Alison Gill - Goyescas by Granados

Goyescas Suite - Granados 

Inspired by the paintings of Goya, Goyescas is considered to be the crowning glory of piano works by a Spanish composer. Images of Spanish life in Goya's time are brought to mind, both gallant and romantic but also melancholic and dark.

2. Coloquio en la reja (Conversation at the Window)

3. El fandango de candil (Fandango by Candlelight)
