About This Item
Spanish Classics series. This is the ninth and final volume in the Albéniz pano music series. The focus here is on Albéniz's compositional evolution and his use of inspired folk-based melodies, Hispanic nostalgia and vivid dance rhythms, encapsulated by the intoxicating Chants d'Espagne.
