BTD 1867 Enrique Granados. Several of his piano works are played on classical guitar. I have already recorded his Vals Poeticos & La Maja de Goya etc, and when I heard Zapateado I thought it could work on guitar too. After the experience of working with Spanish dancer Maria Vega Dancer I recorded this piece on the EP, "One Day in November." #Granados #BornThisDay #piano #guitar | Xuefei Yang

Enrique Granados’ 12 Danzas españolas are written with elegance and finesse, and represent his most obviously ‘nationalist’ music. The themes are original, although a connection with popular tradition may be evident. The popular inspiration is, however, dressed in completely romantic musical language. The Danza No. 8, ‘Sardana’, offers a pleasing rhythmic swing. Listen to this performance of Rafael Ferrer’s orchestration, by the Barcelona Symphony and Catalonia National Orchestra under Salvador
