INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION
In Spain, during the twentieth-century, we find several
currents that were developed simultaneously in Europe.
Deepen more with Nationalism. Authors:
o Enrique Granados
o Isaac Albéniz
NATIONALISMNATIONALISM
Similar materials are used in folk
music besides melodies, harmonies
and rhythms inspired by this.
And we found some authors as
Manuel de Falla and Joaquín Turina.
Manuel de Falla Danza del molinero – Dance of the Miller
CURRENTS THAT COEXIST WITH CURRENTS THAT COEXIST WITH
NATIONALISMNATIONALISM Neo-romanticism: new musical forms, sounds and textures were
explored. It’s opposed to the earlier times because of its creative
freedom.
Neoclassicism: little instrumental groups are reused, especially the
chamber ones. They also utilize lots of contrapuntal qualities and they
usually refuse expressing feelings.
Vanguardism: they want to innovate in the artistic production,
using different “isms”.
Dodecaphonism: it is used a new composition technique, which
includes the 12 notes in the chromatic scale used by the same way.
Isaac AlbénizIsaac Albéniz
He was born in Spain in 1860 and he
died in France in 1909.
Great composer and pianist.
He wrote for different instruments,
as well as orchestral and chamber
music plays.
Granada and Asturias, pieces that we
are going to perform, belong to the
Spanish Suite.
Rumores de la Caleta:
Spanish SuiteSpanish Suite It consists of excerpts that were written in 1886 and that in 1887 were
clustered in honour of the Spanish Queen.
It includes: Granada, Cataluña, Sevilla and Cuba. The other ones, Cádiz,
Asturias, Aragón and Castilla, were published in later editions.
Granada: is a calm and sensual serenade that shows a happy principal
theme which contrasts the next theme with a mysterious and melancholy
tone.
Asturias: is the most popular one and, although is named after the
Cantabrian region, it evokes Andalusian air.
Enrique GranadosEnrique Granados

pianist.
His most important piano play was
