Ernesto Lecuona Piano Music: 44 Pieces by Cuba's Greatest Composer

Beautiful compositions. One just savors the sounds. What a wonderful contribution to this world.

レクオーナの楽譜はオレンジ色のアンダルシア組曲のみ持っていたのですが、ピアノ曲全集を聴いて他の曲の楽譜も見てみたくなり購入しました。４４piecesとありますが、実際は５５曲入っています。間違ってるのか？と思い数えなおしましたが５５曲でした（爆）本の装丁や紙質も日本国内の楽譜と遜色ありません。レクオーナ全集のワルツ以外はほとんど入っていてこの値段は大変お買い得と思いました。

genial recopilación, soy gran fan de lecuona

Snap this album up while stocks last !237 beautifully presented pages of Cuban-Spanish piano pieces which you won't find anywhere else.Titles include : Danzas Afro-Cubanas, Danzas Cubanas, 19th century Cuban Dances, Rapsodia Negra, and a suite of pieces, 'Andalucia'. Sometimes fiery, often wistful , always enchanting.Be warned though. This is NOT the music of the modern Afro-Caribbean Cuba, of hot spicy Salsa Mambos, of the rhythm of the clave, tumbao and cascares. This is old school, colonial Spanish music, of the culture that built 19th century Havana. It looks homewards to the old country, to southern Spain. If you love Albeniz and Granados,and Turina and de Falla ,you'll love this stuff .Be warned though (again) . It's NOT easy stuff, it's quite a challenge. You'll need to be at least Grade 5 -6 before you can even start getting your hands around it. But worth a place on the shelf of every serious pianist who loves Spanish music.

all ok
