| Description: The Tango from "Espana" was initially written for piano by Isaac Albeniz. The composer was known for his conducting and his virtuoso piano playing. Graceful melodies, rich harmonies, and classic tango rhythms characterized this piece's understated elegance. This elegance and quiet beauty can be enhanced by an unhurried tempo and expressive melodic playing. All parts can be played in first position except the first violin which has a high C. |
