ALBÉNIZ, ISAAC . Iberia - 4me Cahier - Malaga, Jerez, Eritaña - Piano seul.
Éditions Salabert, 1908..Paperback. Iberia is a suite for piano composed between 1905 and 1909 by the Spanish composer Isaac Albéniz. It comprises four books of three pieces each; a complete performance lasts about an hour and a half. (Book 4: Málaga (B-flat minor - B-flat major); Jerez (A minor (arguably E Phrygian) - E major); Eritaña (E-flat major)) It is Albéniz's masterpiece and his best-known work, highly praised by Claude Debussy and Olivier Messiaen, who said: “Iberia is the wonder for the piano; it is perhaps on the highest place among the more brilliant pieces for the king of the instruments”. Stylistically, this suite falls squarely in the school of Impressionism, especially in its musical evocations of Spain. Technically, Iberia is one of the most difficult pieces in piano literature, requiring immense strength from its interpreters and flexible hands. CLEAN! No marks noted. Light wear and sunning on cover. Small tear on back cover. Very Good. No DJ as Issued.
