This album invites you to travel from Spain to South America in the company of the greatest composers the countries of the region have produced: next to Spanish folk songs reshaped by Falla, compositions by Casals, Granados, Montsalvatge, and the beloved Ária from the Bachiana brasileira by Brazil's Villa-Lobos, an Argentine tango by Piazzolla is paired with its Spanish counterpart by Albéniz (though his is in the form of a habanera). A wide-ranging programme which brings together two virtuoso soloists.
Astor PIAZZOLLA / Le Grand Tango
Manuel de FALLA / Siete canciones populares españolas
Xavier MONTSALVATGE / Cinco canciones negras
And other pieces by Heitor Villa-Lobos, Pablo Casals, Enrique Granados, Isaac Albéniz
