Iberia
on: April 11, 2007, 12:57:07 PM
Hi. I absolutely love this music. Is there any manageable piece from it? Which would you say are the easiest? I know they are way above my level, but I still want a go at an easier piece.
Albeniz's Leyenda is another piece I;ve been looking at - looks a lot easier. any other pieces like this?
Thanks,
tom
Working on: Schubert - Piano Sonata D.664, Ravel - Sonatine, Ginastera - Danzas Argentinas

Well, Evocacion, for starters (in more way than one, of course). 

El Puerto (hard to memorize, though) and Almeria.  Eminently playable with lots of work.

You probably know to bypass El Corpus Christi en Sevilla, Triana and El Albaicin for now.  Pretty thorny.
Current repertoire:  "Come to Jesus" (in whole-notes)
