to 40 players according to a work's requirements.
